CLINTON MALE ACADEMY.

JllE exercises of this Institution will be resumed
L on the first Monday in October. 1856. in the
building situated West the North West corner of the
public square. In the town of Clinton. La.
The Course Of Study will be liberal and extensive.
but not volnmnous. us the object is not to peruse
multiplicity of books in the short time usually alot-
td To educaton; but to present the pupil with such
authors as most thoroughly incucate practical ed
ncalion. Aware that very material injury has been
done to education in the South by many Of the cur
rent schoobooks of the day. protesting to teach so
much with little labor on the part of teacher and
pupil the Principal has used great in the selcc.
tion OF his texts, knowing that what have gained
in facility, by the of these books we have lost in
thoroughne,s. 1t requires industry and experience
on the part OF the teacher and unwearicd appca-
ton on the part OF the pupil to effect good scholar
ship;
and most studionsy avoids all those novel abrdge-
ments in system by which the pupil is promised q
rapid. but not thorough progress. Great care will
be taken to avoid any thing like rote; also to adapt
the studies to the capacities and destination of the
pupil. Each recitation will be attended with analy-
sys and explanations; and in no case will pupil be
allowed to leave n text before evincing thorough
knowledge OF its subject. No games or regular ex-
ercises will be imposed, as experience shows that
pleasure lOoses its zest ii becomes duty;
but the pupils, as the grounds are spacious will be
allowed to enjoy such amlisements as compOrt with
health, manliness and pr0pricty.
1he Gorernfnnn will lie kind and humane yet rigid
ly and impartially enforced. Punslments will be
inflicted in no case where ambition can be superin-
duccd: To elicit which. a monthly report OF the
standing and scholarship of each pupil will be sent
to parents and guardians.
Ihe number of pupils will be limited. The tuitiOns
Will be three four and five dollars per month"; paya-
BILE in advance. and no pupil can enter for d less
period than a session of five months. Each pupil
will be expected to furnish his own chair 1t is nee
cssary that pupils enter at the commencement of the
