The
fall term of this flourishing High School, as will be seen by the advertisement
in this paper commences on the 15th inst. Mr. R. Watson Seaman, its accomplished and
successful Principal, has given his school a character for thorough and careful
instruction that almost renders it unnecessary to say any thing in its
favor. He is a well qualified and popular
teacher - bringing to the discharge of his various and important duties talents
and experience in the highest degree useful and valuable. We hope rooms crowded with students, will be
the proof that his efforts to establish and maintain here a first class
Seminary, are properly appreciated and encouraged by our citizens. His is such a school as is needed here, and
the range of studies pursued is sufficiently extensive and liberal to meet the
wishes of all classes of pupils.
