Professor of Civil Engineering, Bacon College, Ky. The following extracts of letters from two of the most scientific men in our country, will show the utility of this School. Frankfort, Jnly 12th, 1836. Dear Sir ? The four young gentlemen from the Georgetown Mathematical School, who are engaged as assistants in the Engineer corps of the State, have performed the duties assigned them in a very satisfactory manner. Among the young gentlemen | of my acquaintance who have embraced the Pro fession of Civil Engineering, those who have been educated at Mathematical Schools have generally succeeded better than the graduates of our com ? mon Colleges. A knowledge of Mineralogy and Chemistry is of threat advantage to the Engineer ; and it is absolute !y necessary that he should be acquainted with Architectural or Line Drawing. The Student >beald he taught the principles of construction at the same time he is taught to make his drawing. Very* respectfully, Your obedient servant. SYLVESTER WELCH, (Engineer in Chief for the State of Ky.) ! To T. F. JOHNSON, Esq. Professor of Civil Engineering , Georgetown Ky. I Louisville, July 29th, 1836. Sir ? It affords me pleasure to testify to the very correct and satisfactory manner in which the two young gentlemen from your School have conducted ! themselvs during the time they have been in the service ; and the ability manifested by the prompt ' and skilful discharge of their several duties, is alike creditable to theni and the character of the institution in which they were instructed. The Books comprised in your course of studies are appropriate and well selected. I am pleased to hear that Topographical and Architectural Drawing is to form a part of your future course. This, is an elegant accomplishment to an Engineer, and in the early part of his career will frequently brinr tarn I into noticc and hasten his promotion tt> more respon se stations, where his talpp.tS may be fully devel oped. Appreciating as I do your efforts to elevate the ; prote?sion, I trust they will be crowned with success, i and I assure you it will afford me very great plea j sure to render any aid in my power to second your i vieyvs. Your most obedient, THOMAS F.

Green & Jenks, December8th, 183G 52 * T, MALE ACADEMY AT THE LIMESTONE SPRINGS. IIE Subscriber will, on Monday the 9tb ?f . January next, open a boarding school at the Limestone Springs in Spartanburg. At this insti tution, it is* intended to embrace a more extensive course of studies, than has heretofore been taught in Academies in this State. It is a lamentable, yet a well known fact, that in Grammar Schools our boys are drilled long and laboriously in the acquisi sition of the Greek and Latin languages, to the utter neglect of their mother tongue, 'is well as Natural Scrence, Mathematics, History, Oi youtb, who are taught in Academies, not more than (Wt fourth ever expect to receive a Collegiate education ; yet the course of studies is precisely the same for those who do not , as for those whw do intend to en ter College. The subscriber proposes, in our school at least, to remedy this evil, and to adapt the edu cation of his pupils to their views in after-life. While he will not neglect the preparation of young gentlemen for College, (the best security for which is the uniform iucce^? which h^s attended the appli cation of his scholars for admission there) he will in the instruction of others pay more especial attention to History, Natural History, Book-keeping, the more practically useful parts of Mathematics as fully and extensively as is nowtaught in our College, and to Elocution, by which is meant, not simply Oratory or Declamation, but especially good reading , which is so essential to every inan as well as scAafar. The healthfulnesss of the location, and its remoteness from all temptations to vice or immorality of any kind combine advantages presented by few, perhaps no institution in the State. The scholastic year will be divided into two equal sessions, commencing on the 1st of January and erring on the 1st of Nov. The terms per session will be 100 dollars, payable in advance, in eluding all the charges for board and tuition. The terms for day scholars will be 17 50-100 dol lars per session, payable in advance. Books, Sta tionary, &c. will be suppUed to those, who desire it, at the Columbia prices. Pupils will be received at any period of the session and charged according ly ; but no deduction will be made to those who leeve before the end of a session. Passage can be had in the Spartanburg Stage from Columbia, to the Springs. All letters of application must be directed to the subscriber at Columbia, until the New Year ? after that lime, at the Springs. J. M. DANIEL.
