The next we noticed were the children of the Half0phan
Asylum in Eleventh It under the charge Of the Sisters OF
Charity several of whom in their dresses of deep mourn
ing were with them Sister Elizabeth told Us that they had
1872 girls in the Asyum 100 Of whom were with her in the
Palace Although the Institution is Catholic they will
ing to take Protestant children We judge most OF these
are those OF foreigners by their looks but they more
nteig mt booking than the Randall Island children They
were very neatly dressed in soft gray striped cotton froe ks
white pants white aprons pink bingham bonnes shoes and
stockings Ii was quite manifest that they were governed
BY the power love.
The number Of children of the New York Orphan Asy-
um we did not learn but we did notice the blue uniform
dresses Of tic girls set of with white aprons OF peculiar
cut the bands of which, the shoulders had some
what ary look They straw boanets, shoes and

some Of them very interestingly pretty.
But the most int resting School that OF the Leake &
49,
Twelfth st and Tenth av on the BlOomingdae road This
institution wss founded by the beques Of those whose name
il bears II has at present lis boys and IS girls and we
venture 10 assert that that number Of children cannot
be found in any institution in this any other country who
exceed the majority OF these children IN good intelligent
looking faces Some Of the girls sweety beautiful and
their dresses feet the highest credit upon the maron and
her assistants The girls neat calico frocks drlb linen
sacks trimmed with white cord white bonnets with large
capes, white pents grey stockings, and shoes

pantaoons with blue ribbon badgs black velvet caps

We were particularly pleased with the conduct Of one Of
the police officers towards these children and should be
clad to give bis name He took detachments OF them
through his department. explaining the various curoses
We were told that he makes part his business to show
ell the children much he can while they are near him
We do rot know what the pre- requisites OF admission
into this nstuion but We do know that parents need
be sgonizcd the thought leaving their children if they
could be assured Of their going to the Leake and Wax Or
phon Asylum
Public School No ., Henryst, had 672 children OF both
sexes and vorous ages there under the charge of the 'ev
era teacher male and female The most OF these came
over in one Of the BowCry line OF stages
