Of any community. The necessity
hitherto existing, of sending young
ladies' to neighboring towns to acquire
the ordipary accomplishments to Sc

is now superseded by one of the best
Schools in the State, located in our
own pleasant town. Parents can ed
ucate their daughters,and at the same
time have them under their own con-.
trol-which is most desirable. The
people of this county have awakened
to these advantages, and the re-
suit Of that awakening is good Fe-'I
