AAOii' wv. III oOOiA IoSi
of Portland, as suitable person to receive the
suffrages of the electors OF this district.
A Committee having been appointed for the
purpose, reported the follow ng Resolutions
which were unanimously adopted -
Resolved, as the sense of this committee
that although we have been rashly plunged in
to war with one of the most powerful nations
in the world, by the corrupt and wicked coun-
sells OF men no longer deserving the public con-
fidence; and although the protection of this
state has been almost totally neglected by ouI
national rulers, who, tor that purpose are in
vested with the command of our wealth and
strength, yet the approach OF hostile force to
our own dwellings demands of the people Of
this state, OF all political parties, firm. reso-
lutte and united defence Of our natal soil a.
galnst every aggression.
Resolved, that in thus uniting, as we most
cheerluily do, with our political opponents, in
the work OF energetic defence, we cannot in
any respect unite with them in appreciation OF
the conduct OF the national administration in
the time or causes of declaring war, or in the
manner in which they have managed it.
ReSotUed, uidt we fepose entire commence,
in the wisdom, integrity and iirmness OF the
present Chief Magistrate Of this State, and dc
cordially approve the measures he has recon-
mended as well as those which the Legislature
are now passing for the defence of Massachu-
sets and the conservation Of her dearest rights.
Resolved, that at the ensuing election of a
member of Congress for this district, we will
support the Hon. GEO. BRADBURY, Esq.
OF Portland, and will use all honorable means
to secure his election. -.

TINE Trustees Of the institution
j nave the satisfaction of informing
the public that on Monday the 10th
inst. a department will be in operation,
under the immediate management OF
Josefah Spencer of Yale College, for in
struction in the following branches,
RAding, writing, arithmetic, geo.
graphy ard History with the use ofthe
Globes, at the rate of $50 per annum.
Mathematics and natural Philosophy
with other branches of useful and or
namental learning, at the rate of $50
per annum. So that this department
will be calculated as we'll for the receP-
ton of such as may have finished the
usual course of Latin and Greek stu
dies, as of those who are only intended
TO be furnished with a; complete and
polished English education. 81
The advantages which this seminary
combines, under it's present regulation
they believe viii! hardly be found to be
equslled by any other within their
knowIcdge.-First, School upon the
plan of Joseph Lancaster, in which
children are instructed from the alpha
bet, and advanced 10 degree OF pro-
ficlency in reading, wiring, arlthme.

with rapiility; which to those unac
quain,ed with this mode of education
might appear incredible The depart
ment for latin and greek, is still! under
the immediate direction OF Abial Hol.
brook an experienced teacher From
either of these, scholars will pass to
the first mentioned departments, as
they may be intended for classical edu-
cation or otherwise.
The Trustees BY ENGRAVING this ad.
ditional department. on the original csta-
bhshmcnt, have endeavored TO meet
the wishes OF many, ni,o while they
have been solicitous that their children
would be instructed in all the useful
and ornamental branches of education
taught at the several universities, have
be n deferred, either from inability in
relation to the eXpence, or from unwil.
Iingness to hazard the exchange of
moral for intellectual treasures. They
therefore cherish hope that their en-
desvors to obviate these difficulties,
may be found worthy of engaging the
aid and encouragement of the public
generally, and especially of the inha-
bitaHts of this place
The price Of tuition in the different
departments of this seminary is as fol.
ows:
Ia the Lancaster School, $40 per an.
In the upper English
School while pursuing
