Geography Class, * * *; English Grammar, * * *; First Arithmetic Class, * * * ; Second Arithmetic Class, * * *; NeedleWork, * * *.
Of the deportment and attention of all the Teachers in the Academy, the Trustees are happy to pronounce their entire approbation. The talents of the Rev. Wm. L. Turner, who has lately been employed as principal Teacher, the salubrity of the place and the cheapness of board, afford flattering pressages of the increasing prosperity of the Institution.
