The Episcopal School of North Carolina, was opened on Monday last, in the spacious stone building just erected for the purpose, under the most flattering auspices. It is situated in a delightful grove, about half a mile west of the capitol, on decidedly one of the most desirable and commanding sites anywhere to be found in the environs of the city; and the advantages it possesses, the healthfulness of its locality, and the high reputation of the gentlemen entrusted with its management, will no doubt ensure for it a very extensive patronage.
