Advantage of the Blind.

A correspondent, writing on the H.
literacy of the native classes, points
out a strange anomaly. In devising
the Oriental Braille" alphabet for the
use of the Indian blind it was found
that the GO combinations of the six
Braille dots will serve to give the
blind one code for the whole of the
languages and dialects. With this
code the Indian blind are being taught,
and no diff Guilty has arisen In any YER
%nacular. The ordinary native blessed
with sight is more unfortunate. The
complicated nature of the native syl-
labaries is such that 1t requires from
500 to 1000 sorts of type to print a
book even in simple language. Orig
