interested In the success of benevolent enterprise,
to the Fair advertised to be held in the Mechani-
cal Department of the Institution for the Deaf

the system of quilting become, that would be
disposed to refrain from notice of this kind.
were it not obviously subject that commends it.
sell, when fairly presented, to the judgment and
feelings of all intelligent and benevolent persons
understand the objects Of the intended exhi
bitlon to be, topresent to the public satisfactory
proof ofthe industry and skill which the pupils of
the Institution have attained to- within the short
period, during which the Mechanical Department
has been in operation, and by sale of the fruits
o. their abors to enable the public to reward them
Tor their past efforts and encourage them to SINH
lar exertions in future. doubt not that the sub
s!antial and ornamental work which will be exbi-
bited will not only disabuse the public mind of
any ignorant prejudices to the capabilities and
usefulness of this class Of persons, but as.onish
the most sangune with result seldom effected by
those who possess the advantages of an additional
sense and free communication with the world a.
round them.
1t is to be hoped therefore that this Institution,
which reflects in its present success so much cred
it this community and the State, and so dear to
the religious and benevolent portions of society,
will be smiled upon and sustained in these early
efforts to meet the expectations pitts friends.
