Direct Communication with

France.
TNHE commercial intercourse to be estab-
Il lished between the Port of Norfolk and
the coast of France, renders an acquaintance
with the language of that country, not only
necessity for those whose business may be
thus directed, but enhances its value as 60
cial accomplishment both to Ladies and Cen
tlemen. The undersigned having possessed
peculiar facilities in qualifying himself for
that capacity, respectfully offers his services
to the Ladies and Gentlemen of Norfolk and
Portsmouth rs French Precepter; to the
Ladies at their residences--to Gentlemen at
his Office at Mrs. Frseman's Boarding house
No. 50, L. Main street.
Schools attended both for classes Of French
and Book Keeping on moder tie terms.
Merchants and others requiring temporary
assistance in arranging their books, making
up accounts &c, will do well to apply to him
before his time is fully occupied. A thorough
knowledge of the French and sufficient ac-
quaintance with the German and Spanish
languages to keep mercantile accounts in
them if required, may render his services
useful to those engaged in the foreign CONT
mental trade.
