nevertheless that grace and health are

This school, like the others yis;te :, wore
the aspect Of contentment, or rather
happiness which was sufficiently strong
tribute TO the parental supervision OF the
respective principals. No time was given OF
course TO form opinion ON the proficiency
|ofthe pupils In any Of their studies except
In music In that the superior merit OF

was madeto the Asylum for the Deaf
Dumb 4 Blind for the colored andsr the
superintendent or James III. Harris. The
advance Of the deaf and dunb In chiro~
graphy. which was remarkable, was the
only specimen of proficiency which the
shortness Of tine permitted. Anew songs
from the blind pupils made pleasing Inn
pressions. The ear and voice 81 the AZ
rican, naturally attuned to music, were
here softened and regulated by culture,
aud the deprivation ofso important sense
as sight seemed 10 lend certain degree Of
pathos to the tones Of the singers which
made the singing rather touching.
DEAF DUMB 4 BLIND ASYLUM.
Nine o'clock brought the party, now
pretty well surfeited With sounds, sights,
&c TO the Asylum for white patients. The
usual reception speeches, and replies were
made and theil exhibitions given, Of the
proficiency both Of the Deaf a Dumb and
Of the Blind. So many Of our readers have
Witnessed all these, that we will not repeat
what we saw, only adding our testimony
To the evident excellent management Of
the institution ard the fidelity Zeal and
excellency or the management.
