The Cooper under the charge Of Rev.
VIcToR L. CONRAD, as President, and Rev,
FRED W. CONRAD, as Vice President, togeth
er with the corps of first class assistants they
have chosen, has been one of the best educa-
tional institutions in the whole country Com.
petent gentlemen, who have examined its
working, and compared it with that of the first
class schools, assure us that this is true; the
marked success of pupils practically confirms
it.
At no former time has the Cooper been so
fortunate in the entirety of its faculty. The
President determined that he would have a
corps of assistants who would be unexception-
able not only in requirements, but in their
capacities for imparting instruction to others.
We can assure the parents and guardians of
young ladies that he has at last succeeded in
his purposes, and has now secured the ser
vices Of teachers who have been tested, and
are known to be just such as are needed at the
Cooper"
To those residing here, we need say nothing
about the discipline of the institution, but to
those who live at distance we will say that
pupils who board at the institution will be
under the immediate supervision of Mrs Con
RAD, an estimable and intelligent lady, who
will exercise motherly care over them their
moral and social, as well as intellectual cul
ture will be seen to, and no efforts will be
spared 10 advance them in all that contributes
to true womanhood. We speak thus heartily
aboutthe Cooper and the good people having
the institution in charge, because we can Dc
so conscientiously, and because we have the
true interests of pupils at heart The locd
tioH is too well and favorably known to de
mand word from us those who are ignor
ant of the beauties of and the advantages o.
a soourn in Dayton, will probably take toe
little interest in education to send their daugh
ters or wards any where to school Our rea
ders will please remember that the next ses
sion will commence on Tuesday the 4th, anC
we hope that the several departments will b.
filed on the first day of the session.

The Seven Commandment
Greeley.
JAMES CRosBY, | ,
d. G. FITCH,
Q P. HUBER, / sec,v.
Isaac Cole, eS' '''

Horace Greeley is evidently preparing to
take the stump. He has issued the following
seven commandments:
HINTS TO POLITICAL MEETINGS.
/. Do not fix the day for your meeting and
then look up your speakers-they will already,
perhaps, have been engaged elsewhere for
that very day-but secure your speaker first
Let them fix the day
H. Two prominent speakers, with the local
aid at your command, are amply sufficient for
any one mass meeting. Let the people under
stand these can be relied on, and do not load
your bills with any array Of great names only
to disappolnt your audience
III. Have your meetings. if possible, in
doors. One indoor meeting, even if packed
is worth half dozen outdoor noisy gather
ings. The former is comparatively easy and
the latter difficult for speaker to control.
". Ifyou must have outdoor gatherings
then seek the grove or woods, and fail not to
erect a stand for your speakers, and cover that
stand with boards, and with nothing else
Canvas Rbs0rhs and deadens the voice. while
with nothing above the speakers head, his
voice will waste in the air above, and in five
cases out of six he will break down.
V. Always put down upon your platform,
whether in or out doors, piece of course car
pet to stand upon. Never cover with oil cloth
unless you expect your speaker to be lileless
and dull
vi Consume as little time as possible in
preliminaries, in marching and countermarch-
ing, get your procession upon the grounds
with dispatch, and proceed at once with the
business of the meeting.
VII Remember, your speakers, especially
the more prominent ones, having families 70
support There time is valued, and it costs
them money to travel on railroads and stay at
hotels "Thou shalt not muzzle the moth oi
the OK that treadeth out the corn"
