Since life's first lawn his hand has led
Daily rich treasures he doth send,
IT'S BY his bounty thou art fed.
Lean on his arm invoke his aid,
Ensbrine his presence in thy heart
He'll guide thee safe thro' deaths dark shade
And shield from each enyenomed dart.
Daughter! choose now this needed friend,
No longer live without his love
Bid him protect, preserve, defend,
Do whatsoever he may approve.
Thrice bless'd bis consultations are,
Than gold or gems more precious fair
Daughter seek now this best, dear friend,
To him thy hearts pure offerings send.

the aim of every teacher to magnify bis

Blake's Fire and Waterproof Paint.

GONE idea may be formed of the usefulness
u of this truly wonderful Paint, and the ex-
tent to which it is used, from the fact, that
within a few months past, | have sold upwards
of 5000 pounds, and have this day ordered
$4,000 pounds more. 1t has given entire sat
i%sfactio1, and all who have houses to paint,
will consult their interest by using it. 1t is
the cheapest and most durable paint ever used.
| have Collins Patent Refined Paint Oil,
which is used for mixing with the paint at less
than half the price of Linseed oil, and just as
good. The paint and oil, | am prepared TO sell
at New York and Philadelphia prices, after ad-
ding freight.
All orders from town and country thankfully
eceived and promptly executed by

CHATHAM, JUNE 25, 1852.
Mr.. EDITOR Nothing is more inter
esting to me than a public examination
OF a we'll regulated Seminary of learning.
/ have had the pleasure of attending ex-
aminations Of many Schools and Acad-
emies, but have never been better pleased
or more delighted than I was with the
exercises of the 18th and 18th inst. at
High Hill Academy. This interesting
and fourishing school is conducted by
Or. Nj. Gloss, who is a most active, en-
ergetic and Industrious teacher. His
education and many excellent qualities
not only secure to him the confidence
and respect Of all who know him, but
their warmest admiration and devoted
attachment.
This Academy is located in the most
healthy part of Chatham County, six
miles southwest of Chapel Hill, in the
midst of the very best society, which
renders it a fitting place for an Academy
of the highest order. And | would here
say 10 parents who have sons to educate
that, in my judgement, they cannot do
better than 10 send them to this school,
for in the Principal, they will find every
thing combined which constitutes the
perfect gentleman and scholar.
The examination commenced on Thurs
day, and during tie day classes were
examined in Geography, English Gram
mar, Natural Philosophy, Latin ant
Greek. In these various studies the pu
pills acquitted themselves in a name
highly creditable to themselves AM
teacher. The accurate and prompt an
swers of the young gentlemen evince'
aquickness Of perception but rarely
ever equalled. The remarks made a
the close of the day, by DR.. Mitchell
and Prof. Philips, of Chapel Hill, who
together with Prof. Fetter, were preser
by invitation of the Principal and Tru.
tees ofthe School, that the students ha
been we'll and thoroughly instructed
gives 10 this school a we'll earned nam
and reputation which will vie with an
similar institution in the State.
Friday was devoted to eXaminin
classes in Arithmetic, Rhetoric, and til
Junior class IN Latin and declamatio
by the young gentlemen. The exam
nation was conducted in such a mannt
that each pupil gave evidence that r
preparation had been made on any pa
ticular portion of the text, but that h
preparation was on the whole.
In the evening, at I o'clock, ever
thing-jucundaa aspectu ct gustu Suaa
was provided in itch abundance for
party which was given by the school
the Young ladies' and gentlemen in Il
n~eighborhood. Although we had loI
since renounced the state Of sing
bIessrdness,' yet we were honored Wi
an invlta,ion to be present, which '
cordially accepted, and passed with I
young a few hours of social intercouI
mingled with innocent mirth and glee.
And We would here render TO the you
men Of the School, our profound
acknowledgements for this mark of th
respect.
The next session commences on NJ,
day the 18th Of July.
