CLASSICAL ACADEMY.

THIS School has been in operation during the past
wear and the success which has attended it, indu-
ces the Trustees confidently to believe that it may
BIZ made one of the leading educational institutions
of the kind in the State. The health and good
morals of the Town render it one of the most de-
sirabc locations fur scat of learning in the Up
Country There is not n licensed bar in the place.
The best advantages are offered here for Military
training which is now considered very important
addition to the education of young man. The
South may i'll future require that most of her sons
receive military cducations, especially when it may
be done without dctracting from other studies
The uniform is frocl coat of grey material OF
Southern manufacture, and neat, but plain and
cheap, so to be in the reach of almost any one.
Pants of the same material. There is large and
elegant parade ground attached to the building
which is in a quiet part Of the Town.
Students will be thoroughly prepared for the
Citadel Academy, for any of the Colleges of the
State. or for the active business pursuits of life.
ne7~ Good board may be had at ten dollars per
month.
The scholastic year will consist of one term of
ten months to begin on the l4th of january, 1861,
and short vacation will be given about July or
August. as may be thought best. The rates of tut

Tho National Lntc1ligenccr reminds those
who think that it is necessary for Lincoln
to be inaugurated in Washington, that
Mr.. King took the oath of Office as Vice
President of the United States IN CNba,
from the hands of the deputy consul Of
the United States. The Inauguration in
Washington and the administration OF
the oath by the Chief Justice Of the
United States is only custom, to make
the matter more imposing. A justice OF
the peace is perfectly competent to admin
lister the oath.
