Deaf Mutes at Foot Eall.


The foot ball team of deaf mutes from
Kendall College, which played game in Bal
timore last Saturday, excited great dea! of
favorable comment. The Young men are not
only we'll developed physically. but their faces
are intelligent and give every evidence Of in
tellec.uality. There ia no sign in their
countenances that they are deprived of one of
their five senses and OF the power Of speech as
a result. The facility with which the members
OF the team communicated with each other,
obeyed orders and played together vas alto
gether marvellous. Kendall College is the only
institution. we believe, i'll the country devoted
TO the higher education of deaf mutes. Ordinary
schools and a3ylums are abundant. but this is
the only one, it is stated. where college degrees
are conferred. 1t is the general belief that the
present success in the education of deaf mutes
is the rcsul. of new methods and aims. Bat such
il not the Gaze.
More than century ago DR.. Samuel john
son visited a school for the instruction of deaf
niutes in Edinburgh. and gave an interesting
account OF what he saw there and winch had
greatly interested him. He spoke of it as "a
college OF the deaf and dumb. who are taught
to speak, to read, to write aud to practice
arithmetic" This was at that time the only
institution of the kind in the world. But DR..
johnson declared that such teaching was not
new, having been first practiced upon the son
of constable of Spain and afterward cult
waited with much enthusiasm in England In
the Edinburgh school. said Dr. johnson, the
pupils not only ''speak. write and understand
what Is written. but ii he that speaks looks to-
ward them and mcdifies his organs by distinct
and full utterarce, they know SO well what is
spoken that 1t is an expression scarcely fguTa-
tive to say they hear with the eye. That any
have attained to the power mentioned by Bur
net, Of feeling sounds by laying hand on the
speakers mouth, know not. bu. l have seen
SO much that / cGn believe more The feeling
OF sounds has been accomplished by some of
the more expert, and consists in interpreting
the movements of the lips by the sense Of

An African Movement Among Georgia Ne
CrOes.


peculiar African craze has been started
among the negroes of Atlanta. This time there
is no agent going abou. among them picking up
dollars by pictures deity painted Of land
overfowing with milk and honey, but we'll
known, responsible negro preachers are advis-
ing their people from the pulpiss to emigrate TO
Africa. The cause of this new and more serious
African craze among the negroes is due to a
combination Of circumstances. First an alleged
discrimination against negroes the railroads
in Georgia stirred up feeling among the col
ored race. Then an order issued by the Consol-
idated Street Car Company assigning seats to
colored people added fuel TO the fire. However
that may be. it is certain that the doctrine of
emigration is being preached from many of
the negro pulpits in the city. In Bethel Church,
on Wheat street, last Sunday nigh; tho negroes
were advised by the preacher to leave this
Georgia and go to their own country, Africa,
where they would have equal rights and help
govern" Among other prospects this pulpit
orator held out to his sable congregation was
street cars Of their own" Other negro preach
ers are holding out emigration to Africa as the
only future salvation (in worldly sense) OF the
American negro race. These sermons are hav-
ing marked effect on those who hear them and
may result that a bona fde emigration to AZ
rica will set in One Of the negro preachers
