PITTSBOROUGH ACADEMY UNDER NATHANIEL HARRIS.
THE ACADEMY IN PITTSBOROUGH
Is still in operation, under the superintendence of the Rev. Nathaniel H. Harris. The 2d Session will commence on the 8th of July next. There is also an excellent Female School in the same village under the charge of Miss Mary McKenzie. Board can be obtained from $6 to 8 per mouth. It is unnecessary to make any mention of the healthiness of the place, as it is well known to be as much so, as any situation in the State.                                                           Joseph Small, Sec'y.
