French Class for Conversation 81 Reading,
JTIH be opened on Tuesday, te l4h inst at p.
TIVE OBJECT OF THIS CLASS is to aid in
l. every possible way those persons in Washing
ton who desire to acquire accurate knowledge
Of French, and to learn not only TO read, but 70
speak the language fuently. Most persons in the
United States acquire their knowledge through the
eye alone, and hence the number of individuals
here who read tolerably we'll, but do not compre-
bend word of French when spoken, or even when
read, by another. To such persons such Class
promises very great advantages.
The members will meet Mt the rooms of Profess
sor ID. f. GRoux, native Of France, who will di-
rect and supcrintcnd the exercises, opposite
Browns Hotel, where tickets may be had.

taken in this city for years, but their cost
has denied them anything like general circula-
ton. Their value, however, 10 fully appreciated
by the whole profession, who, we have no doubt,
will hasten to avail themselves OF the opportunity
of possessing themselves of the republication of
Messrs Little & Brown, which can be had at less
than fifth the expense of the original works.
From the Boston Courier.
The enterprsing publishers have here presented
to the legal profession, we judge, long felt
desderatun-n prompt, cheap, and comprehensive
series of reports Of all the decisions Of all the Eng
lish courts. The series commences with the cases
of the November term, 1850; and we observe in the
first number decisions pronounced in Westminster
Hall on the 30th January, 1851. This is unparal-
leled despatch in the history Of legal reporting.
Westminster Is here brought two years nearer to
US than our own court house. The style in which
the work ia issued reflects great credit upon the
publishers, editors, and all connected with il.
The page Ia large, fair white, and readable. The
table Of casea and index seem 10 be prepared with
much care and diligence. The former strikes US as
executed on livery useful plan, referring not only
to the case and page of the volume, but containing
also short abstract Of the subject of each case.
The editors notes scattered through the volume,
referring 10 American decisions, and still more 10
the value Of the work. The publication 10 TO be
continued in monthly parts or numbers, making
each year six large octave volumes, for the remark
ably low pricoof 8 10 per annum. We trust both
editors and publishers will receive ample remuner-
alton for the slrvice they here doing the legal
profession.
Such publication, we think, cannot fail to be
useful to the profession and profitable to the pub
lishers.-P philadelphia Legal Intelligencer.

IL ing crossed Nicaragua, route from Cali.
fornia 10 New York, under the impression and
solemn assurance Of the agents of the line that II
quicker and more desirable than that by Pa
mama; and having found il entirely different
having suffered great deception, loss, and expo
sure, we deem il a duty TO the public 10 make
known the facts. The steamer Independence, in
which we left San Francisco, brought down more
than double the number of passengers she could
accommodate, and more than double the number
the agent represented as having taken passage on
her. The boat, too, 10 an unit and unsafe sea-
boat. The consequence was, that our passage to
San Juan del Sud was one of great danger and SUI
fering.
We confidently expected, on arriving at San Ju-
del Sud. to be provided with transportation for
ourselves and baggage Immediately, we had
been led TO believe that the transit would not re
quire more than forty eight hours. We found,
however, that the agent had not provided animals,
and could not procure them go that, after remain
ing two days, many OF the passengers set oil on
foot under the assurance that their baggage would
be forwarded TO them, and that the steamer would
not leave Panama without it, We found the road
TO Lake Nicaragua nearly impractcable, and the
distance instead of being twelve miles, many OF
us had to travel thirty. The boats the lake and
river very small and unfit for passengers, and,
although packed like slave ships, could not take
half of the passengers. We were without food, and
exposed to violent rains. On the seventh day we
reached San Juan del Norte, and forced 10
come away at once in the Prometheus. Not moro
than one half the passengers of the independence
have been able to get through; the remainder,
some two hundred, being left the route with the
specie, and nearly all the baggage. We were most
unciviy received and mserably provided for ON
board the Prometheus. In consequence, we LETT
her at Havana, and by the kindness of Captain
Schenck we were received on board the Ohio
1t is not necessary to give detailed account OF
the annoyances TO which we have been subjected
by the misrepresentation and insoenCe of agents,
the want of food and room, the loss of baggage
and unexpected delay; it is enough to express our
conviction that under the present management,
and in the present condition of tho rUa1is aud the
present means of transportation, the Panama route
is preferable to that by Nicaragua
In conclusion, we beg to return our thanks TO
Captain Schenck, of the steamship Ohio, for the
courteous treatment we have received from him
during our boisterous passage, and particularly
for receiving us on board, as it was contrary, we
informed to his instructions to receive passen-
gers from the opposition line.

been the object OF the publisher TO take the lead
among the popular Magazines of this country; and
the host of imitators, who have been constantly
following-'toing after him in vain"-are suffi-
Gent to attest his brilliant success. The prompt
ness with which every new idea that he suggests is
adopted by others, is sufficient reason for HE not
