ed that day and the two following, dur
ing me usual school hours and that
A Rhetorical Jiivhibhion,
fs to take place on Thursday the 2Glh.
to begin at 9 o'clock, A. M.
Un Monday the lower, and on Tues
day the higher branches of English edu
cation are to undergo examination
and, on Wednesday, malhematicks, phi
losophy, and the languages. Previous
to the Exhibition, or on Thursday morn
ing, will be read the respective merits
or demerits of the scholars, as evinced
from the Examination; also, a renort of
conduct and progress during the whole
of the preceding session, or the result of
weekly notices on the School Register,
of each individuals standing. Honors
and Premiums, then, to he conferred on
scholars who have especially distin
guished themselves.
To the above Exercises the Trustees'
and Principal solicit the attendance of
the Parents and Guardians of the youth
committed to their care, and of other
gentlemen and ladies friendly to the pro
motion ot literature.
Our Institution fi.st went into opera
lion in January last with about twenty
scholars, and has since increased its
number to upwards of forty. Previous
experience on the plan ot Mutual In
struction, or that of the Monitorial and
Lancasleiiari combined as circumstances
required, connected with the facilities
afforded by having a uniformity of the
most approved school books, have ena
bled the Principal, the Rev. Sidney
IVeUcr.A.M. to conduct the School
himself, with no assistance except that
of his scholars. Should any, not ac
quainted with the above plan, doubt the
facility which it affords an individual for
teaching a large number advantageously,
let them not hastily decide against (what
is thought by many whose opinions are
entitled to deference) an improvement
in education; but as one means of get
ting light on the subject, lef them attend
the coming Examination and judge for
themselves from the effect of the plan.
The next term (to continue about four
months) is to open after a recess of a
few days, or on Monday, the 5th of Au
gust. RICE B. PIERCE,

N. B. As there is a prospect of a
further accession to the School next ses
sion, therefore, in order to lighten the
task of the Principal, a suitable compen
sation would be made to some young
man, coming well recommended as to
morals, who might be qualified as
JIN ASSISTANT,
And who might wish to improve him
self in sludy, and as a teacher on the
above named plan of Mutual Instruc
tion. THE TRUSTEES.
