CLEVELAND IxsTITUTE.-Thero is no similar
institution in the country, with which We are
acquainted, that deserves SO we'll Of the press
and the public as the Cleveland Institute,
over which Prof. Humiston presides, and it
affords US great pleasure to devote space in
our columns to its favorable notice. Situated
OF University Heights one and quarter
miles from the Public Park, it possesses one
Of the most healthy and picturesque locations
in the country, and while easy Of access it is
wholly retired from the smoke, dust and bus
tie Of the city. While many schools through
out the country, hitherto hourishing, have
greatly fallen away and some ceased alto
gether on account Of the war, the Cleveland
Institute shows to-day greater degree Of
prosperity than it has heretofore known, and
this result is clearly due to the merits of the
course which it pursues and the superior ex.
eellence as instructors, Of the worthy princr-
pal and assistants. The Institution has
great fame both at home and abroad, and
most deserYedly.
A thorough and practical course Of instruc-
ton has been adopted, comprising all studies
necessary to prepare young men for admis-
sion to any college, or ft them for the active
duties of business life and to secure to young
ladies course Of mental discipline equal to
that Afforded By the best female seninaries.
Each department Of study has its responsible
head in teacher Of experience and establish
ed reputation; while the Principal, in addi-
tiOn to the duties Of personal instruction,
aims, BY q Watehful supervision, to give unity
% the whole system Diplomas are awarded
= those who complete the prescribed course
Of study.
One special feature Of the school the past
year was the introduction Of military in
structiOn, which, although an experiment,
has 50 fully demonstrated its utility as
means Of discipline in school, that the
faeulty feel Warranted in continuing this
branch Of study, at least so long as the pres
ent state Of the country demands increased
facilities for acquiring military knowledge
and discipline. The school has already fur
nishsd several officers for the army. This de-
Partment viii continue to be under the charge
Of Capt. Junius Sanford, who has proved him
self very competent as well as popular mil
tary teacher. Arms have been secured for
the cadets.
Besides very thorough course in all the
essential branches Of education, strict atten-
ton is paid to the moral culture of the pupil.
No pupil whose influence Is eorrupting is con
tinued in the school. In order that powers
Of the body may be developed together with
the faculties Of the mind, physical education
is regarded, a large and we'll furnished gym
nssiun being connected with the Institute,
to which all have access.
The military uniform worn by the pupils
consists Of cap, frOck coat and pants Of dark
blue cloth, being the regulation dress Of the
Q. s. Infantry. We may say we have never
yet heard Of pupil Of Prof. HumistOn's dis
sraeiAs he cloth, whatever their elders in the
army may have done.
