our fellow citizen, Judge Harrison:
We are sure wemay assume to speak for the
ntire bar of the State in rendering their SYM
pathy along with our own to Judge Harrison
over the very distressing accident of which he
was recently the victim. We have taken
| pains, just before going to press, to inquire
| as to his condition. 1t is gratifying to report
| that he is as comfortable as is possible under
the circumstance, and that his complete re-
covery is but matter of time. Both bones of
the right leg were broken above the ankle,
accompanied by an ugly flesh wound at the
point of fracture. The wound has delayed
the use of plaster splint, with the result
that the patient will be confined to his bed
longer than he would otherwise have been.
His attending physician reports that he suff-
cred no shock from the injury, and bears his
pains and enforced confinement patiently and
cheerfully. His general health is excellent
and his splendid physique and nerve have
rendered anodynes and medicines unnecessary
from the beginning. 1t is thought that he
will be able to leave his bed in a few days,
but that the limb cannot be- safely used for
probably six weeks. The Judges chief dis
tress, as might have been expected, has its
source in his inability to attend the sittings
of the Supreme Court Of Appeals, of which he
is most useful member, during its June term
at Wytheville.
We hope that Judge Harrison may soon be
restored to his place upon the bench, where
he has rendered such acceptable service to
the profession and 10 the State, and Jilst out

EDuCAT1ONAL BUNGLLNG.

EDUCATIONAL BUNGLlNG.
If tie announcement were made that the
Staunton School Board had yesterday elect
ed Principal and teachers large huliipei
of whom were Germans who did not un'
derstand word of our language tne
public would hardly credit it, 1t "oulo
seem SO absurd.
And yet the Board Of Visitors OF the D.'
ID. & Il. Institution have d0nepretty much
the same thing. To appreciate their cholce
Of officers it should be remembered that the
deaf mute children are as dl5tlnctly sepa-
rated from the speaking world, except by
signs, as a German can be nom an Amerl-
can child. 1T is indispensable that they
should have sign making cheers OIL they
cannot communicate their wants. Here is
: a list of the selections by the Board:
4 Principal who cannot communicate
by signs.
A Matron who cannot communicate by
signs.
An Assistant Matr0n who cannot con-
municate by signs.
A Governess who Cannot communicate
by signs.
The last three of these officers are brought
in the most direct and closest contact witt
the littledeaf mutes. How are the mutes tx
get along with officers who DO not under
stand their language I ) IS said that al tnt
non-sign- making officers viii learn. We
suppose that to some extent they will. and
largely from the scholars, thus presenting
the novel sight OF school where the scho
airs teach the teachers. It is like putting
an officer in charge Of q valuable ship witt
the understanding that be VII learn navi
CATION during the voyage, and in the meal
time The passengers may give him a hint Oh
two w to running the ship.
There were competent sign-making can
didates for every one of the places named
above. and 50 there was no excuse for the
deplorabIe action Of the Board We say
deplorable, for if this is al educational
institution it is SO; it is an experiment. that
nc speaking educational institution Of the
country would for a moment think of ven
turing on. 1t is simply triiing with grave
interests, the interests of those who are
unable to help themselves.
We do not suppose for a moment that
any of cur readers will coDfound this crit
icism Oh what has grown up to be PERM
eious system, with an attack on the newly
elected officers. All of them we doubt not

lose some northern and western States that
run after foolish populistic theories, and want
to try every experiment suggested"
