This Seminaiy wu fint established in the year 1846, at the instance of the College Committee of the Synod of the Presbyterian Church of Canada, and through the exertions of a few gentlemen of Toronto, connected with that Church. The founders of it endeavonred from the veiy commencement of the undertaking to obtain the co-operation of other Christian denominations; and in the year 1849 they resolved to make a special effort to efiect this desirable arrangement This effi>: t has been crowned with snccoss, and, in conseqcence, the original denominationa) .i4lMl^r of the Institution has been removed— its basis extended— its field cf useAilness enlarged, and its permanency jH^fAaieAcy placed upon a more secure tboting. The great objects, ibr the attainment of which the Academy was original'y established and is still maintained, may be briefly stated as follows : — 1. That the Pupils, ui all departments of their Education, should be placed under the care and training of Masters of a decidedly Christian character— whose instructions and deportment should be pervaded by, and diffuMve of a Christian spirit. 3. That Bible instruction should form a fundamental part of the course, and be continued in a regular systematic manner, so that the pupil should eventually go forth, possessed of a thorough knowledge of the contents of ihb sacred volume. 3. That the course of Education should be so arranged in its several departments, English, Classical, Mathematical and Commercial, as that no undue preponderance should be given to any one of these, to the neglect of others, but that each receiving its just measure of time and attention, the various mental faculties of the pupil might be duly cultivated, and their proper balance in his future character secured. 4. That the course of Education and all the practical arrangements of the Seminaiy should be, as far as possible, adapted to the peculiar circumstances and wants of the community in this young country— and especially to those of young men of piety and talents, desirous of obtaining the preliminary training neoeasaiy to fii them for the PhUbsophieai and Theufcgical studies, preparatory to the work of the Holy Ministry. 5. That a Boarding House should be provided in connection with the School, worthy of the confidence of Parents and Ouatdiana, — the vigilant, afieciionate and Christian superintendence of the young being secured in its regulations and admin- istration. Such are the leading objects which it is aocght to attain in this Institution. For the attainment of these, under the Divine blessing, the Dirctors pledge thenuselves to use their best endeavours, by the careful preparation and steady enforcement of a code of Rules and Regulations, for the conducting of the institution ; by vigilant personal inspection of its practical operation, and especially by the choice of suitable Masters, and the maintenance under these of a kind and efficient discipline. In regard to this latter point they think it right to state, that corporal punishments, although by no means formally excluded, have practically been seldom resorted to in the Seminaiy, and are reserved mainly for cases of moral delinquency in the younger pupils— it being understood that when any immoral habit, or a spirit of insubordination, or a deliberate disregard of the rules of the Institution discovers itself, the oflTender in such case, whether Boarder or Day Scholar, shall be removed, and that all possible caution will, iu these respects, be exercised in the admission of pupils. It w proposed to include, in the regular course, instruction in the French Language and in the principles of linear Drawing, without any addition to the ordinary feet ; Vocal Music and Penmanship, under the direction of the best Masters, having been already thus introduced. The year will, as heretofore, be divided into Four Terms of Eleven Weeks each, commencing and terminating as follows — fr l^th'tm'Sr'iySfth^S^'^ \ V«AT.c,-F.m aSth December till 3rd January.

The School will be divldoU into Six Forms, with raferance to the attainments of the pupils, and will ordinarily embrace a Six Yean' Course ; each pupil at entrance having his place assigned in the Form for which his previous progress may appear to fit him, and having moreover tail opportunity afforded him, in the Monthly or Quarterly Reviews, to obtain promotion to a higher Form by superior dUig«Qo« ud Ra«c«M in hit studies.
