which is corrected in our to-day's

of the 1st.
We would take this occasion to
again call attention to the superior
facilities offered in Mrs. Davidson

of our town. The students make
as rapid progress in the branches
taught as is at all desirable. The
system of teaching is thorough and

that the next session will open with
