A Timely and Genial Note from Prof
Seymour.

MEssEs. EDITORS: With thanks for
kindly notices, in the ADVERTISER, from
|. time to time, Since our arrival first in
Edgefeld, we now beg indulgence for a
short communication.
To one interested in Education it is
gratifying to meet gentlemen alive to the
cause, putting, forth efforts to further the
truest interest of their children 1t ls
more gratifying to meet those having no
children of their own to educate, who are
equally concerned in the education of
Others. We have met, and been drawn
essentially near, in sympathy, with repre-
sentatives of these two classes, in the vii
lage, during the past week; and on one or
two occasions 80 much zeal was manifested
that eli formality OF first meeting was
laid aside to enter at once upon the
weightier matters" of the School. This
is encouragement and, in a measure, a
guarantee of future success.
To the people of the surrounding coun-
try We would say: Our doors are open to
your children. Our tuition is reasonably
low, and our teaching the best we are
able to command, Reduced board is Of
fered to pupils of our schools. We use
the plural number, including the noble ef-
fortsof Misses Gilliland and Adams, young
ladies highly regarded as. excellent teach
ers and fine disciplinarians
Are not good schools, refined and Guilt
waited people, a healthy section, low board
and tuition, together. with. Church and
Sabbath School influence, sufficient IN
ducements to move some Of our friends
from the country to sojourn with us du-
ring ouracholastic term, or send to us their
children? !? We have made start, and
are pleased with the material entrusted /;
but there is room for more
Work on the Academy building is be
ing dispatched, and Improvements are be-
ing wrought. Iadies5ofsthe Village have

wise; for one .s:aftsiy knows how much

broken benches, crumbling walls and ma
terlal of arrangement and disorder on all
sides. This matter, however, our Trustees
and many Kind friends are considering,
and as rapidly as possible are reducing to
order. And we have great hope that our
building, inside and out, will in a few
months present a comely appearance and
be pride of the Village.

noted as one of the principal furniture
firms in the South. Occupying three
entire floors of the large and handsome

always carry very large and complete
stock of Furniture, so that the purchaser
has the greatest possible variety to
choose from. Their Correspondence ena-
bles them to Judge accurately what the
people of our section desire in the Fur
niturs line; and we are certain that no
Edgefield man or woman will go to the
Platt establishment who will not find
exactly what he or she wishes. The
Platt stock embraces not only all the old
standard articles of furniture, but also
all the novelties in their line of business.
They keep parlor and bedroom sets of
