Mr.. w. E. Forster, M. P, says:
"In dealing with the education of girls
in the training colleges it has been found
that they require little driving to work
compared with boys, and thus they are
more susceptible to influences of ambi-
ton and q desire to succeed. The dam
ger in the training colleges for element

is nc fear that young women will not

"A statement recently made in re-
gard to college and theological endow-
mcnts gives some interesting facts. The
Union Theological Seminary of New
York has 100000 in buildings and
grounds, $750,000 in invested funds and
an income of $4,000 q year. The The
illogical Seminary at Princeton has
$925.000 in property and ar income of
$4,000 q year. Lane Seminary, at
Walnut Hills near Chicago, reports
S16O, 900 in buildings and grounds and
$230,0O0 in productive funds which yield
an income of $l6, 900 a gear. The pri-
vate donations to colleges in four years
amounted to SIG, $4,000, and the gifts
to theological Institutions during the

which amount went to Presbyterian in

The Medical Committee, which re

of confinement and mental effort should
be shortened. Children in primary

THE SILENT PUPILS.
Closing Exercises at the Tennessee
SchOOI for the Deaf and Dumb.

Closing Exercises at the Aenhessee
School for the Deaf and Dumb.
The examinations and closings exer-
cises for the year just ended, occurred
yesterday morning at the Tennessee
School for the Deaf and Dumb in this
city, and were witnessed by number
of deeply interested spectators, who
were entertained in a highly pleasing
manner.
A striking feature of the examina-
tions was the examination by Mr..
Uranium, of a large class of Begin
ners, girls and boys, some very small
children among them, and all OF
whom have just been in the institu%
ton since October last. It was truly
remarkable just to note the progress
made by the little fellows, and WITH
what precision they put their lessons
down on the board.
Another was the exercises of a class
of fine boys, from the most advanced
class in articulation and lip reading,
conducted by Prof. J. H. Ijams, Prin-
ciual of the Institution. This is new
feature introduced by Prof. Ijams, and
of very great importance. It is very
difficult to teach, bat, although he has
been training this class only few
weeks, some of them are beginning to
articulate very well indeed, and they
can catch the words from the move
ments of the lips with very creditable
correctness.
The other grades in the school,
taught, by Misses Hill and Clark, Mr..
Houghton, Prof d. G. Hommel and
Prof. Thos. l.. Moses, were taken
through with their exercises in
very satisfactory manner, evinc-
ing a much higher degree Of pre-
| ficiency in the various branches
than one would dream of these silent
and interesting pupils attaining, I'M
less they had the privilege of witness
| ing their examinations, and they were
| a very clear demonstration of the ex-
cellent management of this State in
stitution, under the Presidency of
Prof. Ijams and his efficient corps of
instructors, and guardians Of these I'M
fortunate children of fate. The build
ings, both inside and out, and all the
surroundings, presented a wonderfully
neat, tidy and well kept appearance,
and the visitor was peculiarly struck
| Herewith.
The year just closed has been en-
phatically successful year
at this institution. There were
los pupils in attendance at the
close, from various portions Of the
State, a larger attendance than the
year before. 1t gives US great pleasure
to note the continued signs OF progress
and gradually increasing attendance
upon this institution year after year.
There are still, however, a great many
deaf and dumb children throughout
the State who ought to have the bene-
fits offered here, and if their parents,
guardians, etc., were only made to
realize the advantages presented, they
could certainly no longer keep their
afflicted children away and raise them
up in idlen ess. Most of the pupils go
to Middle and West Tennessee. and
they will be taken to their homes
| Monday morning.
