that will compare fAyo ably with the
best of it's kind any where. 1t is
pleasant to note with what unsnimity
the citizens OF Clinton speak OF their
school. They are evidently prouder
OF it than Of any other pubic institu-
ton in their city, And well they
may be. 1t was built at q cost OF

this is an establishment of which even

branches of trade at Clinton, and upon
these they largely rely as sources OF
profit. Manv of the merchants in the

Grocery houses on Front street were
also visited, and satisfactory assurances
received that a. profitable trade with
