It is true I am but a comparative stranger in the City, have made the acquaintance of but few practical accountants and business men, have formed rather a favorable opinion of those with whom I have become acquainted ; had thought they were not very neighborly, but I was quite certain that when we become a little more intimate, we would be as friendly as David and Jonathan were. But please Mr. H- explain yourself more fully on this subject ?"

J. J -. " Quite well sir."

Oh ! Fudge; said he all a " Humbug" sir, a " Humbug." You cannot learn any thing there, it is only throwing away time and money without the possibility of any practical good to be derived ; and such was my confidence in the gentleman's judgment and his kind intentions toward me as a friend, that I dropped off attending your School, and made engagements with S., Bro. & Co. at a nominal salary and left for Illinois. Some weeks since I received a letter from Mr. P. containing a proposition for me to take charge of their Books-on condition, that I would take a preparatory course of instruction in your Institution, which I have accordingly done, to my entire satisfac- tion, and to-morrow I take charge of A. & P.'s Books with full coufidence in my [OVER.]

ability to keep them correctly and to their satisfaction ; and had I known as much of your Institution at the time I spoke to Mr. - as I do now, I could have had double the salary and two years of valuable experience, and but for Mr. P. I should have remained ignorant of the true nature and design of your Institution, as I pre- sume thousands in this City are at this time."
Mr. H- took charge of the Books referred to, at the time specified ; and from that day until now he has been recognized as a competent Book-Keeper, and pur- sued no other profession, although he had never written in Books kept by Double- Entry previously to his entering this Institution.
This is but a fair specimen of what we could present by the hundred, during our first four or five years experience in this City, of young gentlemen of good business habits, writing beautifully, ready and accurate in their calculations, and perfectly familiarized with business routine-who might this day command their Twelve Hundred dollars per annum, had they not become the unsuspecting Dupes of this class of " Old Fogies." And whom have these " Old Fogies" benefited by their " Dog-in-the-Manger" policy ? Have they benevolently stepped forward and sup- plied these young gentlemen and the business community with this lack of compe- tent practical instruction ? Not they ! When experienced Practical Accountants adopt teaching as a profession, and organize an Institution with all the facilities known in the actual performance of their duties in the Counting-House, do these " ancient worthies" visit such Institutions and speak from what they have seen or known ? Not they ! Their argument is " we have attended Commercial Schools " DOWN EAST" and were Hum- bugged ! They have not got any thing as good " OUT WEST," as they have " ON EAST" ! ! Therefore all Commercial Schools and Colleges are " Humbugs" ! !! It is true that for a time they succeeded in diverting the attention of just such young gentlemen as were the best qualified to appreciate the merits or to condemn the policy of an In- stitution of this kind. But then we have goue to the carpenter shop, to the paiut shop, to the printing office, and to the plough handle and selected our materials and produced a class of Book-Keepers of an entirely new and different, stamp. These old fashioned Accountants understand Book-Keeping, but " THEY DON'T KNOW ANY THING ELSE" ! ! This new class of Accountants, were business men in the enlarged sense of that term, before taking lessons in Book-Keeping and mercantile usages. Educated in the school of experience in which men as they are, and things as they should be, constitute the standard Text Book. Raised to business, accustomed to industrial pursuits, and not ashamed, or too proud to work. Thus in keeping with the progress of this wonderful age, the economical merchant is accommodated with a Book-Keeper and a Practical Business Man in the same contract. Practical Accoun- tants, Business Men, and gentlemen desirous of qualifying themselves for business pursuits are urgently, but respectfully requested to visit our rooms during business hours, and examiue our mode of imparting instruction, in contradistinction to that ordinarily adopted in Schools and Colleges, and become personally acquainted with the actual workings of this Institution, as such visits do not in the least interrupt the regular operations of the School.
Respectfully yours, JONATHAN JONES.

EPISTOLARY PENMANSHIP.
BY S. D. HAYDEN.
To write a plain, legible, chaste and uniform "Letter-Hand," is a desirable ac- complishment in the education of every Lady. But how few acquire this invaluable art iu our best English and Classical High Schools? This is owing to the fact that Teachers themselves have not given the subject the attention requisite to master a practical system, such as may be taught with success. Many write beautifully them- selves, who utterly fail in an attempt to enable others to execute with similar ease and elegance; and it may be asked, why is it so? We uuhesitatingly reply, their systems are to them intuitive. Peumanship, as a mechanical art, is the result of a combined motion of the arm, the wrist, and the fingers. . No one but au artist can be taught to write by imitation alone, while all may be taught a beautiful haud by a proper system of training.
DOUBLE-ENTRY BOOK-KEEPING.
BY JONATHAN JONES.
We are not unconscious of the fact that some, in this community, will attach "novelty" to the idea of imparting instruction to Ladies iu the science of managing accounts; ueither are we strangers to what it requires in the way of expenditure and persevering toil to revolutionize popular sentiment, where an entire business community have been long accustomed to look one way at the subject, but expe- rience has long since convinced us that it is but an easy task to teach a person a thing which it is his interest to know, or to enlist the co-operation of a class deserved- ly popular for their enlightened liberality and enlarged views of progressive im- provements and practical reforms.
The only questions with us have been, Is it practicable, and of public utility? Can we accomplish the object with credit to ourselves and with profit to others.
IS IT PRACTICABLE, AND OF PUBLIC UTILITY? From well digested and universally conceded premises, we anticipate but little difficulty in maintaining the affirma- tive against the possibility of successful contradiction. The leading design of educa- tion being to qualify its recipients for a practical performance of the duties of life, it only remaius for us to show that many of the duties of life, devolving upon ladies, re- quire a knowledge of accounts, and we shall have accomplished our object.
For us, even in this country, to see a lady, as a natural guardian, assume the administration of a large estate, creates no unusual surprise, though she may be totally ignorant touching the management of accounts, and unfamiliarized with a general business routiue. Waiving the numerous embarrassments, always conse- quent upon a transition from the control of one kind of business to that of another so different in its nature and requirements, what must be the result? Again, if the accumulation of that estate required years of persevering application to business, with tact, taleut, and practical knowledge of accounts, is it presumable that a lady, wholly destitute of a "business education," can successfully and profitably direct affairs? Do not experience and observation too frequently prove that she and hers become an easy prey to "Interested Financiers," for the want of this very species of information? We ouly desire to direct public attention to a few of the leading principles which have actuated us in the commencement of an enterprise, though new in this country, none the less important, as experience has elsewhere proved. It is no uuusual occurrence in Philadelphia, Liverpool or Paris, to see a lady of the highest respectability in full charge of a set of books; and why should it not be the [OVER ]

JONES' COMMERCIAL COLLEGE.
case in this city, where a number of ladies have distinguished themselves in the mercantile community, as equally successful as gentlemen, in commanding the trade and in fostering their means.
CAN WE ACCOMPLISHI THIE OBJECT WITH CREDIT TO OURSELVES AND PROFIT TO OTHERS? Although during the past ten years, we have often been solicited by ladies for in- struction in Book-Keeping, until the present we have invariably declined, owing mainly to two causes.
First. Our efforts to form a reputation as a successful teacher was an experi- meut in the estimation of the business community of questionable utility, owing altogether to the fact that numerous unqualified and inexperienced teachers had extorted sums for pretending to do what they could not accomplish. It was almost universally declared, that no one could be qualified in a school for the practical performance of an accountant's duties.
We were once four months in this city without receiving a single pupil, aud we state nothing more than an examination of our catalogue, for the last four years, will prove to be strictly true, when we thus publicly declare, that we have compelled this com- munity to acknowledge the genuineness of our credentials as a Professional Teacher, and to most amply and satisfactorily compensate us for our services while doing so ; and we might furthermore state, (did not modesty forbid,) that we have revolution- ized popular sentiment upon this subject, and established an institution upon a per- manent basis for the education of gentlemen for business pursuits, not surpassed, if equaled, by any Commercial College in the United States.
And how have we accomplished our object ?
We have taken mechanics from the workshop, and salesmen from behind the counter, and qualified them as practical accountants for the situations they now hold-more than one hundred and eighty of whom are now in this city, performing their duties just as practically, and receiving just as good salaries as those raised in the counting-house. And it is our un wavering opinion, that we can accomplish just as satisfactory results by the instruction of ladies.
Secondly. We have not hitherto had the facilities for fitting up such apartments as we thought would be in keeping with the class of pupils who would be most likely benefited by such instruction ; but we flatter ourselves in the belief that all such objections will disappear upon a visit to the " Young Ladies' Collegiate Institute." The rooms are entirely disconnected, and the hours of instruction are so arranged as not to conflict with "Joues' Commercial College," and " Stewart's Mathematical Institute."
Ladies may enter for the above courses separately for the entire number ; but in no case will payment be exacted for any but the branches in which the lady may have received instruction.
" THE TUITION FEES in the respective Departments arc the same as charged in Jones' Commercial College and Stewart's Mathematical Institute, for the same branches, AND UNI- FORMLY PAYABLE IN ADVANCE. The importance of this rule will appear evident to all, as our charge is not for time, nor for a given number of lessons, but for completing the pupil in the respective branch for which she may register herself. She having the privilege of completing, or reviewing the same at option, during life, free of additional charge, renders it imperious that this rule be invariably complied with.
Charles Stelvart's Mathematical Institute. Corner of Third Street and Washington Avenue.
This Institution has been in successful operation for the last eight years, under the exclusive control of CHAS. STEWART, and the success which has attended it renders its location permanent. This Iustitution possesses peculiar advantages over other institutions of learning, in this respect-it enables the student to devote his entire attention to one branch of study-thus enabling him to gain a more thorough knowl- edge of any branch of mathematics, or the entire course, in about one-fifth part of
