means, to erect suitable building at that place,
and establish an Academy on liberal plan, to
be under the direction and management oil the
Professo Of the Seminary, where those young
men who are designed for the Seminary will
be taught classical literature, and such other
branches as will fit them for entering 1t; and
where boys intended for college may be prcpar,,

free from the concentrating influence OF the
juvenile society Of most towns.
An Academy situated so convenient 10 THIS
city, and the towns Of the District, guided by
such men as the Professors Of that institution,
cannot, one would think, fail to attract ample pa
tronage, or to be emnently useful. r.
