W. W. CAMPBELL, Principal.
I This Institution, hitherto under The care of Rev.
John Lyon, will henceforth be conducted by the pre
■ sent Principal. The past history of the Academy
will, we trust, be a sufficient guaranty of its tuture
efficiency. The branches taught will be The same as
heretofore. To MASTER PRINCIPLES will be consid
ered the mot important pursuit ot the pupils; and
I while it will be the constant business of the Instruc
tor to impart knowledge, it will also be his aim to
lead his pupils to make a practical application of
their acquisitions. To load the mind with innumer
able formulas, without causing it to use them, would
be like placing a bow in a child s hand, without
teaching him how to bend it. In fine, it shall be our
object, as it has ever been, to lead the pupil to
, THINK.
We look forward confidently to the patronage of
j this community, which has thus far been so gener-
I ously extended, and by an undiminished assiduity,
• we hope to merit your support.
