Mr.. CIeveIand's Gift

Richmond, Va, Aug. 27.-The
gift of $1,000 which Mr.. Cleveland
has just sent Hon. VIM. L. Wilson,
of the Washington and Lee Univor.
sity, for the benefit of the university,
with the request that the name of the
donor shall not be made known, it is
quite certain comes from the ex-
President himself.
MIR. Cleveland has for some time
past manifested no little interest in
this institution of learning, over
which General Robert E. Lee 80 long
presided. He was, it is quite certain,
largely instrumental in ex Postmas-
ter General Wilson's accepting its
presidency. Mr.. Cleveland's idea
was that in this position Mr.. Wilson
would be afforded field of useful
ness to the young men of the coun.
try, and especially those of the South,
which no other position could give

would be helpful; but where this ad-
vantage is not open to tho teacher
let him study improved methods

To MY Friend Mays at Richiands.

We We're talking of the circulation
OF blood in mammals few days ago,
and now if Mr.. Editor will give mo
space in his valuable paper, L will
give a few facts.
The circulation of blood in man as
taught in our public schools is very
well understood, therefore we will
not speak of it.
In the warm blooded animals
mammals and birds--the course Of
tho blood is essentially tho same as
i'll man, for in all these animals, the
heart possesses four distinct cavities
In birds tho heart is usually of n
very large size, as compared with
the bulk of the body. In man l.160
DR. Clendinning.
In The class of reptiles there is
not complete double circulation, II
mixture of arterial and venous blood
being sent both to the lungs and to
the general system. The heart con.
sists of two auricles and ono ven.
tricle.
In the class OF fishes the circulat.
ing apparatus is far simpler than in
reptiles. The heart possesses only
two cavities, an auriclo and ven.
tricle, aud is traversed solely by
venous blood; heEcc il is analogous
to the right side of the mammalian
heart.
We will notice the circulation in
the inyertobrate animal:
In the mollusca, we find rearts OF
varying complexity, usually of one
or two Guricles, and ono ventricle;
but in all cases the auricle or auricles
receive aerated blood from the res.
piratory organs, and pass it to the
strongly muscular ventricle, which
propels it over the body. In some
of the ascidians and in salpa, the
following remarkable phenomenon
occurs: The heart which is extreme.
ly simple, and of course without
valves, at definite intervals (of about
twenty minutes) reverses the direct
ion of its current. Before The heart
changes the direction of it's contract
ions it remains still for q short time,
and the blood-currents in the body
are thus slackened in their course
before they receive an impulse in the
opposite direction. The vessels ell.
tering and leaving the heart, thus
act alternately rs an aorta and a
vena cava. Therefore n turtle surely
has heart.

Mr.. ]. F. Leger, the Haitian Inininter,
was seen and asked as to the truth OF Tile
report He said it was news to him. Hs.
had received telegroms from Haiti Oh Sat
urGay, Informing him that quiet reigned
on the island. The government and the
masses are In perfect accord. and, SO far
as he knows, there is no cause for a revolt.
Up to a late hour this AFTERNOON there wa,
no news OF the reported rebellion in Haiti
Secretiry Sherman, who is in his office
today and looking remarkably Well after hi;
recent attack, said that no intelligence
Of the rumcred uprising had been COM
munioated to the State Department.
No Information relating to it has been
bulletined from any other office at the
State. War, and Navy building.
There was a report about week ago
that ten German ships were in sight of the
Haitian shores.
This fact was communicated to the State
Department hy Minister Leger. but he was
assured tina. tile vesselG were only German
training ships.
Or the following day there We're reports
that the population OF Port au Prince wer.
in state Of mind bordering on political
frenzy, anc. th, opinion was expressed that
advantage OF the situation might lie taken
by the enemies OF President Sam Of Haiti,
TO inCite revolt.
That movement, however, disappeared
with the news cabled from here by Minister
Lcger. 1t is believed now that the report
has been revived without any further basis
