YOUNG LADIES' LYCEUM INSTITUTE.
THIS SEMINARY is located on the banks of the
Little Chiquesalunga, about half a mile south of the village of
Mt. Joy, in view of the Philadelphia and Harrisburg rail road,
about seven hours ride from the former, and two hours from the
later place; with both of which and with Lancaster, there is daily
communication.
The Principal and proprietor of this institution
has, for about fifteen years, conducted a Female High School in
the city of Philadelphia; with what success, it may be seen by the
subjoined testimonials. He has, at least, no expectation of
lowering the standard of
Female Education in the new establishment, or of
remitting any efforts, on his part, to place it on an equal
standing with the best Female Seminaries in our country.
It is his object to educate, thoroughly and
practically, the persons, the minds, and the hearts of the youth
entrusted to his care,--as physical, intellectual, social, and
moral beings. And whenever time and capacity admit, to render them
competent to exercise moral discipline, and to impart instruction
with effect to others.
The experiment of one year has clearly proved that
the new arrangement, in a healthful, pleasant, and even delightful
district of the country, removed from adverse and often
controlling influences, will afford him far better means for
affecting these desirable objects, than could be enjoyed in the
sphere of his former labours.
TERMS.
1. The school year will be divided into two
sessions, of five calendar months each, the first commencing on
the first of May, and the second on the 1st of November. No
admission for a shorter term than one session.
2. The charge for board, washing, lights, fuel,
and tuition in the English and classical studies, will be, per
session, payable in advance, $80
3. The extra charge per session will be for Music,
20
For drawing and painting, French and Italian each
15
Charge for bed and bedding, 5
In the discipline of the Seminary, the
members are contemplated as physical, moral and intelligent
beings. Hence the rules are comparatively few all concerns of
minor importance being matters of mutual understanding rather than
of law and penalty.
It scarcely needs be added, that moral suasion,
in some of its various modes, furnishes the chief, and almost the
only means of discipline employed in the Seminary; the salutary
influences of which greatly contributes to the mental improvement,
kind feelings, content and comfort of its members.
4. Besides the usual object of making thorough and
practical proficients in the useful and liberal studies, one
feature of this Seminary is its adaptation to educate Young Ladies
for teachers. For this purpose, lectures are given on the nature
and objects of education, and the modes of instruction,--also on
the principles and methods of moral discipline, with practical
exercises. Young Ladies desirous of possessing this truly liberal
and
interesting accomplishment, may here avail
themselves of it, by spending a session or two in the institution
after completing the usual course.
N. DODGE, A. M. Principal.
TESTIMONIALS.
From a personal acquaintance with the Rev. N.
Dodge, A. M., as well as from his well-known successful devotion
to Female Education, we take great pleasure in expressing our
entire confidence in his ability, and in his fidelity in the
discharge of his professional duties. His plan of instruction is
that which best secures the certain and permanent
improvement of his pupils, based as it is on
strictly philosophical and Christian principles.
While we regret to lose from the profession, in
this city, so valuable a coadjutor as Mr. Dodge, we would
congratulate him in his going to a community which will doubtless
appreciate his worth, and where with the Divine blessing, success
will continue to attend him in his enlarged sphere of operations.

TO THE SUN
On beholding a morning beam on my prison wall.
By TH. J. SUTHERLAND.
Now a prisoner at the Garrison, Toronto U. C.
Why thus obtrude thy glittering ray,
Within my barred and dreary cell;
But to the free proclaim "to day"
My darkness thou canst not dispel--
I, here, no day nor night would know!
No dazzling sun beam--quickly go!
Go, shed thy light o'er half the earth,
And gild the lofty mountain's top.
Awake the grove to music's mirth,
And let the hind the herbage crop--
Call forth the ploughman to the field,
And bid the soil its plenty yield.
To shed thy light on Ocean's wave,
Where loud terrific waters roar;
There thou some shattered bark mayst save,
By showing forth the wished for shore;
And let the shipwrecked seaman gain,
The port long strove for but in vain!
Go bid awaken to the drum,
The soldier armed for fields or strife;
Arouse the citie's busy hum,
And call the living mass to life--
Where gilded crime is need of praise,
And what is hid by wealth's proud blaze.
Go wake the slumbers of the maid,
And break the lover's dream of bliss--
Merchants recall to schemes of trade
And let industry sleep dismiss--
Go bring the miser to behold,
And count again, his mass of gold.
But shed for me no beam so fair,
Nor pierce with light my casements gate;
From every ray my dungeon spare,
Nor make me conscious of my fate,--
Whilst bolts and bars prescribe my lot,
Let night and darkness shroud my cot.

To the Public.
In the latter end of September last, the
undersigned arrived in the city of New York from Ireland at the
instance of her unmarried brother, Charles Henry Sodan, a saddler
by trade, and about 22 years of age. On her arrival in New York,
he had left that place for Pittsburg, where she arrived in
February of the present year, and learned to her sorrow that he
left there in the month of January preceeding. She has not heard
from or of him since; and hereby requests a benevolent American
public to aid her in the discovery of his present place of
residence.
If the said Charles Henry Sodan is living, and
this notice should meet his eye, he is requested to write
immediately to her, and direct to care of John C. Case, Washington
Pa.
>>>Editors of news papers are requested to give
the above a gratuitous insertion, and oblige a female stranger in
distress.

The Housekeeper's Book.
THE Housekeeper's Book, comprising advice on the
conduct of Household affairs in general, and particular directions
for the preservation of furniture, bedding, etc., for the laying
in and preserving of provisions; with a complete collection of
Receipts for Economical Domestic Cookery. The whole carefully
prepared for the use of American Housekeepers. By a Lady, second
edition. The following is one of the many notices which the work
has received:
THE HOUSEKEEPER'S BOOK.
The first edition of this very popular works was
exhausted very soon after its publication, and so much time was
consumed in making the additions for the new
emission, that the housekeepers were getting
impatient; we trust that an edition of five thousand copies will
furnish a sufficient supply for some months to come.
This book has brought "golden opinions; of all
sorts of people. Those who pride themselves on the neatness of
their domestic arrangements, find much that is useful to them
under the head of "General Observations, on commencing
Housekeeping." "Household Duties and Operations," "the Kitchen,"
"Preservation of Plate," and "Preservation of Beds, Carpets, &c."
The economist, as well as the epicure, prizes the book for the
immense number of excellent and economical receipts for Cookery
which it contains. The victualler studies, the part relating to
cutting up animals according to rule.--Those whose education has
been neglected in respect to the general accomplishment of
carving, make the Housekeeper's Book their text book, and pore
over the ingenious diagrams which it contains like a sophomore
over a proposition in Euclid. Young ladies procure copies of it in
order to perfect themselves in the culinary art, and in the
management of flowers and plants in a room; hotel keepers present
a copy to each servant at the time of engaging him, just as our
grandmother used to give us a copy of the "Whole Duty of Man," to
each of the children on setting out in the world; and an oyster
shop keeper, might make a little fortune out of the receipts for
scalloped oysters, on page 104, like the man Salim, in the
oriental story, who made his fortune out of a receipt for
compounding sherbet. No wonder the book sells. It is truly a cash
article--Weekly

From the Lycoming Gazette and Chronicle.
A CHILD—it seems but yesterday,
And yet whole years have passed
Since I was but a tiney thing,
Old time speeds on so fast;
The moss grows o’er our cottage roof,
The ivy clusters wild
The same, yet not as loved by me
As when I was a child!
A child—how much this heart hath felt
The bitterness of change,
Grasping at something new and dear
Yet finding all things strange;
Since by the hedge row’s fragrant side
My steps were wild and free
And the sweet flowers of evening time
Had each a tale for me.
I gather flowers at evening now,
They have a fragrant breath,
Yet ‘neath their tender petals hid
I find the seeds of death;
I could not mark the cankering blight
So carelessly they smiled
Along my path at matin hour
When I was but a child!
A child—how many happy thoughts
Come rushing back with power,
How many faces that I loved
In young life’s morning hour;
Yet deeply have I had since then
The bitter truth revealed,
That they who wear the sunniest smile
Have blackest thoughts concealed,
A child—it seems but yesterday,
And yet whole years have past
Since I was but a tiney thing.
Old time speeds on so fast;
And now I bear the weight of age
And feel time’s festering dart,
Who leaves his furrows on my cheek,
His frosts within my heart.
