Many of them, however, are dead, or reduced to poverty, and most of the business there must be in the hands of new men.—Bostou Traveller.

In all these exercises, which were interspersed with singing by the school, the children acquitted themselves admirably, and. the audience was delighted to see the manner which the children of the Asylum participated, singing their parts and reciting texts with ag much ease as if they were at home with the school.
