Commercial School
The undersigned, pupils of Jonathan Jones, believing a more
general knowledge of his peculiar mode of instruction would
be of public utility, and enable every young man of good bus
siness habits to realize the importance of taking a thorough
course of Double-Entry Book-Keeping in this Academy, before
entering upon a business career, take this method of informing
those who may not be acquainted with the design of this school,
and wish to acquire a practical knowledge of accounts, that
the plan of instruction adopted, differs materially from that or-
dinarily used in schools and colleges. Instead of memorizing
a set of arbitrary rules and studying long dissertations upon the
theory, of Book-Keeping, the young gentleman is at once intro-
duced to the practical discharge of the accountant’s duties, by
transcribing his day book, journalizing, posting, taking his
monthly trials, &c. Thus he proceeds, as though he were in
charge of a set of books in an extensive establishment.
“Year after year, (in epitomized forms,) he continues the opening, conducting
and closing of Books, under every variety of circumstance that can possibly
occur; he beholds himself a merchant with limited resources, though driving a
successful trade; laying his plans deep, he enters into numerous speculations,
but finally encounters extensive losses and is foreclosed with heavy insolvency;
he then becomes associated with a capitalist in business, and resumes his accus-
tomed duties as an accountant.”
In conclusion, permit us to state that a great number of Mr.
Jones’ pupils is in charge of books, in responsible stations, as
practical accountants in this city, with whom many of us are
personally acquaintod. From the manner in which they dis-
charge their duties as practical and accomplished Book-Keepers
and from what we know ourselves, we do most unequivocally
declare it as our opinion, that as thorough and as perfect a
knowledge of the accountant’s duties can be obtained in this
srhool, as it is possible to receive in any counting-house in any
number of years, the operations being the same to all intents
and purposes. For further particulars apply to us in person.

Our work is now before you, and for the kind support we have re-
ceived from the public generally, we tender our sincere thanks. We
have endeavored, so far as possible, to obtain the name of every male
citizen of
believe we have fulfilled (he intention of our work. To be as accurate
as possible, (we have spared no trouble, and to make our work profitable
and neat, we have spared no pains or expense. It is more than possible
that, on account of frequent changes of residences, we have failed in ob-
taining the names of a few, for which we will not be blamed when the
manner in which we canvassed the city is known—commencing at one
end of the city and working immediately through, so that persons moving
to any portion of the city canvassed, would of course be missed.
We have made arrangements to continue publishing the City Directory
yearly; and as this is our first attempt, we hope its imperfections may
be, as much as possible, overlooked, as it is our intention to make the
second edition without a fault. With these few prefatory remarks, we
submit our work to its kind patrons.
