Private Instruction in Chemical Analysis and in 



Mineralogy and Geology 



The subscriber receives Pupils in the above departments of 

 Scienti6c Knowledge, and is prepared to carry them through such 

 courses of Study and Physical Research, as may suit the wants and 

 objects of each. Gentlemen studying under his care will have ac- 

 cess to a well furnished Private Laboratory, where they will be 

 provided with every facility in the way of Instruments, Reagents, 

 and Books. Daily and accurate recitations are held in the most 

 approved Authors, by which, in connection with constant practice 

 in Operative Chemistry, the Pupil rapidly acquires a knowledge of 

 the branches taught. No time or labor is spared to make the ad- 

 vantages offered truly valuable. 



The public Lectures in Chemistry, Mineralogy, and Geology, by 

 Prof. Silliman, and those on Natural Philosophy, Mechanics, and 

 Astronomy, by Prof. Olmsted, are accessible to the Pupil, while a 

 private course of instruction in Mineralogy and Analytical Chemis- 

 try is now provided for during the year, aided by the most extensive 

 and valuable Cabinets in Mineralogy and Geology, and also ofl 

 Chemical Preparations, besides large Libraries rich in rare Scien- 

 ti6c Works, especially Journals of Science in various languages. 



Those who wish to perfect themselves, chiefly, in the arts ofl 

 Chemical Manipulation, with a view to Public Instruction and Lec- 

 tures, will here enjoy the best advantages. 



New Haven being the centre of learning in southern New Eng- 

 land, offers therefore many attractions to the Student, in addition to 

 its fine climate, its cheap living, and abundant means of quick com- 

 munication to every part of the country. 



In the courses of private instruction, particular attention will be 

 given to the examination of Soils and Manures, and the Analysis 

 of Rocks and Ores, and other means of wealth. 



A knowledge of Chemistry is now deemed indispensable both to 

 the Agriculturist and the Artist. 



Chemical inquiries connected with Agriculture and the Arts and 

 Manufactures, will therefore receive particular attention.
