lishing schools at Lynn, Cambridge, and 
Downham, to promote the intellectnal know- 
ledge of many of her own sex, who might 
otherwise have remained in ignorance. The 
school at present consists of between 40 and 
50. pupils, and is daily increasing. 
At a special General Meeting. of, the 
Trustees of the Charity Schovis of the same 
city, it was unanimously resolved to new 
model the Girls’ Schools, upon Dr. Bell's 
and Mr. Lancaster’s plan 3 and a Committee

appoint a proper mistress, and to take such 
other steps as niay best carry the designs of 
the meeting into effect. This plan will ena.
