OUR FOREIGN POLICY.

The President in his late annual mes

OHIO in his resolutions introduced into the
Senate Of the United States on the IA inst,
have announced it, as the seu LED policy
OF the United States, TO enforce the prin
clple-that any effort Of The Polkers o.

stated that such had been The policy OF
this nation since Mr.. Monroe's ceebr ated
declaration on the same subject, in his an
nual message Of 1923.
Now whatever may be the future poll.
cy OF this Government, the assertion OF
Senator Allen as 10 its past policy is not
true.-Most of US cannot fail to reco lect
the discussion, in both houses Of Congress
in The session Of 1926, '26, ard through

"Pdnanld MiSSion;" and the decided op-

TEACHING THE DUMB TO SPEAK.

i we learn from letter oil Eu rOpedr
Correspondent Of the Boston Daily ad
vertiser, dated Berlin Aug. Goth, l845
that there is in that city an Institution lo
teaching the Deaf and Dumb TO speak
The writer visited the institution, and wit
messed the process of instruction, and It's
effects upon pupils of different deg rees oil
intellect. He says, "it certainly is true,
that the dumb do speak-do read distinct
| Iy, with emphasis and accent, and with
some discrimination in articula!ing."
This success in conquering the defects OF
nature is wonderful triumph Of the hu
man intellect. The infrmity of the deaf
and dumb does not, it is said, arise from
any effectiveness Of the organs Of speech.
but Of arrangement of he apparatus for
hearing, in consequence Of which they
have no means of acquiring the idea Of
sound After some remarks upon the
different capacities Of the pupils to receive
instruction, and that the "born deaf and
dumb had the greatest difficulty in ac-
curing the art OF speaking, while those
who had ever had any perception Of
sound, were taught with greater facility
and success" the writer proceeds to speak
as follows Of the mode Of instruction: -
Orthopolitan.
The faculty is acquired by sight, and
the eye is made 10 do the office of the ear.
The pupil initiates the teacher in moving
the organs of speech, and thus comes TO
utter the same sounds. He observes the
motions Of his teacher in pronouncing a
word, the meaning ofwhich he has before
learned, and thus tells by his eye what
the teacher has said. The process is long,
tedious and disagreeable, and in lis first
attempts painful to an observer. The
teacher, to pronounce distinctly to the eye,
is obliged TO make grimace--the pupil
in his attempts at Limitation, and in his ef-
forts to produce sound, distorts his fea-
lures to distressing degtee, and so lar
as saw, never entirely loses this unnat- :
lTal arrangement. The voice too, thus
by sort Of spasm, has mostly
IN unearthly sound, more like that OF
speaking automaton than human being,

There were exhibited some astonishing n
esults which may be considered to con. /
radlct this opinion. ,--One pupil held
conversation with the in a
