Blood Stains in Murder Trials.
' Our readers, says the Plnladelphia'ZctZsKr
aut have uotied in the reports of the trial
of Gottlieb H'illiawa ior murder, thai one
of the witnesses was minutely examined up
on the subject of 'the blood stains found up
on bis clothes and upon the razor found uear
ded body of the murdered woman.
The object of this examination was to ascer
tain whether the blood upon the razor and
Hood upon the clothes of Williams were
the same sort ot blood, and, if possible, to
determine whether the one was that of ahu
cio beimr, and the other the blood or an
ninul. Many persons have doubtless won
dered how such things can be ascertained ;
but a considerable approach to certainty can
be made upon such questions by applying
the facilities afforded by modern science.
The blood found in animals, including the
human race in the animal kingdom, is main
!v ot two kinds red blood and white blood.
Tha former is common to all vertebratei an
ianls, or those having backbones, while
white blood is found in some of the lower
orders of animals, such as the crustaceans
cr shell-fish. The red blood of the higher
orders of animals, including man, gets its
red tiut from certain minute particles that
are suspended in the fluid, and are called
"corpuscles' by scientific men. These are
mall circular objects, shaped somewhat like
common wafer, though not quite so flat.
Ia different animals these red corpuscles are
very different in size, and the difference can
be readily detected by the microscope, and
SNurately measured by an instrument kuown
t the micrometer. A microscopic examin
a:iou and measurement were made from the
tutorials that produced the stains found on
the razor referred to and the clothes of
Gottlieb Williams, and the witness who
itade the examination, and who was an ex
pert in that department of science, declared
them to be blood stains, and that the blood
as the same both on the razor and the
clothes.
It is much easier to make such examina
tions whilst the blood is yet fresh than it is
fer it has become dry and hard. When
the blood has been drawn for some time, the
corpuscles ot which we have spoken, adhere
together, with their broad sides united, just
pennies or other coins are put up in rolls,
ni, in fact, hive the appearance of such
rolls of coin. From the examination of the
ijod of animals ot various species, it has
peen found that these corpuscles vary much
in size. That is, that while the average
'ie is always the sam'e in any one kind of
Mimal, it will vary from that of other kinds.
'0 that if portions of the blood freshly
drawn from a man, a cat, a bird, and a frog
re presented to a physiologist accustomed
to their examination under the microscope,
hi would be enabled to point out the blood
which belonged to each from, the size of the
orpucles. , , .,
. or the.5 reasons, in case of murder, the
ned blood or blood stains found on persons
cfiarged with murder .have been submitted
eiarnination of experts, to determine
whether the stains so found upon the clothes
or other objects were caused by human blood
?J t?fe.,D'0O,(l of" ordinary animals. But,says
n- Miles Edwards, in his elaborate work up
on Physiology, the deformation of the glob
ulet renders such observations very difficult ;
nd in order that confidence should be plaecM
in the results obtained, many precautions
thould be taken. It would therefore appear
j the examination should be made by one
tcorouchly acquainted aud practiced in re
r?nes of the kind ; and the testimony
?rw then should be received and examinwi
ith the greatest caution. ;

' The Irishman's Cat. .
Patilalony, .better known by the. name
of Father; Pat, on returning from work one
evening, was met at the gate by Biddy, his
better-halt, in a nigh state ot excitement.
, "PatVsays she, ''there's a strange cat
in the cabin.". . . , '
"Cast her out, thin ; don't be botherin'
me about the baste. "
"Faix an' I've been strivin' to do that for
the wather of tin minutes past, but she is
beyond my reach, behind the big red chest
in the corner. Will yez be afther helpin
me dhrive her out, Pat ?"
"To be sure I will ; bad luck to the con
sate she has for me house. ; Show her to me,
Biddy, till I tache her the respect that's due
to the man in his own house '-to be takin'
possession without 'so much as byyer lave
the thafe o' the world!"
Now,. Pat had a special antipathy to cats,
and never let pass an opportunity to kill one.
This he resolved to do in the present case,
and instantly formed a plan for the purpose.
Perceiving but one way of egress for the an
imal, he says to Biddy :
"Ilev yez iver a male bag in the house,
me darlint?"
"Divil a one is there, Pat Yez took it
to the mill with yez, to bring chips, this
mornin'." . ,
"Faix an' I did, and there it is yit, thin.
An' hev yez nothin at all at all in the house
that will tie up like a bag, Biddy?"
"Troth, an I have, Pat there's me Sun
day petticoat ye can draw the sthrings close
at the top an' sure it will be better for not'
lettin' the cat laviu' ye."
"Biddy, darlint, ye' re a jewel ; just be af
ther bringin it to me at wanst."
Biddy brought the garment, and sure
enough it made a good substitute for a bag.
Pat declared at a glance that it was illegant.
So, holding it close against the edge of the
chest, he took a look behind and saw a pair
of eyes glaring at him.
"An' it's there ye are, ye divil? Be out
o' that, now, bad luck to yez, ye thavin'
vagabone. Bedad an' ye won't lave at all
with perlite axin' ycrself will bate the pigs
intirely. Biddy, have yez any hot wather '' '
"Sure, I've the full of a tay kittle all a
bilin', Pat."
"Be afther castin' the matter of a quart
thin behind the chest, an' we'll see how the
baste minds the like o' that."
"Ilowld close, thin, here goes the steamin'
hot wather." Sosaying, dash went the wa
ter, and oat came the animal into Pat's trap.
"Arrah, be the howly poker, I have him
now, Biddy," says Pat. "It's nine lives ye
have, ye baste ? Well, now, be axin' me
pardon for all the thavin' you've been doin'
in me house, or it's the nine lives will not
save ye. Biddy, saze howld o' the poker,
and whilst I shoulder the bag, jist whack
daylights out o' the haythen divil intirely."
Pat threw the bundle over his shoulder
and Biddy struck about three blows to the
tuue of St. Patrick's day in the morning
when she suddenly stopped.
"What smells so quair, Pat? Sure it's
takin me breath away wid the power of it.
Och, murther, Pat ! it's the divil ye have in
the sack!"
"Bate him, thin bate the horns off!"
"I'm faintin'," said Biddy ; "cast him
off o' ye, Pat!" .
"Och, murther! murther ! Biddy Malo
ney, what iiave ye done ?" Ye've went an'
mistaken a horrible pole cat for a harruiu
less tame cat !"
"Pat, for the love o' God, if ye' re conve
nient to the door unclose it, for I'm perish
ed intirely. Oh, Biddy Maloney, that iver
you should have left ould Ireland to be
smothered and murthered in this way !"
"Faix, the little villain bates the divil
himself; he's ruined me house and kilt Bid
dy, and put me out o' cousate wid me own
self!"
By dint of washing and scouring and air
ing, and the burial of Biddy's best petticoat
under the ground for a space of time.things
were at at length set to rights again. But
not a little recrimination took place be
tween them on the occasion, and neither ev
er forgot the expulsion from the cabin of
Biddy s "strange cat."
An Ixcident of Fort Fisher. A per
son who was in Fort Fisher during the bom
bardment, tells the following story in an En
glish magazine : "Oh! the aeony of despair
to see ball and shell falling harmless from
those turrets ot iron, or rolling like pellets
along the low decks, while the gallant de
fenders of Fort Fisher were falling in sheaves
within a fortification which would, four years

'a work, as Porter says, 'stronger than any
thing Sebastopol could boast of ' One day
a happy shot from the fort succeeded in
finding its way into a weak spot of a two
turreted monitor; a piece ot iron evidently
was turned up, and jammed the tum-t.

thrown out to slav the two bold Federals ;
but no one bit them, and they worked on
calmly until General Whiting generously in

So the iron was cut away."

Judge tie Tree by its Traits.
Gen. Wade Hanrpton, in the course of
Lis recent able and clever address to the
Till ill ...
.oiaoKs assembled at Columbia, o. U, says:
"I do not tell you to trust to professions
of friendship alone, whether they come
lrom the1 Southern manor the. Northern.
But wbat I ask you to dor what I have the
right to ask of you, is that, as we profess to
be your friends, you will give us the oppor
tunity of showing by our actions whether wc
are. sincere or not. If we deceive you, then
turn to the North, and see if you can find
better friends there. I have no fears of the
result; for with us not only does humanity
dictate kind treatment, honest dealing, just
laws for the colored population, but self-interest
demands from us tho same course.
A stronger prejudice has always existed at
the North against your people than here,
and it exists still. A curious instance of
this prejudice came under my own observa
tion some years ago in Philadelphia. Pass
ing through the city, I had with me two
servants, for whom full fare was charged
on the railroad; but the ticket agent told
me that they weuld not be allowed to ride in
the same car with myself, as the people there
'did not like to ride with negroes.' 'But,'
said I, 'you make 'me pay full price for
them, and one of them is the nurse of my
children.' 'That makes no difference,' he
replied ; 'you can't take them into the car.'
I told him that I had paid their fare ; that
1 thought them good enough to ride with
me, and therefore quite good enough to ride
with his fellow-citizens, and that they should
get into my car. So I brought them in aud
kept them there."
This is excellent and just. We thank
Gen. Hampton for his manly, pungent re
buke of Northern infidelity to Northern
principles. It was richly deserved, and will
do good.
And now we ask him to state explicitly
to the next meeting of negroes he addresses
that, since he visited Philadelphia, an act
has been passed by the Legislature of Penn
sylvania which compels every railroad to
carry every sober, decent person who may
seek a passage, irrespective of color, "with
out partiality and without hypocrisy;" and
that this act passed by a strict party vote
every Democrat doing his utmost to defeat
it. Will Gen. Hampton be thus candid ?
Let us wait and see. Tribune.
A Femixi.ve Phenomenon. The New
York Eveninn Gazette bslvsz A trustworthy
gentleman gives us an account of an extra
ordinary illness ot a young woman, a iuiss
Winsor, in Providence, Rhode Island. Miss
W. had been confined to her bed tor several
months, and had not partaken of sufficient
nourishment to keep her alive if she had
been iu a normal condition. Yet her facul
ties have become strangely acute, and she
seems to be endowed with a species of sec
ond si,.'ht. When the phy.iieian, Dr. Ira
BarTow, calls on her, t-he can tell tue num
ber vt visits he has made, the number of
the houses of his patients, and describe ac
curately their complaints. The clock hav
ing been removed from her chamber, she
was enabled to determine at any hour the
exact time of day or night, and she would
describe the color, size and marks of the
doctor's horse, and the hue and the text ire
of the linings jf his carriage. She compos
ed a poem which she called the "Sea Ser
pent," one-half of each line in Latin and
the rest iu English, which was pronounced
by the Professors of Brown University pure
Latin, although she had never the least in
struction in the language. She also draws
finely without having taken lessons, and
does other extraordinary things not to be
accounted for by any of the known laws of
temperament, medicine or science. While
asleep,her right arm is constantly in motiou,
though it is perfectly powerless when she
is awake. A number of the physicians and
savans of Providence are deeply interested
in the case of Miss Winsor, and are endeav
oring to solve the mystery of her seeming
supernatural powers.
. A Centckv Behind. Delaware, though
now scarcely one of the Southern States, is
as far behind the age in spirit and feeling
as South Carolina herself. According to the
Wilmington Commercial, at New Castle,
within thirty-five miles of Philadelphia,
there is, at least three times a year, active
and public use of the whipping post and
Sillory, pursuant to the laws of the State,
'ot only are colored men lashed but colored
women: and not only they, but white peo
ple of both sexes, too. The Commercial
says "this spectacle is enjoyed not a!one at
Now fastle. but at Georgetown, in Sussex
county, within sight ot the residence of
Mr. Saulsbury, a Jenator oi tne uniteu
States. And not only there, but at Dover,
the capital of the State.'' In that town,
where the law-makers of Delaware sit and
deliderate, they may almost look -out upon
the whipping post and see the.faU ot the
lash, while the cries of the unfortunate
wretches might penetrate to the ears of the
worshippers in the Christian churches in
that town." ;
