W Hef«runt™ T rsp P |U 0 'thi'te«n year* and a half "
told by the Uacher, he a*ked me
"V as before, from
A rhe'£y repeated "America," and taking a piece
of chaik wrote upon the blackboard.
"Von have come from a great distance and mn»t
have *en a great many wvages, who were very
W imnng ell the time I had been conversing with
the teacher, he giving me Informatien about bis
sopils, aod requesting me to question them,
without ever having a sospiclen that I wet talk
ing with a deef man and listening to a dumb on?,
•ad should have remained in this ignorance, had
not the guide, after he had permitted me to enjoy
my error for a quarter of an hour informed me
that the teacher* a* well a* the pupils, had been
born deaf, and, until within the last five years
bad never spoken a word.
Two of tbo boy® stood opoo A platform, it the
teachers raggeetion, and held a conversation with
each other, and then wrote sentences on the board
and reed them In a lond and distinct voice.—
Another boy was called up and handed a book,
which I opened for him at random, and from
Which he read two or throe pages rapidly and
without th* slightest hesitation, and with a really
musical, agreeable voice.
The popils, of conrse, receive the idea intended
to be conveyed to them through the formation
©f the lips, end once or twice, when the tescher
was speaking to tbem, they made a motiou signi
fying that they did not folly understand him. aod
once one of them drew him to the window, w.iere
the light played fully upon bis lips while be was
altering quite a loug seutence Of course tbey
can have no idea what a sound is, aud the ouly
difference I noticed between their utterances and
those of other children was that the m xlulations
Were not always correct, and some of them kept
the voice at the ssme pitch while speaking or read
ing an entire sentence. But so perfectly cau tbey in
terpret the movement cf the lips, that when
placed so that they could not fee the side of
the teacher's meutb, they understood htm eti
dently as well as when looking directly
•t his lips. Be perfect, indeed, was tlie
whole exhibition, that had I dropped In acci
dentally without knowing where X was going,
the last place I should over have suspected my
self to be In would have been among the deaf aud
dumb children.
It was in this room alone, I learned from the
teacher, tbat spoken language was emplojed, aud
here no slgos were used, the children being taught
their lessons either by speech or writing, aud the
smartest and most capable children are placed
here. I remained tftere an hour, and a crowd of
strange suggestive thoughts came over me as I
left. Where, after such an exhibition as I had
witnessed, conid bouuds be put to the results of
patient labor; where can be placed tbe limls of
possibility? I doubt whether the good Abbe L'Kbee,
who founded tbe institution, ever dreamed tbat io
eo short a time tbe truths of tbe text from St.
Mark, which his inscribed over the chapel altar,
"11 a bfin fait touts* ch'.srs. 11 a/ait enUndrt les
tour<li ft parler hi mwtt," wonld hare been so lit
erally verified as I had seen it dnriog my visit.
Th* Morpht TmtimoiuaL.—The following des
cription of tbe Bet of chessmen, which is to be pre.
sen ted to Mr. Morphjr upon his return heme from
Europe, appears in a New York paper:
Tbe white pieces are of solid silver, and the
black pieces of solid gold, standing upon bases of
cornelian —the metal being covered, iu all cases,
with elaborate and delicate workmanship. Tbe
Fawn*, Bisbops, Queens, Kings, are all human
flgaref, the Knights are horses rampant; tbecis
ties are elephants, each with a boudah upou his
back, surmounted by a spread eagle. The white
Pawns are Gothic belligerants, with clubs and
helmets, and are dressed in skins, with horns of
the animal projecting from their beads. The
black Pawns ar# less barbaric soldiers, armed with
the shields and short swords of the Kotnau Irgion
ty. Tbe Bishops evidently belong to the church
militant, being stalwart warriors, with elevated
■words, bucklers, bolmets, and even a pair of Mer
cury's wings. All tbe royal personages bear
globe* or bat's upou their heads in place cf the
crown*, which lie unused at their feet. Upon
theabieldof tbe white King is seen tbe motto.
"Libarty." The cbeas board is a slendid piece of
workmanship, and artistically lolaid with ebony
and mother of pearl. The border is mad* of silver,
•n<l will exhibit at each corner,: encircled In
wreaths, tbe letters "P. M.," tbe initials of the
greatest chess genius that over lived The sides
of the border are chased and beaotifally designed.
Paul Morpht —Morphy, the American chess
champion, at last accounts, was beiDg feted by the
London players. He again played eight games
simultaneously, blindfold, his adversaries being
very skillful men. He won two, aud the other
aix games were drawn after seven hours play.
Mr Morphy was on the eve of leaving for Amer
ica.

Busied Alive—A slognlar circumstance, says
the Albany Knickerbocker of the 27th, came to j
lighton opening a vault atta:hed to one of our
burial grounds on Sunisy last. The body of a fe
male, who was deposited therein for dead, some
two months since, was found, on opening the cot*
flo,lying on her side with one hand t under her
head. From this it ia evident that tbe womon
was alive when piaoed there, aod, awakening frotn
her trance In which ahe had faneD. eDdeavored to
extricate herself. This was Impossible, the cover
was not only screwed down tightly, but the space
was too contracted te allow even an effort. It was
evidentjhowever, that the unfortunate w.mau be
came convinced it this fact, and concluded to die.
ShT therefore took the eaay poature to which she
1-t The thought
that thev had bnried her while yet alive set her
alnoat eraaed. The body was that of a
wbo formerly resided in the Bowery. The
and mother of the deceased had just ar
rived from the old country last week, and were
brought to the vault to see their child The scene
K related aa heart-rending.
Xnnutma Irctdint.—Col J B Baldwin, of

that aa soon aa Col Baldwin, became aatiafied
that Mr Robertaon waa elected, be aat down and
wrote him a letter of congratulation, couched in
very complimentary terma. At tbe time of tbe
reception of tbla letter, Mr Robertaon waa ouder
the belief that Col Baldwin waa tbe aacceasfal
competitor. So. In lien of writing bis friend an
original letter of congratulation, he look hi* let

all Nervous, Rheumatic, and Neuralgic Affections,
it has in numerous instances proved nighly benefl
cial, and in others effected a decided cure.
This is a purely vegetable compound, prettared on
strictly scientific principles, after the manner of the
celebrated Holland Proteesor, Boerliave. Because of
its great success in most ofthe European States, its in
troduction into the U. Statts was intended more espe
cially for those of our fatherland scattered here and
there over the face of this mighty country. Meeting
with great success among th«m, 1 now offer it to the
American public, knowing that its truly wonderful
medicinal virtues must be acknowledged.
It Is particularly recommenced to those persona
whose coiisitutions may have been impaired by the
continuous use of ardent spirits, or other forms ot
dissipation. Generally instantaneous in effect, it
tinds its way directly to the seat of life, thrilling
»ud quickening every nerve, raising up the droop
ing spirit, and, in fact, infusing new health and
figor in the system.
NOTlCE.—Whoever expects to find this a beve
rage will be disappointed; but to the sick, weak and
low spirited, k will prove a grateful aromatic cor
diil, possessed of properties.
The great popnlaritjcf this delightful Aroma has
Induced many imitations, which the public should
guard against purchasing. Be not porsuaded to buy
anything else until you have given BOERUAVE'S
HOLLAND BITTERS a fair trial. One bottle will
convince yon how Infinitely superior it is to all
