A second time a school has been collected of over one hundred scholars, but, up to the present time, August, 1859, the trustees of the building have never received any sort of compensation for the use of the rooms, occupied by the Institute. Mr.J.G.Goodridge, lately a teacher of a Public School, in York, Pa, has now rented the rooms, and his friends feel great confidence in the success of his labors. It may be remarked, that the large colored population of Baltimore, now from thirty to forty thousand souls, have no sort of Public School provision made for them, by the city or state governments.
They are left entirely to themselves for any education they may obtain. The above named Institute combines advantages for the education of colored children far superior to any other in the city.
