The directors feeling the necessity of greater accommodation, that the usefulâ€" ness of the institution may be augmented, take this preliminary step to bring about a muchâ€"toâ€"beâ€"desired result, and in a circular which accompanies the report, they call attention t> a number of conâ€". siderations which they believe ought to: be sufficient to inljuce the Government of Ontario to assist them in their endeavour They state that when the sum of $75,000 was roted for the establishment of an In. stitution for the Blind of Ontario, during: the Session of 1869 and 1870, it was exâ€" pected by many members of the Legisâ€" lative Assembly, and the public generally, that the proposed Institution would com bine a curative with an educational deâ€" partment,â€"that it would be both a School and an Ophthalmic Hospital ; but in merely providing for the education of 50 or 100 incurably blind boys or girls of the Province, the original conception had not been fully carried into effect, inâ€" asmuch as ample provision has not as yet been made for the efficient treatment of the curable blind. They continue to urge that if it be wise and proper for the Government to establish on an extensive scale, and maintain at a large yearly exâ€" pense, an institution for educating the hopelessly blind, it would be a still wiser policy for the Government to found an institution that has for its object the preâ€" vention of blindness and deafness among the poor of the Province, thereby notonly relieving the patients affliicted with these diseases, but also providing the means for imparting the necessary skill to the students and young practitioners who attend the medical colieges of this city. In this connection the Directors state that the Toronto Eye and Ear Infirmary was established in May, 1867, and forsix and a quarter years, there were 1,455 poor per â€" sons from different parts of the Province, who received gratuitous medical treatâ€" ment for diseases of the eye and ear. The number of patients in attendance graduâ€" ally increased from 104 the first year, to 380 the sizxth. Of these 1,455 patients the large number of about 1,100 have beem either cured or relieved of their We have been fayoured with a copy of the Annual Report of the Toronto Eye and Ear Infirmary, an institution, which, though possessing a local name, is by no means limited in its sphere of usefulnessâ€" The annual meeting of the directors and subscribers to the funds of the institution was held at Toronto about the end of last month, and it was then resolved that the meeting " urge upon the Government the great need of a suitable building for the sccommodation of intern patients, as the statistics of the Infirmary show that more than threeâ€"fourths of the intern patients have been nonâ€"residents of Teronto." ~ Neatly, Chesply, and on the shortest notice.

Many of these patients were quite blind, and if medical skill had not been charitably extended to them, would now be hopelessly blind, In some cases, when the father of the family had been so affiicted, the whole family would be reduced to helpless pauperism, and made dependent upon public or private charity for their maintenancs, but for the relief afforded at the institution. The Directors further claim that the institution is not a jocal but a Provincial one, affordâ€" ing relief to the poor of every part of the Province, and that it also affords valuable clinical ad vantages in opthalmic and aural surgery to medical students, which cannot be obtained in any other institution in the Province.

For these remsons, it is submitted that the institution should be provided by the Provinoigl Legislature with ample grounds andâ€"comtmodious buildings. _ The Direcâ€" tors beli¢éve that they have only to bring Ahese facts and considerations to the notice of the Members of the Local Legisâ€" lature to seoure sympathy and aid for this aflicted class of our fellow subjects, and at the present time when such a warm interest is being taken in the Government Institutions for the blind and deaf at Brant{(ord and Bellevill@respectively, their hope is not likely to be disappointed. At least every one who has the good of their suffaring fellowâ€"creatures at heart will sincerely wish that their efforts to obtain a Government grant for this laudaâ€" ble purpose may be speedily accomplished. The most ordinary mind may see that a grant for such a purpose would be posi® tive economy, for if the faculties of hearâ€" ing and seeing are preserved to so many able bodied men and women, so that they can earn their own living, the State must in the end be the gainer, and this alone, to say nothing of the claims of humanity, ought to be ; sufficient induce: mént for conferring the needed assistâ€" ance. There can be no doub: as to the opinion of the public regarding the imâ€" portance of making ample provision for the treatment of those who may yet be rescued from the sad condition of incura ble blindness, and many may think it is of paramount importance over the claims of the incurably deafand blind. _ . The report is «ltogether a very interest ing one, and in addition to the statistics given above, contains a copy of the conâ€" stitution, and a (list of the subscribers names, with the amount of their subseripâ€" tions. We trust the time is not far disâ€" tant when the Directors will see their efforts to have tueir accommodation inâ€" creased to meet all the requirements of a curative, as well as educational institution, crowned with success. Stz,â€"I noticed in reading over the judgâ€" ment of ‘the Chief Superintendent of Education, as well as the opinion of the Central Board of Examiners on the Borthâ€" wick case, that while the one lady teacher who was supposed to have profited most by the Inspector‘s breach of trust, was deprived of her‘status, her name was nevertheless not mentioned. But Mr. A. Smirleé, who ‘was really the agent in leading her astray, seems to have deterâ€". mined that ‘the veil would not remain ; undrawn ; for, under pretence of rectifyâ€". ing the error Dr Ryersou had made in calling him a County Board Examiner, he hastens to publish her, and repeats her name three different times, so that there may be no mistake. Now I really do not see that the Doctor had committed any very grievious wrong toward Mr. Smirle. To be sure he (Mr. Smirle) was not a County Board Examiner at the time he ‘ divulged the contents of the paper on ‘iterature, (which he ought not even so much as have consented to see,) but he was a principal teacher in one of the Ottawa central schools, and as such was as much bound by honour as the most pretentious examiner of them all‘; for I opine that the honour of a teacher ought to be just as sacred as that of‘" any other man ;" and so all the farrago about his ill usage will cerâ€" tainly notscreen him from the censure which attaches to the act. But his chivâ€" alry was still more signally displayed in that part of the letter which treated of the mamner in which he alleged he had conveyed the contents of the examinaâ€" tion paper to the lady‘s sister, for he there told the public that the lady in question had virtuaily trapped him into making the ‘communication. ‘According to that version, slie met him in the school house, and asked him if he had seen thie paper on Literature assigned to the highest comâ€" petitors ? ‘Now, to make such a statement wear even the semblance ‘of Kpnohobility, the reader must assums that Mr.3.‘s ques tion. had already become aware of the ugauthorized breaking of the seals, and of the exhibition of the paper to other persons, else how could she have asked the question ? If I remember the eviâ€" denee published in the newspapers aright, Mr.| 3. told the Commissioners a very difâ€" ferent story. He did not then allege that " the woman had tempted him," but on the contrary made the admission that of his own motion he had divulged to her the contents of the , and moreover th-lboind,awh'qwritton them or part of them out, and THE MeDOWALLâ€"BOBTHWICK DIFâ€" | FiOULTY. 127 ; grand total, 634. During the year there were 131 operations performed. But perhaps the most interesting part of the report is that of the Surgeon, and the sgm-uc. as taken from the registers kept at the Intirmary. Tbe number of patients under treatment during the year ending 30th September, 1875, was 634, being an increase of nearly 19 per cent! over the previous year. Of the total number of 634 patients, 507 were eye, and I27 ear cases ; 76 were inâ€" and 508 outâ€" patients. Of the outâ€"patients, 464 were from the. City of Toronto, 59 from the County of York, 27 from other counties in the Provincge of Ontario; and 8 were {rom other ¢ountries, including immi= grauts, foreignets, and aliens, Of the total 43 patients, 370 were males (216 boys and single men ; 135 married men, 19 widowers), and 264 were females (127 girls and spinsters, 102 married women and 35 widows.) ?hey' were natives of the folâ€" lowing countries:â€"Canada, 191; Engâ€" land, 235; Ireland, 131 ; Sootlard, 27 ; United States, 19 ; Continental Europe, 10. The Iustitution was upened in May, 1876, as a dispensary only, and for the three years previous to the opening of the hospital department in 1870, there were 411 patients under treatment, and from that date to the end of the present year there were 2,217 intern and extern patients, making a total of 2628 patients who received gnu‘:iwus treatment up to 3Uth September, 1875. The receipts for the year amounted to the sum of $3,660â€" 06, and the disbursement to $3,16902, leaving a balance of $491 04.

Dsar Sir,â€"â€"Again I have| to ask your kind permission to reply to a letter from Mr. McDowall, which appears in the issue of your paper on the 12th inst., although it is not without direful misgivings as to my probable fate if anything Imay say shoul1 cause the serenity of that gentleâ€" man‘s temper to give way. But, as I put my hand to the plough, I cannot very well turn back without justifying myself. In his communication he sgys 1 made an As to Mr. McDowall‘s opinion of what Mr. Borthwick‘s advice would have been, I can only say he was right in his con jecture, that I had not sonsulted him (Mr. Borthwick), therefore | am unable to answer as to what it would be. I did not consider it necessary to consult Mr. Borthwick, as I knew that anything Mr. McDowall could say would not affect Mr. Borthwick, as [ think Mr. McDowall has unburthened himself of all his " charges‘" against that gentleman. I dismiss this subject by thanking you for your courtesy in allowing me to explain myself, and as to Mr. Mc%)owul, I say, Requiescat in pace. Very truly yours, " attempt to discuss the matter in a fair and gentlemanly spirit," ut failed to carry out my intention. I will proceed upon the same principle mow, and enâ€" deavour, if possible, to carry it through. In referring to a statement of mine (the truth of which he admits) that he has been repeatedly charged with cruelty to bis pupils, he says :â€"* Any one at all ac quainted with school affairs knows that when a complaint is once made against a teacher, some people take a peculiar deâ€" light in following up the first complaint by making others, no matter how trivial, so that they may have an opportunity of persecuting him." _ This argument is not~‘at all logical, when the coms plaints bave been made by different parties â€" at â€" different â€" times, Surely no one would send their children to sthool with the intention that the teacher would use them with sufficient cruelty to warrant the parents making a charge against the teacher for persecuâ€" tions sake. â€" He goes on to say that nearly all the male teachers had toll him they had exceeded him, and were exceeding hinm, in the inflict.ous of corparal punish: ment. Well, then, | s:y, in that case, the parents and uid ainus of Ottawa should petition the scho> » Board (or wh ever the authority is vested in) to aboli& corgonl punishment in our schools al gether, and thereby prevent the children from being the victims of every irascible pedagogue who may happen to wield the ferrule. Take away the authority to inâ€" flict corporal punishment, and you also erect an insurmountable barrier against persecution of the teachers. _ O E. those charges it he hai been consulted before hand." 1 fanc, he would have said, "let the slvejpins dors lie, the least said about them u> bet.er.‘"‘ This being Mr. MceDowall‘s supposivion, it is a wonder he did not tuink of it before " throwing down the gauntlet,‘"‘ as it were, by his letter of the previous evening in the Cifiâ€" zen. ‘By that letter he. as I would underâ€" stand it, threw the subject open for public discussion, therefore if he finds he has been too roughly handled and attacked, he has ouly himself to blame for it. In the whole affair, Mr. McDowall ap to wish to ‘be allowed to be " jus;:.n' ury and executioner," all in himself. W{Iioh is not in accordance with our sense of fair play. _ â€" Ne He therefore must have workedIvery diligently to find out what happened four years previously. What was the strong incentive that inspired such diligence in discovering those irregularities ? No. 2. " It is understood the Inâ€"pector underâ€" took to reprove Mr. McDowall for his cruel conduct to the child. ‘T. W. M.‘ may have understuod so, but most asâ€" suredly nothing of the kind took place. There is no truth in this statement whatâ€" ever." So Mr. McDowall says now, but hear what Mr MoDowall said in a letter to the Free Press, on November 9th: "I was led to believe that Mr. Borthwick was encouraging Mr. Jarvis in his charge by his cnlli:gemo out of my room on the morning r the charges were made, and informing me that he had inquired into the case, and believin, I had: made a great mistake in whn? had done, had determined to separate the two divisions of my class until after the investigation.‘ Query Which state ment is the true one? They are both Mr. McDowali‘s _ This also answers what Mr. McDowall numbere l "3," for I understand had Mr. Borthwick not taken the stand he did in the Jarvis case, Mr. McDowall would have withdrawn all his charges, and thereby become * an accessory to a gross offence.‘" In regard to No. "4," he says the charges referred _ to were made at | the same time as the others but not stated * specifically>" _ Why were they not stated specifically ?"‘ When Mr. Mcsowdl says ot them himself, in a letter to the chairâ€" man of the School Management Com mittee on Degember 9th :â€"* the charges certainly have to do with Rev. Mr. Bothâ€" wick‘s moral character, and it would have been competent on their proof for the Chief Superintendent to cancel the Inâ€" ?echt’- certificate licensing him as a ity or County Inspector or Examiner. (This latter object seems to have been the end and aim of Mr. McDowall since first formulating the oh.r%o-.) He ‘admits be made a seventh on November 9th, if he was aware of those facts, on the 2nd November they being the most serious why did he not forward them with the others ?" Agsin he says, " Mr. Borthwick will not t.hu\fi his friend for referring to TB0LI tflhelntifiiaiatrenrts. ~ dbind bonds, it lpr-rl' that the issue of $1,900,â€" 000 in bonds cost the $538,385â€"rather an exlnvngrar:t bmgonge, At present the State asury is unable to meet promptly any other demands than interâ€" est on the public debt and the curent u?xtdimn on account of pubhc _ Mr. McDowall, with his wonderful "organ of number," proceeds to numerâ€" ically {class certain sentences which he culled from my w:mmunicnion of the 10th. No. l is " Why did he allow them to accumulate for five hjeau 7?" He exâ€" plains that by saying has only known Mr. Menzies, who has just published a valuable work on forest trees in England, says that lightning never strikes dead trees, but always selects the strongest, and those full of sap. It is well worth knowing that the ivy often acts as a lightning conductor. > Mr. Borthwick for two years, and he only became aware of the irrogularities six months ago. . _ Phed® THE MeD)WALL â€" BORTHWICK .0 CHARNVES.| ‘ THE TIMES, OTTAWA, FRIDAY.

Martens tuen spoke to Rodgers, who treated him very cavalierly, and, finally, Martens ordered him to keeog out of his place, This Rodgers declin to do, and after: an appeal to Rodgers‘s commanding officer, which availed noth. ing, Maitens made a complaint to the Fire Commissioners, and fiodgerl was transferred Mr. Martens went out early last evenâ€" ing, and on returning home at 5:30 met Rodgers coming out of the parlor which is beyond the bedroom, and in the rear of the %r:muu. Martens, incensed at findâ€" ing Rodgors there, asked him what he was doing, and Rodgers, who was p.lrlt‘lz intoxicated, laughed, and said he been inspecting a stovepipe that was out of order Mrs. Martens, who had come out of the parlor, laughed at her husband, w..o sujdenly produced a revolver. Rod: gers ducked and attempted to get out of the store, but just as he aponmf the door Martens fired and struck him in the back of the hoal. As Rodgers reached the street he stumbled and fell, and as he was geiting up Martens fired twice at gl:i chased him across the street, and fired two more shots. Rodgers fell again, Martens, believing he had killed placed the Â¥intol to his right temple shot himself through his brain. IThe members of the hook aund ladder company witnessed the shoot‘ng, and cared for their comrade, who, at first, was believed to be aying. Marten‘s body was carried across to his store and laid out in the rear room.
