are the best that have been issued Of late years
from the English press. They present to the

Gentlemcn;-In reply to your note of yester
day, requesting my opinion OF the series OF Anat
omical Plates OF DR.. Quain and Mr.. Wilson,
am glad 10 be able 10 state, that it is, in my
opinion, the most splendid work Of the kind that
has appeared. lis authors are practsed and ex-
celent anatomsts, and not less informed in the
various relations which that important depart.
ment bears to medical science in general. The
plates, in the original, are faithful representa-.
lions Of the human frame as exposed OH dssec.
ton, and are beautifully delineated.
Such a work, executed throughout with the
same care as the photographic plates which you
exhibited 10 me, and under the supervision Of so
able an anatomist as Prof. Pancoast, | should
esteem cheap and most valuable addition to
our stock of anatomical works; and cannot
doubt, that it would be eagerly sought after by
the student; as well as by tue practitioner to
refresh his memory on important occasions.

THE STEAMSHIP CALEDONIA.

While so much anxiety is felt respecting the fate
of the steamship Caledonia, readily grasp at any
reason which can furnish hope, that she has not
shared the destiny Of the President. That may
do all in power to moderate the apprehensons of
such OF our readers as are peculiarly interested in
the safety of that vessel subon the following pa
ragraph which appeared in the Intelligencer of yes
terday morning.
10 calm the fears entertained by those who have
friends on board of this vessel the following is stated
as being believed to be the of her detention
Capt MORGAN, of the packet II. Hudson, arrived at
New York, says that during an experience OF more
than one hundred passages the Atlantic, he
yer experienced such tremendous gales from the west
ward as between the 9th and the l4th February
The Caledonia was then 10 days out. Now, the
average passage is about 200 miles per "a hours she
could with such gales hardly have made 100 per day.
The passage out being Is days. she would then have
consumed two-thrds of her fuel and have made only
one-third of the distance. Consequently it would
have been madness to proceed for she then would
barely have fuel enough to carry her back to Eng
land. This would take her from to days So
that she would reach Liverpool about Goth or Dist

this or that name under which to range them
selves, but there is an interest paramount to
all other, which is the interest OF the country,
and which seems to be totally disregaried in the
present squabble for supremacy
Our foreign relations indicate the possibility,
if not probability, of war and, it is admitted
on all hands that We are totally unprepared Tor
such an event; and yet, notwithstanding all
that has been urged by the Secretaries OF War and
OF the Navy, not single thing has been done,
during session of more than three months, to
put the country in posture of defence. There
are at present several suggestions from the differ
ent Departments in possession of Congress
ing for the means to carry on the public services
and to correct the abuses under which the coun-
try labors but it does not suit that body to at
tend to such matters lest they might interfere
with the game Of President-makng, which
seems to absorb all of its attention.
The Gulf of Mexico, for instance, is the
key to our Southern and Western country, and
if foreign feet should obtain control in that
quarter, the whole trade of the Mississippi val
ley must be destroyed or put at the mercy of an
enemy. The Navy Department asks that means
be put at its disposal for the purpose of guard
trifing matters when compared to party su
premdcy, and must be put aside until 1t can be
ascertained in favor Of what candidate for the
Presidency the members of this or that State
may be. The Secretary of War points out
where defences are required for our inland from
tier, and asks that the homes of our brethren of
the remote interior shall be protected from the to-
mahawk and scalping knife of the merciless In
dian. Some persons might perhaps think that
these matters are Of sufficient importance to
command the attention of our legislators; but it
would seem they are light as feather in their
estimation when weighed against the rejection
Of some place-man whose nomin alton may con-
f1ict with the success of some other aspirant for
Office whose influence it may be desirable to Sc
cure in favor Of this or of that candidate for the
Chief Magistracy. We ask Of Congress, nay i,
more, we ask of an abused and neglected coun-
try, if these things not true and, if true, are
they not disgraceful. We neither know, nor
choose to know individuals in matters Of this
kind, but if sooner or later the partakers in such
outrageous abuses of confidence on the part
of the servants of the people, are not visited
with the shame and condemnation they so rich
y merit at the hands of generous and con-
fding, but deceived constituency, then will we
confess that we know nothing Of the temper of
the American People.

MARYLAND LEGISLATURES.

Mr. STARR presented the following order in the
Maryland House of Delegates on Monday which
was read and adopted
Ordered, that the cashiers Of the several banks
in the city OF Baltimore forthwith report to this House
particular statement showing the sums discounted
for, or loaned, to each director from the ls day of
January, 1841, to the Goth day of February, IS42,
and the sums now due from each director the num-
Der OF directors in each bank, exclusive of State d.
rectors, and the sums due from each State d.
rector and to state whether it is the usage of
the banks to grant certain amounts of loans or dis
counts to each director matter of usage or cour-
tesy, and to what amount. And whether directors
have not priority or preference over all others in
obtaining loans or discounts, and whether or not d.
rectors are required to pay their notes. when they be-
come due, with the same punctuality and strictness
as other persons required to do, who are not d.
rectors. And whether discounts are ever made with
the notes of foreign banks loans made with such
notes; and also, whether brokers or dealers in ex-
change receive DISCOUNTS and to what amount within
the last six months"

ABUSE. &c.

We are almost tempted to extract from the
rabid Clay presses, and more especially from
those south Of Mason and Dixon's l;ne all the
pieces of scurrility and abuse which they daily
lavish on the President. We know nothing
which could recommend us more strongly at
this time to certain choice spirits in and about
Congress than the adoption of such course.
Two things, however, prevent it-frst it would
occupy the whole of our paper, and secondly,
it might be esteemed as an improper interfe-
renee with the vocation of certain members who
in future would be hard put to it for supply of
epithets in their public harangues. What a
splendid chaplet Of tropes and figures. What
numberless gems of wit would we not be able
to present to the refined taste of our readers !;
extract from the same presses appertainlng to
the Secretaries of State, and War, and Navy,
our paper would be eagerly sought for by all the
hosts OF Billingsgate as the most delectable
sheet in the world. We might omit the num-
berless repetitons of the epithets of traitor-im-
becile-hypocrite, as applicable to the President,
contenting ourselves with some 10000 inser-
tons of those delectable phrases and adopt in
place of greater volume designation of the
terms according to new readings, as for ex-
ample:
7'raitor-One who when President gives the
same Interpretation to the Constitution as ne
had done in all his past life.
Im,becile-One who denying to Congress the
po,oer to create Bank, cannot agree with a
great light Of the age, that the powers given to
a bank, in any way can effect the question of
the right to create.
Hypocrite-One who encounters the bitterest
denunciations of aspirants for the Presidency
and their mnions, sooner than violate his oath
of office
To this we might append other words with
their definitions, quoting high authorities of
great photographers as for example:
Consistency-One who makes a speech
against the constitutional power to charter a
bank at one time, and in favor of it another
Clay
Inconsistency-On whose anxiety for con-
suggestions in the morning, which subsequent
reflection caused him to surrender before night
Ewing, Archer, Bell, Mangum, Arnold, &c.
&c.
Honorable Feeling-To abstain from visit
ing college friend after 25 years of subsequent
intimacy, because run,or ascribed to him
course of unbecoming conduct, without going
to that friend for any explanation of his conduct
Archer.
To be Dishonored-To visit house which
is visited by the best and purest men in the
country-Archer.
These and many other words with the def
nltlons appended to them by modern politco-
photographers might be added, but let these for
the present suffice.
