This Schoo! will be re-opened on the Ist of Sep- teniber, 1857, for the reception of Boarders and 2 few day Scholars. The object in view is to extend to all who apply and are admitted, a thorough and useful education.

Female education has now taken such a firm hold on public attention, that, to prociain its advantace: would be to portray a degree of ignorance not con patible with modern improvement. The elevating influence of female education is felt and acknowl edzed by every admirer of female excellence ; hes- itate then, no longer, to bestow on your danghters those chaste et that are indispensible to their ad- vancement and success through life.

Appropriate hours will be set apart for study and daily exercise. The discipline will be mild and per- suasive, but very firm. 1 Saturdays are appoint- ed every month for the girls to visit and make pur- chases. The Gospel is preached from four different pulpits.sffording to each the grivileze of attending the Chureh of her choice. No influence will be ex- erted to control the religious prejudices of the pu- ils. \While practical Christianity will form the pasis of their instruction, the selection of Churches and Sabbath Schools will be submitted to the decision of parents aad papile the variety of religious priv- ileges here, will not fail to offer satinfaction to all. ‘No $ rwill be taken fora shorter term than five mon’ admistion wil be obtain d'any time dur- ing the session, and charged only from the time of entrance.
