Professor Fauvel- Gouraud-To Editors in
Ohio. Kentucky and othe- Western

GESTLEMES-Sincc the opening OF my Glasses
in New York, repeatedly promised TO all the men,
bers assembled that should, with pleasure, at the
close of my Lectures accredit t7itbom any charge,
or stipulated remuneration Of any description, any
member who might wish to GO through the country
for the purpose of teaching the System 10 those
whom could no; possibly visit myself before a long
time. The only condition stipulated, IN the behaY
of the public and tie character Of my System was,
that nv credentials would be given TO those only
who could produce to me upon examination, test-
monials Of cAPAg1LIrY, and unquestionablc test
monials OF CHARACTER, for supposed that there
could not be one single member OF my Glasses who
would dare to call upon the patronage and conf
dence OF the public, and shrink before request of
this nature, which to comply with an honest man is
always so pro m hand But have since OBJ
tanned bitter CO l,boration Of the old proverb =
There are few flocks without black sheep"
see by some Western papers that several indl-
vduals eager to speculate upon the public good faith
and the curiosity which the popularity and wonder
full success of my teachings have excited in New
York, have already, ard even long before my Lee
lures were over here, embarked in of the most
impudent species of attempt at imposition that ever
was tried upon an intelligent people. Already the
communities OF Boston, Buffalo, Cleveland, and one
or two other cities, have done complete justice TO
few of those spurious pretenders to public favor
| And | perceive AGAIN that at tins moment an midi
vdual styling himself ProfessorF ST. "agehrIe
man ofhigh character, tsays = and who has
considerably improved upon NJ '',aud's system,
| by calling it, upon the high az oil Professor
Anthon) Nlnemonotechny, trying to form
classes in Louisville, Cincinnali, &c giving peo-
pie to understand that he has credentials from me-
PROT Branch adds the paper brings letters of in
PRODUCTION from New iork, and he IS July capa-
| be 10 teach Mr. Gourauds SYSTEM &c. &c.
If this Professor Brauch is FULLY capable TO teach
my SYSTEM why then did he not apply to me for
| credentials which would have cost HIM nothing, but
an examination of his capabilities and moral worth!
If this Prof. Branch again Is man OF SO htSh
! character, how is that he did so deliberately COM
nit the breach of faith of which he has rendered
himself guilty, as his own signature auhcntlcates
for every member of my classes have pledged their
SACRED HONOR not 10 teach my system to any per-
son whatsoever, until the end otmy lectures IN N. y
now my last lecture in H. Y. took place on Satur
day last, and find it authenticated iii the Louisville
| Journal that this very Professor Branch had made
one pupil at least i'll the steamboat from n. O. to
| Louisville long before my lectures were completed
| in n. Y. How then besides, can he teach the sys-
tenn so qunifedly without even having gone through
the ha!f Of the course am not therefore aston
ished that Professor Branch did not apply for test
monias of character and for proper credentials TO
the one who certainly can Judge better than
others of his capabillty for teaching my sys-
tenn. AS to the impudence OF changing the
| title of my system, l Will say nothing
any man of proper feeling will easily understand
the reason OF my silence here. But the citizens OF
! Louisville, Cincinnati, GAINESVILLE, and other places
where the same kind OF imposition may be tired by
the same Individuals Ia Doctor HardInge and this
Professor Branch or any other Of the same stamp,
are respectfully requested to notice his concluding
advice, ii they have any desire TO know any thing
otmy system, namely: that 1t cannot possibly be
! ,l,. tn lult
of my copyrighted principles, containing about 81
octave pages giren by the lecturer to each men,
| Der of class las | have bound myself TO do in my
own teachugS), and which can be obtained from me
until sec fit to do otherwise, only by the gentle
men whom have already duly accredited TO teach
| the system.
Query: Are these 1cortly and learned Professors
| and Doctors fulfilling this bona tida condition with
their pupils? Or have they, in addition 10 their I'M
position &c. upon the public, already counterleled
my copyrighted principles
~ BY copying this letter, and announcing that
f,co of my accredited pupils will soon visit those
cities and teach my system in proper manner, the
papers of Louisville, Cincinnati and GAINESVILLE will
save their readers from imposition and greatly obge
their obedient servant, Frs FAuvEL-GoURAUD.
Economy II FUEL.-Probably not twenty-fv
per cent of the coal consumed in dwellings and
stores of our city contributes to the warmth
fort of the apartments in which the coal is consumed.
Its quite certain that in the ordinary CRATES than
one half the heat escapes through the chmneys and
| instead of the rooms being comfortably and equally
warmed, one is obliged in cold weather to sit near
TO the fire that the face burns while the back is in
! temperature somw here the freezing point I'm
til quite recently the Furnaces constructed for heat
ing dwellings were very defective, and in many in
; stances they were abandoned by those who had in
troduced them into their houses. We witnessed,
however, in Philadelphia during the past winter,
several dwelling houses heated by Furnaces con-
structed upon different, principle from those here
toore in use, and we became satisfied that it would
not be long before this valuable improvement would
! be almost universally adopted. We are happy now
in being able TO state that Furnaces constructed on
somewhat similar principle to those first introduced
into Philadelphia under the direction of Franklin
Peale, Esq, of that City, are now introduced and
put up in this City under the supervision Of Mr.. E.
L. MILLER, of SO Clark-street, Brooklyn The great
merit of MIR. Mlers improvement appears to be in
the greater effect and consequent economy Of fuel
und in the pure and summertime character Of the
air. and the with which the temperature of the
house is regulated and controlled
SHIrwREcK.-The Norfolk Herald says that
! the schooner Maria, Summers, master, from Ellz-
abeth City, bound to New ork, sprung leak on
| Thursday, 2lst inst, off Chickamco, aud was
compelled to run ashore, Crew saved, except the
captain, who was drowned Vessel and cargo
total loss, The cargo was insured.
