The Blind of Philadelphia.

The police of Philadelphia have ascertained that there are 352 blind persons in that city. The inquiry was made at the request of the Home Teaching Society and Free Circulating Library for the Blind, a society whose objects are to find out where the blind reside, to send its teacher to instruct them in reading at their homes, and afterward to supply them with a regular exchange of embossed books from its library.
