PACKER COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE,

BROOKLYN HEIGHTS, 3L. I-

This Institution claims to give to females all the advantages for thorough and complete education
that are enjoyed by the other sex in our best appointed Colleges.

It is liberally endowed, and is under the patronage of the State.

Its location, in the city of Brooklyn, opposite New York, enables it to command all the educational
resources of the metropolis; while no country village is more quiet, beautiful, or healthy.

THE COURSE OE INSTRUCTION
Is under the direction of A. Crittenden, A.M., who has devoted his whole life to female education.
He is assisted by twenty-four professors and teachers; and the course of instruction embraces the modern
languages, with Latin, the various branches of Literature, History, Mathematics, Chemistry, Natural,
Moral, and Intellectual Philosophy, Music, Drawing, Painting, &c. &c.

THE LABORATORY
Is a model of its kind, and furnished with every necessary article of apparatus.

THE OBSERVATORY
Has an excellent achromatic telescope of six inches object glass. It is equatorially mounted, moved
by clockwork, &c.

THE CABINETS

Are amply provided with minerals, shells, &c. One or two articles of apparatus particularly arrest

the attention of the observer,—one of Ross’s Compound Microscopes, which magnifies 1800 diameters,

also Barlow’s large Planetarium, eleven feet in diameter.

The accommodations for pupils from abroad are intended to afford all the comforts of home, and to

secure for them social, intellectual, and moral culture.
