MISCELLANEOUS.
With pleasure we state that the term Just
closing has been unusually prosperous; 100
students enrolled; an average attendance OF
nearly 1OO-the capacity OF the building. As
a large increase in numbers 10 confidently ex-
peeted next term, temporary rooms will be
furnished until . new building shalt be erect
ed. In addition to this demand for room from
the Normal proper, there is still stronger
from the Model School. Additional buildings
have become . necessity to the future growth
Of this institution. It Is therefore believed
that the Legislature ct its coming session will
make liberal appropriation for such buildings.
4 The Board is contemplating double course
Of study-one Of two years, and one OF four
years and the comforting OF degrees in &C.
cordance with the same.
There are two prosperous Literary Societies
connected with the institution. These are
valuable TO the students in Furnishing opporS
tsinities for literary culture, and practice in
the transaction Of business in deliberative
bodies.
