A Caution,
TO THE CITIZENS OE HANCOCK,
Bui more particularly io those living
in the 102 d Dist. G. M.
WHERE AS it has been binding on me for
three or four years to lake up all slaves,
and tree pel sons of colour who are living in the
Dist., or in the village of Sparta contrary to the
law that was passed in Dec. 1832, for their regu
lations, and 1 having been put to much trouble
I about them, and not getting pay for my labor, and
lit doing no good, lam done with it. But, lie it
' known to the citizens of the 102 d district G.
M. that 1 shall take a shorter way to pat a stop to
it. The law is very pointed, that any white per
son offending against the provisions oi this act, be
indicted and prosecuted before the Superior court
for any such offence, and on conviction thereof,
shall forfeit and pay a fine of fifty dollars, and all
cost ofsaid suit, now if the owners, guardians and
managersof such, w ill read the law, they will find
they are not rs friendly to their country as they
think they arc. They were friendly enough with
me once, to employ an attorney to drive me and
other constables into our duty, ia hiiuging their
slaves before the courts for trial ; and have they
ever paid us our costs ? No 1 neither dd they ever
intend if they can help it, but 1 intend to have
mine. Have they ever paid their attorney that
they employed ! No 1 they think he is rich and
can do without it, and Rhodes is poor, and they
canswind.e him out of his fees. Notv there is
but little difference between your cases and mine,
mine is ten days imprisonment more than yours,
which Ido not intend to bear. I can employ an
attorney to attend to the business better than you
have, where he will get his fees; and 1 will get
mine that is behind, for I intend to have my full
cost. 1 know who they are that is owing cost,
and they that owe it know as well as I do, and
they would do well to pay it before an execution
comes after them for it. 1 also well know who it
is that give their slaves privilege of hiring their
o vn time, and I have sufficient proof, and mean to
try the project next Superior Court ; I shall take
every one indiscriminately, and they must take it
as well as they can, I expect they will think very
strange of this, that I have quit bringing their
slaves to court for trial, and bring the owners in
stead of the slaves, but 1 can tell my reasons for
that, there is more to be made by taking the own
ers, than the slaves, and all you who are guilty of
giving this privilege, you have given your slaves,
know it; and as I do not intend to be bothered any
more, with thoir slaves, 1 will take the owners
and bring them to court, and when they come to
pay fifty dollars, fine and cost of suit, oi; two or
threeslaves, they will learn to keepthem in away
that they ought, (if they are friendly to tho govern
ment) without having poor Rhodes dragging them
up to court for trial; and after trial, in less than
one week, they are buying their meats, and they
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 will steal
a pig from another person ; you who are letting
slaves do that way, mav watch them, for I intend
to watch you. HENRY W. RHODES.

The last Warning!!
THE undersigned respectfully asks all those
indebted to him, to make payment without
delay.
Between this time and the first «f October
next, lie feels assured, that all who desire to do
so, can make arrangements to meet their re
spective dues; and he appeals particularly to
those who are in arrears for two, * three, four,
and five years, to'come forward and settle up
their old scores at once.
This call is forced upon him by the imperi
ous necessity of meeting his own engagements;
which he is unable to do, without punctuality on
the part of those who owe him. Therefore
they arc hereby notified, that even one who
shall fail te make payment by the first day of
October next, will find their notes and accounts
in the hands of collecting officers, without dis
crimination.
This will be a painful step, but it cannot be
avoided; and those who fail to pay within tho
time above stated, ought not, and he trusts, will
not complain.

SCHOOL was opened in May 1835,
_E2_ in connexion with the Georgetown Col
lege Ky. It will hereafter be connected with
the Bacon College lately established at the same j
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 proses- 1
sion in our country.
Well instructed assistant Engineers now re
ceive from §IOOO to §3OOO per Annum, while
Principal Engineers readily obtain from §4OOO
to 10,' Oit a year.
Several young gentlemen have finished their
course at this School ami immediately obtain
ed employment at sl<'OU to S2OOO per an
num.
The favourable manner in which they have
been received by the most scientific Engineers
m the Union, has induced the subscriber to ex
tend the course of studies—to increase the. fa
cilitiesfor acquiring a thorough and correct prac
tical apd theoretical knowledge of the science,
and to adopt many valuable and important im
provements, suggested by the most eminent En
gineers in the United States.
A Student who has completed a regular course
of Mathematics may graduate in this school in
six months at an expense of $l2O or $l5O.
Others will require at least twelve nontbs—all
things being favourable

the utility of this School.
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 pi'i formed the duties assigned
them in a very satisfactory manner. Among
the young gentleman of my acquaintance who
i have embraced the Profession of Civil Engi
neering, those who have been educated al Ma
thematical Schools have generally succeeded
better than the graduates of our common Colle
ges.
A knowledge of Mineralogy and Chemistry
is of great advantage to the Engineer ; and it is
i absolutely necessary that he should be acquain
i ted with Architectural or Line Drawing. The
. j Student should be taught the principles of con
! struction at the same time he is taught to make
his drawing.
Very respectfully,
your obedient servant.

LOUIS VILLE-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 I
have conducted themselves during the time th?y j
have been in the service ; and the ability mam- |
tested by the prompt aud skilful discharge of
their several duties, is alike creditable to them ;
and the character of the institution in which j
they were instructed.
The B.i.iks 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 your fu
ture course. This is an elegant accomplishment
to an Engriieer, and in the early part of his ca
reer will frequently bring him into notice and
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 1 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,

for discretion, mildness and skill; These gentle
men will devote themselves to the intellectual
and moral advancement ofthe pupils committed

The Trustees invite the patronage ofthe

lory nanner. The pleasantness of its location,,
its quiet and retired position, and the charactes
of the community in which it is placed, combine
to make this establishment a desirable and sals
place of result.
The manners, health, and morals will receiv*
particular attention. Students from abroadl
may be accommodated with board in good fami
lies, at a reasonable rate.
, The plan of instruction will embrace the stu
dies necessary for admission into our Colleges,
or useful to those intended lor the active pur
suits of life ; also the French and Spanish lan

Princi/Acs.
Ist. The Government, as far as possible, will s
be founded on the pupil’s sense of right and
wrong, instead oi using corporeal punishment
in common cases, those motives winch are to
operate m alter me will be thoroughly tried to
produce propriety oi conduct and industrious
application ; believing, as we do, with the dis
tinguished Eeliiuburgii, that those principles
should govern youth which are to govern man
hood ; and they will effectually do it with a
proper action and cu-operatiou of parents and
teachers.
2d. We are decidedly opposed to that mode
ot instruction wmeh gives a precocious devel
opemeul to the memory at the expense of the,
judgment. Ibis we believe to be a common
lauit m nearly all our schools. It is so much'
more the teacher’s ease lo give a portion of the
text book to be commuted, and then listen to
its repetition, than to lead the understanding,
step, iroiy known io unknown truths, that the'
lormcr course is usually adopted. M e conceive
that to be the ot.ly emcient mode which makes
an equal demand on the memory and judgment
•-uid luCie objects will be constantly kept in view.
3d. Almongb we propose to ourselves a sys '
tern, we snail take care that it does dot interfere
with what we owe lo Hie different capacities of
pupils ; their previous advantages, powers of
apprehension, reasoning, <fcc. We shall not
adiiere to an a prion meory, but take our in-'
dicaiions empirically trom the nature of the
case.
4th. Care will be taken to avoid every thing
like technical unvaried an angement, which pro
duces on the mind the same effect that monoto
nous sounds do on the animal spirits ; and tend
to lull the judgment asleep. The thrice told
tale may proceed mechanically from the lips of
the speaker equally deceiving the teacher and
pupil ; the mind being on the words, and the
idea conveyed by them passed over.—Routine
should be suspended, when it injures the process
ol thinking. By departing from system in such
Cases, die iniiid receives a concussion which is
salutary. The rule may be repeated, and well
repealed, without ti.e scholar’s annexing any
jpea to it ; but the reason ot the rule is what on
ail occasions should be requirt d.
sth. We are hilly persuaded, by experi
ence of the great importance of frequently re
