that probably few,tofn the European
pubic now remember that there was a
commabder Of the army charged with
theprotection Of the southern capital

his name 10 undyihg glory with the
defense of Richmond. And yet Cen

Abilities that erItiale Vhfm TO no mean

and as he was the first chosen to beat
'backSiIorthern9ipvasion,so ,tin the last
decisive strHggle,whep Sherman had
scattered the army OF, Georgia and was
beginning his famous march to the sea,
it was to johnson again that the con
federnte government turned as the
only bulwarlt of the, Carolinas. A MS
tory from hisown pen, or ashe more
fnodestly styles it himself, a narrative,
of the military operations directed by
this eminent Soldier iii the greatest OF
modern civil wars, cannot but be highly
interesting to- the military Student.
Inla brief introduction Of less than
three lines it is unpretendingly offered
as a contribution of materials for the
.use of the future historian of the war.
TITS written in the tone and spirit we
should expect from one who had borne
himself SO steadily against Tremendous
odds. There is no vain boastipg Of the
lsuperiority of the southern soldiers,
and no idispaMgement Of northern
courage, On the contrary, the general
goes out Of his way on more than one
occasion to bear testimony to the. gal
tantry of the foe, And when writing
In seif defense-for the book is essen
Iiaily a defense of the general, against
the structures passed upon him-Th'
never forgets the dignity that become
his character and antecedents! Attic

Trichina Spiralis.

The recent distressing cases of trichina
spiralis at Flint and South Haven,
Mich, which resulted so fatally, have
been made the subject of a patient and
prolonged investigation by the Medical
Society of Kalamazoo. POst-mOrtcm
examination of the bodies of the victims
was made, and these loathsome para
sites were found in great numbers in
the bodies. The pork and ham were
also examined, and found to be alive
with them. 1t was furthermore ascer-
tanned that in each case ham had been
eaten raw. AS there are numerous
others liable to eat harl in this con-
dition, we commend to them the follow
ing extract from the medical report
Eat no ullcOOked or hdlf-cOOked
hogs flesh. The raw flesh of the hog,
whatever its shape or condition, whether
ham, bacon, or pork, salt or fresh,
smoked or unsmoked, is liable to con-
tain this parasite, full of life and ac-
tivity, that may soon work remediless
mischief in the human body. Bologna
sausage, if pork be in it uncooked, is as
dangerous rs any other form of this
meat. The heat that cooks meat utterly
destroys the life and mischievous power
of these vermin, and no one need fear
any harm if this fact is observed.

Wool.

The Milwaukee journal Of Conn
merce, in an article reviewing the pro-
spective price of wool, thinks the price
will not materially vary from that re-
ceived last year. 1t states that the
United States consumes forty per cent
more wool than it produces, and that,
therefore, the foreign clip will mate
rally vary the price. The Wisconsin
clip will be about the same as last year,
say four million pounds. 1t sums up
the prob abilities thus
l. A short supply all over the world.
2. Enhanced and constantly increas-
ing prices i'll all foreign countries.
3. Absolute scarcity o. wool IL this
country.
On the other side we have
l. Poverty of Eastern manufacturers.
2. Loss of the Western speculative
element which has usually moved the
clip.
Our conclusions are that the clip will
sell early at the opening prices of last
year, and that with the present uncer-
tainty now affecting all trade, there is
little hope for any material change for
the coming year.

Remarkable Explosion.

We learn from the Whitehall On. "
Times particulars of a remarkable ex-
plosion of "a nitro-g lycerine can, show
ing the terrible force of the explosion
David Deyo and his wife are employed
on the New York and Canada Railroad.
He employs several men, all OF whom
live on the boat where the explosion oc-
Cured, opposite Patterson's Landing at
Putnam, last Tuesday. Deyo picked mp
an old can, which he took aboard the
boat. He had succeeded in tearing the
same open, which he intended TO use as
a collar for a stove-pipe hole. he called
to his wife to assist him to hold it down
with both hands, while he, with long
iron chisel, proceeded to cnt hole III
it. Deyo noticed that the can appeared
to be greasy, but gave it little thought.
He had struck several blows, when a
fearful explosion occurred. The greasy
substance on the tin proved TO be nitro
glycerine. Mrs. Deyo was blown into
the lake, while Deyo himself was blown
toward the stern of the boat. Three
young men, Fl. Purple, Font, Tyrell and
Wickes were inside the shanty, and
pieces of the tin went whizzng by them,
having been blown through the boats
partition.
Assistance was Immediately rendered
to Mrs. Deyo. Her clothing was COM
pletely blown off from her body. She
presented horrible sight. The flesh
covering the abdomen was cut open
from point just above the groin to the
left kip-bone, completely exposing the
intestines, leaving a terrible looking
cash. On both arms the flesh was liter
ally dug out on the under side, disclos-
ing the cords and bones. The hands
were shockingly mutilated.
Deyo was found to be badly wounded.
The fatal explosive dug its way into the
feshy thigh of the left leg. The power
full sinews and cords were laid bare
The explosive seemed to tear beneath
the flesh. Deyo's arms were cut on the
under side similar to Mrs. Deyo's. 1t
is evident that the tin was bown into
small pieces, as Deyo's face, lips and
forehead seemed to be cut in pieces.
The wounds look as if they had been
done by small pieces of metal.
The powerful effects of the explosive
are shown on the cabin of the boat
where the tin lay when it exploded. A
hole about six inches in diameter was
made in the roof, which is three inches
in thickness exactly. The board par
tition of the shanty is shattered and rid
died at the point where the explosion
occurred. The chisel that Deyo was
cutting with, which is long one-hall
inch wide strip of steel, was found some
distance from the boat on shore. The
explosion was heard mile away. The
sound was like that of blast. There
was but little of the material on the can
which shows the power of the danger
Gus explosive.

4 Petrifled Body.

The remains of woman, which had
reposed in a grave in the cemetery near
Wheeling, W. Va, for six or eight
years, were recently disinterred in order
to remove them to another place. Much
difficulty was experienced in raising
them, the weight was so excessive. On
opening the coffin the body was found,
from the neck to the feet, to be a per-
feet specimen of petrification. The
form was full and sound; the feet,
which were incased in CATERS, filled
them as completely as living subject,
and the hands and arms were plump
and hard as a rock. The clothing was
in an excellent state of preservation
the fabric proving, when tested, to be
quite strong. The head, however, had
suffered the decay incident to the period
of time il had lain in the ground.
None of the bodies which rested in
close proximity to this had undergone
q similar change.

the cost of these works has been
81, Ill. 400,0 900. In.the mean time $780,
900, 900 have been annually expended
in charging the accommodations and
increasing the facilities for business of
roads already in operation-in other
words, there have been expended upon
our railroads $500, 900, 900 annually in
the last two years. If We have not ex-
ceeded our means in the construction of
these works, we have pushed this great
interest ont of all proportion to others.
We have only TO stop construction, to
have the equilibrium speedily restored.
The methoL is very simple one. The
earnings of the railroads of the Western
States the past year equaled $l4. 33 per
head of population. The present year,
but for the effect of the recent panic,
they would equal $1C.33 per head and
in 1875, $40 80 per head. This gain is
certain to be made as soon as the coun-
try RECEIVERS from the present prostra-
ton. In.the mean time population is
increasing at the rate of more than
1000, 900 annually. The contribution
of this increase to railroads will add, at
