This Institution is now established on a permanent
basis, and the Principal confidently refers to his patrons
In this city, and elsewhere, as to Its success In Instruc-
tion. The government of the Academy is mild, though
firm, decisive and uniform. Harshness and severity are
always avoided. Strict order, prompt obedience, and
constant Industry are required as the only means of se-
curing the ends of the Teachers and fulfilling the hopes
of the patrons. The morals and deportment of the pu-
pils are especially cared for, and carefully guarded.—
thoroughness in all the departments of an academical
education is kept in view—scholars taught to think
and to rely upon their own e orts for success. A dally
record of the behavior and recitation of the scholars
kept, and a monthly report sent to their parents or
guardians. But while a spirit of emulation is thus ex-
cited, higher motives to diligence are presented by ap-
peals to the understandings and consciences of the pu-
pils. as moral and accountable beings. Strict attention
paid to the physical as as well as the moral and Intellec-
tual training of the pupils.
The regular course of instruction in this Institution
includes a Primary Department,a Junior, a Middle, and
a Senior Class. Th« studies of each of the classes occu-
py one year,

Pills, is the result of a long and extensive practice;
they are mild in their operation, and certain of re-
storing nature to its proper channel. In every in-
stance have the Pills proved successful. They are
certain to open those obstructions to which females
are liable, and bring nature into its proper channel
to a healthy one No female can enjoy good health
unless she is regular; and whenever an obstruction
takes place, whether from exposure, cold, or any
cause, in general health immediately begins to de-
cline, and the want of such a remedy has been the
cause of so many comsumptions among young fe-
males. Headache, pain in the side, palpitation ol
the heart, loathing of food, and disturbed sleep, do
most always arise from the interruption of nature;
and whenever that is the case, the Pills will invari
ably remedy all these evils. In all cases of painful
menstruation, or nervous and spinal affections in
the back and limbs, lowness of spirits, hysteries,
Ac. Nor are they less efficacious in the cure ol
Leucorrhcea, commonly called the "Whites." These
Pills should never be taken during pregnancy as they
would be sure to cause a miscarriage. Warranted
purely Vegetable,and free from anything injurious
to life or health. Full and explicit directions which
should be read, accompany each box.
These pills are put up in squart flat boxes. Persons
