Outfit, Pocket Money.
Boarders furnish their own napkin rings, towels, lamps, brushes and toilet articles-also a blanket in Winter. They should come pro- vided with overshoes, umbrella, and a supply of substantial clothing. Articles to be washed must bear the owner's full name. Books and Stationary can be had at the usual retail prices.
Pupils will be furnished with pocket money and clothing only when funds are supplied for that purpose. Running into debt is regarde.l as a serious offence against the laws of the school. Extravagant expenditures add neither to a boy's respectability, nor to his hap- piness. The best students do not spend money foolishly. The least desirable members of a school are invariably those who squander money most recklessly. Their pleasure seeking not only interferes with patient study but unfits them for it, besides leading them into scenes and companionships of questionable propriety.
How much money a boy shall have can best be settled by his parents. Should it become evident to us that he is flinging away character as well as money, they will be notified of the fact. Whenever a boy's letters home become clamorous for money with- out stating distinctly how it is to be expended, or when he hesitates to state in detail how the last remittance was disposed of, parents may begin to entertain serious apprehensions.
For innocent pleasures, and for the cultivation of true generosity. we would give boys a liberal allowance, but for vicious indulgences nothing whatever.

GENERAL OBSERVATIONS.
eneral
Obserbations.
In the preceding pages, the Principal of this school has en- deavored to present an outline of his views respecting the proper training of youth, and to indicate his method of carrying out those views.
He has had under his care and instruction since 1850 nearly 3,000 boys and young men. Of this number more than 200 have been fitted for, and admitted to full standing in the following Colleges and Universities : Amherst, Harvard, Yale, Williams, Union, Rutgers, Princeton, La Fayette, Delaware, Franklin and Marshall, Pennsylvania, Dickinson, Jefferson, Washington, Pa., Washington, Va., Westminster, Allegheny, and University of Michigan. Fifty of these pupils are now in the Christian ministry-others are pre- paring-and many more are benefiting and blessing the world in their various callings.
As a father, the Principal knows something of the fond hopes and trembling anxieties that cluster around the children of the household. He believes that every right minded parent in sending his son to school desires to see him fitted for a useful, happy manhood. He can not therefore calmly contemplate the spectacle of a son disappointing the dearest hopes of his parents by madly flinging away the bright- est possibilities of his own future, nor can he consent that a pure boy shall be debased by daily intercourse with vicious associates. For that reason he respectfully yet firmly declines to receive as men- bers of his household any who are so hardened in evil courses as to alarm the fears of their best friends. His position and his duty alike forbid that restless and turbulent spirits should be allowed to usurp authority, or to stamp their bad impress on the school. As an Asylum for the treatment and cure of boys destitute of Common Sense, or devoid of decency, this Institution holds out no induce- ments. It is not intended for such characters. It is intended to be as far as possible a well ordered home, where boys and young men, who feel an honest pride in maintaining a good character, shall have abundant opportunity to bestow loving labor upon their daily tasks, and to enjoy innocent pleasures, without being molested or interfered with by noisy, profane, or quarrelsome fellows. Idleness, mischief, and lawlessness will not be tolerated. "School tricks" of every grade indicate a low moral tone. To practice them is "neither brave, polite, nor wise"-nor safe.

GENERAL OBSERVATIONS.
It is not professed nor promised to shield boys against all temp- tations-that were impossible-but it is proposed in good faith to employ such checks and restraints that no one can go far astray except as he himself deliberately puts himself into the ways of evil. Should any pupil persist in disregarding these restaints, or breaking over them ; his connection with the school must cease. Whether he shall be privately removed, or publicly dismissed, will be deter- mined by the nature of his offences.
It is of far more consequence to have the moral atmosphere of the school pure, than to have all the rooms filled with students.
A teachable, obedient spirit ; high regard for truth and honesty ; purity of "heart, speech and behavior ;" and, a proper respect for the courtesies of life, are considered indispensable to those who wish to retain membership in this school.
Boys and young men disposed to cultivate these virtues and graces are always welcome. They will be well cared for, kindly treated, and in every way made as happy as possible. It will be the pleasure of the Principal and of those associated with him to do all that kindness, care, and conscientious fidelity can do towards fitting them for the duties, activities, and enjoyments of a pure, healthy, happy manhood.
Parents are cordially invited to visit the school.
All communications addressed to the Principal will receive prompt attention.

BRIEF HISTORY.
Chambersburg Academy, Pa.
This school for Boys and Young Men is situated in the Borough of Chambersburg, fifty-two miles from Harrisburg; twenty miles from Hagerstown, Md .; and thirty-nine miles from Martinsburg, Virginia. The town is confessedly one of the most beautiful in the State, and is justly famed for the intelligence, morality and refined social culture of its citizens. In point of healthfulness, the location possesses unusual attractions.
The Academy buildings are situated on an eminence command- ing a view of the town and of the surrounding country, with the North, South and Blue Mountains in the distance.
Three daily passenger trains each way make close connection with the railroads centering at Harrisburg; also, with the Western Maryland, and Weverton Branch railroads at Hagerstown, and with the Baltimore and Ohio at Martinsburg.
Des- Boys on the line of the Cumberland Valley, Mont Alto, and South Penn'a Railroads can come from home by the morning, and return by the evening train. School tickets are issued to them at half rates.
BRIEF HISTORY.
Few schools in the State are older, and few have done a more im- portant educational work.
About the year 1796, Captain Benjamin Chambers set apart two lots in the plan of the town, and donated them for educational purposes. On the 22d of August, 1797, a Charter was obtained from the State, and the same year Chambersburg Academy was opened under James Ross, author of "Ross's Latin Grammar," as Head Master.
Rev. David Denny, Pastor of the Falling Spring Presbyterian Church, for thirty-eight years, in addition to his ministerial labors, had charge of the Academy from 1800 to 1826.
Rev. D. V. M'Lean, afterwards President of La Fayette College, was his successor.

ARRANGEMENTS FOR COMFORT, &C.
Rev. Dr. Crawford had charge of the Classical Department for several years, until the winter of 1830, when he was called to a chair in the University of Pennsylvania.
Rev. James F. Kennedy was Principal from 1850 to 1855.
The intervals were occupied by Messrs. John Davis, Van Lear Davis, Rev. Gracy and others, but the dates of their connection can- not now be ascertained.
The Building, Archives, Library, Philosophical, Chemical and Astronomical apparatus were all destroyed by the great fire of 1864.
A new building was completed in 1868, and school opened under the present Principal in September of the same year. In 1871, an additional building was erected to meet the growing wants of the school. There are now ample accommodations for thirty-six board- ing, and seventy-five day pupils. A large school-room, and three class-rooms afford every needed facility for successful study and in- struction.
ARRANGEMENTS FOR COMFORT, HEALTH, STUDY, &C.
Boarding pupils occupy one set of rooms during the day, and another at night. The study rooms, designed for four pupils, are furnished with everything necessary for comfort and quiet study. They are at all times under the charge of a teacher.
The Sleeping Chambers are well ventilated, warmed by furnaces, and kept in order by servants. They are furnished with carpet, comfortable beds, chairs, washstand, toilet set, and dressing bureau. The smaller rooms are occupied by two boys; the larger, by four. All these rooms are in the building occupied by the Principal and his family.
The table is supplied with an abundance of healthful, nutritious food, carefully selected from a well-stored market, or brought fresh from the country by special arrangement.
In the general scheme for the day, eight hours are allotted to study and recitation; eight to recreation, and eight to rest. Boys are neither overworked nor suffered to waste their time in idleness. Saturday is given as a holiday, except,to those who are required to make up deficiencies at that time. Legal holidays are subject to the same conditions. The last Friday afternoon of each month is also allowed, provided the conduct and studiousness of pupils has been such as to merit special favor.
Pupils whose habits of study are imperfectly formed, pursue their studies in the school-room, under the eye of a teacher. The privi- lege of preparing lessons in their own rooms is accorded to those whose studiousness and deportment are satisfactory; neglect of duty, or disorderly conduct forfeits this privilege.
10
COURSE OF STUDY.
PRINCIPLES OF ADMINISTRATION.
The school in all its appointments is under the personal care and supervision of the Principal. The Teachers, and employees of the establishment, are all chosen with special reference to fitness for the position they are to fill. The following aims are kept steadily in view: ' =%
1. To take good care of boys.
2. To teach them how to study successfully.
3. To give each pupil such training as may be best adapted to his needs and capacity.
4. To assist him in forming a strong, manly character.
Whatever tends to secure these ends is welcomed and cherished; whatever is at variance with them can receive neither favor nor encouragement. Idleness, mischief and lawlessness cannot be tolerated. Boyish heedlessness may be excused, but deliberate diso- bedience and deliberate wickedness-never.
On questions of right and wrong there is no appeal from the de- cisions of the Bible. To its rules, for the regulation of "heart, speech and behavior," all our pupils are required to pay respectful deference. Any who cannot, or will not do this, had better seek an education elsewhere.
THE COURSE OF STUDY
Is designed to afford young men the very best advantages for securing such intellectual culture as may fit them properly for College, for va- rious business pursuits, for teaching, or for the study of a profession if a collegiate course is not attainable. Young men whose time is limit- ed, or who are deficient in some studies whilst advanced in others, can select a course adapted to fit them for the end they have in view.
The "Common branches," as they are often called, are, in our judg- ment the essentials of a sound education. A good speller either is, or may become a good reader; and a good reader invariably makes better progress in his studies than a poor one. Until a boy can ac- quit himself with credit in the Spelling, Reading and Grammar of his own language, we shall not attempt to teach him any other; nor is there any gain to him in attempting Algebra or Geometry before proficiency in Arithmetic has fitted him for these severer studies. Many a boy's education has been marred by his attempting impossi- ble feats.
Such studies being assigned as pupils are prepared to pursue with profit to themselves, they will find us always ready to assist, in- struct and encourage them in their efforts to secure high mental culture.

RECITATIONS, LITERARY EXERCISES, &C.
RECITATIONS
Are conducted: (1) To ascertain what amount of preparation the pupil has devoted to the lesson-what he has thought about it, and how; (2) To secure for him by daily practice the habit of stating clearly and intelligently what he has learned; (3) To give him such sug- gestions, illustrations and explanations as may be necessary to an in- telligent comprehension of the subject under consideration.
Important definitions, rules and principles are required to be com- mitted to memory and accurately recited. In other respects the pu- pil's own language is preferred; but rambling and fragmentary statements are not accepted as a substitute for the plain language of the book. It is his to learn the lesson assigned. To put lifeinto the dry words of the text-book, so that they may become a quickening power in the mind of the pupil-that is the teacher's part. And this can only be done successfully where teacher and taught second the labors of each other. In order to become learned boys must study, and it may as well be understood that study is not play, but work-oftentimes hard work. Frequently the difficulty lies not so much in the lesson itself as in the boy's aversion to patient labor. That aversion being conquered, study becomes a pleasure.
LITERARY EXERCISES-LIBRARY_CABINETS, &C.
Pupils are not called upon for written compositions until they have had an opportunity of learning from text-books the leading principles of the art. A portion of each week is devoted to exer- cises in Elocution, varied by an occasional Debate. There are also frequent opportunities of hearing distinguished Lecturers.
The nucleus of a Library, and of Cabinets for Mineralogical and Geological specimens, has been formed. For valuable donations of books and minerals during the past year, our thanks are hereby gratefully tendered to Dr. S. E. Duffield, Hon. John Scott, Hon. G. W. Welsh, W. O. H. Scully, and to the Bureau of Education.

GOVERNMENT-RELIGIOUS CULTURE.
THE GOVERNMENT
Of the School is kind and parental, seeking only the highest good of those entrusted to our care. The rules are few and simple. A well-disposed boy finds no difficulty in obeying them. An evil-dis- posed boy cannot transgress them with impunity. When punish- ment becomes necessary it is administered solely with a view to cor- recting what is wrong. Severe measures are not resorted to until milder means have been found ineffectual. Should any pupil per- sist in wrong doing, his parents will be notified; and, if their influ- ence combined with ours does not effect a reformation, his connec- tion with the school must cease.
RELIGIOUS CULTURE,
Reading of Scripture and Prayer constitute the opening exercises of school every morning. Boarders attend family worship morning and evening. They also attend Church and recite a Bible lesson on Sabbath. Parents will please designate at the opening of the ses- sion what church they prefer their sons to attend. Unless such preference is expressed they will be expected to attend with the Principal and his family-Presbyterian. Pupils are not allowed to roam about on the Sabbath, nor to spend the day without regular attendance at some place of worship.
A portion of the Bible lesson is required to be committed and re- cited, after which the teacher adds such remarks as may be deemed most appropriate. How shall a young man make his life pure and happy day by day? Is his course now upward or downward? Where shall he be, and what, as the everlasting ages roll on? These and kindred questions possess a solemn personal interest in presence of which controversial points may well be set aside.
So important do we consider this exercise as a means of moral cul- ture that no one under our immediate care will be excused from reg- ular attendance.
