! the Institution, but by special arrangement—a class will
1 be taught in a hail adjoining the grounds of the Institute,
by the Teacher ol Vocal Music.
This arrangemeut has been adopted for the past term,

the plan pursued iu former years. Special pains will lie
taken to secure the greatest progress of those wishing to
take lessons iu this branch. Tonus will lie as heretofore :

It is strongly recommended that students from abroad
should board in the Institution, as better opportunities
for advancement in study are thereby secured.
-Vurmai Department —Special exercises are arranged
j without extra charge for those preparing themselves as
I Teachers of Common Schools. Prof. C. It- CO BURN, ttie
j able and well known Superintendent of Common Schools
j in the county, has kindly consented to organize the Tea
cher s class, aud direct the course to be pursued.
I He will also be preseut to conduct its exercises as niton
| as practicable, and will deliver frequent lecture* on the
! Theory and Practice of Teaching, as also on other subjects
' connected with Normal training.
Those persons, therefore, intending to engage in teach
ing for the winter, will find it greatly to their advantage
j to be present during the Fall term.
Prof. C'oburn's connection with the institution is not
I such as to in any way interfere with the discbarge of the
1 regular duties of his office.
No pains will be "pared, on the part of the Faculty and
! Trustees in sustaining the high repulatution the in-titn
