PEN MAN SHIP.


FROM HIS ACADEMY IN NEW ORLEANS.
Respectfully informs the Ladies and Gentle
men of Nashville, that he viii give lessons on
WeR TING.
AT THE SALOON OF
VESSEL & THOMPSON, AZ Union St.
In a few lessons Ladies are taught to write
in a neat, easy and rapid manner, and Gentle
men in a bold, rapid, business style.
Hours from to IL, a. NJ, and from 2 to 4,
P. NJ, AID from to 9 at night
Persons from the country can finish their
lessons in one week.
As Mr.. d. will not have time to call on fam
lies be hopes that all who desire to join his
classes will make early application.
To persons acquainted with its merits, his
system of writing needs no recommendation,
but those unaCquainted with 1t, Mr.. ID. refers
to the following kmarks and testimonials. In
stead of teaching Penmanship merely as an
imitdtiCe Art, an experience Of twenty years
has enabled him to reduce it to the certainty
Of a Science. 50 that being guided by knol0ledge
instead of random practice, pupils from six to
sixty years of age, can, IN a short time, learn
to write with
Ease, Elegance and Rapidly.
So accurate is his system and so uniform its
success, that after witnessing its effects on sew
eral hundred pupils in this place, the lameDted
Alfred Hume observe, 81 consider it but Justice
to say, that believe it not only the best sys-
tenn but the only one deserving the adme-for
by strict attention to the rules given, any per
son may in short time, acquire free, rapid
and elegant hand"
Such Mr. d. believes will be the opinion of
all who test it's merits, and an experience of
above II years. (nOstly in New Oreans) since
the above opinion was expressed, Mr.. d. hopes
has detracted nothing from the merits of his
system, or his skill in teaching it.
From the r. Rec. Bishop Otey.
COLUMBIA, Tenn, Nov. 90, l843.
Mr. j. w. DoLBEAR-Dear Sir: l have been
much interested and pleased in examining your
system of Penmanship, and so far as | am capa-
BILE of forming an intelligent judgment upon the
subject, give it my hearty approval Your meth
cd of teaching seems to me to be both skiIful and
faithful, and the Improvement of your pupils is sur
prising and rapid beyond any thing have ever wits
messed. l shall feel happy if this testimony to
your merit shall lead others to avail themselves of
your instruction in one Of the most beautiful and
useful arts; and am very respectfully, etc.
