A Home and School for boys under fifteen years of age, twenty miles east of Brooklyn, on Long Island. An experience of more than twenty years has convinced the Principal that young pupils ought to be placed in an Institution designed exclusively for them; this school is the practical result of that conviction. It is designed to combine the requisites of a pleasant and healthy Country Home, with a system of Instruction, Discipline, Amusements, Exercises, and General Management, better adapted to the right culture of young pupils than could be possible in a promiscuous school. Visitors pronounce the location delightful; it is proverbially healthy; cool sea-breezes temper the heats of summer; no ague infects the place. A spacious edifice, ample grounds, safe boating and skating ponds afford full scope for the gymnastic exercises; military drill, gardening, riding, boating, swimming, skating, and other amusements are included in the system of Physical Education and Development. The system of instruction secures mental discipline without cramming the young and growing brain. For learning to speak French, the facilities are superior. The very successful experience of the Institution has proved that the pupils learn faster, while retaining a healthy tone of mind and body, in consequence of the Physical Training received, than would otherwise be the case. Especial pains are taken that the pupils shall be comfortable, and provided with an abundance of healthful and nourishing food. The Institute Uniform should be provided at entrance, or as soon after as convenient. It is that of the Seventh Regiment, N.Y. S. M., and costs no more than any other good suit. The year is divided into two terms, of 21 weeks each, commencing May 1st and November 1st, respectively. Pupils can enter at any time, and remain during vacations if desired. Expenses, including Board, English and French Tuition, use of Books, Bedding, Washing, Seat in Church, Military Drill, and Use of Arms, $125.00 per term. Music on the Piano, from $20.00 to $25.00. Foreign pupils enjoy superior facilities for learning English, and pay from $175.00 to $200.00 per term. No other extras. Payments in advance. For further particulars, address E.
