TIE WRITING CLAss.-The superiori-
u of IA system and rules, as method of
teaching pcEmanship, over the common
method, will be apparent TO any one who
will visit the writing class at the Semi
nary, conducted by Prof l. c. Mulkins.
The Prof. is an expert in the art. He
has form and idealiiy developed to- the
very highest extent, and il is not too much
20 ,av that he would make an admirable
pcrc.an without rules; but the propriety
of a ,ys'em TO impart the instruction 10
others is so obvious that it needs no adj
voca,e at this day.
\ visit last evening at the Seminary
convinces us that Mr.. Mulkins fully I'M
derstands his business, and that the
scholar who attends one term, and will
give heed TO the instructions given, viii
acquire n more thorough knowledge of
this desirable art, during that term, with
Thu mode of instruction, than he would
in two years with the ordinary method.
There is "a class of thirty, and 50 well
drilled are they in the one ierm,- that s.:
! the move of the finger you can hear a pin
drop.-perfect order and concert of action
in the exercises have been secured as the
, result of the laSors of this master chiro-
graplier and teacher. 1t will pay any one
II attend Tor q term. The present term
closes tomorrow evening, and another
viii commence the next Tuesday follow
/ ing, and as this may be the last orportun-
! ity to have the benefit of the Professor
knowledge of the art, every one that can
ought to avail themselves of the privIle &c
while the opportunity offers.

obtain to-day.

We also are inforaed that Jefferson and

Suicide.

The residents in the vicinity of Terre
Coupee were grievcd and astounded to
hear that Mrs. Vail, a sister-in-law of Lot
Vail, Esq, committed suicide on the 4th,
inst, by hanging. The deceased was aged
about nfty-four years and was a widow,
having lost her husband when she was
quite young woman. For the past
twenty-threc years she had resided with
her brotherin- law, and was greatly below
ed and respected in the neighborhood
where she was known. Some years ago
she was insane short time after the death
of an only daughter, but had never before
made any attempt upon her life OF late
she had been in i'll health and her
friends had Just made preparations to take
her to Eaton Rapids Springs, in hopes of
improving her condition. Her funer al

that the road would be built. and that
Marmont would probably be selected as a
point on the line of the road.
