fniHE.Proprietors of this School were led to
-LL its establishment by the following consid
erations t' ; ::'v:i" ..'-' :.;
In the South-west corner of Aho! countr,
where the School is situated, there is a popu.
lous Valley, uusuroassed in saliihritvnrlimntA
richness of soil, and beaut of natural scenery
surrounded, as it is. bv sinning A,
l glens, and lotty mountains, presenting, at once,
au iuiu is inviting to the lorer of nature or to
the practical Agriculturist. ; A valley, not penf
up by rocky barriers, iwt of easjr access open-
ig m everv oirccuon, inrough free mountain
passes to the large districts of similar rnnntrv
Jn the adjacent counties of Caldwell, Yancey.
auu voncr hi xasi x !nne$see. Hut a valley,
like the whole region around itthough peo
pled by a generous and naturally intelligentrace
sorely oppressed with the evils of iznorance
upon every subject connected with the true in
terests of man here, or his hopes hereafter ; and
destitute of means in itself to remedy these evils
to develops its abundantnatural resources,
and to recover and elevate its depressed and suf
fering population. After sufficient, personal ac.,
quaintance with this state of things, aided by the
careful observations of a resident Missionary,
the Bishop of the Diocese has considered it an
imperative duty to make an immediate effort to
secure to this needy country, the blessings of
Christian Education in all its more essential
branches. .
In doing this, however, it was believed that
another important interest in the State might be
eminently subserved. That the Schools la our
towns and villages are, from their mere position,
exposed more or less to peculiar temptations to
vice, extravagance and insubordination, is a
matter, from painful experience, generally ad
mitted. This has led to the establishment in the
cduntry of a number of excellent Schools al
ready. An additional one, it was thought, might,
in a still more eminent degree, be freed from the
eyils complained of; if situated in a Mountain
district, remote from all publics haunts, at the
same time, uniting in its position, health, cheap,
ness, and rural sports and occupations calcula
ted to develope the physical, while they strength,
en the mental energies, and thus contribute to a
sound and healthy constitution. In connection
wilh4his, another no less interesting object has
naa jis miiuence. i ne low state of our Agricul
ture, particularly in the Middle and Western por
tions ofthe Diocese, is, tm all sides, recognised
and deplored ; but with ndMecided public effort
for a favorable change. Our young men, instead
of being educated with a view to this honorable,
independent, and salutary pursuit, usually come
from our Colleges, impressed with the notion,
that no gentleman can, in the true sense of the
term, be a Farmer. ASchool, therefore, estab
lished in that of the State, where land and free
labor- are cheap, and where every a J vantage is
enjoyed for connecting with such an Institution,
at the least expense nd the greatest facility, an
Agricultural Department, seemed in the: highest
degree, desirable.
1 The Proprietors, therefore, were willing, un
der what appeared to them a duty of peculiar ur
gency, to undergo some risk in the undertaking
But they did not hesitate to believe that the peo.
pie of North Carolina would sustain them in it :
hat Pareuts, in the more settled portions of
the country, when thry contemplated the sub
stantial advantages of the proposed School to
their own sons, would give it their countenance,
so far at least, as to entrust to the care of its
founders, a sufficient number of these sons, to
enable them to extend the blessings of a thor
ough Education in letters, Agriculture and the
Religion of Christ, to one ofthe most needy, as
weu as tne most fertile and beautilul sections of
the State. They determined, thcrefore, to en
ter at once and with energy into the project.
To carry out the determination, they have
purchased-a Farm of some 600 acres nearly
100 cleared embracing the entire Valley,
(called Valle Cruris.) where it is situated less
than a mile from the main JValley of Wataga.
Upon this Farm is a Grist and Saw Mill already,
and plain buildings to accommodate from 40 to
50 persons, to be completed and paid for by the
1st of May next. V
1. The School is to furnish a good English
Education, which is to be thoroughly carried
throughout, and made the foundation of, even
.i. i . . ' j
oiuer oepanmenr.
2. Also, thorough Classical instruction with
French and Spanish, as a preparation either for
College or for any ofthe professions or emploj'
ments of life. '
. 3. Also, complete Agricultural instruction,
theoretical and practical, both in reference toUie
cultivation of the soil, and the raising of Stock.
4. In addition to all this, and as its basis and
governing principle, the knowledge andLprac
tice ofthe Christian religion will be inculcated
in the daily sen ices and instructions of the
Church.
Good classical teachers, in Ancient and Mod
ern Languages, have been employed. Uso a
Farmer, educated in one of the richest Agricul
tural counties in the State of New "York, and
justffrorrui three years oversight of one of its
mosi improvea rarms. in connexion with
this department, lectures and experiments in
Agricultural Chemistry will be given, with an
analysis of soils, and the theory of their im.
prove ment. .
; In respect to Farming, every pupil will be re
quired to labor just sufficient to give: him a
knowledge of the. application of its principles.
In short, it will be an object with the School to
make the Pupils acquainted, so far as possible,
by practice, with the use of every Science taught.
The clothing of the Pupils will be required to
be neat, but made of cheap domestic stuffs, suit
ed to the place and the objects of the School
As no Shops or Stores are near, a supply of all
necessary articles, embracing Books and Sta
tionary, will be kept at the School, and sold just
as they can bo afforded. i 1
To ensure a proper attention to the manners
and comfort of the boys, there will be connected
with the establishment a number of well-edu-cated
ladies the wives and daughteriTbf Cler
gymen and Teachers, with others belonging to
the MUsionary family, within sight of the school
buildings. " ' V , . - '-';
iThere will be no vacation in the school, more
than the Christmas and Easter Holidays, with
now and then a day, as circumstances and the
merits of the Pupils may suggest. - ( - v-
For a terra i of twelve months, and for. instruc
tion, board, washing and fuel, and ,every incu
dental expense except bed, books,' stationary,
and clothing, the charge will be 125 dollars
