THE DEAF, DUMB AND ELLND.
During oar late visit to Rakish, ws ' 1 the
above named Institution. ;
It U now complete In all of lis . 1 le
partmenta, and is steadily and pTospervus!y toil
ing out the beniSccnt ends of Its founJ-;;on.-
Many, of the advanced pupllt cxlilU couslJcrf
ble profkioncy lo their studies, and seea to enjoy
thefnspecttUtOttf bc(bre them and grows
brlgUt jr aqd bright' every day. The behavior
of an thar is represented as most exemplary,
r certaluly a matter of gratification to team
t a more harmonious school of equal extent
can no where be fuund. yif.
The Blind department is Jaitln its Infancy, and
but fow have as yet availed themselves of Its ben.
eflta. Those, however, who have done so, are ev
Idently deriving from their new and ample advsa
tagea a cheering degree of lroprovewM-nta. ; They
are rapidly advancing In the difficult art of raid
ing booka printed In raised letters, and in the ao
quUltloi by oral instruction, of a variety of the
more useful branches of education. It is indeed
contemplated to make the course of lnsrotlon
equal to that of tLe best schools lu the putry.
The cnltlvation of mnsie as a source of eievated
enjoyment, and a resource for future support, oc
cupldi SBtich of their flme ,am attention ;and when
we number of pupils becomes anfflcient, their
performances as an instrumental band will no
doubt add a great deal to the attractions and nop-
nianiy or ine instjiuUon,,;. v ; r' v- -i . '
For tba purpose of fully employing the time of
ine pupis, n tot)) dep rtmonts, and, , of fitting
tbetq fbr future osefulness, jind, as ffct as possible,
.NWHSW-' jeonrWP 4egree of atten
Wo la &a4 fo thefr Instnutloa i in certain mechan
ical traces, and other manual operations' adapted
to thejf various conditions of age, sex. and health,
and to the sphere they may be expected to occu
py sereafter. ; Printing scorns t be the employ
meat generally preferred by the Deaf and Dumb,
and In the office of the Wttkty Pofi, which Is on
the premises, some of the adulu enjoy the most
ample advantages for that object. They there aoe
the art executed in Its best stylo, and promise to
make graceful and rapid compositors ; whilst they
are encouraged byj thelhope of being employed
hereafter, In the same office or, )e where, alter
the completion of their studies. Tbe Improve
ment, as scholars, which they must derive from
this useful occupation, must be obvious to every
printer, and is sufficient of itself to recommend
this department tp ths fostering interest of the
eommnulty. -, , ' . "' . ,"f'"- "
It is also designed to teach the Blind such man
ual operations as experience has shown to be best
adapted to their condition. .'., if
It may be added that according to the general
experience of similar institutions, mechanical de
partments are very far from being a source' of pe
cuniary profit ; but such are the t manifest bene-
nia nowtng irom tnem t thomar&J, intellectual,
and physical Interests of the pupils, that they are
everywhere adopted, and often at a considerable
loSS. . ,-.
If persons having blind children In their fami
lies, pr under their chargo, were fully aware of
the advantages provided in this institution for
their education, and of the pleasure they take In
such pursuits; if they could witness tbe eviden
ces there presented of their rapid Improvement
and elovation is the social scale, they .would not
long nesitate to place them within Jts walls, and
introduce them to its privileges.' Tiat ma.oy will
embrace an early opportunity to, do so, there can
be little doubt j anl it would be a truly benevo
lent object for persons fho 'i.sh to be useful, to
diffuse the necsasary information among the peo
ple, an4 exerjbemselres to promote the pros
perity of ttys excellent Institution?
