about them, and not getting pay tor my labor, ami
it doing no good, lam done w ith it. But, be it
i known io the citizens ot the Bigd district G.
. M. that I shall take a shorter way to pat a stop to
it. The law is very point d, that any white per
. son offending against the provisions ol this act, be
indicted and prosecuted belure the ' uperiur court
for any such offence, mid on convT-'.ioii thereof,
shall ti.rfeit and pay a line of fifty dollars, and ail I
cost ofs.nd suit, now il the owucis, guardians and I
mauagersof such, w ill road tiielaw, they will find ]
they arc not s friendly to theii country as they I
think they are. They were friendly enough w iili j
me once, to employ an attorney to drive me and I
r other constables into our duty, ih bringing their!
slaves before the courts for trial ; and have they
ever paid us our co-ts I No ! neither de they ever
1 intend it they can help it, but 1 intend to have
i mine. Ilaie they ever paid their attor. ey that
» they employed / No! they iliiuk be is rich and
| ! can do without it, and Rhodes is poor, and they
can swindle him out ot ins fees. Now there is
. I but little difference between your cases and mine,
mine is ten days imprisonment more than yours,
which Ido not intend tobear. J can employ an
attorney to attend to the business better than you
have, where be will get his fees; and 1 will get
‘ mine that is behind, for i intend to have my lull
cost. 1 know who they are that is owing cost,
> and they that owe it know as well as 1 do. and
‘ \ they would do well to pay it before an execution
1 j comes alter them for it. 1 also w ell know who it
’listhat give their slaves privilege of hiring tiieir
I o n. l ime, and I have sufficient proof, and mean to
' try the proj-cl next Superior Court ; 1 shall take
s everyone indiscriminately, and they must take it
" as well its they can, I expect they iviil think very
* strange of this, that 1 have quit bringing their
slaves to court for trial, and bring the owners in-,
■ stead of the slaves, but I can tell my reasons for
’ that, there is more to be made by taking the own
’ ers, than the slaves, and ad you who are guilty of
’ giving this privilege, you have given your slaves,
1 know it; and as Ido not intend to be bothered any
1 more, with their slaves, i will take the owners
■ and bring them to court, and w hen they come to
pay fifty dollars, fine and cost of suit, on two or
three slaves, they will learn to keep them in away
that they ought, (if they are friendly to the govern-
I incut) without having poor It bodes dragging them
up to court for trial ; and after trial, in less than
one week, they ate buying their meats, and they
j. will buy a small bit to-day, and steal twice as much
next, day, they will buy a chicken from a friend
Friday night, and Saturday night they w ill steal
I a pig from another person ; you who tire letting
slaves do that way, may watch them, for I intend

GEOli GE TOWN, KENTUCKY.
THIS SCHOOL was opened in May 1835,
in connexion with the Georgetown Col

tin- Bacon College lately established at the same
place.
The great and increasing demand for Civil
Engineers throughout the United States, affords
to young gentlemen who embark in this business,
a more lucrative salary, than any other profes
si m in our country.
Well instructed assistant Engineers now re
ceive from SIOOO io S3OOO per Annum, while
Principal Engineers readily obtain from S4OOO
to 10,' o>< a year.
Several young gentlemen have finished their
course at this School and innnediately obtain
ed employment at sl. W to S2OOO per an
num.
Tiie favourable manner in wlf ch they have
been received by tho most scientific Engineers
in the Union, has induced the subscriber to ex
tend the course of studies —to increase the fa
cilities for acquiring a thorough and correct prac
tical and theoretical knowledge of the science,
and to adopt many valuable and important im
provements, suggested by the most eminent En
gineers in the I uited States.
A Student who lias completed a regular course
of Mathematics may graduate in this school in
six months at an expense of $l2O or $l5O.
Others will require al least twelve r. ontlis—all
things being favourable

FRANKFORT, July 19th 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 tbe duties assigned
them in a very satisfactory manner. Among
the young gentleman of my acquaintance who
have embraced the Profession of Civil Engi
neering, those who have been educated at Ma
thematical Schools have generally succeeded
better than the graduates of our common Collo-
A knowledge of Mineralogy and Chemistry
’ is of gruat advantage to the Engineer ; and it is
absolutely necessary that be should be acquain

his drawing.
A ery respectfully,
your obedient servant.

LOUISVILLE July 29th,1836.
Sir—lt affords me pleasure to testify to the
very correct and satisfactory manner in which
the two young gentlemen from your School
have conducted themselves during the time they
have been in the service ; and the ability mani
fested by the prompt and skilful discharge of
their several duties, is alike creditable to them
and the character of the institution in which
thev were instructed.
The Books comprised in your course of stu
dies are appropriate and well selected. I am
pleased to hear that Topographical and Archi
tectural Drawing is to form a part of yonr fu
li lure course. This is an elegant accomplishment !
! to an Engineer, and in the early part ot his ea- '
j reer will frequently bring him into notice and
j hasten his promotion to more responsible sta
tions, where his talents may be fully devel
oped.
Appreciating as I do your efforts to elevate
the profession, I trust they will be crowned with :
success, and I assure you it will afford me very !
great pleasure to render any aid in my power to
second your views.
Your most obedient,
THOS. F. PURCELL,
