CLASSICAL AND MATHEMATICAL 

 SCHOOL. 



EUMFORD ACADEMY, KING WIL- 

 LIAM, VA.— This school is about two 

 miles from Sharon Church, on the stage road 

 between Richmond and Tappahannock. So 

 healthful is the location, that but few cases of 

 serious sickness have occurred in the scheo)

 is spared in providing for the physical com- 

 forts of the pupils; treated in every respect as 

 young gentlemen, they are required to conduct 

 themselves as such. 



The subscriber, who has been engaged eight 

 years in guiding and instructing youth, will be 

 aided by competent assistants. 



The usual English Course, including Che- 

 mistry and Philosophy, an extensive course 

 of Mathematics, and the Latin, Greek and 

 French Languages will be taught. A recess 

 of one week will be given at Easier.

 necessary except lights and stationery, from 

 15th of January to 1st of July, $84; payable

DR. VALENTINE'S RECIPE FOR 

 MAKING ARTIFICIAL GUANO. 



No. 1. Dry Peat,* - - 20 bushels 



No. 2. Wood Ashes, 3 bushels 



No. 3. Fine Bone Dust, 3 bushels 



No. 4. Coined Plaster, - 3 bushels 

 No. 5. NWrate of Soda, - - 40 pounds 

 No. 6. Sal Ammoniac, 22 pounds 



No. 7. Carb Ammonia, 11 pounds 



No. 8. Sulph: Soda?, - - 20 pounds 

 No. 9. Sulph: Magnesia, - 10 pounds 

 " 10. Common Salt, 10 pounds 



* If peat cannot be obtained, use garden mould, 

 or clean virgin soil instead. 



Directions for Mixing. — Mix Nos. 1,2, 3, 

 together— mix Nos. 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, in four or 

 five pails of water, or enough to dissolve the 

 ingredients. When dissolved, add the liquid 

 to the mixture, (1, 2, 3,) and mix as in making 

 mortar. When thoroughly mixed, add No. 4, 

 (the calcined plaster,) which will absorb the 

 liquid and bring the whole to a dry slate. Mix 

 under cover in a dry place — pack so as to ex- 

 clude air— observe the proportions in making 

 small or large quantities. The above receipt 

 will make one ton, which will manure seven 

 and a half acres of land. 



Having furnished the above to a number of 

 farmers who have tested its qualities — many 

 thinking it equal to natural guano — the sub- 

 scribes have made arrangements to furnish 

 any quantity during this season, and will sell 

 the ingredients exclusive of the Peat, Wood 

 Ashes, Plaster and Salt, (articles on every 

 farm,) at the low price of $10 per ton. One 

 sugar hogshead will hold ingredients enough 

 for five tons. All orders will be carefully and 

 promptly executed, and sent to any part of the 

 State.
