was found impossible to elect a provisional Bishop
for the New York diocese. The diocese remains
therefore without an acting Bishop for another
year.
MAIIItIED.
On the, sth inst., by the Rev. Win. R. Mills,
Licut. ROBERT WOODS, to Miss ADAZILLA
Flowtil, all of this place.
- Oh, whit a large, delicious, entire pound-cake
accompanied the above. The truth is, ii revived
our spirits this dull weather, just to look at it,. to
say nothing about the eating part. Language fails
no to properly return thanks to the happy maple,
for this generous remembrance of the Printer.—
May long life, unalloyed happiness, unbounded
prosperity be their portion through life. To friend
Woods, we must say that his unyielding patriotism
deserves nil praise. After gallantly serving his
country as a Lieutenant in the late war with Mex
ico, he now, as a good citizen, stands up for the
union like a man. .

VAN LOAN & CO., No. 118, Chesnut street,
Philadelphia, have, by recent discoveries in
their art, enabled themselves to take pictures at
all times. with great certainty—as well in stormy
as clear weather—which are justly pronounced by
artists and scietitic men, UNRIVALLED, for depth of
tone and softness of light and shade. By working
themselves, they not only produce pictures which
are GOOD AND CHEAP l l but by far the best
and cheapest which can he produced at any other
establishment. Their charge for pictures in hand-
SUM improved cases, lunge from ONE DOLLAR
to three dollars, depending on the size of the pic
ture, being scarcely one-half the prices charged at
other establishments, for pictures of equal size—
but of inferior quality. Their GALLERY OF POR
TRAITS, consisting of some hundreds, embraces
collection of DISTINGUISHED AMERICANS
worthy the attention of visitors to their rooms,
which are OPEN AT ALL TIMES.
The collection which they had deposited in the
exhibition of the Franklin Institute, was constant
ly surrounded by dense crowds of admirers, who
were loud in their praise of the artists' skill.
To guard against every possibility of mistake,
they guarantee every picture to be of the best ma
tennis, and unless it is - entirely satisfactory to the
customer, NO CIIAIME IS MADE.

south-west of Alilllintown, and six miles lirom the
Perryville station on the Penn's. Railroad.
Itlas been in successful operation for more than
twelve years, and is believed to be equal to any
Academy in the State in affording facilities to
young men for acquiring a thorough 'academical
edification, either for business - or for college. Be
ing situated in a very pleasant neighborhood in
the eonntry, the pupils arc removed front these
temptations to idleness, dissipation and vice, which
arc tint bate of similar institutions itt town ; and
the whole surrounding vicinity will vie with any
place in the State for het/MA/am, and tier the
high tone of morality pervading the community.
The buildings ' recently, have beer, greatly im
proved, and are large, appropriate and commodi
ous, constructed according to the latest and most
approved models of school architecture; and are'
believed to combine all the essential requisites for
the. advantage and convenience of both learner and
teacher. Pupils from a distance are required to ,
board in the Academy with the Principals; but if I
it is desired hr the parents, good boarding may be
obtained in the neighborhood.

Light, Books and Stationery are found by the

The academical year is divided into two sessions
of 22 weeks each; and each session into two quar

otherwise seven per cent. on the whole bill far the

The Principals have both bceh constantly enga
ged in teaching, for upwards of twelve years, and
can furnish the very best testimonials, both of
their own scholarship and ability, anti also of the
thoroughness, success and accuracy of their mode of
teaching. They will both give their exclusiro and
undivided attention to their pupils, and will also he
assisted by other competent instructors; and they
therethre hope to enjoy the confidence of the pith - -
lie, and to merit and receive a liberal share of
patronage.
The Vacations occur in April and October.

ing to the Academy,. at which several young men
may board themselves at about hatithe above rates.
