ME second Session Of the Staunton Law
Schoofwlll commence on the lst Of De-
cember next, and terminate on the 18th of
April. The plan of instruction will en-
brace course of lectures, a few practical
works, frequent examinations, and moot
court. The object being TO impart such in
formation as is most useful 10 young gentle
men at the commencement Of their profess
sional career, great pains will be taken TO
make them familiar with the rules of urac-
tice, the principles and forms of pleading,
and the most important doctrines of the law
of evidence. The moot court was found
highly advantageous at the last Session, and
1T is hoped will be rendered still more S., at
the next by the employment of a regular
clerk, TO be elected and compensated for his
services by the pupils. In this mimic fri
bunal, suits bothat common law and in edui-
~ VIII be prosecuted and defended through
the different stages, a formal record kept oil

with entire appreciation by his class at the
last session.
The utility of law schools has been we'll
