GRHEMsBoRoUdH ACADEMY


 TSHE friends and patrons of this institution
 are hereby informed, that the Trustees having concluded an arrangement, with MT. c. D. MuRPHEY, to take charge of and con duct the school to be taught therein, it will open for the reception of pupils between the first and fifteenth of the present month. The Trustees believe that they are justified in assuring the public, that the arrangement now made will be permanent; and that the school will be conducted in manner that will command the confidence and appreciation of all who may send their children to it. MT MURPHEY will have associated with him, fe- male teachers of the best requirements and capacity, in connexion with whom he will be able to teach all the branches of female edu- cation. including the elementary, literary, and scientific, useful and ornamental branches. The prices will be the same as'them of the Tuscaloosa Female Academy, which are something lower than those heretofore charg- ed in the Greensborough Female Academy.
 The health, society, and situation of the village of Greensborough vicinity are so well known, that it is deemed needless to say any thing on the subject.
 Good board, at moderate prices, can be had in genteel families in the village and neigh borhood. By order of the board,

TUSCALOOSA FEMALE ACADEMY.

"HE Trustees of this Institution having l been informed that rumors have gone abroad that there is no Female School in ope- ration at Tuscaloosa, deem it adviseable to in form the community that such rumors are en- tirely groundless. A union having been ef- fectcd between the Tuscaloosa Female Edu- cation Society and the Sims Female Acade- my, there is now in operation at this place, a promising Institution under the name of the Tuscaloosa Female Academy. The union which has been effected was designed, and it is confidently hoped that it will have the effect, to unite the feelings and interests of the whole community, upon the highly interesting and all important subject of Female Education. This union too, places more ample fund un- der the control of the Board of Trustees, and they hope thereby to be able to make the In- stitution equal to the highest expectations of it's most sanguine friends
 The first session of the Tuscaloosa Female Academy commenced on Tuesday. the 9th inst. under the management of Miss ELLEN B. HowE, and Mrs ROBINSON, of whose qua lications it is deemed unnecessary to speak, the community having had ample proofs of their abilities in their occupation.
 Arrangements have been made for procur- ing another instructress. who is expected in the course of the present Autumn. Measures have also been adopted for the procurement of some gentleman of reputation to act as Su- perintendent, or President of the Institution.
 MT PFIsTER and Mrs PATRICK, whose qualifications are favorably known, will con- tinue to instruct in the Musical department of the School.
 Arrangements are making for the erection of an Academy edfce, upon an enlarged and improved plan. It is also contemplated to connect boarding house with the Institution.

 Orders respectfully solicited.
 have so repeatedly reminded my friends and the public, of the necessity of their lend- ing liberal support to the establishment, that were to continue the call-without an a. biology, ,--it would seem to carry tone of com plaint with it. This is far from my intention; it would be treating generous and liberal public with !great injustice and ingratitude. The support has been beyond my expecta- tions but at most it necessarily must be in- considerable in town of the age and limited population of Tuscaloosa.
 believe all will admit that Book ard Sta tionary establishment is an important acqui- sition to our town, and permanent benefit to the country-and such will permit me again to remark, that it's present success, until our public institutions arc further advanced, re- quires all the support that the liberal and well wishing can bestow.
