ry, and entirely exempt from all malarial and
epidemic diseases.
THE METHODS OF INSTRUCTION
in this Institution are such as common sense
and the wisdom gained from long experience
have demonstrated to be most effective.
No plan is accepted or rejected because it is
"new" or "oH," but if proved best, no stigma
is placed upon it because it is not the birth Of
yesterday.
THE TEACHING
in this College is fully up to the progressive
demands OF the present. Both the instruction
and example such that even the sluggish and
Indifferent soon become interested, and study
becomes a positive pleasure.
THIRTY YEARS
the Mary Sharp has stood firm amid the des-
olation of war and the prosecutions of envy
and jealousy, and this long record of faithful
and successful toll should be sufficient guar
antee for the future.
STUDENTS OF THIS COLLEGE,
occupying positions OF honor throughout the
land, and who, by the education here rcceiv-
ed, are made blessings to thousands Of South
ern homes" and to the communities in which
they reside, are l,ing mitneSss of the thorough
work done at the Mary Sharp in educating
mind and heart.
ECONOMY
Of dress is insured by neat and inexpensive
uniform.
Books and stationery can be bought at
Nashville prices. No combinations forme,
by which any teacher is to receive profit in
monies spent for pupils.
THE PROSPECTS
of the Institution were never better; request.
for Catalogues and information received dai.
ly, not only from the Southern States; but
from points north OF the Ohio river.
THE STANDARD
OF education is high, and rests upon the con.
viction that cycrysystem of Instruction should
be estimated by its success in promoting the
higher education; by its ability to increase
the power and range OF thought, and to moi
only excite the mind to extended scientific
research, but to join with it that pure mora
culture by which alone the true dignity and
well-being of humanity is insured.

THE so-cALLED HARPER BILL

The Springfield State Register says the
high license bill was ordered to a third
reading Wednesday, 1t cannot be called
the Harper Bill. 1t is now the Harper
Willoughby by Cooke Gregg bill, and has
for its object the increasing of revenue of
municipalities and, incidentally, assisting
several ambitious gentlemen to the bench.
They should be allowed the seciusion that
their bailiwicks grant. We are heartily
glad the boards are cleared of the matter
The democrats have made a record in op-
position to the bill on a self municipal
government platform. and should be sat
isfied. They have done their duty Let
there be no examinations against members
of the party who saw fiji To support the
bill We do not applaud the result, and
had, wished for another sequel We do
believe that Messrs Willoughby, Day,
Kimhrough and Gregg, who claimed to act
with their consciences and as their con-
stituents dictated placed themselves in an
inevitable position, either as prohibition
lists or high license men, by not
only voting for the $3.50 amendment for
malt liquors, but by attempting to
seduce several of their party friends to
follow their example. They knew they
were acting in opposition To the will of
the majority of their party on the floor
and in the state at large 1t might be
said that misery loves company. The
$50 beer amendment was distinctly a
republican sop to the Germans bait of
sugar which would have dissolved and
proved a boomerang had it not been
eagerly taken in by the gentleman above
named who in their eagerness to assist
the radicals lost their consistency Poor
