IA Miles East of Raleigh.
This school can be surpassed by but few in the
State. Our Principal, VIM. B. Jones, though a
young man. has surpassed the expectations of his
patrons, and bids fair, in a short time, to become
one of the best of teachers. He undoubtedly pos
sesses the faculty of ~''aptness to teach" The
thoroughncss of his pupils teitify to this fact.
Having enjoyed the tuition of DR.. Wayland, IN
those English branches of which he is the author,
and of Elocution under Proof. Russell, one of the
best elocutionists in our country, he is, we can
safely say, more thorough in those branches than
we generally find men of his age.
Mrs. D. W. Jones, Principal of the Female De-
partment, has already established the reputation
of a First Glass teacher. We have no hesitation
in saying. she is second TO none in the State
The Buildings are now complete, and ample pre-
parations are made for a large number of students.
Board six and seven dollars per month, Tuition
as heretafore.
Necessary Books and Stationary furnished at the
place by Nm. H Tomlinson.
The nextsession will 1mmence on Monday, 18th
January next.
