The Horse that Sheridan R0fe.

Among the heroes that Port Huroa

Michigan Cavalry. and succeeoed Pail.
Sheridan In the CoioHency Of that IA
nous regiment, though. We believe.
the eagle on his shoulder straps was
displaced before his death by the Gen
erals star While in camp at Graud
Rapids, Captaia Campbell wrote 10
his friend, e. j. Iusee. Esq, OF this
city, requesting him to purchase a
horse that was large, we'll formed, and
capable of great endurance. Mr.. lns-
lee, one day Ia our streets, happened
upon such an animal. the property of
a maa living back of Lakeport, IN this
county, and sfser a careful examlna-
ton, and through tests, purchased
him for S175. Mr.. Ingler describes
to US the animal destined to be so
famous in history, as large well>made
horse, sixteen or sixteen and half
hands high, of powerful frame, very
dark brown, or what some would term
black color, and four years of age. He
was shipped TO Campbell, at Grand
Rapids, who received his purchase
with great satisfaction He rode him
during the earlier years of the war,
and John improved in appearance,
with the good treatment and care he
received. He became q iayorite in
the regiment, and was, indeed, noble
looking steed Gen Sheridan often
expressed a wish to buy him of his
friend Campbell, who, however, re-
fused to sell him. Afterwards, he
presented him to Gen. Sheridan, but

Sheridan rode him in aa engagement
was at the battle Of Boonville, where
the behavior Of the horse under fire
was all that could be desired, From
that time he became his favorite horse
until che ride from Winchester, which
gave to both steed and rider nanes
that will be immortal IN history.

TRANSMISSION or Blood successfully
Performed ON a Young lady.
From the Chicago Post

The readers Of this paper will re-
member the report of an interesting
experiment of transfusion Of blood
into the veins of dog, performed at
Rush Medical College last Wednes-
day by Drs. Freer and Hunt. The
carotid artery of the animal was
severed. and the bloodIalloWed to run
out until the animal was apparently
l.feless. An incision was then made
iu the jugular vein, and the blood
was injected back into the animals
system, with the effect of restoring
him.toIifs.
The account Of this interesting ex-
pertinent given to the Post, was notic-
ed by the friends Of a young lady in
Iowa, who had been for some time
wasting away with disease, supposed
to be consumption, aud they sent to
DR.. Freer to come aud make the ex
pertinent of transiusing blood into
her system. Dr. Hunt, of the Fac
ulty of Rush College, responded to
the call, and found the patient In a
very low condition. He proceeded to
take some sixteen ounces of blood
from the arm Of young brother of
the girl, and injected it into her veins.
The patient went into comatose
condition. and it was found that still
more Of the vital fluid was n cessary.
Another supply was drawn from a
sister of the invalid and Injected, and
finally third supply from anott er
brother. about ten years Of age
thirty six ounces OF warm, living
blood being thus conveyed iuto the
system Of the young woman within a
few hours. The event is not yet de-
termined, though the prospects Of
recovery are very hopeful, if the Eangs
are not too nearly destroyed. II the
disease is only incipient, it is thought
that lie and health will be restored.
This experiment is the only one of
the kind ever attempted 10 the West,
aud IS very rare elsewhere, though it
has been tried with success. The
result in this case will be auxiousIy
looked for, not only By the friends of
the patient, but by the scientific world
generally.

who has just returned from attending

the interest Of the Road as a Director

the interests of the Road, and not
from any encouragement or lack OF

The Reign Of Crime.

The New York Herald thinks that
nothing in the history of ChristiaA
cities-the worst capitals in the worst
ages past-can equal or approach the
dreadful prevalence of crime in that
metropolitan sham BILE:
Already in one month of this
year (says the editorl we have chron-
icled murder or attempted murder
for every day in the month, and not
one of these crimes but seems iDspir-
ed by a spirit of fendish savagery
equal to the worst act men or devils
could conceive" "
What is it, it is asked, that has
given within few years, the reins to
the fury of these numbering wretehes?
1t is their consciousness Of immu-
nifty; their discovery of the enormous
power that they welded 10 our cor
rupt political system, In virtue
Of which power it is impossi.

Nothing, it is said, eau in the least
degree palliate the heiDous offeuses
that have been committed,

Desiring to observe the courtesy
due to our Representative from Frank

en-, we carried this petition to him,
and, ia the most respectful manner,
requested him to present it to the
House of Representa- for Us. He
declined to do so. giving US no other
reason for declining than that his
standing would not allow him to
present such petition for the colored
people. at the same time requesting US
to hand the petition to a member of
the Republican party.
Finding that our ownRepresentative
refused to recognize our sacred rights
of petition, We handed the petition to
the Hon. Geo w. Lyttle, a true Re-
publican member of the house, who
presented it this morning, aecompa-
