We are pleased to learn tliat tha Miases GüBK, uot disheartened by the recent disastrous flre, have already commenceil the erection of a new building, vhich, in location, jie, arrangement, and conveuirnce, frill be superior to tbe old olie, and fmuish accom'im)d.uions for au increased nuniber oí' pupila. They have purchased of the Woodbridge estáte, two loU on the corner of División and JJorth Streel, fronting Kast and South, have perfected the plans for tlreir building, let llio contract, and the Work has ahcody been coromenced. The new building will be 48 feet square, three Btories high, and will ftn nisli school rooms, and museum roouis, family rooms, and rooms in excess of their old number for the aceommodation of ion-resiilent pupil confided to their charge. The Misses Clakk have taxight a select diool for young ladies over twenty-five years, and have sustained for this time, unihterrupted, an institution of souud religious and iutellectual cliaracter, creditable to our city, and known throughout the State. - ■ffhilo a lftrge nuruber of the younger married ladies of our city point to the Misses 'Clark's School as their alma mater, they liava had confided to them lavge nurabers of young ladies from abroad, whose parents feit 'tbat their health, ïuinds, and moráis would be cared for. We hope that the friends of the Misses Clark, here and elsawhere, will come proniptly to their aid, and by genereus subicrtptkms, enable them to repair iu a nieasMi-e the Ios3 c .used by tho fire of the 4th 'inst., aud establish their school on a more .jirosperous and permanent basis than before. ïhe beauty of Ann Arbor, its exceediniily ■liealthy location, and the high cliaracter of its 'edueational institutions, combine to niake it a ■ilesirable placa as an educational center, and 'our citiiei)8 especially should lend a helping ■hand to so faithful workers in the field as the ■Misfes C. have proved themselves.
