HIGH SCHOOL
THE undersigned would announce to the Citizens of Dubuque, and the inhabitants of Northern Iowa, that they propose opening, on Monday, the 26th of Nov., in the large brick building adjacent to the Surveyor's General Office, a SCHOOL for the instruction in all the higher branches of learning. It is their design to establish upon a permanent basis, an Institution, where the Youth of both sexes may attain an Education, which will qualify them to fill, with honor and usefulness, any station in life. They hope, by untiring exertions, and a faithful regard to their trust, to merit and receive the confidence and support of the community.
They will never suffer the number of their Pupils to become so large as to cramp their efforts, and prevent them from doing ample justice to each and everyone committed to their care.
