ALBANY COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE
This institution will open, under the
charge of Rev. Edward r. Geary and
Rev. Samuel G.. Irvine, on Monday, Oc-
tober 18th, 1869. Under the guidance
and teachings of these two able gentle
men and finished scholars, with a corps
of competent teachers, the ensuing col
legiate year should be the most prosper
Gus and profitable the Institute has en-
joyed since its establishment. The in
ducements offered by this college, in the
possession of teachers of such high ora
reputation and literary ability, together
with the low rate of tuition, the cheap
ness of living, board being but 81 per
week, should induce large attendance
Of the young ladies and gentlemen of
Linn and adjoining counties during
1S69-70. Read the advertisement in
another column.
