The great difference between Washington
and the statesmen of the present day was no.

hour in useless defamation, not moment in
invective or abuse they, in many cases, rot
ten in personal vices, shameless in corruption,
engaged in bar-room chickering's, using the pis-
to and bowie knife in pladiatorial struggles
which should make their constituents blush in
crimson for their disgrace.
Washington left TO his country two sacred
leeacirs-hs Farewell Address, and his dying
example in Iiberating his slaves. His name,
yet honored aud revered welded a mighty In
fluencc for the good Of his country; and the
press and the pulpit-the two guardians of The
nation should hold up his life 10 guard against
all dangers which may menace us.

Tur MARvELs OF CnEMIsTRY.-In reading the
reports Of the New-York and the bingham muir
dcls, nc one can fail Of being impressed with the
positivcness and perfection Of the testimony. In
the New York case, all the blood found in diff
ferent parts of the house has been disposed d. The
marks upon the dagger were Of iron rust.-Ccrtan
stains of blood 70 ind in the garnet and upon GER
tain articles Of apparel were menstrual. Stains
found on newspaper in Eckcl's secretary, and oil
the butcher knife from Stanton street, were from
blood, Lut mol Or. BurdelIs flood. Thus the
marks Of DR.. Burdell's blood were narrowed down
to the stains ON the door Of his room, the walls
leading down stairs, the front doors, the oilcloh,
&c. These were the only blcod-marks Of the muir
der and all conjecture arising from the other marks
is shut off, The microscope was hardly less eful
In this examination than the laboratory; in fact 1t
was an essential auxiliary.
There is probably popular curiosity to know
how these things determined. Its 10y the char
acter Of the blood gohules, AS exhibited under the
microscope. The true blood gobule possesses shape
and peculiartics Of color aud constitution. Thus,
| by comparing the true globue with that which has
been changed by one Of the processes Of nature, II
marked difference is seen. Thus, comparing one
mans blood with TINT IF another man, difference
Of size and characteristics is discernable. Chem
! istry determines whether n substance be blood OF
not The microscope tells what kind OF blood it is
| In the bingham case. DR.. Jackson took the fes-
cal matter found in the murdered mans intestnes,
and got from it 10 7-l0 grains of the sulphuret Of
arsenic, or arsenous acid.-Portions Of this were
reduced to metallic arsenic, and made too from what
is called the arsenical mirror, and then an expert
ment made, proving that it was metallic arse
mic, aud not antimouy.--This is the whole story
and it is as rigidly exact in all its details as thu
demonstration Of II mathematical problem. II w
could analyte human mind in this way, and de
ternne On the guilt-marks, it would save goOt
deal of trouble.
