TENHIS School was opened on the Sth OF last
Il September, and from the liberal patronage
it has already received, (having now in attend
ance sixty Schoars) the Teachers arc abundant,
" encouraged, both rs to its permaneney and
success.-Ihey respectfully present their Circu-
lar to the citizens of this District and to the pub
lie generally, upon whose libcrality they rely tor
continued support The school is strictly South
ern-all the teachers being natives OF the State
hence there is no room for apprehension that
the scholars will mbbe sentiments, either d.
rectlv or indirectly, at variance with our peculiar
institutions.
Course of Study.
The course of instruction will be as thorough
as the opportunities of the scholars will admit.
If the attendance is sufficiently long, all the STU
dies usually pursued in the first Female Semi
narirs will be attended to. AS no education can
be regarded as thorough which does not contem-
plate the eternal as well as the present well-belng
of the scholars-the Bible is introduced as q
textbook into the school, and whilst oil scctaran
influence is scrupulously avoided, it VIII be the
constant aim of the teachers to mpart such moran
instruction as will incline the scholar to exercise
a due regard for the things of religion" The
daily exercises of the school are opened with
PRAYER and the reading Of the Scriptures.

wear, commencing on the 18th Of July and end
