Editor i Assured thari ynti art n advocate for thorough. education, as well among females as males, I take the liberty of communicating, to you and through your columns to those who read your valuable paper, a abort sketch of the examination of tho young Ladies connected , with the Oxford Seminary, which mnst have been to Trustees, !atrons and visitors of the most satis actory character, as it was highly creditable to the pupils.', The progress and termination p . the elimination which I witnessed with much pleasure) furnished a sotiffnetory proof of that which shonld make every North.

The course of instruction in this institution is vari ed, including; ever? thine necessary to make a good English scholar.

A i none the most interest ng parts ot lliv exercisda, was a dialogue in French, in addition to a regular examination upon the snme subject, which gave evidencn ol a proficiency in the construction mhJ the pronunciation of that language high ly commendable. It would he in vnin to attempt any thing mora in this com munication than a mere synopsis of the various studies and the thorough and diversified manner in which the exam inations were conducted. But upon the wrthjeet of RhetoriepAMmrromy,Ment Philosophy and Mythology, it is .noth ing but due to the scholars to any" that they acquitted themselves In tho most handsome manner and deserve the high est credit; and their instructors are en titled to- the gratitude of both parents and guardians who have patronised this school, uniting in themselves the qual ities o seldom found in proprictors"ot schools the ability to leach and impart knowledge with greaf facility, and gov erning their pupils with that pnrennl discipline which -secures all proper res poet and obedience, and at the same TOrtestrenftens 3Mid"irnprotfX!S, those qualities wnicn arc so peculiarly amta hie in riper years, (fflbction and tender ness.) The time occupied in reading compositions by tho girls was truly an intellectual treat, showing that this im portant part of education had been prop erly attended to; and as forming so much of the accomplishment inj after lifo. -In method, purity of style and,legance of " tart iynage," thcsopTodnetrons were entirety unexceptionable, and the high est compliments that could be paid to those so young would be btit a just trib ?!' to 1 Jerved. merit. Doubtless a Mooro or lleinmis, at the snihe are, as utile iiioiiciii oi me pleasure ana Dene til t hat were,iJL Jla w Jrom I hejjrjjens. The closing scene of this interesting occasion has now arrived, and I must oon, take my exit; making my bow to the young Indies at a rsspectful dis tance, and give tho ' hospitable citizens of Oxford a cordial shake' by the hand. The concert at night was numerously attended, and the irirls in their loveli ness and simplicity seemed to engage in this as one ol their evening vocations. Upon the Harp, Guitar and Piano many pertormed the most dithcult pieces, Waltzes, Quadrills, Rondos, Ac, to a delighted auditory; and it must have afforded pleasure to the most exquisite ears, for it seemed that the Vuiusio of the Spheres had begun," and all the muses were in attendance. After witnessing the close of the ex amination, which terminated the exer cises of the session on the 29th of No vember last, I was induced to make a few reflections as to the importance and grand object of education; and it appears with great force that to supply the mind with useful and practical in lor mat ion; to adorn it with all the christian virtues, hy inculcating the doctrines of the Bible hi their purity and simplicity (without bins or avrtariah influence,) is the great end, and. should be the great desidera tum, in the education ouhose who are in so short a lime to occupy positions in society so important and to exert an in fluence the ..effects of which may not J known this sjdu of eternity. : Yours&c.
