The ULYSSES ACADEMY was commenced
in the spring of 1859 and opened to students
the following September. Its object is to af-
ford to the youth of its vicinity, and to others
who may choose it, as a place Of study, the
requisite facilities for obtaining a thorough
and practical education.
The school is in a neat, two-stOry building,
beautifully situated on a gentle eminence
commanding Il view of the village and coun-
try around. The adjoining yard contains
about three acres. The upper story contains
a single room and is used for a chapel. reci-
t%ation, and study room. This room is lighted
by IA large windows, furnished with seats for
$50 scholars, tables, black boards, maps,
charts, clock, thermometer, and Library Of
Reference Books. The lower story contains
two rooms for recitations, one for library, a
dressing room, and a hall 8 by A feet.
The students board in private families and
study in their own rooms. Nearly every fam
lily in the village open their houses to boaTdcrs.
As several new houses are being erected,
there will be no lack Of accommodations
and, in private families, students can enjoy
the comforts of home.

tercourse OF the students with each other and
with the Instructors is expected to conform to
the courtesies and proprieties of cultivated
society. Their admission to the institution
and enjoyment of its privileges, imply a s@-
cred contract On their part promptly to OBJ
serve its Regulations. A copy of these is fur
nished to each student and conformity to them
is indispensable to continuance in the I%nstitu-
ton.
