The Fall session, which viii close on the 23rd

Viii grateful aeknowledg ements for past success,
we again invite attention to Waype Female Col
lege. and offer to lead the lovely daughters of our
happy land to the pure fountains Of virtue and
knowledge.
Our situation is peculiarly adaPted to suit the
eastern portions of North Carolins, virginia, and
South Carolina. Those who sendthelr daughters
and wards into the middle and western sections of
the State to be educated, expose them t. danger.
For after they have passed the winter and spring
in these sections, then for them to remove to the
eastern counties to spend their vacation In June
and JUN. is tc say the least, very hazardous to
their health. Few constitutions can sustain the
sudden transition without injury. But Goldsboro'
is situated just near the dividing line, having the
low country on the east and the hlli country on
the west: and our pupils from the seaboard can
safely visit their homes at any eason of the year
and not be in such danger frop too great change
of climate. Let the people o Eastern Carolina
continue to sustain their owp cherished Institur
ton.
