CIVIL ENGINEERING

Will be thoroughly and practically taught in
the Western Military Institute--the Professor,
Col. Morgan, being one Of the moss skillful and
experienced Engineers in the United States. All
the Instruments connected with that department
have been procured al considerable COST and Of the
best quality.
The Superintendent takes the liberty Of stating
that he is new offered $15 per month, for COM
petent assistant Engineers One of his former
pupils receives at this time, s., sou per annum,
Principal Engineer of railroad now under
struction in Kentucky-whilst others Of the same
class receiving in different parts Of the United
States, $4,000, IS 500, or s ,200 year as As
sistant Engineers.
The time is rapidly approaching when there
will be great demand for such as have been pre-
pared, for that vocation, at the Western Military
institute. Nothing is hazarded in saying that
they will readily command SS 200 or Sl 500 per
annum. Every man of observation must see that
the gigantic enterprises alre ady proposed will give
birth to hundreds of others, tributary to them.
The rapid advancement OF our whole country. and
The eagerness of people for exploring the hid
den resources of the new States and the newly
acquired territory, will give ample scope for ages
to come, to the skill and enterprise of the Eng-
neer, the Geclogst, the Mineraiogst, the Surveyor
and the Architect Young men who have an
aptitude for the Mathematical and Physical sci
ences, will have wide field opened to them for
engaging in an honorable, hea!thful and a ucra-

LEGIsLATING IN ALBANY-SRcURiTY OF THE
HoMEs1EAD.-We see that attempts are being made
by the Legislature at Albany, to pass a law Sc.
curing what is called the homestead against all
debts of the proprietor, thus introducing species
of entailment Of landed property, to a certain
extent, IN our code Of legislation.
great deal of CANNON on the subject is uttered
by certain politicians, which Is well calculated to
catch popular applause, under the idea of esislat.
ing for the benefit of the poor. The monstrsus
anomaly which has oppressed England so long
the entailment Of landed property on worthless
Propnetors--was originally introduced among tn.
barbarous nations of Europe, under similar plea
OF humanity and kindness. If any person. bv
Divine Providence or idleness, becomes poor.
what Is the reas that his landed property as we'll
as his personal, should not be liable for his debts
II the principe of securing farm or homes ad
be established or be right, it ought to be extended
to personal property well; and If it is good for
fifty or a hundred acres, why not to the amount of
thousand
This mode of legislating, Is the offspring Of
those miserable demagogues with which both
parties In this country are cursed, and with which
they will continue to be cursed, until the public
mind becomes enlightened by the universal pr,n.
ciples OF justice and integrity.
