THE ATHENAEUM.
THE Subscriber finding that his health will not warrant a regular attendance to the active branch of his profession, has determined to suspend his Practise so far as it extends to duties in Courts, for a year or two, until his health shall be re-established; during which time he proposes to open a class for the instruction of Youth of both Sexes in all the Branches of an English Education, both useful and ornamental.
He is not desirous to have any Latin or Greek Pupils, as such a course might interfere somewhat with the scope of his establishment. However, if it be insisted on, it will not be refused. Approved Assistants will be procured if necessary. The following Branches will be taught:
Spelling, Heading, Writing and Arithmetic, at $3 pr. qr.
Grammar, Geography & Globes, at $4 pr. qr.
Rhetoric, Logic, Natural Philosophy, Ethics, Astronomy, Composition, Elocution and the French Language, at $5pr. qr.
Much attention will be paid to correct and graceful Beading and Speaking.
As corporal punishments are too well calculated to debase the mind, they will never be resorted to.
He will commence on or about the first of April next. The Booms have not yet been fixed on, but due notice will be given to such as may favor him with their patronage.
Applications to the Star Office, or at Mr. Gale's Book Store, will meet with attention.
