The best wishes of the people of' Winnsboro go withI Mr'. Pr'essly and his charmning wife in their noble work. May they' have a speedy voyage, a llnsanit and prVofital ble sojourn in their new field, and a safe return home on the complletion of their labors. NEw AI)vEHTISEM EN'Ts.-i%essrs.

The Old Session Closed and a New One Openedl--The Prospects of the Insti tution. This school has completed a suc cesful soession of eight months, and onl Monday entered upon a'n'ecw scholastic year. It op)ened on the 9th day of last February. During the fir'st month one hundred and forty-seven pupils were.enrolled, anid siunce then the aver ageo erolmenit has boon one hundred and forty-nine, and the average attend anlce 0on0 huindr'ed and thirty-six. Durlig the past three months the numbers have steadily increased, p)rin cipally by the accessions of pup)ils from other parts of the county who board X in towni. At the close of the session thereo was a bonla fldb enrolment of 0one hundred and sixty-three, and an aver 'age attendance for November of one huindred and fifty-one.

III other words, this instruc tion has cost the people of Wiansboro, directly and indirectly, only seven hundred and forty dollars, or about five dollars per scholar. Uider the old system the tuition fees of (his inumber of pupils would have beenl at least twenty-seven hundred and fifty dol lars--a saving to the parenis of two thousand (ollar in eight nuonths. While all pupil.s have been taught 1much1 more cheaply, a iuimber have been able to attend regularly the free school, who could not otherwise have been educated. An additional advantage of having a good school in town is that it attracts pupils from other places, and every one so brought gives additional impe tus to trade, which in the aggregate aIIonIlts yIarly to a considerable sum. In order to maintain the school properly. it was agreed at a ineeting of the Mount Zion Society aId the citizens to petition for the erection o f a new school district two miles each way from the couIt-iouse'. with the privilege of levying a moderate local tax. Colonel Rionl also very generously offered the free use of his admirably I fitted Kindergarten school for certain classes. But, as this was somewhat inconveniew.ly situated in regard to the College, it was thought better topluItupj)an addit ional class-room at the College, so as have all tihe pupils together. If nothing prevent this addition will soon be made. The school will rul four weeks and then a Christmas vacation of three weeks will be given.
