eography and Mapping; the use of the Globes, both table and high-standing; Land Surveying, Mensuration, Book-keeping, English Grammar, Composition with Precis-writing and Analysis; and such branches of Natural Science as it may be practicable from time to time to introduce into the School teaching. The classification of the School, and the System adopted, secure all the advantages of emulation and honourable rivalry. THE SCHOOL OF SCIENCE DEPARTMENT.--Familiar Lectures are given occasionally during the Winter Months on Electricity, Galvanism, Magnetism, Chemistry, Telegraphy and Printing. ELECTRICITY.--Is shown and explained by the use of a large Plate Glass Electrifying Machine, next in size smaller than the one at the Royal Polytechnic, with all the apparatus required. CHEMISTRY.--The Elucidation of Principles and the explanation of Chemical Phenomena are made as clear and concise as possible, by many experiments. MAGNETISM.--This is so very instructive a branch of Science that many experiments are well understood by the Pupils, both in the use of the Natural Magnet and the Electro-Magnet. GALVANISM.--There are several Galvanic Batteries in use, so that the Boys accustomed to them can readily apply a particular sort to any experiment. TELEGRAPHY.--Communication is carried on at any distance chosen, or from one part of the house to another. PRINTING.--This is likewise thoroughly explained by the use of a Press and all the apparatus attached, including several cases of Type. Mr. CHAMBERLAIN, having full command of the School of Science Department, is enabled, without engaging the services of Professional Men (who generally make a very high charge), to give suitable Lectures without increasing the Fees as contained below. Parents will thus see that the lectures _being both amusing and instructive_ must be conducive to the _expansion of the mind_, at the same time making an _agreeable change_ in the general School routine.
