Book Description

Excerpt from American Annals of the Deaf and Dumb, Vol. 5 MY attention has been, by various circumstances, recently drawn to the subject set forth in the heading of this paper; and I have taken pains to procure from the Census Office such Tables as could be furnished, from the returns of the last Census, respecting the deaf and dumb. Some of these Tables, so far as I know, have not yet been made public, and though by no means as full and complete as we could Wish, yet. By comparison with the results of European enu merations, and with the returns of the Census of 1830 and 1840, some conclusions can be formed, not without interest and value, to those interested in the deaf and dumb.
