JONES AND ANDREWS RETURN TO PHILADELPHIA, 1825.
We learn that in consequence of the determination of Messrs. Andrews and Jones to leave the North-Carolina Female Academy, Mr. Jos. B. Warne, who has for seven years past been a tutor in that institution, intends to commence a school upon the plan of that celebrated establishment, which will go into operation at the beginning of next year.
In this undertaking, he is to be assisted by his son-in-law Mr. Baker, and three other competent teachers, members of their family, including Miss Emma Baker who is now assistant Music Teacher in the Academy at Oxford. Mr. Warne and Miss Baker are the only two of the teachers, concerned in the present establishment who do not leave the Southern States, at the end of the year. They are now seeking an eligible situation in which to locate themselves, and when that is decided on, the plan, terms, &c, will be made known.
