The Smithsonian Inshtute.-Prof.
Agassiz has addressed letter to Mr..
Upham, M. c., in relation to the con.
troversy now raging about the man
agement of the Smithsonian Institu-
te, in which he sustains the course
pursued by Prof. Henry, and the
present Board of Regents, and indir-
ectly condemns the policy advocated
by Mr.. Choote. In the course Of the
letter, he takes the ground that the
Smithsonian Institute Is not strictly
an American Institution, but that it
was designed by its founder ito in
crease and diffuse knowledge among
men" lie also mentions curious
fact bearing upon the present contro-
versy, going to show that the testator
designed that his bequest should be
appropriated to the publication rather
than to the accumulation Of books
lie says that the whole bequest was
originally made to the Royal Society
of London, but afterwards transferred
to the United States because the
Society refused to publish certain
scientific papers submitted to them for
that purpose.
