Huntingdon, March 25, 1852.
Birmingham Female Seminary.
The liberal patronage which this Sehool has
received in the past, encourages the proprietor
and friends of female education, to expect by
proper exertion to make it both a prenument and
important Institution; and no pains will by spar
ed to sustain its growing reputation.
Among other considerations which inspire hope
us to its future sucess, the location is not unim
portant. Three years actual experiment has de
veloped a more philosophical, if not a truer reas
on for the existence of Birmingham than many
which have been assigned—that it is the situation
fur a Female Seminary, surrounded as it is by
most romantic scenery—retired--healthful—easy
of access and in itself a place where one might al
most grow wise in the study of Nature alone mi
micked by the works of Art.
The school year is divided into two Sessions of
twentY-two weeks each; the summer term com
mencing the last Tuesday in April, the winter
term the last Tuesday in October.
Charges to thy: Friuli time of entering, and no
deductions made for absence except in case o
sickness.
ninon $4,00 and $5.00 per quarter—boarding
$1,50 per week. Music, Latin, French, Draw
ing, &c., extra.
