HOSPITAL CAR AND THE SANITARY COM
MssT0N.-After every great battle, the COM
passionate heart OF the community has been
shocked at the recital-of the sufferings of the
wounded, while being transported on plat
forms, or in uncovered cars, exposed to heat,
cold, or rain, and to the misery of shftings
and joltings. The most vivid imagination
could not fill the picture with details more
CHASTITY than those familiar to every one who
has been near a battlefield. During the
campaign on the Peninsula, it was as bad as
could be; since that time we have seen grad
ual ameliorati0n, as one Improvement after
another has been adopted.
After the Fredericksburg fight the poor fel-
lows were carried as carefully as possible with
the ordinary means of transportation. But
now, that most efficient friend of the
wounded man, and guardian of his comfort,
the Sanitary Commission has had fitted
up hospital car, which seems to combine
every improvement that can be desired. The
car has been turned over to the Surgeon Gen.
eral who has signifed his approval of the
plan, and has ordered the immediate construc-
tion of three others on the same design
1t resembles in general appearance the or
dinary sleeping car, but the berths are simply
the field stretchers, which are brought in with
their load, and are suspended by strong India
rubber loops, from pegs in thesides of the up
right stanchions.
Thus badly wounded or very sick man
need not be removed from the stretchers in
which he is brought from the field until he ar
rives at the place of destination. The great
advantage of this can hardly be appreciated
except by surgeons. The stretchers are hung
in three tiers, and as their handles overlap, no
room is lost
Thus thirty beds may be suspended in car
ofordnary size. There are also twelve fold
ing chairs provided, which may be set in the
passage way Il frequired, and used for the ac-
comodation of the least feeble. The windows

in the roofopen both ways, 50 as to secure
ample ventilation. A speaking tube conveys
messages from one end, to assistants, at the
other. A complete little cooking apparatus is
fitted up in the usual small apartment in the
corner of the car and there too, is arranged,
with marvellous economy of space, an assort-
ment of every thing likely to be needed for
the nourishment or medicament of the suffer
ers.
This part was arranged by an old sailor,
who knew the value of square inch. There
is a bed also for the surgeon in charge, and
under it drawers for extra clothing. Nor
must we omit the mention of bed OF India
rubber over the springs to deaden every shock;
nor that the trucks can be made to fit road
of any guage. The entire equipment of the
car is so simple, and yet SO complete, and will
accomplish so much at so slight an outlay, that
the country is again put deeply in debt to the
Sanitary Commission. To them alone is due
all the credit of the contrivance, and it will
remain another proof of the untiring zeal of
that most excellent association.
A HEAVY FIRE.-Acting first Asst Engin-
eer John w. Hartupes, of the new iron-clad
steamer Tuscumbia, gives the following state
ment of the manner in which his vessel stood
fire at Grand Gulf:
The engagement lasted five and one halt
hours. The Tuscumba received eighty-two
solid shots, and it is impossible to estimate
the number Of shells that exploded in her.
The upper work is perfect wreck. No man
could have lived on her deck for minute.
1t is believed here that we were undes the
heaviest fire ever known in naval warfare
The rebels concentrated all their fire on us
for at least two hours. More than one-haf the
time during the fight we were not more than
fifty yards ffom the muzzles of thirty guns, and
some ofthese guns one hundred FOUNDER Par
rots, gun which throws projectiles with great
er force than any gun now in use ;but all would
not do. They could not penetrate the iron
sides Of the Tuscumbia. 1t is believed here
that we were under a heavier fire than ever
was known before. not excepting the Keokuk
at Charleston. We received more shots on
our plating than all the other vessels combined.
But our plating proved perfectly invulnerable
against all efforts to penetrate it. There was
one greatsblunder committed in building the
Tuscumbia, and it is in the location of the
magazine. To give you an idea of this will
say that in action the matches of the magazine
are necessarily left open. When the shell ex-
ploded in her turrets. the fire from it burnt
the boy very badly in the face who was sta
toned in the door to pass powder up. This
will be altered before the vessel Is pronounc-
ed fit for action again. You must not think
the Tuscumbia is disabled beyond repair.
