EDUCATION OF THE BLIND.

II will be seen by ference TO an advertise
meni in our columns to-day, of the Trustees
for sustaining the blind of this State, capa-
BILE of education, at the Institutions for the
blind in the States of Ohio or Kentucky.
that liberal and ample provision has been
made by the Legislature of our State on this
subject; and the only maIIer 10 be apprehen-
ded is, that all those who are blessed with
sight and who may even notice the advertise
ment, and learn thus the facility with which
our blind may be educated, will not person
ally intetest themselves in searching out the
unfortunate blind of their vicinity, and hav-
ing applications made without delay 10 the
Trustees for their instruction.
The State Journal says:
We have no doubt the Editors of papers in
the State will cordially do their part towards
awakening public attention TO the subject;
but does it not devolve on Ministers of the
Gospel, Gentlemen of the Bar, Merchants.
County officers, and all men TO take person
al interest in carrying out the benevolen, de-
signs OF the Legislature?
Letit be known then, that provision has
been made by revenue, most, cheerfully paid
by The people, for the instruction of the blind
ofthis State, capable of receiving an educa-
ton, (where friends are unable 10 paw for
them,) ''for the cultivation of their intellects
for the training of their moral natures, and
for impartng TO them trades, which will en-.
able them to gain livelihood by honest and
independent industry; that those blind chill
dren, who have hitherto been dependent anc
helpless burdens upon their friends, will be
sustained by the Stale at Institutions in the
adjoining Sthes in successful operation, whert
their wants are provided for, their peculiar
privalions meets with appropriate care, where
in sickness they are tenderly nursed, and il

INDIANA BONDS.

The bonds OF Indiana are now rated at 40
cents to the dollars in New York. The New
York Morning News, in view of this fact,
makes The following calculation as 10 the
profits of an investment in Indiana bonds:
A great feature of the markets is the revvng
credits the States. Illinois promptly paid
the | / mill lax levied in cash to commerce
payments on an account Of the State interest
in July, 1916. The State of Indiana has
passed similar law, aud lis bonds at present
prices offer the best investment; that is 10 say,
for 1920 bond may be purchased having
$500 bank interest to January, lS47, max
ing together $1,000. In 1916 he will re-
ceive from the State S25 interest, which on
his outlay of $3.50 is 8 per cent. per annum.
He has also demand upon the canal reve-
nues for similar sum. If the canal yields
no revenue up to 1853, he then will have
stock for 81 300, with the arrearage of six
instruments of $25 each, making S $50 add
ed, being 81 $50, on which thereafter he
gets 5 per cent per amum, or S72 per an
mum, or l7a per cent. for his outlay; or he
will, after getting 6 per cent. for his money,
receive at the end of six years $i,450 for
1920 expended.
