A prominent medical journal says
that the last census reveals the en-
couraging fact that the proportion of
the blind to the population has de-
creased with each successive enumer-
atoms since 1851, in which year an
account of them was taken for
the first time. The decrease in
the decade ending in 1881 was
much greater than in either
of the preceding decreased intervals,
the number of cases returned on this
latter occasion being 1882, equal to
one blind person in every 1,l3S. This
decrease is fairly attributable to the
progressive Improvement in the sur
gical treatment of affections of the
eye, and to the diminished prevalence
among children of smallpox.

The thirteenth annual Report of
the United States Commissioner of
Education is an exceedingly valuable
document. 1t is a volume of eleven
hundred pages and covers the year
1883.
From the Report it appears that
with total school population of over
$4,000, 900, more than 10000, 900
children were enrolled in public
schools, and over 100000 were in
average daily attendance, under
about $4,000 teachers, the whole
cost of this immense system amount
ing to over $9l, 100000. More than
half the number of teachers are wo-
men, and the proportion of women to
men in this field continues to in
crease.
