erly and constantly used, chemistry can be little
else than a mass of misty and confused dogmas
rs repulsivc as useless.
Hence. every means of illustration, which can
be rendered available in the length of time devoted
to this subject, has been obtained. Among the
chemical apparatus in daily use in recitat'Uns or
lectures, will be furnaces, crtci6tes, r%ctorts, mattresses
%receireys. g%asometers. Thermometers, barometer, con
dHctomcicr, pyrometer, cotopite, tre-Syrin5e, -Nnce's
steam digeStey, pneumatic cistcTHS, hydro-oTygeh
Uoc.pipes, steam bombs, steam a7tis. etc, etc
Also every form of simple and compound sub
stapcc, Of my interest and Importance.
AHdlticat Chemistry. "A full set Of analytical
apparatus has been obtained with all the requi-
site tests for both qualitative and quaint
tatiye analysis. After q sufficient preparatory
course in manipulations for the purpose of acquir-
ing facility and certainty in the use of apparatus
and tests, the pupil. is expected to he able to anal
we soils, and determine the ingredients and names
Of minerals.
Natural PhiloSOpky.--In connection with a sys-
tcmatic course of instruction in Natural Philuso-
ply, there will be brought into frequent use for
illustration, the A%IR.PrMP, with every variety OF
accompanying apparatus, including recetreIS, bell
glasses, hand glass, Uadder glass, Bursting squares,
NdgdeLMg hem,Spheres, bell in racH0, ARTIFICIAL foHn
tain, gIiaed and Feather experiment, rerOtriHy jet,
BarAer's mill. philosophical rater hammer, condenser
air %chdDiJc, air gUi. barometer, de-, dc.
Also, for FRIcTfeNM ELECTRICITY; an Is inch
plate electrical machine, with electrometers, discharg-
cTS, bells, sportsman and birds, dancing .Jiyues,
poirder bOmb, HURder house, Insulating stool, LeydcH
jdlS, jar battery: for CHEMICAL ELFcrRCITY; gdt
raHic batteries, electro mGgHetS, dTndt,UcS, hettceS,

mdchinc, giving powerful shocks and anal y2ing
water reciprocating engine, poll changers, n splcn-
did electromagnetic piaHct0rium, on which the
planets, primary and secondary, are kept in motion
by electricity.
For Optics, a variety of lenses and mirrors, a
dissccting model Eye, by which all the parts are
beautifully and clearly shown, also microscopes,
simple and compound, n prism and multiplying
glass, pOlariscope, etc, etc.
Physioiogy.-This subject will he Illustrated by
Il beautiful and expensive French Manikin and
skeleton, a variety Of anatomical preparations and
charts also, by n great variety of preparations OF
the several tissues, glands, and other organs, for
examination under the microscope.
This compound Microscope has a magnifying
power equal to 1850 diamcters, or 100000 sur
faces, and is furnished with every variety of appen-
dagc for elaborate examination, for the minute
measurement to the twenty-thUIsandth part of un
' inclr, for accurate delineation of objects ON paper,
: as they appear when magnihed.
@ With such aids, the pupil will be enabled to
l. gain something like an adequate conception Of the
= wonderful complexitv and beautiful adaptation of
the numerous parts exhibited in the various organs
j. Of the human system.
Gcoiogy.-this. pleasing and POI uiar Science will
l. be illustrated by charts, and II valuable collection
y of rare and beautiful specimens, in addition to
# the more common ana useful minerals and rocks.
r B~OtdUY.-Natural specimens of flowers and
i plants will be made use Of to illustrate this delight
;. lul study, The Microscope will he likewise bro't
n into reuuisition, for the examination of the minute
organism of the cryptogamous plants, as well as
> the more delicate tissues of all plants.
y Gcogyuphy.-A set of PcltOn's outline Maps,
2 together with Globes, Il Tellurian and Planetarium
will meet The various demands of this Science.
Physical Geography, as well as Mathematical and
Civil, will receive due attention. In this branch,
: as III some others, no particular text book will be
used, but a variety Of reft renee books is deemed
desirable to enlarge the sphere OF inaairy, and
augment the acquisition of knowledge.
: MATHEMATICs.-The course of Mathematics is
h Designed to be thorough, and sufficiently extended
!. to meet the utmost demands of all business opera
!. tons. rs Bookkeeping, Surveying, Engineering
3 and Designing. 1t comprehends Algebra, Gcome-
try, TriSonometry, Comic Sections, Lights and
t Shadows, and Calculus.
f DRAwiSG FROM NATuRE.-Classes will be formed
in this very useful branch, in which pupils take
e their lessons from real objects, rather than from
y other drawings. 1t has be N demonstrated by n
sufficient number of classes that this method is
: entirely superior in every point of view. to the
$ common method of drawing and shading from pic
g lures. Students in one term may acquire such Il
l. use Of tho pencil and such a knowledge Of the art
of Perspective as will enable them to Sketch from
# Nature with beauty and fidelity.
| MUSC.-A most accomplished Teacher of Instru-
= mental Music has been secured who will give les
sons on the Piano, Organ or Melodian as may be
d desired. Vocal music will also bo taught as one of
!. the common branches.
q Literary Department. -LANGUAGEs.-The Latin
and Greek Languages will be pursued, as far as a
g thorough preparation for the highest grade of col
leges demands. The application of tiese languages
h in the formation of the English will constantly be
p kept in view, as we'll as their use in the technicali-
n ties of the various Sciences. German will be
taught by an experienced Teacher, who has devoted
F.: several years to the subject,
a, E\GIISU and yorip1 py.
crcises in Composition will be inseparably connec-
@ led with every branch, in every department in the
f. School, in which Orthography, Etymology and Syn.
tax will be objects of unremittinS attention.
ii Weekly exercises. also, of Il more extended form
Ie will be required of every member of the School
These will undergo rigid and faithful criticism, il
which perspicuity, prupriety, force and elegance o
is expression will be kept in view.
p a observation-disclosures weekly exercises in Dec
d lamation will be sustained, which will be engaged
in with great INTEREST," by both sexes, though vol
UNFAIRLY by all. The participation of the ladies
n in this exercise is found to contribute greatly to its
d utility. BY this means; more than any other, can
If the objects of Defamation, visl ease of posture,
n grace of movement dignity of mien, force and ele-
gance of delivery, be obtained.
i DAILY PAPER.-A Daily Paper will be prepared
j. by the ladies and gentlemen, alternately, and read
r each morning, at the opening exercises. 1t has
i been found to exert a salutary influence, in promo
ting good order and diligent application to study
n as well as to be q most effectual means of improy
d ing those who engage as editors, or contributors, in
t every variety of compositions
GOVERNMENT AND ARRASGEMENTs.-The Rule,
and Regulations of the School will be established
l. and enforced by the pupils, on the republican prin
ciple that the majority rules. The degree Of order
l. propriety anG ~assiduity thus attainable by the stu
dents; is generally such that it has been
e felt and acknowledged, that the usages of a School
conducted on this plan exert a very healthful influ-
ence on the habits of the people among whom it
was located.
A A well regulated use of time, a high degree of
mental discipline, a full opportunity for vigorous
+ physical development, a rigid ~propriety in deport-
IS ment and language, a cheerful and prompt
e compliance with the established regulations,
an entire exemption from all forms of i'm
