A —MISS LYFORD, having recently arrived in
this city, from Baltimore, is desirous of forming a
clufs of pupils in MUSIC and FRENCH. She is
aware that the time usually chosen by parents and
gnnrdians for selecting the instructors of their daugh
ters and WaTds, is past; but as she doe* not intend to
teach the English Dranches, she believes that her ad
vertisement will not be considered out of place.
Miss L. desires to call especial attention to her plan '
of teaching French. Instruction in tbe language is
given in a manner that enables the scholar to com
mence conversation in it almost immediately, and
thus to acquire a perfect knowledge of it vfrirhx grear
facility. It has been the custom of Miss L. to cause
her pnpils to begin conversation as soon us they afc
quire tile rudiments of th« language: coni<equenrly,
they do not labor under the disadvantage*
in many schools, of being unablato sp«ak a t.r to un
derstand it wbeoSpoken; thoujih perhaps perfoctly
able to read and write it. Miss L. commenced the
study of the French in early childhood, continued it
under native teucheru, and completed it in a distin-
Euislied foreign tamiiy, that of the sister-in-law bf
>on Calderon de la Larca, lata Minister from Spain
to the United States. »««•

to the plan pursued by the most eminent Professors
.f Baltimore. As tbe attention of Miss Lyford ba*
been particularly directed to the study of Music anrt
KrencU, and «»she has had experience and success in
touching these branches of a pelite Eopi-ition, she
j hopes that she may be deemed jwth»4f't!ie conti
nence of a discerning public. >.
Besides the names appended, which are all it is
thought necessary to publish from an extensive list,
Miss L. refers to the parents of her.scholars in Essex,
King William, King and and Gloucester coun
ties : in the two last named slw has been teaching
the above branches in conjunction with the English
for the last three years.
It is the wish of Miss Lyford to commence her
course of instruction early in the month of Jar uarv,
1851. All who are desirous of entering rhn classes
will therefore make immediate application, when
her terms will be made known.
