STARCH GRAsULEs IN HUMAs blood
We learn that an important discovery
has been lately made by the head OF the
microscopic bureau OF the United STATES
Agricultural department at Washington.
Mr.. Thos. Taylor. by thorough series
OF experiments with the microscope,
has been able TO detect animal starch IN
considerable quantities in the human
blood. Every drop Of which he mas
tested exhibited, when treated with sui
phuric acid, more or less granules OF oine
colored starch (glycogen), and he THINKS
its presence in the blood must have an
intimate relation to the fermentation OF
the blood in malarious districts, since
starch is convertible into grape sugar
which il fermentable body. Medical
authorities have never been able 10 &C
count for the direct cause Of iermenta
ton Of the blood. The action OF quinine
in chills and fever and other malariou,
diseases, can now be explained, as qul
nine hns long been known as an anti
ferment. Among medical and scientific
men in Washington this announcement
has caused quite furore, and grea
number have called on Mr.. Taylor, an
he has demonstrated the fact to thel
satisfaction by taking blood from thei
several persons and showing them, unde
his powerful instruments, the stare

Once upon time there existed small
town situate upon mountain in a des-

it was said by the wise men who had

silver aud other metals were to be found
in the mountains by those who should
fully explore the same. Men from all

to that town because they believed that
by so doing they would soon become the

was languishing for want of ready money
to defray the expenses created by min

contention between the jewellers OF the
desert and the people in the town so
situate on the mountain. Aud also men
who had left the town in the mountain
and had gone and made homes in the
valleys not far distant. were attacked b,
the native barbarians who inhabited tn

have carefully examined Armory Hall in refer
enoe to its safety for public use. and after such
examination we pronounce the building in onr
opinions entirely safe. The crumbling OF the

caused by slight settling OF the building some

Railroad Accident.

A fearful railroad accident and smash
up occurred on Tuesday last, on che St.
Louis, Kansas City and Northern Rail-
road, about twenty-four miles from St.
Joseph, and four miles from Cover, in
Clinton county. a train of cars run
ming at full speed, broke through q tres
tie work twenty feet in height, and
were piled together in q broken confus-
ed mass on the rocky bottom beneath.
The quick-minded engineer, feeling the
bridge giving away, let on a full head
of steam, ard the locomotive and tender
plunged safely over, thus, doubtless
very greatly lessening the calamitous
results; for had the locomotive went
through, many more deaths and serious
injuries might have resulted from the
steam and fire. The train had aboard
about seventy passcngers-men, women
and children, all unconscious Of danger.
Three of the number were killed, thir-
teen severely injured, (amOng whom
are one or two that will probably
MOI recovery and thirty-two slightly in
jured. We do not observe the names of
any citizens Of Andrew among the pub
lished list of killed or wounded. 4 re-
