For many years Dloomingburg has been
proverbial for the high tone Of its moral
and religious character, and is widely
known as ono If the few places where no
intoric0ting liquor is sold. 1t is free from
those temptations that so often destroy the
hopes of persons who send their children
away from the restraints of well ordered
households for education. Students nre
expected to board in private families,
whero a home influence will be exerted in
harmony with the tenchings Of the Bible,
and by which parents may choose the so
cial and religious associations of their
children. Habits Of economy, regularity
and industry arc naturally acquired by as
sociatiOn with o community so remarkable
for its freedom from social excosses, and
the Observance of the requirements of
Protestant Orthodox Religion. With a
view to keep the Institution above the con-
taminatng influences Of the vicious; all
students unknown to the teachers or trus-
tees, will be required to furnish certih-
cate Of good moral character and industri-
GUS habits, to gain admission; and those
who are disobedient and indolent will be
sent away.
A daily account is kept Of each students
attendance, conduct and scholarship, a +
summary of which is read at the close Of
each session, and when desired, sent to /
parents or guardians.
An examination will be held at the close
of the first and third sessions, which all
the studorts are required to attend. AT q
the close of the year such exercises will bo
added 10 tho review Of the studies as will j,
exhibit attainmeDts in Rhetoric, 0ratory
and Music.

and should not befuInished /
with funds for such usos as lead to dissi-
patton and indolonoe.
