A BHOET-TAU! FOB FObBO PEOPW. lit Yon fire doubtless aware that Greenwich may be Tcached both by railway and steamer ; and if you were there n few years ago* you might have 1 remarked, near the steamboat pier, the hero of ■Uiia narrative. : tie . waßlhen a -pale, alight youth of sixteen, good-looking, but with : the usual expression of countenauoo—half re signation; half anxiety—which belongs ;• to the blind. Ho. wasquilo blind; and had been so front birth.:' Jlo had jfor about two years played tho fiddlo daily at the cornet of a certain street | Every morning he was brought fo his post by an old woman with whom ho lodged,. or sometimes by ulittie girl; her grandchild, who nlsobrought his dinner, at ono o’clock, and fetched him ,hotne : to tea' at Bis. Do never asked for money ; out at his feet lay n sranll basket, into which half , ptneo poured pretty freely. There was a quiet . uncomplaining' manner about him; ho was so neat and clean, that in the neighborhood ho Was a favorite, nil fit rangers admired him. But what ■ was curions and pleasant to 6CO, was tlio respect,: . shown by ail tho sailors, .watermen,. and pld.| college-men -Though he could. not sco. they al .ways touched their hats to him, and said ‘ Sir,’ when they wished him good . morning or, good evening; Butthen blind Walter was tho son of a captain in tho royal navy, who had left-him. without a father at six years old. Ilehod had a mother, but sho is wlmt is rarely found in this world; as ldnto say you nil know—a had tooth er; and that is the worst thing that can fall to the lot ofa child. SUo wns not what tho world calls wickcd, hot sho waa so really. , Sho neg leotcil her blind boy; sho let him piok up hia education how ho could; nnd but for tho kind r ness of an (old musician, who took, a faney.to hiraj and when his mother waß out fetohed him to hie bouse, ho would have known nothing. Tho musician was n poor old Italian, n gen . tleman in habits and feelings; and ho taught the boy to speak Italian, to bo tidy, clean, and to play tho violin. Walter became-passionately fond of music, which when his mother madc.tho discovery, rather warmed her-feelings towards - tho child. She had him more neatly dressed then before and took him wherever she went as a prodigy. Waltor, who was an intelligent and plooslng lad, was universally liked, He was petted and taken notice of, nnd soon acquired tho manners of tho society to which he was now : Introduced. Tho importance of early training ami education, which perhaps just now may not :■ be plcksiog to’some of you, was demonstrated - In: the case of-Blind Walter. When ho fell into, other-circumstances ho never loßt his graceful manners; ■ his- soft, tone of voice—tho surest marks of good breeding and good company; and he gained largely by it. - But bis fall was sudden, and unexpected;, his mother, tho portionless, daughter of poor, proud people of good family, whom Walter’s -father had married for her beauty; died deeply in debt; and the poor hoy found himself alone in tho world with nothing, but his: violin, savod from the creditors with much difficulty. They had been two years in Greenwich when this happened; and the father - having been much liked- by his crew—some of whom were now in; Greenwioh Hospital—these old pensioners- held council. They would havo - liked to Send the boy, now their child, to sea, hut Ills: blindness was n serious. drawback; they' then advised him to try bis fortune with the violin, nnd Waltor, who had no other frionds— . his father having been an orphan, protected by one now dead—followed their kind advice. His first day’s trial was wondrous in its results ;-nll the college-men came by quietly, without saying awordand threw in their halfpence; and Walter Arnott - thanked Gad in his heart, while, ho thought gratefully of the poor Italian musician, ; sometime dead, who had been tho instrument of Providence In giving him the means of earning his livelihood. - He took a neat, clean, bat cheap room inthe house of nn aged widow with an or phan grandchild, a girl of thirteen years,old; and after paying his way, giving little presents ■ to Alice; and keeping himself in decent clothes and plena linen; put the rest in the Savings’ Bank in the name of a clerk in this Hospital; who regularly gave him twopenoe every week out of affection to tho memory of his father, .-.Scarce-, ly any of those - : who had been friends, of Mrs. Amott’s ever noticed Walter, except to give him sixpence in a patronising way, but Walter wanted . not their nid. Ho was independent—ho was happy. Ue seldom went out in the He would get Alice to read to him books which a friend purchased for him—chiefly naval histories and tales, and lives of celebrated musicians nnd emperors. : He did not, however, forgot what Was useful to her, and .thein education went on togelhor with wonderful success. Alice was soon passionatclysfond of reading; nudes no oc cupation is at tho sometime bo pleasing ondusc ful, if you avoid bad books—tho worst poison on earth—their evenings were delightful. Neither 1 Walter neglect his Italian; ho pronounced spoke it well. He bought o grammer,dic oary, and some Italian hooks, and by dint of irseverence, soon trained Alice to study with m. Tho old grandmother left them to \heir own mrso; she was willing that Walter should bo nne tho husband - of her child; though ho sol?, inly and firmly declared that lie would novor. a burden to any women, if one could, be id; generous enough to marry tho blind icr. 'wo yeavshad Walter was between itccn ondninetecn while Alice was a pretty girl fifteen. Tho blind youth had learned to-read ‘write. He had made; remarkable progress, in music* and began to.bo qßked to go to,- s and oven concerts. Ho lmd a beantifol col ion of violins, once the idols of the poor ian, and this was 'greatly in his- favor One ernoon he was playing some exquisite piece of ;alian muflia to n silent Crowd, : when a youth of boat his own nge.iatlic dress of a midshipman, tushed forward nnd stood with a blank and os ■ushed air, - goring at him. Presently Walter ,hed, and the crowd after showering half enoo upon him moved away; bat the midship man remained. . - r . ~- “Walter Arnottl’! exclaimed he, m tones of tep astonishment. “ Ah, Frank Presoott,” cried tho. blind, youth with great ■ satisfaction; “is that yon? How kind to’notioe me now?" ■ • - r « Noticeyou now 1 - AVhat 1, the sonof the for mer captain of onr ship ! Good heaven 1 this is - shameful —this is dreadful J” -■ «* Jfot at all, Xam very happy; I could,not be more so,” said Walter gently. •‘ Nonsense, yon could and- shall. Jnst pat your fiddlo under yoar arm, and come and .dine, with mo at tho Greyhound. No; denial...l must tell you my story, and-you must tell.tno, yours.” . - Walter could not resist such hearty kindness ; and after bargaining thatthoy should call at his home, that he might leave his fiddle, and have thus aw '-excuse for explaining; his departure from his post, they walked arm-in-arm up the town.- A hearty greeting did tho middy got from every sailor and invalid ho met. Every . one was pleased to see- the blind fiddler taken notice of, and Alice wns quite proud when, hahd ing her his violin, Walter told her where he was i going, The middy ordered a very good dinner,;] after which ho informed the young musician that ho had an uncle in Greenwich, whose daugh- 1 ter he was very much in love with, that being. | poor,-with very small prospeqjs, he conocolcd bis affeotion from his undo, who wished his consin Gertrude to marry some one her equal in point of fortune. To Gertrnde he had not spoken disUnetly-ho was too young for that; bathe wassure she responded to his affection. Ho was now, however, about to leave England on a threo yeartf cruise,-and he ws of great uneasiness:; of .mind.. Ho. knewnot whatmight happen in tho interval. He would not write to the young lady, as ho knew she would deoline carrying on a clandestine cor respondence,' and ho loved her the more for her delioaoy. But still ho wanted some friend to •Mve him hows ot her, nnd her news of ium. Blind Walter volunteered to do this by the bam /nf Alice, if he could at any time piok up lntejli eenco of interest But Frank Preßeot had a better plan than that—ho would his get his uncle and cousin to patronize him; next evening there was to bo a quiet, dance, and he must come and _ lay And Walter did so, and the evening was twice as pleasant os it otherwise would havo been. The blind musician entered into tho spir- Unfthe affair, played *slong and as often os they llkeT favorite with the ladies, especially with Gertrnde Prescott; and pleased everybody setnuoh with his ploying, that ho henceforth found his engagement multiply.^ ■ i*ntf that day ho abadoned hm station inthe niayed at evening parties, he gave lessomMmdMl without neglectingWsedacation wdthatof Alice. During the stoy o tSbnmfc eott. tho yonng people were inseparable, the midshipman was delighted with his old acquain tance, and they parted attached friends. _ - ' Blind Walter actually loved Erank, tot noth himkindness was irresistible.- There nrenatqres cannot resist *bo influence of affection, who-will love a person who gives them fl flpWr waSerdValooL was micof those. trasgciMie transferred Ms nffee ftwnfe future without forgetting hfsdimrAHoe.

Miss Proacott waamay dullmniHow spirited, and nothing herhmnbler friend could do oould ronso her. “What is tlie matter ?” naked Alice, earnest-, ly, after vainly endeavoring togctMm witlrhtr Italian lessons. i- “Papainsißtsnpontnyreeoiringlho.tLddresa bs of Mr. Charles Williams He Is going b"ttsk ; him to dinner oh Monday next, What am Ito dot” “ But my.dear Miss Freseott,’! said Alice,iear nestly; “why not avow yonr affections for your cousin Frank ?” 1 : “ Boonuso my father long ago forbade me to think of Frank.

He was fashionably dres sed, hut his emita was ns gentle and sweet os eve. He advanced to tv sofa, took tho hands of his two friends, and sat down between thorn, His story wns.very brief. Seven .lives whioh stood between his father and a baronetcy of £25,- •000 a year had all-lapsed,.-save one, long ago; and about six months previously- the last snrvi-, vor, a descendant of his grandfathor’s eldest 'brother, had died without issno intestate., A week heforo that evening the Solicitor traced Blind Walter as tho next of kin. Ho had kopt his secret untill all was settled, passing off .the Solicitor as a pupil; and this day bo hod been putin possession of bis property, thc jjord Chan cellor having for . tho, three months ho wanted of being of age. “You seem in trouble,” said Sir Walter, whom ho had told his story—for ho always observ ed the slightest difference, in the intonation of voice. Alice, who was overwhelmed at what she had heard, timidly explained. ; “I see only one remedy,” observed tho blind young baronet, after some reflection. : “And what is that FV asked Gertmdo,-, anx ionsly. “You must let mo court you for tho next four months. I havo tbis day—for lom inflnential now—sent Frank his leave of absence for twelve months, begging him to conio home. It : seems I am . indispensable in n certain country whore ministers want to keep their supporters in, so they can refase me nothing. • - . "Good Sir Walter!” exclaimed Gertrude and -Alice. ... “Blind Walter is still with you ! But listen! Until Frank returns, I wiU keep off nil Bnitors. Say nothing, only let ns always bo together— ns three, I mean,” said the quick-carcd young man, os he caught the sound of o little sigh from Alice ;“and your father wiU give mo six months at least to think of it, .

Walter i” cried Alice, sobbing aloud, “I have always loved you dearly, and had-you remained poor, hod always meant to begyou to take mo for . year wife—your gide ; and yon would ; for when mother dies 1 shall bo alono; but now I dare not accept—” ... “You. have ocoepted I’.’ oxolaimcd Gertrude, placing their hands ono in another ; and as Alice could not Bpoak, the betrothal was over. After a fow minutes’ silence,, they discussed their plans, and were in tho midst of them when Mr.' Preßcott entered hurriedly. ... .. “Sir Walter, lam proud to congratulate you Inm highly honored by your making your first oallhere.” ■ ■.. ; “I have to apologize for. taking tho liberty of coming so unceremoniously. Hours- suited to the musician become, perbapa unsuitable now.” , “Sir Walter, pray consider my house your own,” said Mr. Prescott, warmly, half from gen* nino pleasure at tbo good luck of one liolikcd, as all did, and half from tiie reflection that£2s,- 000 a year, eren- with a blind baronet, was a very splended prospect for bis daughter. From that day all suitors withdrew from be fore the young baronet. Every body looked upon tbo affair os settled. Miss Gertrude and be, with Alice. for a companion, drove out to* gather; and what other result could bo expected?. Hut not one word did any of the two say that could be construed into deceit. Mr. Prescott allowed matters to take their course; not oven sounding Gertrude onthepoint be had at heart. One moraing Sir Walter called formally upon Mr. Prescott, and, demanded the : honor of an interview. The'.' gentleman bowed - his: young friend into the drawing-room, and his heart beat ing rather more quickly thanusual, he sat down after handing Walter to a chair. “Whntmy dear Sir Walter,” said Mr. Prescott blandly, “can I do for yon ?” 1 “I come," said Walter, with almost tho. only trace of soaroasm on his facewhioh over appear ed there—“l come to speakof your daughter, .Miss Gertrude.” - , I. ■ “Indeed!” exclaimed Mr.,Prescott,with u very harmless attemptot playing astonishment in his tone.:. ■ ■■■ . ■ ■ ■■ 1 “Ton will bo very much . surprised, my dear sir,” said, blind Walter,, a little timidly, “at what lam going to say.” . . “Perhaps not,” said papa knowingly;, I •faney”^—• • , • . ‘ - : .“You have fancied wrong, Mr; Prescott,” said Walter firmly, “if you have, sapposqdtbat- I lmvo courted,yonn daughter on my account.

From It we learn that tho ave rage number of inmatea for the year 1851 has been 820, viz: In tho white department, IG2 boys and 50 girls; and in tho colored depart ment, 82 boys and 35 girls. The number of boys indentured during tho year was 170; and tho indenturing committee continno to receive from persons to whom former inmates have been indented, gratifying oridence of the beneficial effects of tho training of the institution. Two deaths only occurred during tho year. Tho cm: ploymcnts of tho inmates continue the same as thn year previous, viz: tho boys intho white de portment being engaged in tho manufacture of razor-strops and cano chair seats, and in book binding; and those in the colored department in tho manufacture of umbrella furniture; while tho girls in both departments make and mend their own clothing and that of tho boys; cook and wash, and perform other household duties. Tho total earnings of both departments of tits institution during tho year were $7,733 91, nnd tho current expenditures hove been $25,875 69.

Among those wbosaro reputed to have laid, their love at Ms feet are two ladies of rank, Bus sian birth, and allied to Polish Counts—an or der of nobility, by the bye, with which Paris al ' ways abounds. These ladies, in mid-winter, de porting their northern homes, and soeking -their South and Tropics, in the favor of the President 'flow to Paris and wore presented by tho Prinoo : Boauvean, to his Serenity and Sogacity, “my un cle’s nephew.” Their beauty dazzled tho Elyses, : and' upon the first interview with tho host, oiie of ; them, said without prefaoo—nor is there any men tion of blushes—“ Monseigneur, I hove _o sin ■ oero paaslonfor you!”“A la AVaneat«?” de manded the gracious Potentate, smiling. “NO, ialajiiuse," replied the CountOßawith neigh of fire. - i M.

The officer requested two cords in blank; ond when asked for what pur pose, frankly replied—for police agents, Tho - lady was terrrfied and refused m toto. Ho then requested to' seo her list of invitations, and af ter looking it over,-he told her tho two blank cards wore-unnecessary, as sbe had already her self invited six persons in the pay of the police.
