In 1855 the Home was removed to the corner

which time the number OF inmates seeking
It's benefits has been steadily increasing. Tho
inmates, II they desire, are educatsd-tsught
bookkeeping, phonography, and telesraphing-I
and many have availed themselves OF the oppor-
tunities; been instructed In these branches, pro-
curing excellent situations, without thorough
knowledge Of the same. Soldiers and sailors
como from every State In the Union to enjoy the
advantages and comforts Of the Homo, an hon.
