colt of Ellsworth.
Those who attended this excellent meet
ing were happy under difficulties. Pres.
Hall pleasantly remarked, There is music
in the air" and his remark was truth itself,
truth. There was evidently good deal in
the air besides music. To be exact a dane
ing school was in full blast in the hall direct
ly above us.

p. Lombard, II. A. Trip, Mr.. Ames and
A. H. Gem. OF these addresses, which
were listened to with the closest attention,
your correspondent can only find space to
say that Mr.. Crabtree made gallant charge
on tobseco users; but he was temporarily
repulsed by Mr.. Trip who .'went after him
with sharp stick" Mr.. Crabtree fell back
in good order, and, confident of final victory
is eager to renew the combat at the earliest
moment possible.
SUNDAY EVENING SESSION.
At this session the choir sung an open
ing ode, and prayer was offered by DIR. Geo.

The Deaf Hear and the Dumb Speak.

he Deal near ana the DumD opeaE.
The Kennebec Journal Of Friday saws
The audience that gathered in Representa-
tiyes' Hall. last evening, filling every inch Of
available space, were enthusiastic over the
exhibition given by Miss Ellen l.. Barton,
who is at the head of the Portland School
for deaf mutes, an institution which has
been in operation but few years, but which
has produced astonishing results. Presi-
dent Locke Of the Senate, called the audi
ence to order, and alluded to the interest
the State had taken in the education Of the
unfortunate deaf and dumb. There are two
methods of teaching-one by signs, and the
other BY articulation. The latter is the sys-
TEN pursued in this school. He introduced
the Rev. DIR. Hill, who, in an interesting
manner. spoke of the necessity of language
for social and business life, and the great
difficulty in imparting instruction to deaf
mutes, their deprivation being greater than
that of the blind. The great advantage of
the articulation system, he said, was that
the pupils instructed by it could converse
freely not only with their own class, but it
gave them direct communication with the
outside world. Miss Barton then took the
stand, and with the help Of six of her pupils
from the age of SIX years and upwards, gave
a demonstration of the wonderful success of
her system. The pupils were quite as quick
to grasp her meaning from the movement of
her lips, either in whisper or in uttered
word, as though they had heard the words
and sentences distinctly. Orders given
were promptly obeyed, problems solved as
rapidly as they were thrown out, and the
entire exhibition was gratifying, and truly
wonderful as showing the possibilities of
imparting knowledge to those whose ears
are sealed to all the sounds and sweet melo-
dies of the world, and from whose lips no
uttered word ever escapes. Miss Barton is
such charming teacher. that the depriva-
ton necessary to become pupils in her school
could be endured for the sake of receiving
instruction from such a source.
