Tent Iffade-The Water to be Into the fltr ITIaIu this morning at 10 O'clock. The final tests and those the sererest that can be applied having been completed, and the breakage developed by these extra precautions against future mishaps having been repaired, it has been determined to let the water into the city mains to-day at about the time above named.

The intention is to nt the water run freely through the hydrants and flow off throughout the city for several days, so as to thoroughly cleanse the pipes of all earthy matters gathered in the process of laying, and at the same time discharge the somewhat turbid waters from the reservoirs. It will, of course, be some little time before we can expect in city distribution pipes A portly limpid water, such as flows from the lake, as it will take time for the reservoirs to become thorougly freed of ail their soluble contents and the pipes cleared of all adhering earthy matter; bat it is sure to come in due time. An examination at some of the openings on the conduit line, miles away from the lake, shows that it is even now rushing cityward as clear as the crystal waters at their source. It may be well to remind those having the two systems of pipes connected Hemlock and Holley to close the connection at once, so as to allow only the former to be open. Meeting at the Office to fon-eider the Prow pec or Etabllhlng a Dear TOute Institution In tbts City Addreee by Dm.

Gallandet, Anderoon, Rider and Othert-Heio" lotion Adopted Board or Trustees Appointed. A meeting of citisens interested in the project of establishing an institution for deaf mutes in this city was held last evening at the mayor's office, quite a large number of mutes and others being in attendance. Shortly before 8 o'clock Mayor Clarkson rose and, stating the object of the meeting, hoped that those present would give their views on the subject. Upon motion of Dr. Gallaudet, the mayor was appointed chairman and Edward L.

Hart secretary of tbe meeting. Dr. Anderson then invoked divine blessing upon the meeting and its object. Dr. Gallaudet offered the following resolution Resolved.

That It is expedient to establish an institution for deaf mutes in this city. Carried. Dr. Gallaudet next proceeded to address the meeting in regard to the necessities of establishing an institution for the education of the deaf and dumb in Rochester. He said that it was a self-evident proposition that af mntes Rhnuld -dnW Legislature had recognised the importance of such course and had ever been willing to make ap propriations tor its accompnsnment.

ine deaf and dumb who were of proper age to be educated were divided into two classes; those who were under twelve years of age were provided for by the counties from which they came and those over that age were provided for by the state, 1300 per year being devoted to each pupiL Rut the means of education were not adequate for the great We Makujijecialty Manilla Papers In Sheets and Rous, and have a large and complete Stock of Light and Heavy Papers, Tissues, Ac.

They came so near accomplishing their object About a year ago the New York uistitiitUu if he had not been cared for by the kind JTCCtlj CTwCrGcn uoaait ion, there sisters of St. Marys hospttai TCZll being betwn five and six hundred pupils ta been driven to crime in order to save him-be provided for. It was therefore thought self from dvinir from himr Th rr. C. E.

Rider had found In his profes sional experience that many epidemics, stirh as the spotted fever which scourged our city a year ago, left many children deaf, who would in time become dumb. It bad then occurred to him bow much an institution was needed in this part of the state. D. M. Dewey said he would like to hear what the mutes themselves had to say on the subject.

Mr. Acker, one of the mutes then arose and, with lr. Gallaudet acting as an interpreter, said he thought it was very important to have such an institution in Rochester, as he knew many families who had deaf and dumb children who would not seud them to New York, but were anxious that they should te educated. He hoped the gentlemen would go on. step by step, until they had accomplished their purpose.

Dr. Anderson moved that a committee be appointed to choose fifteen gentlemen to act as a board of trustees. Carried. The chair forthwith appointed the following gentlemen to art as such a committee: O. A.

Perkins, H. W. Deans and J. B. Booth.

The committee then retired for deliberation. Henry Quimby then made a few remarks saying that the establishment of such an institution was of as much imiortanoe to the whole state as to the western portion, and that thereore it should be a matter for legislation. Dr. Ilidcr said that the blind asylum at Batavia was established and supported by the state and he considered that the deaf mutes were worthy of as much consideration as the blind. 1 he committee here returned and submitted the names of the following gentlemen, who should act as a board of trustees: George G.

Terry. On motion of Dr. Anderson, the report was adopted. Marcus Michaels moved that the board of trustees be empowered to take measures for accomplishing the object of the meeting. Carried.

The meeting then adjourned. There will te a meeting of the trustees this morning at 11 o'clock in the mayor's oflice. Tbe manning Case. A day or two since an article was in the Democrat and Chronicle giving ar account of an attempted suicide on the pa of a man named J. Z.

Manning. It was said that he took arsenic and that the interpo ti of a physician and a stomach-pump saved his life. Mr. Manning called ujxm us hist even- 1 ing and desired to make a statement for publication contradicting some of the points ma le -in the article ahove mentione He said tint 1 in regard to the domestic 6. Ticulties he had encountered, he had the misfi rtune to marry a bad woman, and one whose m.nd became un- balanced so that she was pronounced insane, i She became impressed with the idea that she I must kill her husband, and did, while the couple were living in Brooklyn, make two different attempts at his murder by firing at him with a pistol.

For these acts he says she was indicted, but by connivance with the dis- i on ground of insanity. He furthermore says that certain parties living in this city used him unfairly in financial transactions and so drained him of all the money he possessed, that he was left completely destitute. He came to Rochester eighteen months ago to have those matters settled by the courts, but they had dragged along in so slow a manner that be dispaired of ever realising anything from his rights in the matter. His wife's name he says was Fidelia R. Quaid, and ever since his separation from her she has instigated persecutions against him.

That these persecutions extended to this city and tbe fraudulent aecrees ox the Brooklyn judges coupled with the machinations of the parties here have reduced him to poverty and want. He claims that he is an important witness against one of those parties in a perjury suit aud that they are tryincr to starve him out. also wished to hunt him down until he should commit suicide, but that they could not make him do. As for tbe reported attempt at suicide before mentioned, that was a miftake. He took no arsenic.

He was in the 1 habit of taking chloral for sleeplessness, and took an overdose. It threw him into spasms, from which the sisters at the hospital relieved him before the arrival of any doctor. was out of his head for two davs and didn't know what he was saying or doing. He was living at the hospital on charity. The above is Mr.

Manning. statement. Any one on reading it can readily see that the man's troubhs have ben severe. Besides, the chloral evidently unsettled his mind. Deal of a Pennlaa 71 Uslonary.

She I possessed a hih cultivated mind, aud was greatly beloved by alL She was moreover an earnest and most exemplary Christian, and i joyfully accompanied her husband and shared his labors. They were married une ti-jth, 1874, and sailed for their distillation at King- po, China Oct. At the farewell recep tion of Mr. and Mrs. Churchill, in the Wash ington street Baptist church in this city, the 1 latter, when requested to make some remarks, said she was only too happy to be able to ac- i company her hm-ltand to the land of heathen darkness.

They had dwelt but a few months in their new borne when consumption seized upon the wife. Her husband took her to i Yokohama and every effort was made to save her, but all proved in vain. Her remains were taken back to Jiingpo for interment." Swearing In Court. Trials of civil causes in courts of record are generally of an uninteresting nature, except to the parties pecuniarily interested in the results. Occasionally, however, a bright sally of wit by counsel or witness relieves the monotony.

The following specimen occurred in the county court yesterday: The case on trial was a horse case and was clcsely contested by the counsel on either side. Mr. examining a witness on behalf of the plaintilf, asked a question which Mr. defendant's counsel, objected to as leading, saying that he did not want Mr. H.

to swear, but preferred to have the witness swear. The court said that this was the first time he had heard Mr. H. accused of swearing, and was not aware that he bad ever before been accused of using profane language. There was a quiet smile indulged in by the spectators and the trial proceeded.

Twenty-five years ago a boy's appetite for enjoyment was not at ail seriously blunted at school, nor was there much fear of his round holiday amusements being fatiguing. He seldom If ever enjoyed the intoxicating bliss beholding bis name and his achievements forth in type. Now a change has come over all educational establishments. The work of the term, which has generally superseded the old-fashioned "half," serves as a foil for a round of matches, regattas, reviews, theatricals, concerts, popular lectures, athletic sports, all duly chronicled in the local journals, and perhaps even in metropolitan (tapers. Examinations are more frequent, more solemn, and attract more public attention.

Thus an energetic lxy who is good round," passes from one bout of competition to another with little interval during his school career. If home, as is natural, wishes hold its own juvenile favor, it must utilise the multiplied opportunities of amusement, that the holidays pass in downright dissipation. At the universities the erpetual emulation goes on in an intensified form, while the newspaper notoriety bonnd enhance the various passions of youn as-pi ran to distinction is more pronounced than ever. Suddenly all the strain of personal rivalry is removed, and the stimulus of frequent distinction is withdrawn, and the hero an enthusiastic circle of admirers settles down as a oommnn-place person to a monotonous routine of business. Surely it is not altogether strange that for a time life should appear flat, stale and unprofitable.

The more keen the stress of the probationary period, the stronger is the reaction when the definite struggles of the youth against his fellows are succeeded by the vague, desultory warfare with tlie great world.

I'Hoeli, at bVlJUi i ani iu ttiaMot, i i i i i The business of mining for the precious metals in the auriferous regions is now reduced to a thoroughly practical basis and but little speculation exists In that direction. Several mining companies originating in Rochester ten or twelve years ago were unsuccessful, because they omiued the indispensable precaution of making thorough preliminary investigations before engaging in expensive operations. A company is now aloat to be organised here under the name of the "Monroe Hilver Mining company," which owns certain leads Montana which have been opened by experienced miners and proved to be of real value and answering tests which usually give assurance of very profitable results. A gentleman interested in the new company has been upon the ground at intervals for the last four years and has devoted much time to the examination and testing of the particular silver leads which the company propose to work, and he has no doubt whatever of the great richness of those loads. In addition to this another gentleman, deemed of a conservative and cautious temperament, has visited Montana recently upon a special mission tt examine theee mines and has made upon his return fuvorable report in regard to them.

A mining enterprise could hardly be started under more favorable auspices and with greater certainty of success, the previous failures having lead to peculiar caution in the for this, A. Austin Brewster, H. S. Redfleld, M. II.

Of the existence of rich mines of silver and gold in that country there can be no question, the constant yield of rich ores amply attesting the fct; and when a good lead is obtained there can be no doubt as to the profitableness of working it. The metal represents a certain value without fluctuation and always finding its market at established rates. Alexandre Kids, Tredfouaie Kids, 9 Main street bridge, OcUMPAUUli'S. Gentlemen's Gloves.

In the Livingston Republican we find the following in relation to the preparations for ti fortiic.ming state sportsmen's convention in-enefreo: "This association has already mnienced making preparations for the next meeting of the state association, which will be tome time in the early summer. A meeting was held at the Robinson house Tours-ciay mht, and received reports from the sev eral committees sppo nted to engage grounis, 1 prepare prizes, etc. The comnaittee on Tound reported that they had engaged the big meadow on tne Major Spencer farm held containing about 4U0 acres, just across the river below the depot with the privilege of a good position for flv-casting a few rods above the river bridge, and which can be made rery serviceable at a little expense to build a I'ier about twenty feet into the stream. It was i.ot decided on what grounds to exhibit the flogs, which is expected to be one of the main features at the meeting bat it thought that the fair ground wM be secured for that pur-3e, unless the committee can provide a uitable cn the shooting grounds. The cuTCittee on p-jtes are to correspond itli tl btding manufacturers of guns and nd ont whai prizes they are willing to donate for the occasion.

The members of the club Lave a fcreai responsibility in undertaking to prepare for th exhibition, but we think they will be found equal to the emer-geocy. The grounds are to be put in proper condition, several buildings will need to be eiwted for he accommodation of judges, re- I orters snd others; birds secured, and a hundred other thine attended to which are not thought of at the present time. If our citi-eus co-operate with the sportsmen when called upon, it will assist them in a great measure and be the means of insuring success. We would bot hke to see a failure in any part of the prolan? uie, and do not think there will be if the committee commence at one to ork with a will.

White an account of her experience with the burglars. Hhe says: About 12 o'clock, or a little after, five burglars entered our peaceful borne with all the violence that we have often had pictured to us through the papers, and such as Is hard to believe, andean only be realised through experience, such as we have now had. The first intimation Laura had of what was going on was that a man was entering their room, over the sitting-room, and he had a dark lantern in bis hand and immediately sprang to their bed, while both screamed. They were then held by their throats, two men then being there, and at once HANDCUFFED AND HELD DOWIT. I had not been asleep over ten minutes, for I heard the town-clock strike 12, and at we were all under their entire subjection, there being a man or two men in my chamber at once.

The first I knew a man entered my room, and the dark lantern waked me, I suppose, I screamed, thinking it was John, and hut the house was on kuu sprang out of bed. He put me tack and choked, me and then told me he would treat me kindly if I would keep perfectly quiet. He said I was caught "You are all caught and you as well give up." He told me 1 must get up. I begged him to let me lie there, but he said "No," and pulled me up and led me into the hall and then handcuffed me. He then took me into Laura's room no, not quite yet.

After getting me into the hall he said I would take cold with-; out more clothing, and I told him I would TAKE MV DEATH OF COLD that way, and he led me back into my roo'm, when I obtained more clothes, and he took me with them. Very shortly after Maria, Aunt Hattie and her husland walked in the same room, and the girl was brought in with us. After they had got us all in that room they made us all get up separately and dress. Of course we were rjpod in ach other's clothing, and some were half dressed. They kept hurrying us up, and we were ail wonderfully possessed.

I was very calm, and acted ac-j cordingly. They opened bureau drawer, and took out her handsome violet cloak, and banded it to her, saying I guess this is what you want." 8he put that on with her balmoral skirt, and then I was fixed up, and they fell short of handcuffs. Then Laura and I were joined by one handcuff, and they took us off into the front room and put us in the bed, and then tied our hands and feet with leather straps buckled as tight as possi- ble. They then took HEAVY ROPES and slipped through these and brought the rope under the led and fastened it with extra ropes besides. They served us all this way.

They treated John cruelly; also Aunt Hattie. The last operation was to gag us with rubber gags. John was blindfolded and tied in another position. They then dragged him into the lower bedroom and he was almost dead when found. Laura and I extricated ourselves first by the greatest effort, and we dragged ourselves, bed and all, to the window, about 7 o'clock in the morning, and with one free hand opened the window and alarmed the neighborhood.

filed apart, and it was about 0 o'clock when Laura and I were separated. We are alive and well, only that we are SC HATCH KD AND BRUISED, and John's chest is black and blue. They held a pistol at his head after they got him in the bedroom, when they demanded the keys and combination. They did not touch the silver, but took John's watch and chain. L.

These will be placed ou exhibition at Philadelphia. The Boston Journal earnestly opposes tbe proposition to take from the walls of Faneuil hall the portraits of Sam Adams and Peter Faneuil, for exhibition in one of the art galleries of the centennial exhibition, which has been favorably reported on by a joint special committee of the two branches of the Boston -city government. It thinks the risk of their loss or injury is too great. The Philadelphia Prsa, which has lieen asking the hotel men of that city what their charges are to be next summer, says "We are glad to be able to give the assurance of the proprietors of the several hotels in Phila- delphia that during the coming summer boarding and lodging rates will not le materially advance!" A reading of the replies 1 which it has received shows that mo-t of the hotels leave themselvos in a position to charge what they please.

Queen Victoria has placed the following pictures at the disposal of the centennial commibsion: "The Marriage of the Young Princej-s," by Northcote; "The Marriage of H. K. H. the Prince of Wains," by from Buckingham palace; The Sleeting of 1 the Members of the Royal Acad- ZofTany, an engraving, from Windsor castle; Hayter's portrait of "Her Majesty in Coronation Palace," and Benjamin West's "Ieath of Wolf," from Hampton Court palace.

In a card in the I'liiladclphia Timas he denies that he charged corruption or wrong-doing against the cen- tenniai commiiiuutn and against the board of finance, or that he sought to secure a position under tlie commission with a liberal salary, anl snys: "1 only det-ared the su(X49s of tlie commission according to the original plan and purpfco, anl not under the expensive scheme of a bureaucracy, tlie purpose and effect of which were to take the legitimate business and management of the exhibition substantially out of the control of the commissioners, while, the law makes it the duty of the commission to prepare and superintend the execution of a plan for holding the Lilteria having found it necessary to uje the money appropriated to secure her repre- sentatioa at the exhibition in defending her- self in her war with the natives, E. 8.

For several months past William Steul, who lives on the corner of Alexander street and Pinnacle avenue, had been troubled with rheumatism, which developed into the inflammatory form.

He had, however, been enabled to attend to his business as usual, and was in the habit of riding out nearly every day for the benefit of his health. Yesterday he went out in the afternoon, as was his custom, and on returning to his house complained that he did not feel as well us he did when he went out. In a few minutes he was taken very ill, and in less than au hour, and before the physician who was summoned arrived, he sudiienlv and quietly expired. Dr. Beach, who had been called, came as quickly as possible, but found the man a corpse on his arrival at the house.

From all examination he was enabled to make, it was thought the unfortunate man had died of heart disease, su-ptriniluced by the inflammatory rheumatism from which he bad so long been a sufferer. While Dr. Beat was present in the house of the deceased, he noticed that one of the children who was ill, was badly broken out in the face, flaking an examination, he was surprised to find that the child had the small-pox in severe form. He at once sent word to the health officer and the house was quarantined. As may be imagined, this places the family in a very emharassing and unpleasant situation.

No one is allowed to enter the house, uless in case of absolute necessity, and there they are with their Tather dead in the house and one of their number violently ill with the small pox and their dwelling under strict guard. Doubtless the remains of the deceased will be removed this morning and the funeral held at some other time. The deceased was a very prominent man in his circle of life and his death will be greatly lamented. He was a prominent member and an elder of the Salem Evangelical church, Rev. ilr.

The above-muned celebrated pianist gave one of his inimitable entertainments in Corinthian hall last night. It was the last of the course presented by the Athenaeum association, and with the exception of the lecture by Carl Schurz, can. without question, be also termed the best. The theme which Professor Pattison presented was the life of Gottschalk and the peculiarities of his musical works. explained and delineated verv carefully and precisely upon the piano-forte.

The manner of the lecture proper was about the same as that given here last winter. The different classes of Gottsc balk's compositions were handled in succession, and each peculiar phase exemplified by the execution of some of bis works. To say that the lecture was entertaining and instructive is but feebly expressing the effect produced by it upon the audience. By such entertainments as that of last evening the public are educated and re- ceive a better insight into the real sentiment be gained in any other way. It is no wonder, then, that Professor Pattison is so popular and draws such large housed.

Last winter he had the largest audience of the course, and this year he has the same honor. That beautiful composition 11 The List so eminently characteristic of its author, was played by Professor Pattison in unexceptionable style, save that to the ear of many it was played too fast, entailing, consequently, something of a loss in expression. The Marche de Suit" was splendidly rendered and afforded the audience much pleasure. The "Pensee poetique' and Serenade were encored and in response Professor Pattison played a duett with Professor Adams of the Lyons academy. They played the duett Aja Crvollos" in perfect style and were most heartily applauded.

The beautiful gem, "The Cradle Song," was well played, with the exception of some fclight mhAakes, which were nothing important in themselves, but marred somewhat the smoothness of tne peronruLnee. The "Banjo" was given in a manner beyond criticism, and the perfect care with which the difficult tin-goring was done drew out the admiration of aiL It was given an enthusiastic encore, and in response Professor Pattison gave a little morwau of his own composition. The hut selection, ''Murmures Eoliens," was eminently satisfactory, and the audience dispersed highly pleased with the Hao entertainment bo which they had iisteued. Jobs Smith, Ased 104.

Mr.

Smith followed his occupation until he was nearly ninety years old, and his son Thomas now occupies the old stand on Washington street. In the year 1h4 Mr. Smith visited his native land and the scenes of his boyhood, remaining in England something over six months. Shortly after his return home he went to live with his daughter in Philadelphia, and has from time to time since then visited his home. On the occasion of his last visit, and when in his one hundredth year, the Chronicle man, by reference to his file, will find in the Democrat and Chronicle, if we mistake not the facts re- cited above, and also, an account of a feat of which this same John Smith performed, having walked from Geneva to Waterloo, a distance of seven miles, at midday, in the summer of that year, without the aid of a staff an item which was widely copied from its columns, throughout the state.

Mr. Smith retains in a wonderful degree both his physical strength and mental faculties; his legal adviser, Judge F. 0.

It was then found that although the Home institution, which was called the Cen-; tral New York institution, had acquired a membership of fifty -nine, tbe number of pu- nils altMidin? th Nw York int.it.iit1rtn ha, not sensibiy diminished. This fact led to the thoueht of establishing another in- stitution in the western part of the state.

The idea had been encouraged and liinuential citisens of Kochsster had invited the establishment in this city. The doctor then gave a brief historic sketch of the method of communicating ideas by means of signs. The system had been introduced in France, by Abbe De Le Pee, and as its advantages came to le appreciated, it was adopted throughout the country. The system was introduced into this couutry through the efforts of Dr. Gallandet, the father of the speaker, and Laurent Clerc, who in April, 117, established the first deaf and dumb institution in America.

There were at present forty asylums scattered all through the United sStates. Besides the system of sign language there were several institutions where the pupils were taught to articulate. The institution of this churcter in New York had at present a membership of between sixty and seventy. But in the experience of most of the prominent educators of deaf-mutes, the sign language was by far the most expedient. The establishment of a deaf and dumb asvlum in Rochester was a matter which bhould be ear- nestly considered.

When we understand that a large number of our citisens, bereft of hearing and speech, were growing up totally ignorant, the idea became appalling. Lr. Gallaudet then introduced Z. M. Westervelt, from the New York institution, who read some interesting statistics.

He said that in the United States, taken as a whole, there was one deaf mute to every i.ow oi wie population, un me newer states and territories the number was much smaller. An article on deaf ami dumb in Appleton's new encyclodedia stated that in Iduho tbe census of returned one deaf mute to every 15,000, while in the District of Colum- bia, which, as part of Maryland, was one of the older colonies, to every of the popula- tion there was one deaf mute; this large pro portion being due in part to the presence of some sixty college students and directly under the eye of the commissioner, the enumeration was perhaps more carefully mado. There was a much smaller proportion of deaf mutes in this state than in the District of Columbia, though an estimate of one in 1,200 was supported by facta, so far as we had obtained satisfactory statistics. By the census of 1870 the population of Rochester was The above estimate would give from this fifty-three deaf mutes. A list of the deaf mutes of this city was made, which, though incomplete, contained over sixty names.

The counties west of and including Madison had a population of and by the above proportion there were 1,200 deaf mutes in these counties in the year 170. From the nport of the jniperiutendont of public in-fctiuction we found that thirty -five per cent, of the population were between the aes of five and twenty-one years. This per cent, of tlie deaf mute population would give 420; but as the limit of school eeof deaf mutes was from six to twenty five years, there was a larger number than this within these limits. Again, Mr. Gilmours report showed that sixty-flee percent, of the children of school age attended school.

If tbe compulsory education act wa enforced a mu.h larger number would be in attendance. If deaf mutes took advantage of all the time allowed them, over eighty-five cent, of those of school age, or of the above -120, oiJ would be now attending school. niutea.

He further stated that the census of seventeen of the western counties returned 113 for whom educational privileges were not pro-vidud.

There were 170 from the western counties now attending the Kew York institution. Ke had discovered over thirty deaf mute who were above the age aa limited by Law and too old to gain any great advantag from school privileges. hr. Anderson said that he heartily sympathised with the movement, though be had not previously given the subject uim thought. He considered that an Institution etablish'-d would le great matter of economy.

In time of illness it was parlii ularly neitssary that tlie frienda of the child who was deaf and dumb should be with him, but many indigent parent could not alT rd the exense of ft journey to New York.
