ARKANsAS COLLEGE.

T1IS Institution is located at sEsSS1
 Fayetteville, Washington county, Ssa3ey Arkansas and has been in successful ope- essgy ration for seven years. Some of its Ora As-~S duates have already attained distinction Tn the learned professions, and through its nstrunentalty the cause of education has been greatly advanced in our State For healthiness of situation II Is un- surpassed in the South and South West.
 The College grounds are beautiful, the buildings commodi0us, and well arranged for convenience and comfort. The course of Study is as full and thorough as that of older Institutions in older States; and every year We are aiming at higher grade of Scholarship, having, in great measure, abolished the Primary Department, that the ener- gies of the Professors may be devoted almost cA- clusiyey to tine higher departments of leaning---. We have Faculty composed, (not of mentoo old for energetic actiOn,) but men ill tine rlme oi llIe, thoroughly qualified for their respective positions --men Of training and experience in the art oi teaching, whose success in the past is the best guar antee for the future.
 Knowing that the permanency and usefulness of the College will depend, in great degree, upon the moral and intellectual character Of the young men who are sent forth from it's halls. every eXef ton will be made fortheir improvement. 1heldie and vicious will not be tolerated here; but all couragement and attention will be given to the diligent Student.
 The Session which has just closed, has been marked by conduct and application on the part of the Students, worthy of all praise. In these re- spects we are well assured, from close observation. They have seldom been exceled.
 Arkansas College is not only permanently estab- lished, but it has become a necessity, as is well known by all acquainted with it's past history, pre- sent conditions and future prospects Avery praise worthy liberaty on the part of its friends m this and some of the adjoining States, was manifested at the beginning of the enterprise, and within few months past we have received strong evidences n the shape of noble contributions to the funds of the College, of their unabated interest in its wei fare Handsome donations have been made 10 the College Library, and very recently a very liberal gift ill money, from one of its friends and patrons. to be expended in historical works which will give Us several hundred volumes of the best historical works extant.
 Our natural advantages are too well known to need particular enumerati0n; our society is good. air salubriOus, and water pure. Boarding is cheap, and Educational facilities and interest constantly increasing. Numbers have already been attracted here by the causes above mentioned, and others are coming. The average number of Students for the last seven years has been one hundred In word. Institution, South OF South W est. affords superior facilities for obtaining q thorough educa- ton, than those afforded by Arkansas College Several Scholarships purchased by benevolent per sons are now vacant and few indgent young men oi good character and studious habits, if well re commented, can enjoy the benefits of tuition ill the College, free of charge, on making application to the president.
 In addition to the usual College Course the French, German and Spanish Languages will be taught. The Collegiate Y ear consists Of one session of ten months, divided into two terms of five months each, and begins on the first Mon day in September, and closes the 4th day of July, every year.
