LoeatIOn Of the Ball.
lCincinnati Gazette.

DR.. Garnett, who is recognized as one
of the hest physicians Of Washington, but
who is very unfriendly toward DR.. Bliss,
has made tho following statement to the
Sunday Chronicle:
The doctor said he had been waited on
by different parties during the week for
an expression of his views, but had uni
formly refused to give them. At this stage
of tho case, however, he saw no objection,
and submitted to an interview. In an
swer to q request for an explanation OF
the nature of the wound and his opinion
of the chances of an early recovery, the
doctor replied: III have not been able to
discover any satisfactory evidence that
the ball Of tho assassin had penetrated the
liver or abdominal cavity of his victim.
The relative position Of the parties when
the shot was fired would contradict such
conclusion. The line of incidence pursued
by the ball to the point Of impact against
the fractured rib forms, with the line
drawn down from that point to the spine,
an obtuse angle, while from the same
point of impact, q line drawn along the
rib toward the front of the body, would
form. with the same line of incidence, an
acute angle:
Hence it is fair to infer, ceteris paribus,
that the missile would be DETECTED in the
direction Of the spine and not toward the
abdomen, a circumstance, by the way,
DIR. Bliss to the contrary notwithstanding,
to which the president probably owes his
life. This fact, together with the consec"-
tive conditions, both positive and mega.
tive, confirms me in the opinion expressed
on Wednesday last, that no important Or
gan had been wounded, and that the
wound in all probability would prove to
I've one of comparative insignifcance."

A Great college on the Decline.


The size of the freshman class of any
college is fair gauge of the college pop
ularlty at any time. The freshman classes
at the different colleges the present year
arc $50 at Harvard (the largest class ever
entered at this institution ,97 ut Amherst.
50 ut Williams. ESQ at Yale, 20 at Brown,
b; ut Tufts, As academies and IS scicntiiiac
at Dartmouth, and 4 first class Of Sc at
Smiths college. Seven of the 45 aca.lem-
les at Dartmouth are special course men,
leaving but 3S to pursue the regular and!
complete classical course. This is the
smallest class that has entered Dartmouth,
in twenty years with one exception, which
exception was due TO the demand of tic
va: upon our young men. Tie number
is but little, il any, more than half the
average Of freshmen classcs' four or five
years ago. We notice that President
Bartlett is registered ut tho Young's, and
there arc 4 number of Dartmouth men in
Boston who would be glad to have him
appoint time and place where they
might assemble and hear his explanation,
why these things are so.
