BOARD AND EDUCATION, AT MUSSELBURGII
SIX MILES FROM EDINBURGH.
Musselburch, Aug. 4.
THE GRAMMAR SCHOOL of MUS-
SELBURGII was this day examined, by a Com-
mittee of the Presbytery of Dalkeith, in presence of the
Magistrates and a numerous and respectable company of
visitors and friends of the young gentlemen under Mr.
Robertson's charge. The course of study at this school is
very extensive, including all the branches of a Classical
and Commercial Education ; and the manner in which it
is conducted by Mr. Robinson, the Rector, and his Assist-
ants, deserves the highest praise.
After a strict examination, the younger part of the
pupils were found to be well grounded in the principles,
and the more advanced part, to have acquired an accurate
and extensive knowledge of the English, Latin, Greek, and
French Languages ; Roman Antiquities, History, Geogra-
phy, Arithmetic, and Mathematics. They also exhibited
many excellent spe.imens of their attainments in Writing,
Book-keeping, Drawing, and English Composition.
On a previous day, they were carefully examined with
respect to their knowledge of the principles of religion ;
and the Committee were highly delighted with the judici-
ous manner in which Mr. Robertson communicates religious
instruction and forms the minds of his pupils to the love of
it. On many former occasions, the Committee have ex-
pressed the high opinion which they entertain of Mr.
Robertson's talents and character as a teacher; and they
have found their opinion amply confirmed by the Ex-
amination of his school this day. They can now, there-
fore, with renewed confidence, recommend it to the public,
as an excellent Seminary, where all the branches of a
Classical and Commercial Education are taught in the
most approved manner, and where the utmost attention
is paid to the religious and moral instruction of the young.
JOHN PATON, Minister of Lasswade, Moderator.
LESLIE MOODIE, D.D. Minister of Inveresk.
JOHN THOMSON, Minister of Newbattle.
JOHN RAMSAY, Minister of Williston.
JOHN ADAMSON, Minister of Newton.

men, previously educated at this Seminary, received public
prizes in the Rector's Class, viz.—Messrs. James A. Frazer,
Thomas Carte, Alexander Robertson, and Ebenezer Ro-
bertson.
The School will re-assemble on TUESDAY, the 13th day
