The Institution has already a valuable supply, chiefly through donation, of which are so important for its full success.

As the rooms originally designed for them were becoming insufficient, a Friend recently offered $1000, on condition that the State would appropriate an equal sum, for providing ampler accommodations by an enlargement of the School Building. The appropriation was granted, and a contract has been made for the enlargement before the next term. There will then be room for long ranges of book-shelves and cabinet-cases, for filling which the School must rely chiefly upon the continued liberality of its Friends and the Friends of Education, especially of those who* appreciate the claims of Higher Female Education with particular reference to the work of educating others.* these material aids, of education,

* Contributions of books and pamphlets for the Library, of articles of philosophical and chemical apparatus, and of minerals, shells, and other specimens of natural history for the Cabinet, will be gratefully received, and will make an important addition to the means of usefulness which the Institution already possesses.

School Committees and Superintendents will confer a special favor by sending copies of their Annual Reports and other educational documents; and Instructors in Institutions of every grade, by sending copies of their Catalogues and Circulars.
