It n mv desire to place ii uo ai an equal fooling with the Female Academies of Tarborough mid Louislting. To do this I have engaged Miss Mary Jlag'daU to take charge of the school. Miss Karsdale has had the charge ol this school the last session of the preeit year, and by her un wearied attention, together with ih rapid advance of her pupils in iheir various stu dies nave given t-uiire satisfaction o her employer". I deem it unnecessary to say more about her qualifications, for she is so well known ainoii an extensive acouainl ance in Nash and Jvigecomhe. autl parli culai lyin Nash as an tuslrucii es, that I feel jusiified in expressing the ielief that those wlo commit their children to her management will have uniiiing to Tear.

Th pine of Tuition the same as at Tarborough, that is, Ten Dol lars per session for the lower cla-ses, and Twelve Dollars per session for die higher. No student will be received for a If ss term than one session, unless providential acci dents should prevent their commencing with the session or ca 1 them off before it ends, audio such cases the tuition wdl be charged only for the lime at school It is particularly request- d that the students should begin wiM) the session and be per mitted to remain during the 'csio:i, I hat the teacher may have an opportunity of doing justice to herself and her pujtiU; for it is designed that an Examination sl.a'l be held at the end of each session. Board can be had in a few families upon as cheap or cheaper terms than in Tarborough or Louisburg. It is hoped that this school will be liberally patronized, for no pains will be spared to mike it worthy of the confidence of the public. A. J. Battle.
