General Information.
Summary.
NOR;\IAL

LOCATION.

C_'Lu'onXLI,is beautifully situated ou the Monongahela River,
fifty-five miles from Pittsburgh.
It is a very plea~ant borough, of
quite recent growth; and the surrounding country is picturesque,
healthy and fertile. But instead of ~peaking of ourselves, we copy
the following paragraph- from an editorial in the Jlonongahela City

" The sentiment of the town is highly moral. -Its people are
largely church members: no whiskey is, or has been sold there, and
we doubt if a suurle rowdv di~oTace~its streets.r An air of refinement and taste ch~racteri;.;es thg homes of its people. Long avenues
of shade trees line the streets, and even the humblest home is not
without some vines and everOTeells,flowers or shrubbery, to indicate
refinement and taste, whibt"'frolll many a window comes the tinkle
of a.piano, or the swell of an organ. .
It is this taste and public spirtt which has built up in its midst
the XOH~LI.L
COLLEGE. As a people, the citizens. of California and
Greenfield are not wealthv , There i~ po,.;sibly not one very rich
person ill the place-and :i-etthey have taxed themselves by heavy
subscriptions to build this COllege-at once an honor to the valley
and the State. We cannot but admire their public spirit and enterprise,
Already its effects are felt.
Good citizens are continually
lwing added to its population, Llrawn thither by this very spirit of
devotion to public g;ood,and the quiet orrler and Christian manners
of its people.
It must not be inferred that the towns are dull or ltfeless. The
?usy hum of industry is heard on every corner, and with its growmg p~pul?-~ion,manufactures and merchandizing; come apace.
. ~'e visited the Normal College-and under the polite guidance
of the gel~t~emanly President and Profe~Rors, were shewn through
the magniticent bnlldius-, After a careful uotinz of all the facts
and SU~ToUlH1ing"
we think the following rea~o;;s may be given
why, ~lllSInstitution has been, and will continue to be, so popular:
Ihe teach~rs are not chosen by sectarian or political influence,
but for l?ecuhar fitness in the places they hold.
IIence, every
student tecls that the School is conducted for the benefit of the
pUl?il,;,and for no o.ther purpose-so they are not only themselves
satisfied, hut they iuflueru-e their friends to come and enjoy the

same advantages.
Also, from the very nature of the School and its
SUl'l'oundinO"~,most students, by Comparino- it with others, are convinced that they can accomplish more her~ in the same length of
time, at less expense, than elseWhere.
Both sexes enjoy equal rights and privilege~.
We find a judicions restrniut from social intercourse, but only enough to promote
good order, good feeling and earuest work. At the same time the
sexes are allowed to mingle with that freedom which alone is so
advantageous to moral purity and a proper emulation always engeudered by such association.
The methods of instruction seem to be thorough-going
and
practical.
Tile spirit of the School is hard work, and rigid economy
of time; show and displuy seem to have no place-and
,0 dress,
caste uud extravagance, those triple evils of modern times, are not
fostered, bnt eoudem norl.
Boarding is quite rea~onable, and the Directory make every
po~sibre arrangement to dlrniufsh expenses.
In this, as in all the
rules for its management and govel'lIment, the College has the
moral support aud hearty sympathy of the people."
Foul' U. S. Mail Packets ply daily between Pittsburgh
and
Brownsville, Mopping on all trips at the wharf of California.
The
:Yational Road, from 'Wheeling to Cumberland, is but three miles
distant, and lines of stages afford eomll1unication with the whole
country.
Studcnt~ having R. R. connections with Pittsburgh, will
do best to go there, and then take, at the ~Ionongahela wharf, one of
the Packet" which depart twice a day. But there will be railroad
communication, ere long, by the Pittsburgh, Virginia & Charleston
R:lil way, which Is in rapiI process of construction, and will run
through this place. 'I'he IIempfield R. R. has al 0 been located, and
will oro '3 the ri ver but a few miles below us, affording quick commnnication east and west.
TVe hope, therefore,
soon to have
abundant facilities of travel to and fro.

This Iristitution is the STATE XOIOIAL CITOOLof the Tenth
Di trict, which consists of the counties of 'Washington, Greene,
Fayette and Somerset.
The propel' charter for the Xormal SChool
of this District, was granted by the Legislature some years ago.
The , tate has also murln two appropriations, one of $15,000, and a
second of $10,000, during- the recent session of the LegiSlature.
The people of Califomia aurl vicinity have been yery liberal, according to their mean", so that with the help of the first appropriation, a
central building was begun, and has recently been completed, at a
C03tof more than $50,000.
'l'hi is a lUagnific nt edifice, bealltif~ll
and masstvo in its architecture, and admirably Planned. ,after the
middle Tuscan order.

CLASSICAL COURSE.
This course adds to the Elementary and Scientific Studies, the
usual Collegiate Course in Latin and Greek.
IIarkness' Text-books
in the Latin, and Bullions' in the Greek, are used.
A promising class in this course has been formed, and is making
excellent headway, both in the Latin and Greek. The aim is to give
an effective drill in the paradigms, conjugations and syntax, and to
allow the recitation of no more than can be mastered, in parsing and
analysis,
Pupils are required, especially in recitlnz the Greek to
wr~te out, on the blackboard, all the different para~1igms and cO~jngatlon~, as well as the principal parts and roots of the verbs.
A class in German, also, has been stndying that language for
the last two sessions, and especial attention is paid to it.

It will be observed, that in the year 1873-74, there are only two
Sessions announced, and no Institute Session is provided for. It is
thought best to dispense with the special Institute Sessions. But, for
the accommodation of those who touch in the Winter, and desire to
attend during the Summer, we propose to make special prooision. for
such to enter about the first Of JI!I?/, tmd. remain the last two months of
the Sprinrl and Summer Term. 'I'his, too, will be of a great deal more
benefit to them than attendance upon a special Institute Session.
According to our new arrangement, the hot months of July
and August will hereafter be thrown into vacation.

Expenses.
TUITIONfor the Institute Session, *6.0a; for the 'Vinter Term
of five months, $15.00; for the Spring 'I'erm of ISi3-three and onehalf months, $10.50. After the next Spring Term, both sessions of the
School Year will be five months each, with tuition the same for
both.
Tuition for those entering for special preparation, as provided in remarks on the preceding Calendar, $1.00 per week.
Tuition for Music on Piano Forte or Melodeon, $12.00-for twentyfour lessons. Use of Instrument (two hours pel' day), 25 cents per
week.
There are no extra charges for contingencies or advanced studies. Students can enter at any time during a session; but no deduction will be made for the part of the Session which may have passed,
unless it has been half.
Deduction for absence of a few days after
entering will not be allowed, except in cases of protracted sickness,
or sudden providence, of which the circumstances must be reported
at the time of their occurrence.
Inoariobb), tuition must be paid in
advance.

BOARDING .
Abundant accommodations for Students ean be obtained in private families; although, at au early day, the College will have Dormitories and a Boarding Hall. Boarding, per week, is $3.75. Washing, 80 cents per dozen. Students provide their own light.
A limited number of such as may wish to board themselves, can
flud aecommodations by writing some time before their coming.
'I'hey will then be informed of what articles they must bring with
them. 'I'his method reduces the expenses to one-half of boardlug,
