MALE SEMINARY.

Mrs. Shelley, widow ofthe late Mai.
Daniel Sheffey, has addressed card to
the public, containing proposals for o.
.Pening on the first Of November, at
Stanton, seminary for the education
ofyoung Ladies: Whatever may be the
motive of Mrs. Sheffey for this underta-
king, we wish her every encouragement
and success in her laudable design. A
part from the importance of such insti-
'tutiens to the female part of the commu-
nifty, the known character and accom-
rplishments ofthis Lady, will scarcely fail
ito gain dignity and attach public conf
'dence to any seminary over which she
may preside.

AN EXPLANATION OF THE "AMER1cAs
STUDENTS GUIDE"
In the compilation ofthe American
Students Guide" correctness and per-
spicuity have been carefully and punctu-
ally attended to.-The Rules are differ
emily arranged from any Author l have
heretofore noticed, but l have followed
that order which an experience of thir-
ty-eight years in the practice of tuition
has taught me to be the most alternating
to preceptors and beneficial to students
The different Rules are divided into va
rious cases, and the most improving and
useful questions are selected for each
case; one of which is explicitly wrought
and explained at the beginning of the
case, and the answers given to the rest
Several new modes of contracted opera
tons will appear in plain and familiar
manner. Vulgar and Demical Fractions
the Extraction of Roots, Annuities, Pen
sions, &c. in Arrears, Single and Double
Position, Allegation, PROFESSIONS, Per-
mutations, and Combination of Numbers,
Artifcers' Work, and Gauging, are ex-
planned and exemplitied so conspicuous
ly, that they are ineligible to the most
common capacity. Finally, youth of
tolerable genius and assiduous application
may acquire competent knowledge of
ARITHMETIC without the assistance of a
teacher, after having learned the elemen-
tarY rules.

who made his escape "from two young men
in Monroe, at the expense Of his coat and
bundle"
A negro man presented himself TO the fer
lyman Of New river ferry, and asked TO be
taken across he was asked for his pass-he
said he had none, but that he belonged TO a
MIR. Hurd OF Franklin, and was on business;
the ferryman charged him with being run
away, and attempted 10 arrest him, but he
fled and escaped. A few days afterwards he
was found floating down the river, with his
pantaloons tied around his neck. He had a
bout him large Spanish knife, pistol and a
watch. The description of his person, as to
size, age and marks, agree with that given
IN the Governors proclamation.

FIRE.-The Barn of Mr.. Smith near

sumed by fire, on Monday night last,

siderable. Two negroes have been COM

petrated the crime: one of them, wo-
man, has since confessed the act.
