~We copy the following notice OF
Behufs College, in this city, from the Can

Melton Reporter of the Esd of January:
The advertisement of the Evansville Com
mercial College will be found in another col
umn of the Reporter. Mr.. Benin, the ac-
complished principal, has by his untiring de-
votion to the interests of those who have at
tended his school, given to it an enviable
reputation wherever it is known. We have
conversed with those who have attended this
College, from whom we learn that it is in
every particular all that can be desired; some
of the best accountants in Evansville have
graduated at it. The course of instruction in
the science Of accounts, is practical and
thorough, and the law lectures that aredeliv-
cred during the session are alone worth the
tuition charged.
If any of our young men wish to acquire q
thorough knowledge of Book Keeping and
Mercantile Law we most cordially recon-
mend this school to them.

it should be communicated to that body,
