chine can be presented in detail on the field, if
necessary, and any part at once renewed and re-
placed by the aid of the most ordinary opera

would be such joke on Percy"
"How long did you wish me to play
this pretty farce" said Grace, relentinga a
little. In truth, placed before her in the
light of frolic, it began to be tempting.
Fortunately, Mrs Rochester had never
mentioned to Grace her plans for Percy's
total surrender to her charms. A mere
hint of such an idea would have been a
death blow to her present hopes. So now
she gave Grace comical history Of the
scene wherein poor Fred came to grief.
and dwelt upon the capital joke they
could have at his expense. Grace, her
self, dearly loved fun. The end was, that
after coaxing some time, Grace consented
to assume the role planed for her, and
enter upon the reformation of Mr.. Keith's
household for term of three weeks,
stipulating that she should disguise her
self as she pleased, and binding Fanny
over to solemn secrecy forever!
'My brother is in the library, is he
not?" said Mrs. Rochester the next morn
ing, as Soames opened the door in an
swer to her ring.
"No, ma'am; Mr.. Keith went down
town an hour ago, leaving word that he
would be home as early as three. The

Rochester turned toward the library door;

stole glance at the person who accom-

GIVE THE CHILDREN FRESH AIR.
Some parents make the great mistake of
keeping the children indoors during
cold weather. Such practice is
pernicious in many respects. 1t enfeebles
the bodies of children, and renders them
peculiarly liable to colds and coughs. A
child chould have its feet well shod with
socks and boots, its body well wrapped
in warm clothing, its head and ears
securely protected from the cold, and
then be let lose to play in the keen
bracing winter air. By this means its
body will become robust, and It's spirits
be kept bright and cheerful whereas, if
a child be shut up in the house, 1t will
become fretfnl and feverish, and perhaps
wind up with a severe attack of illness.

THE SOLDIERS ORPHANS HOME, SITUATE
AT MADISON. 5aaH
The condition Of this institution was
found to be fully up to the expectations
of the committee. We made very care
full examination Of it in all it's seve al
departments. Its sanitary condition we
found to be excellent, and We think may
be considered extraordinary, when we
take into consideration the number of
children that are here gathered together,
varying in age from five to fifteen years
The average number of children that
have attended the Home duxing the past
year, is two hundred and forty seven, and
the total number belonging to it at the
date of the last report of the superintend-
ent was two-hundred and sixty five
There has been only two deaths during
the past year, and there was little or no
sickness at the time of our visit.
We found the school buildings, and
other repairs and improvements for which
appropriations have heretofore been
made, completed and in good condition.
The intellectual and moral develop
ment of the children appears to be of
high order. We were not able to deter
mine from our short visit, what the intel
lectual progress of those attending school
has actually been, but, judging from the
interest manifested by both teachers and
scholars, we feel justified in saying that
1t has been all that could be desired or
expected and we think the Home will
cimpare favorably with other institutions
OF like character
The current expenses of the last year
have been $35,9514O.
Besides the children maintained. there
are twenty-seven employees, making the
average number of those maintained ct
the Home, two hundred and seventy
four.

mated at the last date above, there will
be deficiency of about $4,000.

thing correct.

DEAF AND DUNE, AT DELAYAN.
One ofthe most interesting institutions
visited was the Deaf and Dumb Institute
at De'avan. Here have been gathered
during the past year, IA unfortunate
children deprived of hearing and speech
This is an increase in attendance over
any former year in the history of the
school, and there are now present 12s
pupils-49 girls, 70 boys. This gratifying
increase In the number of pupils has been
brought about by the energy and tact of
superintendent Stone, in seeking out the
deaf mutes over the state, and making
known to their parents and friends the
advantages afforded them by the Insti-
tute.
When it is understood that in most
cases the mute is brought to the school
absolutely ignorant of language, and
able only toperform some of the simplest
kinds OF labor, and that his deprivation
OF hearing, and consequently Of speech,
renders it necessary % teach him to ex-
press his thoughts and comprehend those
OF other, by signs alone, and after aoma
time by writing, the difficulty to be sur
mounted in educating him can be in a
small measure appreciated, and the nee
essity of securing the most skilled and
faithful instructors will be readily adj.
mitted. The patience and tact required
to give the simplest kind of instruction
to the mute is not uncomfortable, and it
was with pleasure that we noticed that
they were possessed i'll high degree by
the several teachers. The exercises of
the school, exhibiting to your COMMITTEES
the Pronclency OF the pupils in their
severei studies, were very interesting.
