In rest a nee to the sub scriber himself, he has had charg ; of Schools and Academic? in th is State during a period of ten years, and begs leave to refer, if i 'cessary, to Col. Thomas N. Hamilton of Atheu ; and the Rev. Juiiah Harris, before whom he ha .been examined by a classical gentleman of the North, before he could be admitted to take the b ctorship of tne Columbia County Academy, whici he had for three years. Should a class of eight o ten young men be found, be could devote two 1 mrs to their in struction each day', at a time that ould not inter fere with his School.
