I A large runiber of prominent citizens of Penn sylvania recently tendered ex-President Buch ! anao a public dinner, as an ''expression ot ibeir continued respect and admiration " To this proffered honor Mr Buchanan made the follow ing nsponse : Wheatland, March 23, 18G7. Gentlemen : I have received, with grateful emotions, your very kind invitation to a public dinner you propose to give me, in the city of Philadelphia, on any day I may indicate. Noth ing, I cat: assure you, could afford me greater pleasure than to meet you around the festive board, and with you renew the pleasant memo ries of long past years. I deny myself this gratification, only in defer ence to what I consider the wise example of my Democratic predecessors in the office of PresU dent. After having administered the most ex alted office which the country could bestow, they- deemed it expedient to remain in the re tirement of private life, and whilst holding their own opinions on the political questions of the day, they left the public discussion of them to gentlemen, like yourselves, Etill ou the busy theatre of active hie. if any other reason were required for my self denial on this occasion, 1 might refer you to my advanced age, of which you remind me, by stating that I am now the last survivor of "American statesmen of the olden time, the only living contemporary of Webster and Clay, and Benton and Calhoun." In pus:irij, permit me to say, jou might have justly addeo to these distingui.-htd names that of Silas Wright. He was a statesman who, for sound practical wisdom, f( r I'ar-sceing sugacity, aud for lucid and con vincing argument, had no superior in the Senate, even at the period when it was the greatest deliberative body in the world. You have my cordial thanks for your opinion "that no respoo sitility for the years of blood ad sorrow we have endured rests on me, who tried, in a mo ment of terrible exigency, to do my duty under the Constitution " Proceeding, as this does, f rom a lage number of iny fellow-citizens, equal in intelligence, character and patriotism to any similar number of gentlemen in the State, may I not, with much confidence, indulge the hope that you but anticipate the general sentiment of future times ? Under this impression, and always firmly rely ing on Divine Providence, I have borne with a tranquil and contented spirit all the harsh criti cisms which have been published on my official conduct throughout the last unhappy years Assuming, as you do, "the immediate future of the country to be full of peril," you ask me "for words of counsel, of consolation, aud, if possible, of hope." Cuu.-i.sfently with my self imposed reticence, I may say to you : Adhere steadiiy to the Constitution of your country ; exert all your power and influence in disseminating and en forcing its general principles, by means of the pros, public speeches, private conversations, and in every other honorable manner, and em ploy the stiine untiling energy in exposing and condemning every dcpaiture from its precepts Never despair, for the time will surely come when these shall triumph and control the ad ministration of the government Ies:"ect fullv James Buchanan.

From ibe Charleston Evening News. GEN. SICKLES ADDRESS TO THE COLORED, PEOPLE. The torch-light procession of Tuesday night, which was followed. by an immeLse concourse of colored people, assembled in front of Mj or Gen eral D. E. Sickles quarter, to offer him the complimeut of a serenade. Gen. Sickles' ap pearance was the signal for the most enthusia6tic demonstrations. lie said : "Mj friends, I thank you for your visit. Al though unexpected, it is none the less gratify ing. It is your privilege, not mine, to take part as a partisan in the political action of the day; my duty is to see that every citizen of North and South Carolina has a full and fair opportunity to vote as his judgment and conscience may dictate. This duty I shall endeavor to perform. The colored race in this country have gained praise for their admirable conduct , during the war and pending the recent agitation of their civil and political enfranchisement. In my De partment, I can truly bear testimony to your patient lorbearance. ben severely provoked to retaliate cruel acts of violence and humilia tion, j'ou have borne yourselves with unfalteting confidence; the day of your deliverance was not for distant. (Cheers.) Let me enjoin upon you all, in this hour of your success, persever ance in well doing. You are now citizens of the llepublic. Remember that the strength of the nation lies in the virtue, industry, loyalty and courage of its citizens. You must try and vin dicate the hopes of your friends and repel the forebodings of the skeptical by proving your selves worthy of the privileges to which vou have been admitted. (Applause ) Whenever any large addition has been made to the voters of a State, the same apprehensions have been expressed that arc now heard in reference to yourselves. Those already enfranchised are easily alarmed at any considerable change in the established order of things. So far, in this country, expe rience has shown that Union, Liberty and power ate safe in the hands of those who earn their bread by the sweat of their brows. (Applause.) None love the land of their birth more fondly; none will defend it with more constancy and valor than those whose labor make up the sum of a nation's wealth. (Applause ) So loDg as the destinies of this country are in the hands of those whose homes are made sacred by justice, whose liberties depe.ud on the courage with which they are maintained the old flag may defy all enemies whether from within or without. (Great applause.) It would be difficult under the most favorable circumstances for any race of men to engage, as you have now to do, in the most interesting political events, without being deeply moved by their importance and novelty. Let me advise you as a friend, and as one not without expe lience in public affairs, to preserve at all times the utmost moderation of language, temper aud conduct. Avoid anything like-violence, impa tience or indecorum. Do not give even your adversaries just occai':m to complain of the le.i?-t disrespect shown to them in your discussions, private or public. And beware of those who would endeavor to excite animosities between the white and the black races. The prosperity of the South, the welfare of the country are intimately associated with the harmony and good feeling which should exist between the people of both races at the South. Whatever seriously impairs the interests of one race, must result injuriously to the other. In telligence, culture, capital, land, are not less essential than labor; and yet without labor these can have no solid and enduring foundation. You have already shown your appreciation of these advantages by the eagerness with which you have employed the opportunities lately given you to educate yourselves It will not be long before the white race in the South will see how deeply they are interested in the education, industry, thrift and progress of their colored population In this mutual dependence lies the security of all. Abundant time and opportunity will be af forded, and ample notice will he given, of all the successive steps to be tukeo in the organization of the State Governments within my command It will not be necessary, nor can it be otherwise than injurious to yourselves, for you to neglect your regular employment and associations to at tend to political affairs I promise you that, without any such sacrifice on your part, every man in the Carolina?, entitled to a voice in the decision of the great question to be paed upon under my supervision, shall have a fair chance to act his part without Ipt or hindrance from any one. 3Iy friends, I wish you all good night.

New Orleans, March 18, 1SG7. f In your paper of yesterday you have expressed ! a desire to hear the views of several gentlemen j upon the political condition of the'eountry. I find my name mentioned among the list, and ! proceed without hesitation to respond. As I , have never applied myself to politics, I cannot j claim to 6peak to the wise statesmen of the j country who are devoting their energies to the J solution of the problem hich agitates the public ; mind I can only speak the plain, honest con victions of a soldier. It can hardly bo neces sary, at this late day, to enter into a discussion of matters that are usually brought up in arguing upon the proposed plan for reconstructing the government. Indeed, I think that many of them are not pertinent to the question. The striking feature, and th one that our people should keep in view, is that we are a conquered people. Recognizing this fact fairly and squarely, there is but. one course left the wise men to pursue, and that is to accept the terms that are now offered us by the conquerors. There can be no discredit to a conquered people for accepting the conditions offered by their con querors, nor is there any occasion for a feeling of humiliation. We made an honest, and I hope I may say a creditable fight, but we have lost. Let us come forward, then, and accept the ends involved in the struggle. Our people earnestly desire that the constitutional government shall be re-established, and the only means to accom plish this is to comply with the requirements of the recent Congressional legislation. It is said by some that Coogress will not receive us even after we have complied with their conditions, but I can find no sufficient reason for entertain ing this proposition for a moment. I cannot admit that the representative men of a great nation could make such a pledge in bad faith. Admitting, however, that there is such a mental reservation, can that be- any excuse for us in failing to discharge our du'y ? Let us accept the terms, as we are in duty bound to do, and if there is a lack of good faith kt it be upon others. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, James Longstreet. BLOOD STAINS in MURDER TRIALS The readers of the Ledger must have noticed in the reports of the trial of Gottlieb Williams for murder, that one of the witnesses was mi nutely examined upon the subject of th 11kh1 stains f..und upon his-clthes and ujon the razor found near the dead body of the murdered woman. The object of this examination was to ascertain whether the blood upon the razor and the blood upon the clothes of Williams were the same sort of blood, and, if possible, to determine whether the one wa that of a human being, and the other the blood of animal. Many persons have doubt less wondered how Mteli things can be ascertained; but a considerable approach to certainty can be made upon such questions by applying the facil ities afforded by modern science. The blood found in animals (including the human race in thf animal kingdom) is mainly of two kinds red blood and white blood. 'Ihe former is com mon to all vertibrated animals or those having back-bones, while white blood is found in some of the lower orders of animals, stuh as the crusta ceans or shellfish. The red blood of the higher orders of animals, including man, gets its red tint from certain minute particles that are suspended in the fluid at d are called "corpuscles" by scien tific men. These are small eircu'ar objects, shaped somewhat like a common wafer, though not quite so flat. Indifferent animals these red copuscles are very different in size, and the dif ference can be readily detected by the microscope, and accurately measured by an instrument kt.own as the micrometer. A microscopic examination and measurement were made from ihe materials that produced the stains found on the razor re ferred to and the clothes of Gottlieb "Williams, and the witness who made the examination, and who was an expert in that depirtment of science, declared them lo be blood stains, and that the blood was the same both on the razor and the clothes. It is much easier to make such examinations whilst the blood is yet fresh than it is after it has become dry ami hard When the blood has been drawn for some time, the corpuscles of which we have spoken adhere together, with their broad sides united, just as renn es or other coins are put up in rolls; and, in fact, have the appear ance of such rolls of coin. F rom the examination of the blood of animals of various species it lias been found that these corpuscles vary very much in size. That i, that while the average size is always the same in any one kind of animal, it will vary from that of other kinds. So that if portions of the blood freshly drawn from a man, ? cat, a bird and a frog are presented to a phy-siol-'gist accustomed to their examination under the microscope, he would be enabled to point out the blood which belonged lo each, from the 6ize of the corpuscles. For these reasons, in case of murder, the dried blood or blood stains found on persons charged with murder have been submitted to the exami nation of experts, lo determine whether the stain so found upon the clothes or other objects were caused by human blood or the blood of ordinary animals. But says II. Miles Edwards, in his elaborate work up-n physiology, the deformation of the globules renders such olervations very difficult"; and in order that confidence should be placed in the result obtained, many precaution should be takeu. It would therefore appear that the examination should be made by one thoroughly acquainted and practiced in researches of the kind; and the testimony even then should be received and examined with the greatest caution. fhilaiiefjihia Leihjtr. : ATerraont man recently bought twenty six railroad tickets, intending to take bis wife and twenty-four children to the West.

The fo lowing narrative from the autobiogra phy of Henry Y Stilling is a beautiful illustra tion of holy trust and confidence in God. Stilliog was an eminent physician in the service of the Grmd Duke of Baden. He died iu the year 1812, and const quently was well known to mauy persons now living. His career .was aa -extraordinary one. Io youth, S illing was extremely poor des titute of the coujinoo comforts and necessaries of life. Alter along season of anxiety and prayer, he felt satisfied that it was the will 0 God that he should go to a University sod pre pare himself for the medical profession. He did not, at first, make choice of a university, but waited for an iutiuution from faia heavenly Father; fur, as he intended to study simply from faith, he would not follow his own will in anything. Three weeks after he had come to this determination, a friend aked him where he intended to go. He replied he did not know. "Oh," said she, 'our neighbor Mr T. is going to Strasburg to spend the winter there; go with him" This touched Stilling's heart; he felt that this was the intimation he had waited for. Meanwhile Mr T. himself entered the room, and was heartily pleaded with the proposition. The whole of his wellare now depended on his be coming a physician,, and for this a thousand dol lars at least were requisite, of which he knew, not in the whole world how to raise a hundred. He nevertheless fixed bis confidence firmly 00 God, and reasoned as follows : ''God begins nothing without terminating it gloriously; now, it is most certainly true that ha alone has or dered my present circumstances entirely with out my co-operation, consequently, it is also most certainly true that he will accomplish everything regarding me iu a manner worthy of himself." Ho smilingly said to hi9 friends, who were as poor as himself, "I wonder from what quarter my Heavenly Father will provide me with money?" When they expressed aox iety, he said, "Believo assuredly that He who was able to feed a thousand people with a little bread still lives, and to him I commit myselC He will certainly find out means. Do not be anxious the Lord will provide." Forty six dollars was all he could raise for his journey. He met unavoidable delay on the way, and while at Frankfort, three days' Tide from Strasburg, he had but a single dollar left. He said nothing of it to- any one, but waited for the assistance of his Heavenly Father. As he walked the street and prayed inwardly to God, he met Mr L , a merchant from his place of residence, who said to him: ' Stilling, what brought yoa here?" I am going to Strasburg to study medicine. 'Where do you get your money to studr with?" I have a rich Father in Heaven." Mr L looked at him steadily and inquired, "How much money have you on hand?" "One dollar." said Stilling. "So," said Mr L. "Well I am one of your Father's stewards," and banded him thirty thr e dollars The fir.-t trial made him so oourageous that I c no longer doubted that God would help bim through everything. He had been but a short time in Strasburg. when his' thirty-three dollars had again been re duced to one, on which account he began again to pray earnestly. Just at this time, one morn ing, his room mate, Mr T , said to him, "Still ing, 1 believe you did not bring much money with you," and offered him thirty dollars in gold, which he accepted as in answer to his prayers. In a few months after this, the time arrived when he must pay the lecturer's fee, ot have his name struck from the list of students.
