MANCHESTER PROPRIETARY SCHOOL.
Proprietaiy k intended to consist of Pies iiandred
Shares of Filly Pounds each, bearing interest at not more
than four pounds per cent. per annum, and every Proprietor is
to have the privilege of nominating to the School one pupil in
respect of each share he may hold ; such shares not to exceed
four in number.

The advantages of such a School as the one now in contem-
plation may be briefly summed up as follows :—Admission to it
can only be obtained through the recommendation of a Pro-
prietor; this insures respectability, at least, in point of station
and moral conduct on the part of the pupil, and is thus a pled
to the Proprietors, that none will be admitted as associates of
their children at school who are not also worthy of being their
associates in the world at large. In addition to this, all the
arrangement regarding the expenses of the institution will be
placed under the control of a Committee of Proprietors, whose
obvious interest, as well as duty, it will be to see that its finances
are regulated with a due regard to economy on the one hand
and the comfort of its inmate on the other. To this Committee
the School will be always open for their inspection and super-
intendence. Liberal salaries will be assigned to the several
Masters of the institution, thus securing the services of teachers
of the highest ability. The first and second masters will be
graduates- of one of our English Universities—men, therefore,
who have themselves been disciplined on the soundest system
and the most approved principles of instruction, and who have
had their own proficiency tested by examination before the
most competent judges. 'the head master will be a Clegyinan
of the Church of England; a gurantee that the pupils will be
trained in such principles of faith and morals as are oft
cherished by her members, and the least obnoxious to tho . who
differ from her; and the pnpils will be at all hours der the
care and superintendence either of their masters .r of their
parents and guardians, by which they will be • vented from
contracting those evil habits during their ho of relaxation,
which are but ill compensated by the most sfactory progress
in mere learning and science. Such a.. tional branches of
instruction will be from time to time intro used into the institu-
tion as the progress of knowledge or the necessities of the
pupils may seem to require: so that there will be no occasion
for the scholar to change his school between his first admission
and his entrance upon the duties of active life. Such are a few I
of the advantages which it is sought to secure to the rising
generation, by the establishment of a Proprietary School.
The design may be said to he altogether new, for those as yet
established upon a somewhatsimilar plan are merely day schools,
whereas it is contemplated in this institution to combine together
the advantages of domestic and scholastic discipline. This de-
sign, so far as it has been promulgated to the Public, has hitherto
met with the most decided approbation and success ; and there
can be no doubt, that as soon as the principles on which it is
founded are understood, parents in general will hasten to take
advantage of the benefits which the system holds forth to them
—a systemuuiting economy with comfort, and sonnd instruction
in literature and science, with the accomplishments and'graces
of arts and manners.
An eligible situation for the School has been secured at Dids-
bury, about five miles froM Manchester, in an healthy and de-
lightful situation.
As it appears desirable that the advantages of the School
should be extended as widely as possible, the co-operation of
individuals favorable to its objects in the adjoining districts
and neighbouring counties will be welcomed by the Proprietors.
Application for shares to be made to WILLIAM SEDDON, Esq.,
the Honorary Secretary, at the office of Messrs. Seddon and
Mawsou, solicitors, Manchester, and copies of the rules and
regulations may be obtained at the office of this newspaper.
