respectfully submitted, whether they had not bctter
make their first essay at the bar of the Moot Court
attached TO the Lac School, for the time proposed

MIR. JEFFERSON says, in a letter TO me, in rea-
ton to the Lar School: "Ofthe utility of the in
" stituten there can be no doubt gives opportuni
ties to students of practising their lessons in rheto
ric OF habuating themselves to think and 10 speak
" with method, and lessons the shock of premier
" debut at the bar, terrible in a first essay OF
strength before the pubc"-And, now let me add
that, with these advantages the student might ac-
quire, stock Of practical knowledge, in the SANG
time, which, ne would never get by study.
The only advantage, the student has i'm rcadipa
at the LnV School, over the student in his closet is
the strict examination, he frequently undereces
upon the law and upon the pra cticc oft.
1t is my purposes if the students of the next session
of the Law School, shall wish it, without any other
cxpenscio them, to attach also to the Lar School,
| .boof assembly, (once rnontli) composed of a
senate and house Of delegates, be governed in all
respects, by constitution and laws; and to pro-
coed In all matters by the rules and regulations of
the General Assembly of Virginia; and by the
| manual of Mr. Jefferson, when necessary: And
Should be so fortunate, in conducting the Gcbera-
tons of,ny pupils in their legislative operations,
| as have been in their judicial proceedings, and
they shall he III like manner benefited | shall he
most amply rewarded Every pledge that | have
made III relation TO the publication of the journal of
the Lar School, shall be redeemed according TO th,.
pledge; And, if any one doubt about the utility Of
the Ldp School, or of the the proceed
ings in it, do most respectfully invite him TO visit
it, and unless he is without any relish for the law
am persuaded, he would leave il under the most
] friendly impressions.
| will only add, that the last Thursday in every
month, is the day of public examination: and on
the last Friday iii every month, the Moot Court is
opened in any grade Of the courts Which counsel
may ask for; and, every Saturday as month
Iy court unless the judge be absent and if so,
when he returns ha makes up for il, And, as to
gentlemen who left the last session, under circum-
stancesspyer which they had CONTROL before the
end of it, they will be allowed the time they lost,
upon returning, in the next session.
