Mr. Evrror:— By notice received from Mr. J. Scott Wut. ton, Principal of the Instiution, in Ilalifax, for Deaf and Dumb Scholars, I learn that that gentleman will be in Sun:merside, on Monday next, the Gth inst. lle will be ac- companied by several of the Mutes. It is Mr. Ilutton’s desire to place his work before the public of this Island, and if possible, create a deeper interest in that work in the minds of all philanthropic men. With this design, he will lecture in Strong’s Hall, in our tewn, on Monday night, and will be as- sisted in his task of interesting the audience, by his young deaf and dumb companions. Those of your readers who may have witness- ed the remsrkably quick mental powers of the former scholars who visited our Island,and their astonishing performances with signs,and ow the blackboarl, will scarcely need an invitation to be present atthe exhibition ot the new students, that willbe with Mr, Lut- ton on this occasion.

He makes no charge for enterance to his exhibitions, buthe takes up a collection at their end, . I sincerely hope and trust that our town will favour this good man in his untiring Inbours; and thata large audience, and collection, on Monday night, will be the manner selected for wishing him God speed, Knowing Mr. Editor, your willingness | to assist, I need not apologize for trespassing on your space, Very Truly, Affent S.
