The possibility of distinguishing the
blood oorpuscles Of different kinds OF
mammalia, especially of some of the
domesticated animals, from those of
man has been questioned by some of the
best European microscopists.T Their sizes
are similar, and the changes Of form
supposed to be produced in drying have
been asserted to be insurmountable OBJ
stacles in the way of inquiry. DR.. j. G.
Richardson, OF this city, has recently
made careful investigation of the sub
ject with improved powers, and has
reached the conclusion that there is no
difficulty in the way of determining the
corpuscles of many of the higher man.
mails from each other and from man.
They are in general smaller than those
of man, hence their shrinkage renders
them less, instead Of more, like human
blood corpuscles. Human c0rpuscles
average 1.3 430 OF an inoh, those of the
OK 1.4882, and those of a sheep 1.6 952
inch, while those of a pig, deer, cat,
horse and goat are all so much smaller
that even the ordinary minimum size OF
the human red disc, as. computed In his
Investigations, that the Doctor says:
"We are now able, by the aid of high
powers Of the microscope, and under Ia
vorable circumstances, to possibly dis
tinguish stains produced by human
blood from those caused by the blood of
any one of the animals just enumerated,
and this even after lapse of five years,
at least. from the date of their-primary
production" In order further to test
the accuracy of these conclusions, speci-
mems of dried blood of several mammals
were selected, without the knowledge Of
DIR. Richardson, and were sent to him
for determination. On examination OF
the microscope they were all properly
named by him.

TIE BATrLE OF THE GENERALS.

THE BATTLE OF THE GENERALS.
During the war Generals Grant and
Sherman seemed to work together in the
honorable harmony of high-minded SOL
diers. Neither was jealous Of thaother.
Neither allowed his friends to presume
upon any rivalry or envy toward the
other. But now the issue is joined, at
least, between Gen. Sherman and the
flatterers of Gen. Grant. II having been
claimed that Gen. Grant was entitled to
the credit of planning and ordering the
march to the sea, while Gen. Sherman
only conducted the expedition, the latter
found it necessary to vindicate his claim
in that behalf. 1t ID not to be supposed
that Gen. Sherman's "Memoirs" were
written for this special purpose. He had
from the first intended to leave the re cord
of his military life for the benefit Of the
historian.
The "March to the Sea" was neces-
sary part of his experience, and he has
FULLY set forth the facts on which his
claim is based as the originator
as well as the executor of the
famous advance. 1t is said that
these "Memoirs" have created great
commotion at Washington among the
sycophants of the President, and that he
is urged to hasten up compilation of
his own memoirs in order to vindicate
his own right and title to the immortal
fame of the "March to the Sea-"
Gen. Sherman says that "Gen. Grant
has never, in my opinion, thought or
said so''-to-wit: that he planned the
march. If this is the fact, 1t is probable
that he never will think or say SO, but
cheerfully concede to Gen. Sherman all
the credit that is his due. Two biog-
raphers OF Gen. Grant have claimed ev-
erything for him.
Gen. Badeau, who was continuously
on Grants staff, says that he frequently
explained to his staff his plan Tor fight
ing his way to Atlanta and then cutting
loose with the army for either Mobile or
Savannah. He also says that when
Grant left the Western army to take the
general command SIT was his intention
to return to Chattanooga, and, while he
retained command of all the armies, to
lead in person those which moved to-
ward the sea-" 30, also, Mr.. Charles
A. Dana, Assistant Secretary of War,
and member of Gen. Grants military
family, clearly says that the whole move
ment to the sea was one OF Grants
grandest conceptions.
Under these circumstances it became
necessary for General Sherman to tell
what he knew of this matter. He says
that the project was all his own; that
General Grant did not give his consent
to the march until after repeated solici-
tations. At first he opposed it, being
anxious for Sherman to attack General
Hood. But for Sherman's protest the
orders of Grant would have left Savan-
nah in the hands of the rebels. Toprove
his assertions, General Sherman gives
numerous letters and dispatches.
Should the issue be fairly joined be-
tween the two distinguished personages
the battle of the Generals will be lively
and exciting. 1t is evident, however,
that General Sherman has no idea that
General Grant will dispute his claim to
the "grandest military conception OF
the war;"

1HE very successful CenConnlal lea

bell, offered at the annual meeting of
the Commission in Philadelphia last
week. These reports are indeed highly
encouraging and speak well for the un-
Nring vigilance and business capacity
nf the Committee. The report shows
! that, through the liberal appropriations
on the part of the Government, the en-
ergetic labors of the Committee and
Rub-committees, and the hearty re-
S2onses Of the people, the financial
basis Of the enterprise has been
made doubly strong, and says that
EVEN should the further aid expected
from Government for current expenses
not be granted it is believed that among
the people the full sum will be raised.

IN interest, both at home and abroad, has
