ANNAPOLIS, Md, March q, 1854.
Great and awful cOmmotion has been Gre
ated in this our usual quiet community by a
letter, which was published in the columns Of
the Clipper of Saturday last over the sigma
ture of Truth" And as the writer dealt hi.
blows right and left, regardless of the conse-
quences, upon those at whom he hurls his
shafts of venom, claim the right to review
them. Truth is powerful and will prevail
when used in its legitimate character, but
when used as cloak by the anonymous cor
respondent to launch the shaft Of SANDER at an
unsuspecting fellow citizen, has no more power
or virtue than the vilest signature, selected
from the vocabulary Of the English language.
The writer first with the assumed gift of the
spirit rapper) opens the heart of respectable
gentleman and finds motives for acts never
committed. Secondly, he attacks an officer Of
the Government for disposing Of his money
and property as he may see most fit and to the
best advantage for the interest Of his family
Thirdly, he makes an accusation against the
late master workmen employed in the Naval
Academy which is literally false, for no two
men can be found who are more faithful than
the late masters carpenter and bricklayer.-
Again Truth" charges the gentleman who
has lately been detached from the Academy
at has ow1 reqnest, with an assumption Of in
dependence not belonging to him or his situs-
ton, and would intimate that because he did
not know his proper place he was detached.
Fortunately for this gentleman, he is too well
known here for any such inuendoes from
Truth" or any one else to be credited The
whole aim and object Of this writer, Mr.
"Truth," seems to be TO curry favor with the
commanding officer of the Naval Academy
But if have learned that officers characte,
correctly, he asks not nor cares not for Mr.
Truths" blarny, but rather that he would
mind his own business and leave the Institu.
ton under his superintendent, without hil
interference q u blheoyss the citizens gensr.

BALTIMORE CORRESPONDENCE,
BALTIMORE, March 23-1OF

OhAAAAoh6s UdICQ LO-1U p. n.
L have just seen recent letter from high
source in Constantinople, which gives some
account of a compliment paid to the Hon.
George p. Marsh, late United States Minister
to the Sublime Porte, on the occasion of his de-
parture for the United States. The American
residents at Constantinople held meeting, and
made him formal address, expressing their
regret at his departure and thanking him for
what he had accomplished in behalf eff their
and his country whilst Minister.
He made handsome reply in return, in
which he spoke in the highest terms of Mr..
John T. Brown, the United States Dragoman
at Constantinople, and said that he was the
business man OF the legation, and that he did
not wish them to give him (Mr Marsh) the
credit for what Mr. Brown had done, and
that without the latter and his experience, his
lthe Minister's) hands would have been tied
He spoke at length, and in the most compli-
mentary terms of Mr.. Brown.
Mr.. Brown lis widely known He received
his appointment from General Jackson, and
has held it through all vicissitudes up to the
present time. His long experience has made
him perfectly familiar with oriental life, man
ners, customs, DC. In case of the pre- sent min
lister withdrawal no man could be found so
admirably fitted to take his place. 1 have no
interest In the matter. but make this sugges.
ton to my friend Franklin Pierce, that he may
profit thereby if disposed, and do the country
q service.
My friend of the Argus says he published
the celebrated speech of Carroll Spence ahead
OF all other contemporaries in this oity-that he
got it from the New York Herald. If so, then.
was mistaken in its having appeared first in
the Sun.
The advices by the steamer Africa, have
quite unsettled our breadstuffs market Flour
went down to-day under the news 25 to 81
cents per Dbl. There was, however, quite an
active movement, and sales in ALL for present
and future delivery, were made of about 10, 900
bbls. at 81 Is. The impression is that higher
figures will be obtained tomorrow
There is nothing in the political character of
the news to discourage those who hope for a
further advance Nor do the real quotations
vary much from present accounts

the fear entertained by some very pious people
that the tendencies of Geology are opposed to

conclusive cogeney, he produced numerous
