Gentlemen:-In reply to your note of yester-
day, requesting my opinion Of the series OF Anat.
omica Plates of DR.. Quain and Mr.. Wilson, |
am glad 10 be able to state, that it is, in my
opinion, the most splendid work Of the kind that
has appeared Its authors are practised and ex-
cellent anatomists, 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 on dssec-
ton, and are beautifully delineated.
Such work, executed throughout with the
same care as the photographic plates which you
exhibited to me, and under the supervision Of so
able an anatomist as Prof. Pancoast, should
esteem a 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 the practitioner, to
refresh his memory on important occasions.

| consider them the most valuable work, upon
the subjects they portray ever offered to the med

ter the demonstration Of the professor Of anatomy,
there remains any doubt upon their minds as to
the precise location or structure of any organ,
it is Immediately removed by view Of Quain'

The only objection to the work is the expense
Of it, costing as it does upwards Of one hundred

You have my best wishes for the success OIL

Gentlemen.--Quain's Anatomical Plates, SO
complete and accurate as they are, would on
this ground alone be strongly recommended to
the medical student and practitioner; TO the
former as guide to the latter as a remembrancer
Of details which are too soon forgotten, and yet
knowledge OF which is often Of vital import
ance. When it is added to these claims on our
notice, that the American edition Of this WORK
which you are bringing out in style Of artistical
execution superior even as far as relates TO the
engraving, to the English Edition, and at price
one. eighth of that Of the original, we may readily
suppose that your liberal expenditure on this
occasion will be met by large and ready sale
Of these truly beautiful plates.

HARD RUN FOR A HERO.

We have always observed, that when the Lo-
cofoco party were in tight place, they were
always reminded Of the 9th of January and the
battle of New Orleans. They remind us of the
stump orator Of the West, who said, that when
ever he was hard run for good solid arguments
for the people, he always brought in plenty Of
!" liberty" :" human rights" GLORIOUS achieve
ments Of our Revolutionary sires," and other
/" ixins" called "heroics," and he had observed
that it never failed to convince.
The harmonious Democracy" being little
shaky or discordant at this time, and somewhat
put to it for good solid arguments in favor of
their candidate, resort to g the heroics" Of the
old man brave" out of which to make little
capital for his little favorite fat pony, who has
been luxuriating for TWO years and half upon
Undertook cabbages.
Cabbages Cabbages!! Well, we must con-
fess there is not much of the "heroic'' in cab
bage, and do not wonder they try some other
tune" But it wont do; little Matty is not the
Hero Of New Orleans, no way you can fix it.

HE LOGICAL ABSTRACTION SoCIETY.-Ihis So
ciety continues to hold its regular meetings al
Metaphysical Hall, corner of X and z streets.
The question whether, in case Of the annexation
of Texas, Sam Houston and John Tyler would be
President OF the new Republic remains unde-
clded. The difficulty in the discussion arose
from the uncertainty as TO which of the two
countries would apply TO the other for the an
nexation, and, until this is known, the question
is to remain in statu quo. We always thought
this discussion premature, if not indicate.
In the course of this debate, collateral ques-
ton was raised upon, viz: if the Acting Presi-
dent should die, and the President pro tenn. OF
Speaker of the House be President? If so, and
the Committee on Elections should decide that
he had no right to his seat in the House of Rep
resentatives, would he be obliged to decamp
from the White House? If so, would Mr.. Rob-
ert Tyler or Mr. Wise be President ad interim !?
These questions gave rise TO an animated dis
cussion by several Virginia gentlemen, in the
course OF which the rules and orders of the House
were frequently appealed to.
COPPER RocK.-We understand that deputa-
ton Of Iowa Indians made an inspection Of this
curiosity few days since, and were highly de-
lighted with it; one Of them went so far, in his
enthusiasm, as to pronounce it the noblest spec-
men OF anonymous gray copper to be found in
the world. The head " brave of the company

THE TWENTY-FIRST RULE.

We are glad to see sound views expressed at
the South in regard to the wellknown Twenty
first Rule of the House of Representatives,
which has done more to spread abolitionism
through the Northern, Eastern, and some Of the
Western States, than slavery itself ever did,
twice over. Why2 Because freemen revolt at
the very appearance of gag or resistance, and
thousands who were no abolitionists have sign
ed abolition petitions just to show Congress that
they were determined not to have the doors of
the National Legislature shut IN their faces. 1t
matters not to them what they petition for they
deem tyranny. They act upon principle i'm
planted in the human breast tell man he
must never pass certain bounds-those of the
State in which he resides, for nstance-and he
will feel like prisoner until he has passed
those bounds, though otherwise he might not
have had the least inclination TO go out Of sight
of his own cottage. Precisely upon this princi-
pie the people at the North have petitioned,
and will continue to petition, Congress in regard
to slavery as long as the 21st rule remains one
Of the Rules of the House. But to the extract
from the New Orleans Tropic:
eve tell the Courier that the 2lst rule is a
violation of one of the dearest rights OF freemen
the right of petition and il is one which the
American people will never tamely surrender.
When the day arrives that Congress can tell the
people what they may or may not petition for,
American liberty will be mockery and freedom
Of speech an empty sound"

perceptible to himself, become somewhat inn
bued with its vindictiveness.
1t is not our purpose to enter into any contro-
versy with the Spectator upon the numerous
statements contained in the article alluded TO-,
because it would require more space than our
limited columns allow us, and because, though
we might show how much The editor has misre-
presented Mr.. Clay unintentionally, no doubt
our remarks would neither reach nor convince
those who advocate the doctrine of Free Trade,
as his will neither reach nor convince friend OF
the present Tariff. Our only purpose is to no
tice the peculiar mildness and good temper
which the writer exhibits 1t is for others to
reply to the following language, and we cap
hardly suppose it will pass unnoliced by "those
whom it may concern"
"a more fragrant instance of Legislative pro-
higacy and treachery never stained the annals of
legislation. The editor is speaking of the pas
sage of the present Tariff act. The murder Of
Fannin, in cold blood, does not exceed it in its
detestable characteristics. And now, there are
men--Southern men South Carolina Nulli6ers-
who can crawl to the foot of this man, and SLAYER
it over with the foul spittle of their gratitude
and admiration He may put on his blandest
smile as he looks down upon them; but if he
does not loathe and scorn them, his corrupt and
oppressive policy has driven from his heart all
its noble and virtuous impulses"

SOUTH CAROLINA AND Mr.. CLAY.

The editor Of the Spectator, generally mild,
tolerant, and courteous, seemed to be thrown
quite off his centre on Tuesday evening, by per-
ceiving that Clay Club had been formed in the
CITY of Charleston, South Carolina, and gives
went to feelings we did not suppose found harbor
in his breast, in language rather more crisp,
tart, and bitter, than usually characterizes the
polished and well-balanced periods of that pa
per. In running down the article headed g Ora
titude to Mr. Clay" we thought we had mis-
taken the paper, and must be reading the coarse
vituperations and vulgar invectives of the Globe
nor could we persuade ourselves this was not
the case, until we again looked at the title of
the paper and read "The Spectator" We can
only account for the tone Of asperity which per-
vadSs the article by supposing the editor had
been reading the Globe with more than usual
attention and interest Of late, and had, imper-

MR.. CLAY'S PROSPECTS.

Truth always comes with more force when
reluctantly made, and by an opponent in favor
of his antagonist. For this reason we take plea
sure in taking the following extracts from edito-
rial articles in the Madisonian. In Monday
number the Editor says:
g There is no virtue in the practice, too usual
among political leaders, Of holding up false prints
to deceive the honest and credIlous masses,
touching the prospects, designs, and relative
strength Of parties. 1t is due to the people that
the truth should be always told. 1t is worse
than idle, therefore-it is criminal-to deny that
the Democratic party at the present moment is
in imminent danger Of a rout similar to that Of
1910.
Henry Clay will come the pledged champion
Of all those ultra notions of the Federal school
against which the Republican phalanx has con-
tended ever since the foundation Of the Republic.
And that he ,pW come, perhaps as the reluctant
choice of the people Of the Union, still as the
preferred alternative of very large majority Of
the people, if Mr.. Van Buren, be his competitor,
we firmly believe"
Again, on Tuesday, the Madsonian says:
"If Nh. Van Buren, could be elected, Mr.. Ben
ton Mould to certainty, for he has more of the
the fire of genius to light up an enthusiasm in
his little finger than the former has in his whole
body.
g Presidents hereafter Presidents
will be made by sho,os The show of 1874 will
excel that Of 1910 as far as 40 excelled the Sec
ond election of Monroe. What show would Mr..
Van Buren, make beside Mr.. Clay2 A fat sheep
to lion -
These truths are uttered in temper and with
. reluctance which show the writer to be no
willing witness, but that his testimony is ,crung
from him. So much the better for us: so much
the more to be relied on.
