II. Dixon, the accomplished Principal, and his efficient assistants, Messrs. F. A. May and Wm. J. Maxwell; also to Messrs. L. C. Maxwell, John M. May and Vernon Smith, the devoted Trustees, who are earnestly hacking the teachers w ith their means and iutiuence that the Institution may l»e carried on to a still higher plane of usefulness. Prof. Dixon is a gradaate of the original Cambridge, where he also taught for several years, and he is one of the most progressive and thorough educators to Ve found anywhere in this or any other country.; To state that ‘ such a man is employed by them, is one of the highest compliments which could bo paid the Trustees.
