The College is within a few minutes walk of the bench, which affords safe and convenient, bathing. The salubrity of Sumner is unrivalled, and its central situation renders it eminently suitable for a Boarding Establishment. There is communication by coach with ClmVr.chiirch daily, and when the tramway has been completed thorn will be still greater facilities. The dietary is liberal nnd abundant, and the domestic arrangements being under the constant personal supervision of Mrs Wiggins, all the comforts of home are confidently assured to the Boarder*. Punctuality and order are strictly enforced in all scholastic arrangements, nnd avcry care is taken to promote gentlemanly department both in the school and outer life. An exact system of fortnightly examinations and periodical reports lias been arranged, which cannot fail to supply parents with accurate information as to (he progress made by their sons in eviny branch of their studies.

The scheme of studies pursued in the College comprises all the various branches of a thorough English, Classical, and Mercantile Education, a good, sound, adequate knowledge of English being , made to form the basis of tho whole.
