PITTSBOROUGH ACADEMY UNDER MR. LALOR.
PITTSBOROUGH  ACADEMY.
The exercises of this Institution will be resumed on the first Monday of January next. The Trustees are happy to announce that they have contracted with Mr. Lalor for the ensuing year. Mr. Lalor's abilities, classical attainments and industry as a teacher are well known. Parents, Guardians, &c, who send young gentlemen to this Institution, may rest assured, that every exertion will be used by him for their moral and literary improvement, and that they will be properly instructed in that course of the Greek and Latin Classics necessary to qualify them to enter the University. The airy, dry, and elevated situation of the School House, the salubrity of the air and excellence of the water, the low price of Board and Tuition, are a few of the many advantages which recommend this Institution to public patronage.
December 7th, 1824.                                           Jos. Small, Sec'y.
