THE next session will commence on the first
Il Monday in January, 1856, which will be the
seventh day of the month. The Trustees are tru-
~ grateful for the liberal patronage which has
been bestowed upon the school the present
session, and would most respectfully solicit q
continuation of the same feeling confident that
no institution of the kind, offers greater facilities
for the samo expense.
The department, as we'll as the superintendence
Of the whole, will be under John w. Stuart, Esq,
who has been engaged several years in teaching
with great success a part of the time connected
with Randolph Macon College as Principal of the
Preparatory department, which, we are informed
by the Faculty, he conducted with eminent abili-
ty, and left with the regrets of all concerned.
The female school will be under the direction of
Miss Flora Graham, who is a North Carolinian by
birth and education, and consequently, identified
with US in interest and fe cling. She is a FIRST
HONOR graduate of one of the best female colleges
in the State, the President of which, in speaking
of her says, She is one of the best scholars l
ever knew, and 1 would esteem any man fortunate
who could secure her services as a teacher too
high a character 1 could not give her." Instruc-
ton from such teachers, as well as the cheapness
Of board and tuition, are advantages which should
not be overlooked by persons who have children
to educate. Young men will be prepared for the
advanced classes in college, or for the business
walks of life young ladies will have a fine oppor-
tunity to acquire 3 superior education, both social
and ornamental.
