Eight weeks' vacation will be given at the close of the year, from about the first week in November, to the first week in January ensuing. The quarter-days will, in consequence, fall on Jan. 1, March 15, June 1, and Aug. 15, of each year. Payments to be made quarterly in advance, and three months' notice required before the removal of a Pupil. It is believed that the arrangements for receiving Boarders will be found very satisfactory. In order, however, to make them quite complete, the Principal is authorised to obtain at once from England, a Lady of competent and approved experience for the Female department. It has also been resolved to pro~ cure immediately, if possible, Philosophical apparatus, so essential to elementary instruction in physical science, and to the demonstration of even the commonest natural phenomena. In respect to the Domestic comfort of the Pupils, we do not of course promise luxury and indulgence. This would only be to pro. mise education in effeminacy and extravagance, in no case more absurd than in a comparatively recent colony, where especially so much is dependant on individual tact and effort, and where, above all places in the world, the way to competence or wealth lies far removed from " the Castle of Indolence." We do engage, however, by all available means to furnish a home of comfort and enjoyment, and yet one which shall be throughout every part educational — supplying in the play-ground and the dining«room, as elsewhere, systematic encouragement to habits of politeness, candour, and generosity, of exactness, self-reliance, earnestness, and reverence for sacred things. Whoever may be the pupils entrusted to us, we will diligently prepare them for taking their place in this present world ; and, God forbid that we should forget their concern with the world which is to come ! N. B. — Applications on the business of the establishment to be made to the Principal, at the College and Seminary.
