In the ordinary Female Schools of the country, whers
one teacher is employed, 1t is impossible, for want of
time, for the teacher to devote that constant, personal at.
tention that ia needed. In such schools, the little pupil in
music is necessarily sent to the piano to learn and prac.
lice her music without assistance. Should there be but
ten scholars, and a half hour only devoted by each to
music, the TEACHER being present, five hours of the teach.
er's time will be consumed, and bu, little left for the In.
struction in other studies. To this may be traced many
of the complaints OF Female schools.
The great object of my School isto secure the constant,
personal attention Of the Teachers to every Department.
For this purpose. two teachers are employed. One to ut.
tend 10 the ordinary English Branches. including Mathc.
mates and the Sciences, and the other to Music. French,
and Ornamental branches. Miss 4. T. SCOTT will again
have charge of the first Department BY her fidelity and
her a~tniability OF character. che secures the love OF all
her pupils; and from my own examinations, know that
those under her instruction progress with extraordinary
rapidity and proficiency
In the other Department, embracing Music, French, and
the Ornamental Branches, Miss IRENE kSAupF is engage
cd, n lady educsted with great care. As = teacher,
che has given the highest satisfaction to her employer and
putrors. All that hear Of her ia exceedingly compli.
mcntary. Observe, that in Music the Young Ladies take
their Lessons invariably in the presence of the Instructor,
and then retire to another Piano to practice.
| frequently examine the young ladies, especially on
such branches as are generally in Female Schools, very
imprrfcctly learned. When this ia to take place ia not
generally known by them. The consequence 10 that they
are always prepared.
In closing, feel it due TO the Young Ladies who have
attended this School, to express my grateful appreciation
of their uniform kindness to each other, and to every
member of my family. Their extraordinary decorum,
their handsome observance of those social proprieties
which contribute so much TO the ornament of female So
cicty, their diligent application TO their duties, and their
proficiency ,tmcrit more than ordinary praise.

suitable conveyance will be provided.
