INDIANAPOLIS FEMALE INSTITUTE-
This Institute is delightfully situated on the corner of Pennsylvania and Michigan sts., one block north of University Park, in the centre of a plot of ground of more than an acre, and most beautifully shaded ; making it a most desirable location for a literary institution. The Institute was established
to impart to its students sound learning, to encourage thorough mental and moral culture, by faithfully inculcating those truths which should ever govern the moral being without sectarian prejudice or bias. The school-rooms are the finest in the State. There are accommodations for one hundred and twenty-five boarding pupils and three hundred day pupils. The entire buildings are warmed by means of new and improved methods, so that all the rooms and halls are kept in a uniform temperature, day and night: In the improvements a large and commodious Calistheneum has been fitted up, so that regular and pleasant ex- ercise under a competent teacher is secured for the pupils at all times.
