CCHOOI

fNHE subscribers beg leave to inform the citizens
1 of Wayne and the adjoining counties, that
they have opened an English, Classical, Mercan-
tile and Mathematical School, in the town of
GoIdsborough.
The Senior instructor, Mr. Johy RontSsox, Is,
n PRACTICAL and experienced Teacher, having for
the last len years stood at the head of his profess
sion III Europe, as the many fattering testimonials
in. his possession will show. William Robinson
faters himself that he is already favorably known
in this region, teacher who has always been
faithful IN the discharge of Duty and successful in
imparing instruction and would. therefore throw
himself upon his old patrons OF Wayne, Lenoir,
and EdgcCOmbe-in which counties he has spent
the last nine years-for share Of that patronage
which they always so cheerfuIly bestowed upon
him.
Mr.. John Robinson will superintend the Eng.
llsh, Mercantile, and Mathematical department,
and give instruction in the Italian and French
languagcS--also in ms rumental music if requir-
ed. Vocal music will constitute part OF The daily
exercises of the pupils
Mr.. William Robinson will superintend the
Classical department.
They have built and fitted up new School
Rom, and hope that their effort to establish a
School of high literary merit in this rising and
fOurishins town, will not be in vain. They COM
mence it on individual enterprise, and under tho
most discouraging circumstances, and rely upon
the merits of the Institution alone for support.
The School is now in operation, and those who
wish to avail themselves of its advantages are re-
quesed 10 make no delay in entering, that the
classes may be properly and advantageousIy or.
ganized.

the prosecutions of former bigoted and blind
ages; we are never shocked by finding them
subject to human infrmity they are spotless

They preach by precept and example.

For the Sentinel:
Have YOu been at Church to-day

Yes; in the Universal Temple. A TEN pie
built by the most skillfu Architect; in which
there is nothing incongruous with the purpose
to which it is dedicated; but whose every object
is to the greatest degree calculated to elevate
and refine the soul. The spacious Dome is Of
the most faultless symmetry, and On scale OF
astonishing grandeur. The eye can but just
scan its wide extens and its magnific arch
springs heavenward with lightness and grace
unequaled by any structure of its kind. 1t is
lighted by single chandelier, whose direct ray
is too powerful for the naked eye, but whose
pure uncolored light equals the sun. and shows
the decorations of the Temple In all their beau
ty and harmony of color. The whole interior
of the spacioiis edi6ce, is in perfect keeping
with the intention of its Builder, and the pur-
pose of it's ereetionGthe w6rship Of the " Lord
of Hosts" Everything within manifests his
projections. and its walls are so transparent
that his works in the heavens are not shut out
from the view of the worshipper.
And the worship there To the devout heart
how perfect Cleanse the heart of its oscn eril
and there is nought in that glorious Temple
to hurt or offend. Preachers are thereto
each is assigned his portion of instruction =
And they all preach-preach all at once and un-
ceasingly; yet without confusion, without wea-
riness, and without error. There is one before
me; He runs constantly to teach the rape
fight OF time, and he points to the boundless
ocan, to remind men of Eternity Yet no aus.
terity clothes his brow ver-smiling and ben

ing to the celestial vault, to lead the thoughts
on high, and direct the spirit from Earth to
Heaven. Above; too, are angels with extend
ed wings floating in ethef Speeding on their
way to preach by the gentle influence of good

A VERY SENSIBLE CLERGYMAN.

A few days previous to the election in Chi
cago which resulted in the complete overthrow
of locofocoism in that enterprising city,a Meth
odist minister, holding forth in school-house
in the suburbs, concluded the services of the
day with the following very appropriate re-
marks: detroit .4dD.
"And now o Lord, we ask of thee to protect
our favored land, and keep it in the way of de-
mocracy-the good cid democracy that protects
the civil and religious liberties of the people.

so long cursed the benighted State Of Illinois.

"THERE was woman in the neighborhood,
the widow of man who had been active in be-
half of the patriots, and had been, consequent
ly, sacrificed to glut the vengence of the Kings
party. His two SONS had joined the army OF
Putnam, and were then in service in the High
lands while the mother, and the only 'daugh-
tar, an Amazon of formidable dimensions, Oc-
cupied together the family cottage. Search
after those who were conjectured to have been
left behind at the late incursion, had stibsided,
when suspicion was directed to the unfortunate
widow. Ever since the attack upon MY honse;
it was discovered that this woman was in the
habit of making a more liberal provision OF food
than could reasonably be consumed BY herself
and daughter; and il was conjectured that they
harbored some unknown, and, therefore, sus-
pected individuals. Her house was narrowly
watched, but none but her and her daughter,
seemed to enter or depart from it. Another
scrutiny was made, but the mother was found
busy at her wheel, and the daughter, with
large bonnet on her head, was discovered wash
ing some clothes in neighboring brook. The
search was about to be abandoned, when the
damsel, who sedulously kept her back. to the
party, STOPPING little too low, disclosed pair
of sturdy supporters, cased in spatterdashes.-
The imposter was instantly seized, and, instead
OF the woman's daughter, man was discovered
disguised in her clothes. He was hurried to
the guard-house, put in irons drum head
eourt-martial was called the next day, and ne
was arralgned as spy. Found disguised with
