Not si'nong the least of its advantages is the facility afforded for religious instructions — no less than seven of thp leading denominations of Canada bein)^ represented. TuR Institdtb is an immense building, erected soma fifteen years ago, containing upwards of seventy rooms, including a large num- ber ot commodious lecture and class rooms, and offering every facil- ity for a successful Academical Institution. It is pleasingly situ- ated on the outskirts of tlie Village, and scarcely two minutes' walk from the Station. Tub Pbikcipals have had a U^ngtbened experience in some of the best Schools of Wellington and Peel, and have met with a flatter- ini. degree of success in the different departments of their work. That they are in earnest in their undertaking will be apparent from the fact that thev have given up good positions to enter upon it This step they have been induced to take from the simple fact that the countrv really wants a School in which the instruction will be of a. praetieal nature, and in which each Istudont may have the privilege of selecting those subjects which will best serve his purpose. The support already accorded us, and the marked success attending our first efforts, justify us in pressing our claims upon public notice. Tub Ooubsb op Instbuction is varied to meet the requirements of all. Teachers will be prepared for any or all of the various ex- * aminations they are now compelled to pass, and in tlie whole of their work will have the active assistance and sympathy of the Princi* pals — whether that work consist in '* brushing up " for entrance to the " Normal " or in obtaining any certificate at the County Board. Stddekts who desirp to matriculate at any Canadian or American College or University will receive all the attention and care neces- sary to enable them to enter with honor and credit. The Subscri- bers have for a number of years, when their advantages were much less than at present, sent out candidates who have obtained the highest grade of certificates as Teachers, and who have taken a high stand in our Universities. Parties desirous of a Business or Liberal Education may rely upon receiving it : as a thoroughly practical turn is given to the teaching of Book-keeping, Penmanship, Commercial Law and Pho- nography in all their ramifications ; and as Vocal and Instrumental M.isic, French, German and other fancy or ornamental branches occupy that space and attention which their importance demands. A practical and thorough Teacher, who has had seven years' expe- rience in London, England, takes charge of the Music Department. Phonography or " Short-hand Writing," which is fast rising into an element of a First-class Education, is a novel feature. The sys- tem adopted is that of Graham, the one almost entirely used in North America, and one by which the most rapid speaker can be easily and accurately reported. Neither expense nor effort will be spared in making thi^ Institu- tion take rank as one of the first preparatory Schools in the Prov- ince, and in rendering it an Academy where a cheap, good and practicil education may be obtained. Tkxt-Booes. — Teachers or Candidates for matricniation use the books from which they will be examined. The latest and most ap- proved Hand-Books on other subjectr will be pressed into service by tbe Principals or by the Pupils when necessary. There will b'» no alavish adherence to " What is in the Book :" information will be ccllected from various sources and presented to the pupil either by lecture or by black-board illustration. In certain subjects (as Book- keeping,) the pupil requires no text-book. The Discipline will be firm a,nd courteous, and amongst the Stu- dents the principles of true and generous respect for one another and foir all that is good and honorable will be inculcated and main- tained. Boarders will be made to feel that tliey are at home, and will me«t with all the necessary encouragement and assistance they may require in the prosecution of their studies. Psrcnts or Guardians ma}' rest assured that the utmost care and watchfulness will be ex- ercised over the morals and good behaviour of the pupils. Nothing approaching rudeness, unmanly onduct, or Tifciousness will be tolerated for a moment.
