eography and Mapping; the use of the
Globes, both table and high-standing; Land Surveying, Mensuration,
Book-keeping, English Grammar, Composition with Precis-writing and
Analysis; and such branches of Natural Science as it may be
practicable from time to time to introduce into the School teaching.
The classification 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 Glass 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.
