TIIE Trustees of this Institution take pleasure in
announcing toils palsons and to the public generally,
that they have secured the services of Mr.
Jon* G. Bowman, as Principal, for another year. If
any vouchers were necessary to one who has been so
long known to the public as a'well qualified and successful
instructor ofyouth, they feel justified in saying
that more than two years intimate acquaintance
with Mr. Bowman, has convinced them that he has
few equals in that most difficult of all tasks?train,
ing the youthful mind. I
The classical and mathematical departments will
be under tho exclusive direction of tho Principal. A
competent Assistant will be provided to take charge
of the English department.
Good boarding can be obtained within sight of the

washing and candles; which will also be furnished to
those who may require them, at moderate prices.
