Yesterday was opened the French Academy, Where proper
masters are provided for different branches of education,
viz.
The French, English and Italian Languages, Dancing, Drawing,
and Fencing. The dancing schools are kept in the lower room
at the Freemason's Lodge, in Lodge-Alley, three times a
week, by Louis D'Orsiere, lately from France; who proposes
to teach all sorts of dances most in fashion in Europe, and
principal graces and manners.
The Fencing-School shall be by a very capable person in that
branch, who will attend every day in the week, except
Thursday.
