irsrmer's High School.
We take the following extracts, in refer
ence to this Instition, from an exceedingly
lengthy report in the
, State Sentinel, written
by it special correspondent, num', under'
date of February 16th:—
"'The Fartner's Iligh School opens to day
for instruction, and as the officers of many
County Agricultural Societies have omitted
do nominate eandidateit for admission, in ac
cordance with the charter of the School, the
Faculty will admit the surplus from those
counties which desire t greeter number than
that to which their ratio entitles them, or
those eecommended by iudt`viduals, if such
possess the necessary qualifications. No
'one can be admitted who has not - attained
the age of 16, and is not qualified by a
knowledge of reading, writing, arithmetic,
grammar, and geography, to a degree Ruff•
dent to warrant him in commencing a colle
giate education of the highest grade. The
arrangement of thu higher studies, Mr, War
ring informs me, has been defvged for the
present. Among the studies for the first
and second years are Physical Geography,
Map Drawing, Orthography.Elocutiop, Corn •
position, Declamation, English Grammar,
History, Rhetoric, Arithmetic (mental and
written) and its application to business, Al
gebra, Geometry and their application to
Mensuration and construction. The natu
ral Sciences, including Botany, Animal and
If uspin.o 4 llysioingy, Chemistry, Geology,
Euternotogy, Natural Philosophy, Including
Mechanics. The principles of Soil and
Plant Culture, Farm Management and the
application of Science to all branches of Ru
ral economy.
" A circular recently issued says that
"students are required to perform every de
scription of labor necessary at the Institu
tion, whether on the farm, in the shops,•et
or about the College buildings, and three
hours af active labor is required each day,
but no more, unless upon some special ex
tency. All knide of labor ara 2qually ham
ored."
It is designed that this shall be a school_
slime agricultural knowledge and science
can be obtained at an expense 80 moderate
as to be within the reach of every one ;
and, in accordance with this design, the
charge for tuition. boarding, wsullijng, fuel,
light, text books, for each seasiri of ten
months, has been placed at the incredibly
low figure of one hundred dollars --which
however: is required to be paid in advance.
The most casual observer will at once per
ceive that this sum would not be sufficient
to keel) the Institution in existence, if con•
ducted upon the plan of other colleges, and
it is, in pant, for this reason that the stu
dentsare reqiiired , to perform, each day,
three hours of active labor. Thus, while
they are being taught the business of their
after life, they will be contributing to their
own education, by the labor of their own
hands. A Principal has not yet been aelectv
but, for the present, the School IN under
I the charge of Wm G. Waring, as general
Superintendent and Professor of Agriculture
and ; J. S. Whitman, Proles
nor of Natural Sciences ; Samuel Baird, Pro
fessor of Mathematics ; and R. C. Allison,
•Profevaor of English Literature—a Faculty
skilled in the art of farming, and in all those
natural Sciences which pertain to It—under
whose direction all the management, buai•
ness, and vrd'rk of the farm will be perfor
med by the pupils By this system. whilst
their minds are being imbued with the prin
ciples and science of agriculture, their daily
occupation will be practically Jesting ~the
truth of what they learn.
This Institution has the best rooms in the
State. and they are equal, if not supenor to
any in America. The provisions for warm•
ing and ventilating arena keeping with the
progress of the age, and far superior to
those of any public buildings heretofore
erected. About IWO worth of illustrating
apparatus, in addition to a host of farming
machines, has already been received, and
more will hereafter be obtained.
The building le amagnificent ono, and
grandly situated on an elevated and healthy
plateau of arable land of the best quality,
and very nearly the geographical centre of
,the State- The reader will, doubtless, 4-

after a most careful examination of several
points in various quarters of the State, fix

where the land is limestone, fertile and
beautiful. The firm does not contain a sin
gle half acre of rooky ground ; nor does not
contain any that is in the least, precipitous,
while the water arrangements arc all that
could be wished for. As a place-for practi—
cal agriculture, nothing more favorable
could be desifed ; and it is sufficiently re
moved from those annoyances of a town or
public place, so prejudical to the pursuit of
study, or,the security of 6,, wathmanaged
farm or garden.
As has been stated by the President of
the Board of Trustees, and by others, time
and again, three hundred acres of this WO
was generously donated to the . ' Institution,
by Gen. James Irvin, with the privilege of
purchasing one hundred acres on each side
of it, at any time within flveyears, at sixty
didlani an acre ; and, in the meantime, to
have possession of the whole, uponlpsyrnent

The Iniatitntion is under the assiduous

can be accomplished by zeal and 'enthusi

will be done to secure thetomplete success

The opening of the school was celebrated
by co ceremonies. whatever. The students
merely registered their names, paid •over
their hundred dollars, and drew lots for,
rooms. I desire here to sly that I was
much !Tressed with this system of allotment
All were waked upon equal footing, and no
favoritism was shown. The plan of draw
ing was as follows : Small folded slips of
paper, containing each the number of a
room, were placed iii a small box, and, after
each student had selected a mate, the box
was held up, and he drew, the number on
the paper designating his quarters for the
session. I observed some parents who, at
first unwilling to let their sons. risk this
system of allotment, were beseiging the pro•
fessorn with "I want my son n good room on
the cerond fluor: . want my .on to have
a room with a double bed," aryl "My ion
most have a room with a smile bed, as T
wont allow Mtn to sleep with anybody,'' do ,

I desire in this connection to sty, Irom a
personal knowleilgo of the gentlemen who
compose the Faculty of the School. that
there could not have been better selections
made They are all men of experience in
teaching, and fully competent to discharge
their onerous duties. In the selection of
Wm. G. Waring as Professor of Agricul
ture and Horticulture and General Superin
tendent the Trustees have displayed much
wisdom, not only on accinnit of his extend
ed knowledge, but for bu great energy and
peculiar litl2llllCSa tact. On the whole I
think the Farmer's High School particularly
fortumite to having such a Faculty as Wm.
G Waring, J S. Whitman, Samuel Baird,
and R. O. Allison.
The greater part of the week was taken
up in the examination and classification of
students: adopting flyeaum and.rides of or
der, and making general preparations fur
the progress of the School. The institution
Is now fairly under way, and there cannot
be a doubt that it will succeed.

As !night be expected, Mr. Waring, as
General Superintendent, has more impored
upon him at the present time than he can
well attend to. Ile has, therefore, secured
the services of Samuel Gilliland, Esq., as As
sistant Superitttentlent of the Agricultural
Department, until the first'of Ha).
I have been requested by those In author
ity to announce that hereafter visitors iled
not expect scocmmorlations at the School, as
no prov,isions will be made for them. Mr. Da
vid Stewart has opened a Temperance Ho
tel at Centre Furnace, about three quarters
of a mile below, when he will be happy to
receive visitors to the School, and the pub.
lie generally. I have the authority of Mr.
Potter, of the Furnace, for saying that Mr.
Stewart is a gentleman, and will keep such
a - house as vixitOrn would desire.
As was before stated, "Students are re
quired in perform every description of labor
necessary at title Institution, whether on the
farm, in the Bilotti, or at or about the build
ing," and with the exception of cooking and
baking, which is done by contract, by a
Philadelphian, and thb washing, which is
hired, all the at ork is performed by them.
The portion of the building already erec
ted (about one-third of thmproposed design)
is capacitated for upwards of ono hundred
and twenty students. ht was at first deter
mined to admit but one hundred, but as
nearly tlitat number have already applied for
and received admission, it is more than rob,

Irish Witticisms
Rev. Henry Giles, it. a recent lecture,
spoke of Irish wit and humor as displayed
by the educated classes and by the peas
antr.r. Swift's wit was scathing, burning,
with an element of fierceness ; the soetal wit
of Sheridan was sportive ; Canning's was
keen and bitter, as when the citrate was
anxious to have him praise his sermon, and
could elicit from him. nothing hut the re

the curate, "1 sun careful not to he tedious "
" But,'sir, you did not succeed," said Can
lung " you were brief, but you were te
