F1S MAZE COLLEGE,.

Ii Fall Session will commence on Thursday,
the 29th of July. 1853. Pupils will be receiyedas
any time, and charged only from, the time of en-
tering. No effort will be omitted to. promote the
mental and moral culture of those entrusted to
our care. Our College IS a beautiful edifce, we'll
adapted to the purpose. and car accommodate one
hundred boarders. The President and his lady
live in the College, and all the pupils are regarded
as members of the same family. We hare a full
corps of experienced, faithful teaehers, all deTo.
ted to their respective classes.
No similar institution in the South affords
greater advantages for a thorough and accom-
plished education Since it's organization undey
the present Faculty, its success has exceeded the
expectations of its warmest friends. Entire hsr.
mony among the Teachers ; excellent health, ap-
pli"ation to study and geod order among the pu-
pills; and a rapidly extending influence and in
creasing hold upon public confidence. are the ala
ments which constitute a Furnishing college. All
of these are enjoyed by our young and growing
Institution. Our prospects are Frightening every
day, and a career of great usefulness opens before
us. With these surroundings, we invite public
attention to Wayne Female College, and wish
grateful acknowledgements for past success, wo
offer to lead tho lovely daughters Of our happy
.and to the pure fountains Of virtue and knoWl-
edge.
This Institution is peculiarly adapte3 10 suit

eminent danger. For after they have passed the
Winter and Spring in those sections, then for
them to remove to the eastern counties to spend
the vacation in June and July, is,to say the least,
very hazardous to their health. Few c~onstitu-
tions can sustain the sudden transition without
injury. But GoIdsboro' is situated just near the
dividing line, having the low country on the east
and the hill country on the west; and our pupils
from the seaboard can safely visit their homes at
any season Of the year, and not be in such danger
from too great change of climate.

is generally Inherited, yet it is possible for those
born with a perfectly sound constitution to become
Scrofulous, from living on improper diet, expo
sing themselves to ~mephitic gases, or malaria or
from inactive digestion, all of which impair the
vitality of the blood. rendering it thickened, aud
