THE year is divided into two Session of five months each ; the first Session, beginning oa the first of January, and the second Session, on the first of July. It is the design of the Preceptor, that this Institu tion shall not be surpassed, ia the advantages afford ed for acquiring a thorough. English, Classical aDd Mathematics I education. . A majority of the Students stndy the Classics, with the intention of entering forne University. Rut those, whose means are limited, can acquire a full Collegiate course, both in the Classics and Math ematics. With the desigu of making the course of Studies as extensive as possible, a scientific Book keeper has teen engaged. And although Classical Students en ay suppose, that they will never become Accountants, yet a knowledge of this Science is ne cessary to men in all kind of business; but, mote especially to those, who expect to engage in Mercan tile pursuits, or to become practical business men.

A wing is about to be attached to the Academy, for the Juvenile Department, which will be finished by the first of January. The Teacher of thin de partment will wholly devote his attention to the in struction of Boys, whom Parents or Guardians may consider so young, that they caunot, or will not, be well tanght by men, who are giving instruction to older Students in the higher branches of learning.

O' N Tuesday, the 14ih day f December next, at the Coutt House in Louisburg, I shall offer for sale, by virtue of a decree of the Court of Equity, entered in the Petition of Ancilla B. .Wesiray, at Fall Term of said Court, the Tract of Land lying on the Road leading from Louisburg to Warrenton, one mile from the former place.the late residence of Nathan Patterson, deceased, containing 405 acres. This property is too generally known to require particular description very rarely is such a splendid Mansion House, and such substantial out buildings, offered for sale. In the whole County of Franklin, there is not an establishment fitted up with, such elegance and taste, and at the same time so permanent and durable. The dwelling House is new, and contains some eight or ten spacious rooms, and all the out houses are new framed buildings, with stone chim neys. The Yard and Garden are elegantly set with Shrubbery and Flowers, and a wise arrangement per vades tbe entire premises. The yard and avenue are enclosed with solid stone walla,' which will last for ages, j be arable land ia under good fences, some of which has been highly manured, and a con siderable part is now, very productive. I suppose there are 75 to 80 acres of forest land, conveniently situated to the farm, and there are also some 15 to 20 acres of splendid meadow. The whole Tract together, is certainly the most desirable residence of my acquaintance. To wealthy gentlemen in the Eastern part of the State, who would like to avail themselves of the advantages of our superior Male and Female Schools, drink pore water, and enjoy good bealtb. I especially invite to attend this sale There is a great deal of Land now offered for sale in the up country, but there is no such residence as this within my knowledge. A credit of one aed two years will b given, the purchaser giving Bond and security fur the faithful payment of the purchase mo ney ; bonds bearing interest from dale. I will take pleasure in showing the land te any one who may wish to go over it. TWOS. K. THOMAS, C. M.
