Qiianky Academy. rpiIE Trustees would remind the Pub lic thai their. Academy is again opened under the management of Mr. WELLER, and that a few more board ers may be accommodated in the neigh borhood, by early application. (In the new building and on the system of instruction pursued, there is no need in the school of limitation; as all, doubtless, are aware who attended the examinations of about 40 scholars during the past year.) They however wish no youth, whose guardian may not cheerfully commit him to the regulations established. These so far as written will be forward ed to any gentleman, wishing informa tion. Th ey a m 0 u n t to a strict, and firm, (though mild and reasonable) course of discipline promotive of the scientific, moral, and religious improvement of the pupil. Mr. Weller, having: the nast vear, re deemed his pledge to teach a class the Latin Grammar, and to read the first au thors in that language, without prevent ie.g the usual progress in English stu dies, will undertake the like the present year. His plan in this, as well as in oth er studies, is that now adopted by the brst teachers in our own, and other countries, viz: lhe pleasine: one of youth's understanding, as advances are made, every thing learned or committed to me mory. The irksomeness of mere parrot task-getting is hereby prevented, and a more engaging, rapid, and lasting progress is made. To carry into effect this plan, or to avail of all the present improved facilities of education, books and the like, when necessary are fur- uisiieu ui puces noi 10 exeeeu tnose oi the stores in Petersburg. All branches are taujrht, usual in the schools and academies of our country. Mr. Weller is about commencing to instruct a class in the French lansuaee. 0 on the Ilamiltonian system, or on a plan he has hilly tested elsewhere by experi ment. The sunerior advantages of this system, may be seen ably noticed in the June IN umber ibl4b) oi lhe iidinburg jacvjcw. BICE B. PIERCE, JAMES BISHOP, JOHN PUR NELL, Jan. 30, 1S2S. 24 Trusties.
