EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.,
SPRINGFIELD, July II, 1855.
Messrs Bryant. StrattOn y Co., Chicago, ILL.,:
GExTLEMEN-Your letter OF invitation
dated July 9Th, was handed me yesterday
had hoped to be IN Chicago this week, and
desired, If SO, 10 visit your convention Of
proprietors and teachers of the "lnterna-
iional Chain Of Business Colleges," now in
session in that city. 1t seems now that l
al,all hardly be permitted to do 80 regret
il. rs shall be deprived Of attending and
studying to some extent the plan and system
of education adopted by your Association
for cultivating the useful branches of com.
mcrcial industry. ltis almost impossible for
adventures in commercial pursuits to sue
coed without clearer preparatory theOrcti
cal education, united 10 such practical knOwl-
edge a. only long experience, in the absence
II education can give. My understanding
| is that you propose to combine and sup
DIV this knowledge by your excellent system
Of regulated and technical education.
There are now returning to this State
thousands Of young and only partially edu
Gated soldiers, many Of them without trades,
professions, capital or employment II
would be most opportune il those who are
thus situated could have their attention di.
rcctcd to your colleges and some suitable en-
enlargement given TO them to cndcavor to
gain the benefits thus held out them.
Wishing you, gentlemen, satisfactory sue
cess in your noble pursuit, remain, very
respectfully yours, X. J. OGLEsBY.
