CUBTIS WOULD renew tbcir respectful acknowledgments of the kind support of the public during the lust Eleven years. Upwards of 600 young Ladies, filling honorable stations in every part of the State and neighborhood, are the best advertisement, to which they call the attention of Parents and Guardians. By them and their friends the location and climate of the School are well known; its unequalled Retirement and accommodations, and its health so remarkable that no cases of sickness have ever occurred there. They purchased and have added to this property, chiefly, with a view to its Retirement; congenial alike, as they find, to the best habits of attention to scholastic duties, and to the sensitive modesty of the female character, as they desire to form it. In every department the best Assistants are sought for. The Principals have suffered no inconvenience of occasional changes or increased expenditure to obstruct them in the pursuit of this object?aspiring, as they can repeat they do, to leaving the School rich in influence, literary and moral, rather than to enrich themselves, or to accomplish any personal or sectarian objeot. One of the Principals will be found at the Mills House, Charleston, on Saturday, 14th February, leaving for Columbia on Monday 16th, and at the Assembly House, Columbia, on Monday, 16th, to leave for Yorkvillc, on Tuesday, 17th.
