PITTSBOROUGH ACADEMY UNDER JACOB GILLET.
PITTSBOROUGH ACADEMY, (Chatham County.)
The exercises of this institution are now in operation, under the superintendence of Mr. Jacob Gillet, from New York. The Trustees feel themselves justified in saying from the high authority under which Mr. Gillet comes recommended to them, as well as his long experience as a teacher, that the most flattering results may be expected from his exertions in that line; this together with the cheapness of board, and tuition ; the known and acknowledged healthiness of the situation, and the general morality which prevails in the place, must be an inducement to its preference. They at the same time pledge themselves for a joint exertion in the care and advancement of the pupils sent to their charge. The prices of tuition will be six dollars per session for Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic; eight dollars for all the other branches of the English, usually taught in Academies, and ten dollars for languages combined with the English. Board can be had in respectable families, from sixty to seventy-five dollars per year, in the place; and cheaper a short distance out.
