The Lao School, has frequently been attepde4J
by young gentlemen licensed for the bar and il was
from their example that, was led to shorten the
time, as to them, III future and, to them it Is most
respectfully submitted, whether they hadnot better
make their first essay at the bar of the Mool-C

than 10 take the which is mole generally u,Ir
sued here let me invite their attention, 10 what
Mr. JEFFERSON says, In a letter to me, in rela.
ton to the LG,o School: s OF the utility of the in
stitutien there can be no doubt gives opportun-
ties to students of practising their lessons in rheto
rfc ofhabituating themselves think and to speak
:" will, method, and lessons the shock of a premier
" debut at the bar, so terrible in first essay of
strength before the publicn-And, now let me add
that with these advantages the student might ac-
quire, stock of practical knowledge, in tho same
time, which, he would never get by study.
The only advantage, the student has in reading
at the Laio School, over the student in his closet is
tho strict examination, he so frequently underrocs
upon the law and upon the practice oft.
1t is my purpose, If the students of the next session
ofthe Law School, shall wish it, without any other
expense to them, TO attach also, to the Lac School
| Moot Assembly, (once monthly composed of a
senate and house of delegates, TO be governed in all
respects by our constitution and laws; and to pro-
coed in all matters by the rules and regulations of
the General Assombly Of Virginia and by thu
| manual of MIR. Jefferson, when necessary: Aud
should be SO fortunate, in conducting the deiber
tons ofmy pupils, in their legislative operations
as have been in their judicial proceedings and
they shall be i'll like manner benefited shall b,
most amply rewarded. Every pledge that I have
made in relation 10 the publication of the journal of
the Lnc School, shall be redeemed according to tI,
pledge; And, if any doubt about the utility of
the oSceoi of the correctness of the proceed
IDgs in it, do most respectfully invite him to wish
it, and unless he is without any relish for the law
am persuaded, he would leave it under the uoss
friendly impressions.
| Twill only add, tnat the last THURSDAY in every
nlontb,is the day of public examination: and on
the last Friday i'll every month"; the JMoot-Co,ri ia
opened in any grade OF the courts which counsel
may ask for; and on every Saturday as a month";
iy court unless the Judge be absent aud if so,
when he returns, ha makes up for it: And, as 10
gentlemen, who left The las. session. under circun
stances over which they had no CONTROL before the
end of it, they will be allowed the time they lost
upon returning, in tho next session.
