THE WARDS OF THE STATE.
Tho State clmrltlen include three
elnHses of untorttinates who arc entitled
to tho sympathy of tho community: tho
riiflane, tho Deaf Mutes, and tho Wind.
Tho flrt named they whoso reason h
dethroned receive the unromittlngciiro
of competent phyniclans and attendants,
though their malady Is often most re
pulsive and their lives many times a
helpless existence that can only find
relief when death affords a kindly release.
Thucaro of these unfortunates greatly
Increases tho taxation and burdens of
tho 8tnte,liut humanity will not consent
that they should Miller uncared for. Tho
State provides a home for these fillip
wrecked Intellects and cares tenderly for
those of whoso rocovory there Is any
hope.
Tho Blind constitute an Interesting
though not numerous class or imfortu
nates whose soiipcs are heroft of the great
delight of seeing natures and participat
ing In the ordinary activities ot life.
Kor them n system of education has
been provided, and our State contributes
Mimetlilntr. towards maintaining here n
hchool for their Instruction. Tho wholo
number in tho State hardly constitutes
more than enough to form n single
sehool, and ns many of them can only
reach Instruction if ottered to them at
public expense the relief ulibrdcd by the
State Is a great blessing.
Still another class receive Siato Instruc
tion 'o refer to tho J)eaf Mutes, whoso
school has just adjourned for tho season
and whose closing exercises wo havo no.
tlced. Those who wero present could
realize the great blessing of this school
to those to whom all tho voices of nature,
the volleyed thunder, tho rustling wind,
tho sweelest songs of birds and tho stilt
sweeter muslo ol kindly voices are un
known and unappreciated. When we
realize the lulliiciico of sound upon the
senses that all lesions and good impres
sions nro oxpiesscd by lip and tongue
wo may readily perceive now dillluult It
Is to teach these mute scholars to use
words that have lor them no voice, and
language that lucks all emphasis and
oxpivs-ilou. J lore signs ami wonderful
pantomime are made the vehicle of
instruction, and tho child, or youth, or
(veil man, who has grown up without a
cultivated moral sense ameuablo only
to kindness, and often willful and pas
sionate beyond control becomes first
aware of his moral existence, learns to
cultivate thesoul, (oculist tlioaU'ectlous,
to understand life and Its duties, often
for the llrst time learns of tho tics of
home, of tho relations of tho family,
why parents nro to bo repeetwl nntl
oiteycd nnd itilu lives to bo loved. And
here they are first taught tho existence
of a Ondaiul tho duties that nro Incul
cated by our religion.
One young limn intelligent nnd
attractive In looks, as arc most of these
pupils was not amenable to homo
iulluctices and would not assist his father
on the farm without payment. He had
learned the value of money and Its uses
ami knew no hviimiii why lie owed ser
vice to his father more than to others.
Iteliig sent to tills school ho was taught
all this wonderful science of social life; a
new world was opened to him, he became
aware of his position and of his duties,
and learned his own deficiency. Just
imagine what the dawn of reasoning
powcis wrought lor tills young man;
how his mlml was taught to weigh the
right and the wrong, and Ills soul to
ivpo.-c confidence In divine love and his
allcctlons to center in home and the
appreciation of homo duties! Imagine,
loo, the thankfulness in the heart of the
parents when the willful youth, who
went away deaf to all reason as woll as
to sound, camo back n sentient being,
clothed in his right mind, recognizing
his duties ns a sou and a brother and able

the Instruction of Deaf .Mutes for years
before they had any control of the institu

willing to devote themselves to their
instruction, a work to which natural

public that wo call attention to tho iieces

recipients. Wo are In this world to do
kooiI as we havo opportunity, anil tliou

Individual aid cannot easily reach, so tho
aid must como from tlio State. A visit
to thi-sebtato Institutions must convince
any one of tho great good they perform,
and mi long as they are well conducted
they deserve the hearty sympathy and
support of all classes of ultlxeun. They
have the sincere Mipport of Gov. Chad

Death of ExQov. Abernethy.
Wo regret to announce the sudden
death of ex-Gov. George Abernethy,
which took place at his resilience, In
Portland, yesterday afternoon, May 31,
In the 70th year of his age. Gov. Aber-
nethy was one of tho pioneers of Oregon,
having come to tho coast In 1810, in
connection with tho Methodist Mission.
For many years ho was engaged in tho
mercantile business at Oregon City,
being head of tho firm of Abernethy,
Clark & Co., with branches nt Oak
Point (on the Columbia), and in San
Francisco. Disasters by fire and flood
eventually broke up tho company, and
Gov. A. removed to Portland In 1803,
wliero ho has since resided.
In 1814, on tho formation of tho Pro
visional Government of Oregon, by tho
settlers of tho Territory, Mr. Abernethy
was elected Governor of tho infant ter
ritory, and was ro-elccted to tho same
position, which ofilco he held until he
was superseded by Gen. Lane, who pro
ceeded to organize tho Territory under
the act of Congress passed for that pur
ops. The duties of the office wero
performed by Gov. Abernethy with
marked success, although his adminis
tration was beset by many trying
difllcultles with tho hostile Indians. As
a husband, father nnd citizen, no man
stood higher in the esteem of the publlo
than tho deceased: He leaves a widow
and two children to mourn his death
Wm. Abernethy, of Portland, and Mrs.
Hodges, wife of Col. H. C. Hodges, of
the United States Army.
