MORAL SCIENCE AND BELLES LETTEE&

PBOFB880B BONNELL.

Morality is a science. It is no longer obscured midst the delu-
sive subtleties and vague theories of speculative M< taphysics. Un-
der the Heavenly influence of religion, the philosophy of monJi
hai expanded and developed into a beautiful system; the study of
which not only invigorates the mind, hut refines the morals and en-
lightens the conscience. Too much importance can scarcely he
given to this course of study. The mind of the present age is tg-
grenWe and utilitarian. Henoa the path of NMOa and duty are ig-
nored, while there \ a shorter and smoother way open to the achieve-
ments Of life But the study oi moral science arrests the mind in
its thoughtless flight, and causes it to pMM and rtadj the grand
and mysterious elements of our own immortal being. It teaches
that " the great study of man is man." It then points our thoughts
Outward, and under the pure light of Revelation, enlarges our con-
ceptions of moral and social duties, and heightens our obligations
to God and man.

This course will be taught by Lectures and recitations. The de-
sign will not only be, to exercise and strengthen the mind, but also,
to enrich it with the purest and brightest LeHOBt of rirtae und mo-
rality.

Bki.i.ds LrrPMta will embrace correct reading, speaking and com-
position-, and whatever tends to adorn and dignify the style and ex-
pression of language, whether oral or written.

MATHEMATICS-

PROFESSOR MAYSON.

The greatest achievements of the human mind, depend chiefly on
the exercise of human reason. Hence the importance of Mathe-

mattes, wli n anil tendency, i- so unfold and develop (be

great faculties of thought and reason. The young ladies of the
present day srs mnwnded 1;. siesJy and superficial literature.
They sequin under it* influence s diseased imagination, becloo-
ded reason, and ;i mind wholly unfit lor the rial and practical dntiei
of life, This seeret influence so dangerous (a the mind a > < 1 morals
of the yoong, most be final] resisted and sneeet fully overoome by
thorough and rigid exercise of the mind in tin- great field o
(hematics) reasoning.

It will Ijc the design of the Professor in this departim nt, t<> trrest
tin- ivil intliK-iii r- to wlnili ire bave alluded; ami give to the mind
a healthy tone and rigorous totioa, by sehooling ii well in the *s>
rious methods of deductive and inductiTe reasoning taught in this
dedepartment.

The pupil will he taught herein by daily demonstrations and re-
citations at the black-board.

NATURAL SCIENCE AND FRENCEL

PB07E8SOB HARRIS.

The study of Natural Science opens to our view the gland truths,
tie.' hidden secrets i nd sublime wonders, which surround us in the
world of nature. Serein the mind is taught to reason from oaUM
to affect, and to eomprehend principles rather than bets. The sub-
lime philosophy, rather thai the isolated facts, of nature, are taught
and enforced,

1 bus, while the uiind is being strengthened, its affections are
quickened, and its conceptions are ennobled in beholding on every
hand she most _t;i ml and beautiful displays of Infinite Wisdom and
Goodness. The more we study the beautiful philosophy and benevo-
lent designs of nature, the tetter do we comprehend the truth that
Ood k //", i ."

This course will be taught chiefly by Lectures.

i-KKNcn is also a part of the regular course. It will be taught
upou the plan adopted by the best and greatest French Masters of
the age.

LATIN LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE,

PROFESSOB AKKKS.

Language boi i the nobleel attributes of human knowle

Beingthe great vehicle of thought, it becomes the eleo stie, which
holds iiwtivi.inMlr-. oomnraainas and nations in one eom m bond of
sympathy and lore. The study and improvement of Language then,
is certainly of paramount importance. We ean only comprehend
the philoaophj and beauties of the English tongue bj a thorough
knowledge of the Latin.

The Professor in thia department will labor sssiduoualj to teach
the pupil the principles and pbiloaophj of the language to enable
ber tn brace the analogy and note the modificationa of the Latin and
English tongues. Thus a more enlarged and critical knowledge of
the English is attained, while the mind is enriched and refined bj
the classic beauties of the Koman.

ENGLISH LITERATURE.

MBS. 11. P. JUDGB.

This department has been noticed above, under the b< ad of Belles
Letters. v?s remark, however, that a thorough acquaintance with
the principle- and literature of our own Ian of the fret im-

portance. The Pronuneiation, the Orthography, Penmanship, Ren-
ding, Composition and History of the English Language, are t'aith-
t nl 1 v taught.

The Instructress in this course is faithful, experienced and accom-
plished, and will do justice to this field of study.

MISS \| \ j-i a BROWN.

Thil Department is now entirely under the control of Miss
Brown. She a attire of Georgia a lady of gnat worth and su-
perior qualifications. She controlled tbii Department daring the
last Collegiate year in thn Enatitatioa, tad in such manner as to
give tbe most decided sstisftotioB to every one. The Trustees con-
sider tbaasatlfaa fortunate in rataiaing the errioeaofa lady so
pre-eminently qualified to fill this Department.

A thoraagh knowledge of thane bcaaoaee of the Fine Arts is

one of the- rarest and richest ornaments of female education. The
present elegant and finished specimens which bare reeently passed
from the hands of the instructress in this Departm. nt. should corn-
men,! the Divine Art to every lover of the beautiful in life.

PRIMARY DEPARTMENT

Will be in the hands of faithful and competent teachers. Herein
pupils will be well prepared to enter the College Classes. They will
be drilled with an eye directly to that object.

The following is the Report of the Board of Examiners, relative
to the cdiaraeter of the recent Examination of this CoB< -

To the Trustees of thr LaQrwiye Fdmal< CoUtgt :

Gentlemen At the request of the Faculty, the undenigned com-
mittee have attended the Examination* of the College flamnn of the
LatJrauge Female College, beginning ou Monday, 1 1 1 - 5th inst., an.i
closing on Thursday, the 8th. As special interest is now felt iu the
success of the Institution under the new administration of its affairs,
the Committee feci that the duty assigned them was a very impor-
tant one Feeling- a lively interest iu the cause of education, ami
being especially anxious that our Institutions of learning may ado-
ceed in elevating still .higher the standard of attainment, theiraiij-
mittee attende d the exercises with a fixed purpose to approvdjluly
what was thought won h\ of approval after a candid and int|Hp;:I
scrutiny. The most ample opportunity to investigate was afforded
to the Caaamitte, and the examinations, whether conducted by the
Professors or by members of the Committee, were biddy satisfacto-
ry. Six"!' ty were, devoted in these examinations an hour
and a half tf> two hours to each class.

The President, Bat. W. <i Connor, examined tilnisns in Rhetor-
ic and Mural Science

Prom these examinations, and from the excellent discipline mairi-
tim',1 daring the examination) the committee an- satisfied thai the
duties of tin Preaidenej have beD ably and faithfully performed.
The suavity ami firmness of the President have permitted him to
gel and retain bold upon the fleettom of the young ladiee, which
has enabled bun to exercise a large Influence in promoting their mo*
nil and mental program

Prof. ). II. Ma jaon examined nliaini in Arithmetic, Algebn
ometrji and Trigonometry. The Committee sen hardly do justice
in tiii- iketeh to the skill and fidelity of Prof. M. M BB instructor.
Great patience, -kill and experience a- i tea sher, and an intimate
acquaintance with these an! aid alone secure the success to

which theee i laaaei hare attained.

Prof. Jno. W. Altera examined classes in Latin. As Latin was
made an essential to the honor* of the College only a year ago, most
of the classes were beginners. In drilling pupils in the elements of
the Latin Language, ProC A. haa been remarkably i. The

Committee must be allowed to express their gratification at the unu-
1 sually thorough and systematic drilling to which the classed have
been subjected in Etymology and Syntax Those who have un-
dertaken to guide the young mind along ti.i- ragged and slip-
pery path, can fully uuderstand that ability and zeal in the pro-,
<u, and great pcr.-cvereiice, can alone enable the teacher to place
the pupil upon the staud point at which the committee found these
clas-e-.

Prof. W. A. Harris examined classes in Natural Philosophy r>^d
French.

In Natural Philosophy the classy -lmwed that they had been
taught to reason upon the subjects, presented for their consideration.
The reasoning powers had evidently been brought into active ex-
; ercise, and it was clearly shown that Prof. H. considers the cultiva-
tion of the mind of much more value tb c the mere hoarding of
l knowledge. The classes in French, too, proved that Prof. Harris
is an able, faithful and successful instructor

.Mrs. Judge examia ' classes in English Literature, and Do-
; rnestic Economy.

Mrs. Judire is so well known and approved by your body, that we

need say no more than that her labors learned te the Committee to
have been eminently rao^mrfbl folly sustaining the reputation
already won be- inany years of mco wfu j and acceptable teaching.
In tine, the Committee take this occasion to congratulate the
Trustee*, .iml through them the patrons and friends of the Institu-
tion, upou the very favorable auspioee under which the fear'e kabori
have been oloead. The College is before the public, mid it is the
privilege at the citizens <ii LeGraoge; and the larroiiBding country,
to Me that it is sustained. They owe this U duty, not so much
to the President, the tWeeton, the Tru.-tees, and to the church
under the patronage of which the College is placid, as to themselves,
and their children. Let every citizen feel that he is doing an inju-
ry to himself, his children, his friends, and to Moiety, whenever he
fails to give .he approved teacher hi- earnest and cordial support.
