The progress made during the

the mixed character of the school,
and the disadvantages many of the
pupils had labored under. it was
matter Of surprise that such pro-
grcss could be made in the limited
time Especially was this feature

understanding on tho part of the
pui iils o. III, studios pursued
The definitions and explanations
Of the classes in higher arithmetic
and algebra were most satisfactory
The Academy has had 23 pupils

close of the term, not constantly
but as total. This last term has
numbered u, aud the satisfaction
to the students and patrons has
been complete and all that could
be desired. Miss Hull has WON
laurel, in the founding Of this
higher branch of education, and
patrons, students, community and
