the state, remote from any town, and from the
great thoroughfares of the country, and offers to
its pupils the advantages of retirement and healthy
exercise in the open air. The society in the Ecini
ty of the College is as good DO found any
portion of the State. We offer inducement

of age and experience. and from extensive practice
in former years, is familiar with the diseases OF
this climate, and their treatment. He makes no
charge for services rendered to his pupils. Parents
bringing their children by way of the river will
land at Grand Gulf and go by railroad to Port
Gibson, where arrangements have been made with
the livery stables to bring them out to the College
without delay. All communications addressed to
the President at Rocky Springs, Claiborne county.
Miss, will meet with attention.
