MR. CHAMBERLAIN, PRINc.i.p.aL.

MONS. H. FRANcOIS, FRENCH PROFESSOR.

MISS LANE, AFTERNOON JUNIOR CLa.s.s.

The object Mr. Chamberlain has in view is to supply a thoroughly liberal Education. The general School Course comprises Biblical History, Ancient History, the History and Literature of our own Country; the Greek, Latin and French Languages; Geometrical, Isometrical, Architectural and Landscape Drawing; Euclid, Algebra and Trigonometry; Navigation, Geography and Mapping; the use of the Globes, both table and high-standing; Land Surveying, Mensuration, Book-keeping, English Grammar, Composition with Precis-writing and a.n.a.lysis; and such branches of Natural Science as it may be practicable from time to time to introduce into the School teaching.

The cla.s.sification 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 Gla.s.s 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.

EXTRAS.--PER ANNUM.

CRUCES AND CRITICISMS: an Examination of Certain Pa.s.sages in Greek and Latin Texts. By WILLIAM W. MARSHALL, M.A., B.C.L., F.R.S.L., of the Inner Temple, formerly Scholar of Hertford College, Oxford. Demy 8vo., Cloth 2s. 6d., Paper Covers 2s. London: ELLIOT STOCK, 62, Paternoster Row, E.C. 1886.

_BY THE SAME AUTHOR._

PLUTARCH'S LIVES OF THE GRACCHI, translated from the text of Sintenis, with Introduction, Marginal a.n.a.lysis, and Appendices. By WILLIAM W. MARSHALL, B.A., of the Inner Temple, late Scholar of Hertford College, Oxford. Crown 8vo., paper covers, 1s. 6d., or cloth, 2s. Oxford, JAMES THORNTON. 1881.

"Mr. MARSHALL has succeeded in cutting out of Plutarch a very neat piece of biography and presenting it in a pleasant English dress, with a careful introduction and a few useful Appendices. The English is the editor's, and is very agreeable reading. The Introduction is a clever account of Plutarch, with a critical notice of his work, his merits, and his inaccuracies, together with a summary sketch of the affairs of Rome when the Gracchi came into notice. The student of Roman history will be glad of this small, but carefully edited, account of the two brethren."--_School Guardian._

THE LATIN PRAYER BOOK OF CHARLES II.; or, an Account of the "Liturgia" of Dean Durel, together with a Reprint and Translation of the Catechism therein contained, with Collations, Annotations, and Appendices, by the late Rev. CHARLES MARSHALL, M.A., Rector of Harpurhey; and WILLIAM W. MARSHALL, B.A. Demy 8vo. Cloth.

1882.

A few remaining copies may be obtained from THOMAS FARGIE, 21, St. Ann's Square, Manchester. Price, 7s.

6d.

The late Very Rev. J.S. HOWSON, D.D., Dean of Chester, writes (July 9, 1883):--

"I have much pleasure in stating that I regard the work of Mr. MARSHALL and his son upon the Latin Prayer Book of Charles II. as a publication of great importance. The volume has been of much use to me personally; and I believe its value will be felt by all who study it candidly and carefully."

"A liturgical, historical, and theological work of great value, creditable alike to the care, industry, and scholarly attainments of the editors. No clergyman should engage in liturgical controversy without consulting its pages."--_Church Advocate_.
