A remarl-nhle family reported from the New York IiisfUution for the Deaf and Dumb. — The 

 particulars of this family, as gleaned from the 1854 report of the New York Institution, are shown 

 in the above diagram {Fig. G): As the descent is in the feniale line, this genealogical table could 

 not have been made had it not been for the fact that the New York report gives the names of the 

 husbands and wives of some of the pu))ils.
