The plan adopted in teaching, combines practice with theory : instead of using books, the pupils are exercised in making original entries of every day business transactions : Journauiing, posting, balancing accounts, opening and closing of a great variety of different sets of books, both for partnership and individual business, where the business hss been prosperous and adverse; and thus SuaUfying the student for entering into the practical uties of the accountant in any kind of business. The course of instruction will consist of DOUBLE ENTRY BOOK KEEPING, embracing every department of trade and mercantile accounts, vis: Wholesale, retail, commission, exchange, banking, manufacturing, shipping, Individual, partnership, steam boating, and compound company business; commercial calculations, practical penmanship, and Lectures on commercial law ; also, lectures on the science of accounts, customs of merchants, tee. In addition to the regular course of study, the undersigned has made arrangements with Messrs. lienry Snow, Esq., Hon. B. Storer. Prof. C. W. Wright and other eminent Lecturers, to deliver a course of lectures on the subjects of common law, history of commerce, political economy as connected with commerce, chemistry as connected with commerce, and other subjects of great Importance In m commercial point of view, never before introduced in any Mercantile College in the United States. Pupils are instructed individually, and not In classes, so that students may enter at any time, and proceed in the ratio of their capacity and assiduity. PubUo examinations are had (though pupils are examined privately if they desire it) when the atudent undergoes rigid and thorough interrogations by the Principal, (assisted by a committee of Practical Accountants and Business Men,) and Diplomas awarded to those who are deemed worthy of them. A course can be completed in from six to ten weeks. The Principal will take pleasure in doing everything in his power to advance his students, and make them thorough and accomplished accountants ; and his extensive acquaintance with the business community will generally enable him to procure situations for those desirous of obtaining them.

AN AWFUL PICTURE. The Rev. M. Beecham, a member of the "Lon don Wesleyan Mission," recently returned from a visit to Africa, and in the course of a sketch of the moral and social condition of tho ne groes inhabiting the Gold Coast and its vicinity. ne turnisnes a truly awtui picture, inns : " Scarcely has one of their barbarous and bloody customs been abandoned, from the ear liest period of which anything is known ot them, They still pave thoir court yards, palaces, and even ine streets or market places ol their villages or towns, with the skulls of those butchered in wars, at feasts, funerals, or as sacrifices to 'Bossuiu.' btili their wives and slaves are buried alive with the deceased husband or master. When Adahanzen died, two hundred aud ciirlitv of his wives were butchered before tbe arrival of his successor, which pat a stop to it only to in crease tho flow of blood and the number of deaths in other ways. The remaining living wives were buried alive 1 amidst dancing, singing, and bewailing, the noise of horns, drums, muskets, yells, groans, and screechings : the women inarching by headless trunks, bedaubed themselves with earth and blood. Their victims were marched along with large knives passed thro' their cheeks. The executioners struggle for the bloody office, while the victims look on and endure with apathy. They were too familiar with the horrid sacrilice to show terror, or to imagine that all was not as it Bhould be. Their hands were first chopped off, and then their heads sawed off, to prolong the amusement. Even some who assisted to fill the grave were hustled in alive, in order to add to the sport or solemnity of the scene. Upon the death of a king's brother, four thousand victims were thus sacrificed. These ceremonies are often repeated, and hun dreds slaughtered at every rehearsal. Upon the death of a king of Ashantee, a general massacre takes place, in winch there can be no computation of the victims. " At their 'Yam Customs,' Mr. Bowditch, wit nessed spectacles of the most appalling kind. Every caboceer, or noble, sacrificed a slave as be entered at the gate. Heads and skulls form ed the ornaments of their, possessions. Hun dreds were Blain; and the streaming and steam ing blood of the victims was mingled in a vast brass pan, with various vegetables and animal matter, fresh as well as putrid, to composo a powermi reticiie. At tnese customs, the Fame scenes of butchery and slaughter occur. The King's executioners traverse the city, killing all they meet. The next day desolation reigns over the land. Tbe King during the bloody saturnalia looked on eagerly, and danced in his chair with delight I " The King of Dahomey paves the approaches to his residence, and ornaments the battlements of his palace with the skulls of his victims; and the great Fetiche Tree at Badagry, has its widespread limbs laden with human carcasses and limbs. There the want of chastity is no disgrace, and the priests are employed as pimps. 'Murder, adultery, and thievery,' says Bosnian, are here no sins.' " How to spoil a Spirited Wife. " What do you speak in that way to your wife for, young man t" asked old uncle Rogers of his nephew. " Because it's fun to see her spark up," re plied the hopeful Benedict; "Hike to make her eye, shins, and her round cheeks grow red as any damask rose. And it's quite tragic the war she outs her little foot down and savs S-i-r ! e - . . . . , . , . . By ine aiuses i if you'd stayed long enough, uncle, I'd hare shown you a Queen.

You have heard "here uncle Rogers gave a great aigh " that I am not hap py at home ? My own fault ! Everr bit of it I' and the old man gave Mother Earth a savage blow with his cane.

There never need to have been a warm word between us, but 1 liked to see her angry. I liked to see the delicate nostrils expand the large bright eyes scintillate sparks of fire but I did it just once too often. I know the very time that anger raisod the final barrier of opposition, aud that nice sense of right became an exacting and imperious tormentor. And now your uncle is driven from the home of his nephew, where he hoped for peace, and tortured with the fresh opening of old wounds. I tell you, Hal, you will spoil your wife, you will ruin her ; it's not manly it s a burning shame" and tho old man's thin lips quivered with excitement.

And she replied, as sho hid her tearful face in his boiora "I am so quick, so passionate but indeed I never began it ; and you have been so noble that I will try and conquer this hasty temper. But Hal, the added, roughly, shaking her curls in hit face, " what will you do for your queen ?" what will become of Dido, tradegy, Ac, eh i" Her husband blushed. (I contend that a man looks handsome when he blushes,) and a kiss sealed the reconciliation. To-day, after forty ears of wedded life, Hal boasts that he remcm-ers but once making; np after a storm and that was away back in the honeymoon. Ever since he has had still waters and a steady voy age ; and Rogers, who died years ago peace be to hit ashes used to call Hal's home a paradise on earth. M. Delande, of Paris, has presented au inven tion, which consists in certain processes for pro ducing a new metallic alloy, similar to silver in appearance, and intended to supercede it in various applications. Tin forms the baso of the composition, and to prepare it, the inventor calcines it two or three times with saltpetre, and reduces the calcined part to powder, which is mel ted down In a crucible.

The surest' way to fill a private apartment, whether in a printing-ofliee, a cotton factory, or sausage-shop, with visitors, is to piace over the door a placard, bearing the inscription,-"No Ad-mittanenc."

" A boy, fourteen years of age, who has been confined for sometime in jail, was yesterday discharged."How my heart leaped as I read the above paragraph, from a daily paper. A boy confined in the county jail at such an age. I involuntarily' cast a glance at his previous history, and the causo of his degradation became manifest. Born of dissolute nnd intemperate parents, ho was early schooled in lessons of crime and debauchery. With no education save what he received from an intercourse with his degraded associates, it would indeed havo been a miracle had he escaped the dungeon's gloomy cell. What knows he of great and eternal principles otriyht? Nothing. His soul is unfed with the ' bread of life, and God is known only to be mocked. The precepts of Christianity are to him unknown, and the word of God as revealed to man is to him a sealed book. Poor boy 1 1 exclaimed; what a life of wretchedness is before you, unless providentially you be snatched from your downward course. Al ready within the walls of that dreary dungeon. tne unger oi scorn win oe poiniea at you by the rich, the poor, the roichty. the ercnt of earth. ' the christian and the infidel. All seek to drive you Trout the society of the virtuous, the educated and tho good. All join in warning their children to shun you as they would the poison ous auuer. Poor boy I You are cast out uopn a heartless world, poor, degraded, friendless, without money, starting, and to your entreaties for mercy, the multitude turn a deaf ear, and when you ask them for bread they coldly repulse you from their doors. Can we wonder' if you, plunge still deeper in crime and infamy 1 But see that aged man, with white cravat and golden spectacles, approaches you. His hand is extended towards you, nnd a friendly smile is printed upon his visage. Surely he is a friend, come to relieve you form your distress. From his side pocket he takes a package, and from it he selects " a tract .'" which he hands to you, carefully replaces the package in his huge pocket, and with an admonition to read it and practice its precepts, he passes on in his journey to administer spiritual food to other ' hungry victims. I will not picture the workings of that boy's mind as the muttered curses escape his lips. He read it and carefully practice its teachings I What knows he of the science of letters ? Alas, 'tis food of a different kind which ho desires food that will keep body and soul together. You may preach tho most sublime and soul-stirring truths of the christian religion to a starving man, but ho heeds it not. How can he, while the cravings of his nppetito for food to support his earthly existence is unendurable ? What folly then, to attempt a reformation of the child until he is removed from his evil associates and placed under tho guardianship of the benevolent and good, who will supply all his wants. The roof of the evil must be reached and destroyed, before the evil is removed, and this can only be done.by furnishing employment to the idle, by taking the dissolute, friendless and suffering boy into your family, and treat ing nun is iiuiuaii uuui. uupuuu upon 11, that just so long as you treat him as a vagabond , and outcast, that long will he continue to be ' one. Drive him from your doors and treat him with contempt, and you plunge him deeper in tne vortex oi ruin. I know that some conscientious beines may exclaim, "What I take the boy away from the control of his parents t" Yes.

Reverie of (he Church Sexton. ' " Splendid day ! We'll have quite a turn out. " There's nothing like sunshine to draw an audience. It's better than all the popular preachers that were ever born. Oh 1 there's my memoran- " dum book ; I'd like to have forgotten it, and if them directions hadn't been tended to, most like I should have lost my place.

" By order of Squire B., tho young man who ogles his daughter and wears plaid pants, is to be put somewhere on the other Bide of the church. " By order of the wealthy Miss Prudence Prim, the young man whose olothes smell of cigars and brandy, shall be set behind her. " The request of A., a mechanic, that strangers be not shown into his pew to bo attended to if convenient. " Quite a chapter anyhow. But people are beginning to streak in. There's two young women waiting. Common sort of folks, I giies. gentility don't come quite so early as this. 'Have a seat, marm.' Sho with a bow, ' If you please, sir.' No matter, politeness is a cheap article, it don't cost nothing. So here goes the two wo--men into one of the back wall pews.
