DRAWING CLASSES.

(To the Editor of the Evenhuj Star.) Siu,—Will you allow me through your valuable paper, to express my surprise at the delay that has taken place in “making arrangements for opening a drawing class for artisans,” and to urge upon those whose duty it is to arrange such matters, the necessity for opening this most important class at once, because literary and mutual improvement societies (not to mention those of a lighter an I more exciting nature) are forming in all parts of the City, whose nights of meeting will, in all probability, inteifere with the class I wish to see established, and thereby many a good student will be lost, endanger* ing the success of the whole movement; for, sir, I take this to be but the first step in a new direction for the working men of Dime* din. I have great expectations of what is to be done this winter by the formation of classes, say in mathematics, chemistry, political economy, &c. I have not the slightest doubt but if the Athenanun Committee were to begin any of the classes I have named, under able teachers, that they would be successful in a high degree. Hoping this may have the desired effect, I am, &c. Work.
