~ We once saw a young man lying with
in a few feet ola whiskey cart, beastly drunk
en-, and in a position and under circumstances
by which his life was in immediate danger.
Some kind gentlemen removed him to a place,
out of danger, while the whiskey peddler,
who had furnished the whiskey to make him
drunken, stood by with his hands in his
brooches pockets feeling the coppers he had
gathered that day. Why should he disdair
to lay to a helping hand and aid these kind
gentlemen Does the she-bear cast her off

begin on Monday the 18th of January next, and
continue 20 weeks. In moral, healthy and refined
.neighborhoods, remote from grogshops and %taverns,

make them thorough upon their texts, we appeal to
our friends and former patrons for support. After
long experience in teaching, we feel no hesitation
in reminding the public of the fact, that boys must
be retired and distant from places Of dissipation, if
they are expected to make rapid progress in their
studies.
Board and Tuition at either place will be $65 for
English, and SIS for Classical Students. Boys
coming by Railroad will stop at Henderson De-

A DEVOTED WIFE.-A correspondent of the
Boston Post relates the following in referring
to the recent accidental death. OF. Cod. Wynn
koop:
"With his wife, who is an invalid, he was
visiting the interior of Pennsylvania for re-
creation and change Of scene. The country
is wild there andsparsely settled. One NOR
ming he went out with his servant to shoot
game for his wife. In handing him the gun,
the servant, by accident, discharged it the
contents took effect in his leg, severed the ar
terry, and he lived but a few minutes.
An absurd superstition prevails among the
ignorant inhabitants Of this region, against
touching a dead body before an inquest has
sat upon it. The servant had been sent al
once for aid to some distance, and in vain die
Mrs. Wynkoop endeavor to induce by appli
cations, by promises, by offers of money, The
stultified neighbors to shelter and care fol
her husbands body. > 1t was night. He still
lay where he fell and there, in that howl
ing wilderness, with the calmmy dampness
of midnight gathering on her garments, dic
that delicate woman, as frail as the wild flow
ers around her that folded their petals to
gether in that weird solitude, sit alone OF
the chill turf, supporting on her knee tn
head of her husband and there remained
keeping her lonely vigil until the breaking
of the grey dawn, alone with her dead an
with her bleeding heart.
eff the incident be a sad one, it becomes
season set apart to lessons and pledges of a
fiction"

With regard to the modes of instruction, adop-
ted in this Institution, it is enough to say that
Prof. York's improved system is fully carried cut,
and the surest test Gifts excelleney and efficiency
is, that the most ~sanguine expectation of all no
have tried it, has been fully realized.
Such students as desire it, can be prepared for
any class in College, and those who may wish to
prepare for teaching Common Schools, will have
ample opportunity for doing so by entering the
Normal Department. Every possible attention is
given to the moral as we'll as the mental training
of the pupils.
For a session of Ten months, 1926 aoiU couer

penses, must be deposited with some member of
the Faculty on entering school, the other to be
