Y. It is the settled policy of the Trustees to employ a sufficient number of teachers, with such a sub-division of their labors that each department may have the constant and watchful care of one who is regarded as its responsible head; and also to employ only those who are qualified by education, talent and experience fo their respective departments. The Principals have been for several years connected with the Institution, and are permanently ider. tified with its interests and success. The Trustees are satisfied that such an arrangement, better than any other, secures that promptness, energy and efficiency which are so important in the executive management of any Institution. Mr. Hazeltine combines, with extensive intellectual attainments and a long experience as a teacher, the tender, faithful and watchful care of a Christian parent. Under his direction the solid branches are taught with a thoroughness, efficiency and system, nowhere surpassed. Mr. Fowler has the entire charge of the Music Department, as well as an associate interest in the general management of the Institution. His eminent professional attainments, combined with a Composed, selected and harmonised with an ad libitum accom- liberal education, qualificatioas not often united, have given this paniment for the Piano Forte, department of the Institution a high reputation throughout the country. As a composer, be ranks among the most gifted in the country, and as a teacher, he is pre-eminently at the head of his profession. The standard of excellence in musical taste, indicated by the private and public exhibitions of his pupils, is not often attained, even by those most devoted to this elegant art. As every pupil in this department is under Mr. Fowler's immediate and daily supervision, it must be seen that the advantages here afforded for the cultivation of music are of the highest character.

We were also awarded the First Premium at the Industrial Exhibition held in Richmond, Va., 1855 and 1856 The extensive patronage we have received from EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS throughout this and the Southern States generally, is the best evidence we can offer of the high estimate in which our instruments are held by those who are capable of judging of their merits.
