MULBERRY-STREET SCHOOL,
ABERCROMBIE-SQUARE.
Conducted by Mr. JAMES HICKIE (Author of a Key to
Hutton's Course of Mathematics) and Mr. HENRY JOHNS,
both well known in Liverpool as successful Teachers.
This School has, since its opening, continued to increase in
numbers, as well as gain in character.
The system adopted at the outset. and since steadily adhered
to, was to impart a sound Scientific and Commercial Educa-
tion, not by seeking to accomplish great things, but by con-
scientiously endeavouring to do all that is really practicable,
well. That this object has been attained may behest inferred
from the subjoined notes, emanating from parents of Pupils
at present in the School : to these might be added (if conve-
nient in an advertisement) a long list of references to parents
wno have expressed their satisfaction at the progress which
their sons have made, and are making, in this establishment.

Dear Sirs,—My son has been under your instruction for
nearly two years, and I feel it only due to you to say how
highly I appreciate the great improvement ho has made in all
his studies. When I recal to mind his former sad backward-
ness, and compare it with his present condition, I am satisfied
that a system which has resulted in such a marked change
must be a good one: therefore accept my sincere thanks for
all your kindness and attention to my son.—And believe me,
dear Sirs, yours most truly,
