Abl- PROSPECTUS OF THR BTjprALonian-scnooL. JONATHAN DODGE, Phincipal. fill first term of this School wilt comtnence on Monday Slat January, 1828. In announcing to the public the establishment of this Institution, wo may reasonably expect, from tbnt large anil respectable portion of the community, who take a deep and lively interest in the great and noble caosn of Education, aome inqniriea respecting the Mode of Instruction which we purpose to adopt the anticipated extent of Krudilion here acquired, and a general outline of the Course thus proposed. These, with such other particulars aa may he deem-ed important to be known by those, whose patronage we solicit, we shall endeavor to state as explicitly ns the Concise form of a prospective advertisement will admit.

That the, science of Education, within the last hnlf century, has received astonish ingly great Improvements, every one conversant with the subject will readily allow: and umongthe most iniportuntol thesei Improvements, none have shone, so cn. picuous have tended so ctTecliiaiiy to disseminate knowledeu generally to call -out the Intent energy of the youthful mind, and to j.rodiice that ardent ambition and laudable emulation so particularly desirable among all classes of scholars, as 'the method of Monitorial or Mirtual instruction. This modo of Inst ruction we venture to assert, is the only one which is philosophically adapted to the budding talents of tne youthful genius, mid while we are sanguine in the avowal of our belief, we are fully convinced. Ihnt by this mode, Instruction can be more thoroughly and effectively conveyed, end education rounding country, tha moderate charge for tuition, the known reputation of the Piinci-pnl, end the confidence in his Selection of Professors and Assistant Teachers, we anticipate no amall share of that liberal patronage which an enlightened public, ia wont .10 bestow.
