for the very liberal encouragement
he has heretofore received, and respectfully
informs them that he has 'taken that large and
mmmndious brick building, the property of
rj A X mf
John Devereux, Esq. next door to the building
formerly occupied by the Bank of Newbern, on
South-Front Street ; where he is prepared to
accommodate Boarders bv the month or day
His table shall at all times be furnished with the
best the Market affords, and he pledges himself
that every exertion shall be used to merit the
approbation of those who may think proper to
patronize him. In the event of a Steamboat
Line being established between this place and
! Norfolk, which is contemplated, this building,
I from its size and situation, will be found to be
the most eligible for a Hotel, of any in town.
There is an excellent wharf convenient to the
premises, and the rooms are large, comfortable,
and well finished. Travellers are assured that
their horses will be well fed and carefully at
tended to.

timate of the qualifications of the Instructors '
From what they have witnessed, during' the

in saying, that the Newbern Academy farnisheJs
every facility for a thorough acquaintance with
the Latin and Greek languages , and such a'
knowledge of the English, as prejparcs the r
learner for the duties of the more laborious de
partments of life. The Trustees were hihlv
gratified in observing, that the young gentle J

but that they had made themselves thoroughly
acquainted, with all the ground over which they ,
had gone. The classes under the direction of
Mr. Jones, read Latin ana Greek with facility
and judgment; they parsed and scanned with
correctness and promptness. The classes in.
der the direction ofMr. Wj&sworth, displayed
uncommon readiness in their replies to all the
questions proposed : their knowledge ofhgurcs

lish Department, has been well sustained by

tive students in their different studies.
