CONSERVATION among the Rebels-Reported
Dissatisfaction with Gov. Stanley.

CONSERVATION among the Rebels-Reported
Dissatisfaction with Gov. Stanley.
NEwBERN, N. e. Jan. 81.
Newspapers from the interior indicate that
the rebels are greatly exercised about the con-
centration OF military and naval forces in this
department, and are much mystiiled as to its
objects.
Refugees, who haSe recently arrived, state
that notwithstanding their plucky demonstra-
tons the rebels are nearly disheartened, and
frequently confess their inability TO hold out
much longer without foreign intervention.
Recent experiments with new submarine
torpedoes have proved entirely successful.
The President is TO be memorialized for the
removal of Gov. Stanley, and for the abolition
of the office, which is regarded here worse
than useless, as ii is made the warrant of arbi-
trary power totally incompatible with repub-
lican liberty and the rights of citizens.
Jan. Prov. Stanley will sooE leave this
department. His mission here is a complete
failure, and his course has made the Office so
odous TO the army and navy and Union citi-
zens that no one could accepiably hold it here
after. Gen. Foster says Military Governor
is no longer military necessity in his depart
ment.

PORTLAND COMMERCIAL CoLLEaE-I

PORTLAND COMMERCIAL CoLLEGE.-It
will be seen, by reference to their advertise
ment in another column, that Messrs. Bryant,
Stratton & Co. will open school in Clapp's
block, on Monday, the I'd February, Tor in
struction in bookkeeping commercial law,
commercial arithmetic, &c. This enterprise
is assuming national dimentions. chain OF
commercial colleges extends along the great
highways Of business from Maine to Missouri.
st. Louis, Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Buff
falo, Albany, New York in each of these
cities exists au institution, complete in itself,
but under the care of Mr.. Bryant as general
business manager and of Mr.. Stratton gen.
eral superintendent of the educational depart
ment.
The first college was established at Cleve-
land, in 1853. Those in the cities just men,
toned were all in operation early in 1860.
There are others in Philadelphia, Troy, and
Brooklyn. BY the purchase of a scholarship in
any one Of these colleges, the Holder becomes
entitled to instruction in any other. Wher-
ever business may call him, in any one Of ten
commercial cities, he may continue his studies
without interruption and enjoy the benefit of
a valuable business acquaintance already
formed.
The instruction Is practical. Bookkeeping,
for example, is tanglt by putting into the
hands of the student full set OF books, which
he is required to keep from imaginary trans
actions, either dictated or represented. Blu
siness correspondence is taught iu the same
way. There is no general class system. Stu
dents entering at any time are taught sepa-
rately. Lectures are also delivered on COM
mercial law, political economy, duties of clerks
and employers, and other topics Of general
interest. The Hon. j. Ii. Drummond, attor-
ney general for the state of Maine, will lecture
on commercial law before the Portland Col
lege.
The text books used by Messrs. Bryant g.
Stratton are prepared expressly for their co.
leges. These comprise Bookkeeping, in
three editions, primary, high school and coun-
ting house; Commercial Arithmetic, devoted
chiefly to practical questions; and a treatise
on Commercial Law, from the pen of Amos
Dean, LID, professor of law in the Uni
versity OF Albany.
The scholarships are good for an unlimited
period, and the student is free to review his
studies at any time, or in any brancl. OF the
positive value Of systematic mercantile in-
struction, it is unnecessary to say single
word.
