a degiee of prosperity at this season of the year, unprecedented by any similar period since its establishment in
our city. If proof of its real merit and usefulness were
needed, the increasing and continued demand by business
men, for its graduates and students, to take charge of
their books, would be most convincing and positive evidence. For those wishing to acquaint themselves with
