FELIclANA HIGH School, Jackson, La
Mr.. Edtt0y-Through an invita-.
ton from the Professors of this Insti.
tuition, we attended an examination Of
the pupils Of this school, which took
place on Monday aud Tuesday, the
18th and 18th inst. This school is
select and private in its character,
numbering from 80 to 40 students,
and has been in operation for four
years, sustaining the highest reputa-
ton for what it processes to be. The
examination Of the various classes in
Mathematics, Latin and Greek, besides
those in English Literature, gave
much credit to the pupils, and reflect
ted the highest honors on the teachers,
giving evidence that themost thorough
instruction, is here impaired. This
school is under the direction of Pro-
fessors Magruder and Potter, who
were for long time connected with
Centenary College, where they acquir-
ed the highest reputation as teachers
and disciplinarians, and commends it.
self to all who have sons to educate.
1t is male school with ample accom-
modations. where no pains are spared
to render thorough and practicable
education, but time and space forbids
further particulars Of this school, and
we pass to notice other examinations
now going on, for we are now in
the literary Emporium of the South.
The examination of the Feliciapa In
stitutc of Young Ladies, is now going
on. We have had the pleasure Of
attending the examination of several
classes in this institute, and must say
that they excel any examinations that
we ever attended. These examina-
tons will continue through the week
when the present session will close
with exercises in composition, music

mire in others what others admire in
