# THE next of this new and
popular School will open
ON MONDAY,JANUARY 14
and continue five months.
Competent Teachers will be in attendance.
Board can be had with the Principals and private
families of near residences on reasonable terms.
For farther particulars send for a catalogue.
There are seven reasons why this School com
mends itself to public notice in preference to many
of our popular schools.
Ist. The healthfulness of the location.
2d. Its freeness from all the vices which tend to
allure the mind from deep and earnest application to
study.
3d. Tb thoroughness and diligence to which th*
studenr 1 subjected—! eing taught that he has no
timetc waste.
4th. Vocal music is a aily exercise, free of charge
in which the whole school join in the sweet accents
—which arouses the tired intellect, and restores elas
ticity to the drooping innid
sth. The efforts made to develope the mind by the
use of practical Instruction at the expense of the
impractical.
6th, The deep interest manifested by the Teachers
Trustees, and Citizens, gives it that social and lively
aspect,—so harmonious to the youthful mind—ren
dering the school-house a pleasant resort to the stu
dent instead of a house of dread and hatred.
7th. The systematic manner in which the schooli
conducted. .“Heaven's first law” is adopted and
practiced. A 8. EDGERL V . Principal.
