The whole number of pupils who have enjoyed the advantagesof the school, for a shorter or longer period, up to September,
1952, is 1,800.
Present n u m b e r o f
Pup&.
The 17th term (or the 1st of the 9th year of the State Normal
School) commenced on the third Monday of September last, an$
the number of pupils in attendance is 276. They are divided into
four classes : sub-juniors, juniors, sub-seniors and seniors; thus
making a course of study pursued during two years. These
classes are again arranged in divisions to suit the convenience of
recitations. The relative standing and advancement of the pupils
will be seen from the following table :

The following is the course of study prescribed for the school,
and a thorough acquaintance with the whole of it, on the part
of the male pupils, is made a condition of graduation:

elementary studies. It is extremely desirable that the pupil, so
admission, should be found prepared for one of the advanced
@lasses. If such could be the general result, it mould render the
school more strictly professional ; and by diminishing the time
needed to complete the course, would tend materially to increase
the number of graduates.
The revision of the course of study and of the text books to be
rased has been gone through with, as intimated in the last report*
Few, if any changes have been found necessary. The Executive
Committee have, however, expressed their decided opinion against
the substitution of lectures in the place of text books, except in
particular designated cases. The former, if thus employed, either
promotes inattention, or if notes.be required to be taken of them,
encroach improperly on the remaining time of the pupils. The
teacher also can hardly entertain proper views of his own knowledge and capacity, who seeks to make them a substitute for the
works of other and more advanced scholars in the respective departments of study. Lectures should be accessaries, not principals, in the State Normal School, with the sole exception of those
bn school teaching.
The Building.
The repairs spoken of in the last annual report were duly completed, and water and gas were introduced throughout the whole extent of the bnilding. The cost of all of these amounted to about
eighteen hundred and fifty-eight dollars, and was defrayed by
means of a special appropriation of eight hundred dollars, an
the balance from the funds of the institution. Unfortunately,
early in the year 1852, the insecurity of the public room was ascertained, and an expenditure of nearly one thousand dollars has
subseqnently been incurred in repairing and strengthening the
same, and in'rebuilding the stairs. The building is now pronounced, by a competent architect, to be in a thoroughly godd and
secure condition,
Indian Pupz
Of the eleven pupils reported to be in the school at the date of
the las report, four of the males have left, and their places wes6
'
dIled by the appointment of two females and one male of the
~ n o n d a ~tribe,
a
and one male of the Tuscaroras. The whole
number then of .the Indian pupils in attendance during the s c h e
lastic year of 1551-2, was eleven-five females and six males.
They are all in the normal department. For their names, see;
document A.
Since the commencement of the present term (September 20th,
1852), the number of Indian Pupils has increased to twelve.
8ex alzd Geographical Bstribution of Pupils.
A comparison of the number of each sex composing the school,
in different years, exhibits an increasing proportion of females.
This is undoubtedly produced by the more inviting and rapid
avenues to enterprise and wealth which opens to young men,
while it indicatesLthathereafter, to an increasing extent, the bistrict Schools must be taught by females.
This is perhaps not to be regretted, as the proof is abundant,
that woman, when well educated, is at least equally fitted with
man for the important and responsible duties of teacher of early
youth.
The e.omrnittee are happy to state, that during the present
term, every county in the State is represelated in the Normal
School, with the following exceptions: Allegany, Broome, Clinton, Hamilton, Lewis, Orleans, Queens, Richmond and Tioga, and
indeed, in several of these last, they have advices that appointments have'been made, but no pupils have as yet presentedthemselves. The vacancies thus occurring, have been supplied by giving
a preference to all applicants not residing within the county of
Albany, or those immediately adjacent, and it is only in this last
resort that those there resident have been adinitted.
The Executive Committee have felt themselves warranted, in
spite of unforeseen expenditures, to promise for each of the terms
of the preseut scholastic year, the sum of one thousand dollars
respectively, to be divided among the re,ouIarIg appointed
pnly as an aid towards the payment of board.
.
At or near the conclusion of the year ending September, 1852,
several important changes occurred. The Principal, Dr. Perkins,
to the great regret of the Executive Committee, resignedhis situation. I t has been supplied by the appointment of a gentleman?
long known as a successful Instructor in Western New-Pork.
The following is a full list of the present officers of the School,
with their appointments.
Samuel B. Woolworth, A. M.,
Principal.
Silas T. Bowen, A. M.,
Teacher of htellectual and Jloral Science and Rhetoric,
Sumner 0. Webb,
Teacher of Arithmetic and Boolclceepi7tg.
Teacher of
Truman H . Bowen,
the Science of Gouernment, Grammar and Vocal &I&&.
James R.Salisbury, M. D.,
BhysioZogy, Natural Philosophy and Chemistry.
John Felt, Jun'r.,
Teacher of Grammar and Algebra.
Elizabeth 0.n a m e ,
Teacher o f Reading and History.
Ann Maria Bstrom,
Teacher of Drawing, History and Geography.
I t may be proper to add in this place, that Mr. ~ i l a s k Bowen,
.
having received an advantageous appointment in one of the principal cities of a neighboring State, will leave the institutiou at the
close of the present term, with the best wishes of the committee.
This vacancy will be taken advantage of, as an introduction to
variou_schanges in the scheme of tuition, which are deemed advisable andmore consonant, than at present, to the proper plan of
a State Normal School.

No. 20.1
Change of Vacations.
The change, introduced nearly two years since, continues to be
generally acceptable, as far as the committee can ascertain. They
have recently agreed that the vacations at the holidays, which
have been unprofitably extended to a meek, shall hereafter be confined to Christmas and New-Year's day.
Library and J2pparatus.
According to a report from Mr. Webb, Librarian, beariag date
July 8, 1852, the miscellaneous library remains as heretofore
reported, with au addition of fifteen volumes and sixteen pamphlets. The total will therefore be 759 volumes and 127 pamphlets.
There have been added to the text-book library, during the
pear, by purchase, 670 volumes, and by donation, 167 volume's.
A large portion of the volumes purchased, were text-books in
music, the private property pf the teaoher in that department,
and for the use of which, a Small stipend was paid by the pupils.
The Executive Committee disapproved of this arrangement, and
purchased all the copies in use at a low rate. The additions,
therefore, of text-books, with those previously reported (1,627
volumeg), will increase the present number to 6,464 volumes.
The chemical and philosophical apparatus are reported to be
in good order, and the teacher in that department is allowed to
procure from time to time such articles as are needed for his
experimental course.
The invenkiries required' to be opened and kept of books and
apparatus have to certain extent been quite satisfactory, but
they are required to be particularly revised and rearranged under
the direction of the principal.
This school is in a very flourishing condition, under the ear@
of its present excellent arld efficient head, AMOS M. KELLOGG,
whose nameshas not until now been mentioned, but who should
.
strictly be considered as one of the Faculty of the Normal
School. During the last year a number of additional seats have
been added, and the present complement at the time of making
this report is :

Pay pupils,.
Free pupils,
The pay pupils are admitted at $10 per term, or $20 a year.
f t is a subject of serious consideration with the committee, wheP
ther the number of free pnpils should not be still more diminished. Certainly, with the facilities of instruction afforded by the
city of Albany, this would.seem proper, and at, the same time the
charge of partic9larly favoring the hilabitants here would be at
wc;! obviated.
'
The course of instruction and government purs~zedby Mr,
Kellogg is underBtood to be eminently satisfactory, while at the
same time, ample opportunities are aflorded to the pupils of the
Horrnal ~ c h o b to
l inform themsely,es in the practice of teaching.

Resignation of Dr. Perlcins.

Dr. Perkins was one of the principal inst~uctorsat the opening
of the school, and on the death of Mr. Page, was appointed to
the office of Pdncipal. He has ever proved a faithful instructor,
assiduous in promoting the advancement of his pupils, and careful in whatever related to the well being of the Institution. The
Executive Committee bear full testimony to his private worth
and public services.

But the committee have in a more especial manner to express
their feelings on the resignation of Dr. HawIey. The first euperintendent of common schools in the State of.New-York-one who
watched and labored to form and fashion the system which is
now one of the boasts of the commonwealth, and wlao,.from year.

to y e a , has more and more identified himself with the progress
of education in all its departments-it was hoped that a life-long
elaim might have been held on him to continue in the work.
His loss is already deeply felt in advisiog and originating useful
measures. The committee part with him with unaffected regret.

-The Normal School for the State of Rew-Pork was established
by an act of the Legislature, in 1844, for the instruction and
practice of Teachers of Common Schools in the science of Education and- the art of Teaching." It was first established for five
years, as an experiment, and went into operation on the 18th
of December, 1844, in a building provided gratuitously by the
city of Albany, and temporarily fitted up for that purpose. The
first term opened with twenty-nine pupils, and closed with ninety-seven. The number in attendance, the second term, was about
two hundred. The average number is now about two hundrqd
and thirty.
I n 1848, an act was passed by the Legislature f~lrthe permanent establishment of the State Normal School," appropriating
$15,000 towards the erection of a suitable building. The following year, an additional appropriation of $10,000 was made for its
completion. , A large and commodious edifice,,containing a daelling-house for the Principal, was accordingly erected on the
corner of Lodge and Howard streets, adjoining the State Geological and Agricultural rooms. To this building the school was removed on the 31st of July, 1849.
The object of this institution is to improve teachers of common
schools; and the course of study, and the conditions of admission, have been adopted with reference to that object.
Each county in the State is entitled to send to the school a
number of pupils (either male or female) equal to twice the number of members of the Assembly in such county. The pupils are
appointed by the town superintendents, at a meeting called by
the superintendent of the county town for that purpose. This
[Assembly, No. 20.1
3
meeting should be held, and the appointments made, at least two
weeks before the commencement of each term, or as soon as information is received as to the number of vacancies. A list of
t h e vacancies at the close of each term will be published in circular form, and also in the principal Albany papers.
Persons failing to receive appointments from their respective
counties should, after obtaining testimonials of a good moral character, present themselves, the first day of the term, for examination by the faculty. If such examination is satisfkctory, they will
receive an appointment from the executive committee, without
regard to the particular county, provided any vacancies exist. I n
such case, the pupil will not receive mileage.
Pupils once admitted to the school will have the right to remain until they graduate, unless they fofleit that right by voluntarily vacating their place, or by improper conduct.
The following is the form of certificate of appointment which
ought to be given to each pupil appointed by the town superintendents :
'
At a meeting of the town superintendents of the county of
held at
on the
day of
for the purpose of filling
vacancies in the State Normal School,
was duly
appointed a pupil of that institution.
(Signed by the chairman and secretary.)
QUALIFICATIONS
OF APPLICANTS.
Females sent to this school must be at least sixteen years of
age, and males eighteen, and must be residents of this State.
.
.
The selections should be made with reference to the moral
worth and abilities of the candidates. Decided preference ought
to be given to those who, in the judgmentof the superintendents,
give the highest promise of becoming the most efficient teachers
of common schools. It is also desirable that those, only, should
be appointed who have already a good knowledge of the eommon
branches of study, and who intend to remain in the school until
they graduate.
I
I
I
All the pnpils, on entering the school, are required to sign the
followiag declaration :
l 6 We, the sacbscri6ers9hereby D ~ L A R E ,that it is our intention t~
devote oursdtres to the business of teaching district schools, and thud
our d e object i~reswfing to this Strormad SchwZ is the better to pr+
pare ourse&veslfor that importrrnt duty.''
As this shonld be signed in good faith on the part of the pupils,
they should be made acq3~aintedwith its import before they are
appointed. I t is expected of the superintendents that they win
select such as will sacredly fulfil their engagements in this
particulas.
Pupils, on eaatering the school, are subjected to aa thorough
examination, and are classified aec~rdingto their previous attaigmenti. The time required to accomplish the course will depend
upon the attainments and talents of the pupil, varying from one 80
four terns. Very few, howeverg need expect to graduate in one
term.
The following table will show the sum a strident of each
county will receive at the end of the term a$ travelling expenses:

not only the teachers to much trouble, but themselves also to the
rigors of a private examination. After the first week, no student,
except for the strongest reasons, mill be allowed to enter the
schtool~
