II is the aim of the Principal and Trustees
to build up and permanently establish an nstI-
tuition Of the highest order, in which all the |
advantages of thorough education to be had
any where else can be offered; thus saving to
our people the expense and sacrifice OF feeling
incurred in sending their children abroad. Sit
uated as our A cademy is, in the midst of /
wealthy and intelligent population, at a healthy
point, connected with all the principal places
of the State by stage and vail facilities, and
conducted By competent teachers, we see no
good reason why our most sanguine hopes
Should not be realized. We call on our fellow
citizens of this and The neighborlng counties to
give our a cndemy fair trial, and if found
deserving, to sustain an institution here at
home. where they can watch over the health,
comfort and progress of their daug hters during
their course Of MISUNDERSTANDING ourselves
that no efforts shall be spared to render it wor-
