L.H. GIRARDIN
HAS the pleasure to Inform hia Patrons,
end the Parents end Guardians of
yon»h, In general, that the teacher of the
Ekclish Branches announced in his
faovisoxt Notics, will be Mr. Francis
Power, a gentleman recommended hy Eu
ropean characters of liljjh respectability
to the venerable Doctor John Carrol, Bish
op of Baltimore, and whose conduct, and
display of abilities have uniformly been
seels at to justify the eulogies of his
friends.
In a letter to L. H. Girardin the R. R.
Dr. Carroll expresses h mself, respecting
Mr. Power, in the following terms.
** Mr Power iarery respectably connect
ed—his manners 8t address are highly gen.
tlemanly. Besides, possessing the talents
requisite for teaching the branches
mentioned in your letter, ha lias res.
pectable testimonials of his ability to give
lessons in the Classics, Greek and Latin,
and In the Mathematics. In short, 1 do not
think that you can find in America a per
son better fitted for the employment, in
respect bothjto character and abilities.
One of Mr. Power*!' qualifications is to
speak Che French language, See,**
Very satisfactory specimens of Mr Pow
er*s penmanship may be seen upon ap.
plication to L H.Girardin, by such Par*
enta and Guardians, as attach to that
branch a" peculiar value
Id consequence of the above, L. H. Gir.
ardin's establishment will, from the first
o' S pt. next, stand on the following ba
sis i
The Greek, Latin, French and Italian
Languages, Geography, Civil and Natural
History, and, eventually, the literary and
moral course will be taught by L. II. Gir.

It is earnestly hoped that Mr. E. Ran
dolph will carry into executiou his inten.
ded plan of lecturing either' at the Capi
tol, or in some othet convenient place, up
on Rhetoric, Law, and. perhaps. Political
Economy.
L» H* Gimrdin ha* now removed hit fa.
roily to Richmond, with an intention to de
vote himself more .particularly than ever
to the instruction of youth. To the female
pupils Mrs. Girardm will extend a par
. ticular, and, indeed, maternal attention_
Young Ladies, may, for a. moderate dis
; tinct charge, acquire at the Academy, the
ornamental arts, such as Landscape, Fi.
gure, and flower drawing, and painting,
! together with Vocal and Instrumental Mu
, re. The choice of Masters for those
I branches shall be entirely left to Parents
; and Guardians. —.It is contemplated spee
dily to print both the rules and the terms.
. Copies of the same will be delivered to ap.
j plicants. Suffice it to premise that the rul~t
’ shall be rational and mild, yet, such as
! energetically to promote both intellectual
aod moral improvement. The primary
I the sacred objects of a school shall in no
instance be sacrificed to undue considera
tion*.—As to the terms, L. H. Girardin is
convinced that-they will be found satis
factory, never having ooscryed a rcluc.
Unce on the part of Parents and Guardi
ans to be just, and even liberal, where a.
bilities, zeal, ami system are combined.
The above plan will be carried into o
: peration Iroin the first oi September next
at the house lately occupied by Mr. E?
Randolph, near the Capitol.

•Oliver EVANS’ patented screw I
MILLS, a perpendicular and horisomal
form, fn cast iroo metnl of the hardest tem
per- 1 have carried the screws to the pub
lic armory for the inspection of gentlemen
farmers and millers whodevre to use them,
where I can have others cast for sale. The
Screw Mills of either form will be sold at
the moderate price of 65 Dollars, including
the patent fee of twanty dollars. These
screw skills have been found nothw&rdly,
where they are much in use, to be a very
profitable machine, to farmers in breaking
the corn and cobb together, to epdtrte Their
stock to consume the whole nnjntqjiWi wVh
ease and benefit. It hss beef asatttainld
that two barrels of corn anmcobhBrokfn
together by these screws,, aremillywqualAo
three barrels given in the^tsual why.
Alio, for breaking Plaster of Pant’Urtroall
lumps for grinding in mills for manure i
Also, those who are in the habit of distil,
ling spirits, may extract an additional quan.
tity from corn and c-.-bh l>r<>la• n together.
It must be acknowledged by all, that siock
would not,eat ti:e cobo by degrees as they
generally do, w re it ntt for thd nourish
ment they receive from .t. The screws may
he put io motion from a mill at small ex.
pense, and farmers iw*y give them motion
by & crank similar io * gr adstone. The
Satentee of these screws has authorised me,
is agent, to make such alterations in the
constructions as to grind small homony,
but these alterations must not alfrctthe two
grand principles of the invention. Having
had some experience of mill operatons,, I
will choose bolting cloths for millers the
best in this market. The public may be
assured 1 will serve them with pleasure,
and hope to share their commands, which
will be punctually attended to by their most
obedient,
