Citizens of Kaleigh in general, that the present Quarter of his School
trill end the 15th of September, and the next will commence on the
10th. Tie will, at the same time, open an Evening School for the pur¬
pose of instructing Children of Colour, as he intends, for tlm accommo¬
dation of some of his employers, to exclude all Children of Colour from
his Day School.
The Evening School will commence at an hour by Sun. When the
white children leave the House, those of colour will take their places,
and continue until ten o’clock.
The terms of teaching the white children will be as usual, two and a
half dollars per quarter; these of colour, one dollar and three quar¬
ters. Tn both eases, the whole of the money to be paid in advance to

most beautiful hand, was very correct in his manners, and a very reli¬
gious and intelligent character.
