Daniel Garri.s(m Brinton, ethnologist, bom in 

 Chester County, Pa.. May 13, 1837. He was 

 graduated at Yale in 1858 and at the .Tefterson 

 Medical College in 1861, after which he spent a 

 year in Europe in study and in travel. On his 

 return he entei'ed the army, in August, 1862, as 

 acting assistant surgeon. In February of the 

 following year hi' was commissioned surgeon 

 and served as surgeoiiiu-chief of the second 

 division, eleventli corps. He was present at the 

 battles of Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, and 

 other engagements, and was appointed medical 

 director of his corps in October, 1863. In conae- 

 (luence of a sunstroke received soon after the 

 battle of Oettysburg he was disiiualified for 

 active service, and in the autumn of that year he 

 became superintendent of hospitals at Quincy 

 and Springfield, 111,, until August, 1865, when, 

 the civil war liaving closed, he was brevetted 

 lieutenant colonel and discharged. He then 

 settled iu Pliiladelphia, where he became editor 

 of " The Medical and Surgical Reporter, " and 

 also of the quarterly "Compendium of Medical 

 Science." Dr. Brinton has likewise been a 

 constant contributor to other medical. journals, 

 chiefly on (juestions of public medicine and 

 hygiene, and has edited several voliuues on 

 therapeutics and diagnosis, es])ecially the pop- 

 ular series known as "Xapheyss Modern Ther- 

 ajieutics," which has jiassed through many 

 editions. In the medical controversies of the 

 day, he has always taken the position that med- 

 ical science should be based on the results of 

 clinical observation rather than on physiological 

 experiments. He has become prominent as a 

 student and a writer on American ethnology, 

 his work in this direction beginning while he 

 was a student in college. The winter of 1856-'57, 

 sj>ent in Florida, supplied him with material for 

 his lirst published book on the subject. In 18.'!4 

 he was appointed professor of ethnology and 

 archiPology in the Academy of Nat ural Sciences, 

 Philadelphia. For some years he has been jtres- 

 identof the Numismatic and Antiquarian Soci- 

 ety of Philadelphia, and in 1886 he was elected 

 vice-president of the American Association for 

 the Advancement of Science, to i)reside over 

 the section on anthropology. During the same 

 j'ear he was awarded the medal of the " Soclete 

 Americaine do France" for his " numerous and 

 learned works on American ethnology," being 

 the first native of the United States that has 

 been so honored. In 1885 the American pub- 

 lishers of the ■■ Iconograi)hic Eucy<dopiedia ' 

 requested him to edit the first volume, to con- 

 tribute to it the articles on '■Anthropology" 

 .ind "Ethnology,' and to revise that on " Eth- 

 uograhy,"by Professor Gerland, of Strpasbr.rg. 

 He also contributed to the seccunl volume of the 

 same work .an essay (m the ' ' Prehistoric Ar<-li;e- 

 ology of both Hemispheres." Dr. Brinton has 

 establislu^d a library and publishing hou.se of 

 aboriginal American literature, for the purpose
