We have always endeavored to be guided by the dictates of con science; and now, tri confessing our ains,We hope to, be forgiven for grieving, the secret monitor in our bosom, by, praising what we bad not read- The works of Darwin lay unopened for years in our library. Not long ago, however, opening a vol .urne by accident v a sentence caughtnur attention whieh induced us to peruse a little further, and final, tQA?e tom e acquainted- with a writer who on 11‘ciiiitri mine of curiosities; some as worthless were novel; but many of them strangely beintifal and iotzgreat value. And here we take occasion to intraduce to our readers the author whose name is prefixed to this number. Eassestus D.l4l;flif vrasborn at Elton,Eogland, in the year. 1731. After studying at . St. .Tohn'a College, Cambridge, and taking the degree of doe ior tor` medicine , he established himself as a phy sician at Litehfield, where he married, and resided after the death of his first wife, by whom he had three ions. ,In the year 1781, having again MEM =I 11111 : ..‘ . - - 3 - =EI RIM En IRE El= married; he removed to Derby, where he 'died in the, year 1802, in the 70th year of his age. In perien he was athletic, in habits temperate, and Be had a character for much benevolence. In the biographicalsketch which we find in the Penny Cy clopedia, it is said he published his "Botanic Gerdes'," which:explains the principal phenomena of . vegetation, in 1781; in 1793 his " Zoosomia," oftairrs'of Organic Life; and in 1800, his "Phy. tolegia,"' or Philosophy of Agriculture and Gard ening: .The "Loves of the Plants," which is a part of the Botanic Garden," is a poem which• has been censured for its tinselly language, its eg . .travagant similes; and its fantastical machinery; but, on the other hand, it abounds in passages whiah.have never been excelled for their excellent and forcible description of natural objects in po etical language, and it can by no means be admit ted that where an author's powers are expended upon an illustration of the laws of any point of the' creation, they are applied to mean and iasigni• ficant subjects., It is only where he calls to his aid the fancies of the Rasicratians that he wastes his talent and fatigues the reader. The doctrine of Gnomes, Sylphs,,Nymphs end Salamanders, was thought by Darwin to afford a proper machi nery fotaßotinic poem; as it is probable, that they Weie originally the names of hieroglyphic figures representing the elements, or of Genii pre. sfifingovur their operations. The following lines viilLehiora how ha uses them : nrair Spring advancing calls hn feather'd choir, • And lanes to softer notes her langbieg lyte; Itids her gay hoary on purple pinions move. , And arms her Zephyrs with the shafts of Love :Pleased Gnomes, ascending from their earthly beds, : • Play round her graceful footsteps, as she treads ; Gsy,'Sylph's attendant beat the tragrant air ' On sirinaowieg wings, and weft hergolden hair; Blair Nymphaemergingleavetheir sparkling stream* . And Fiery Forms argils from orient beams ; lilask'd in the 'rose's tap fresh dews they shed, Or breathe celestial nudes round her head." In ZoonoMia " the curious reader will find amidst the singular fancies of Darwin, many velae able truths, which it would be difficult to discover elsewhere. We are aware that tbe work is reject .ad by the medical men of the present day; but because a measure of grain may have some chaff in it, should it on that account be thrown away? His 4. Phytologia " is remarkable also for its upset and ingenious ideas. For instance, he partimititli. insisted upon the - close analogy between plants am( animals, in their functions, showing that the differ . ence between tbo two kingdoms is the necessary consequence of the difference between their wants, necessities and habits of life. He urged with great force, that every bud of a plait' is the seat of Is I separate, and in Some measure independent system, that - plants are therefore, in one sense congeries of individuals living in concert but growing Indepen dendently; finally, he pointed out the analogy be tweenbuds and seeds, shaming that the woody parts of plants is really analogous to the roots of seeds, and produced by tbe adhesion of the de . Breading matter of organization which passes downwards Tram the buds,. But what attracted our attention to the writings _nf Darwin, was the discover*thirthey contained . ':the - ideaa Developement,WhiCh have given so aicch celebrity.tp'ithe xecent'work of Sir Richard ;Vivian, thri "Yettigta of the Natural History • of Citation." c Viether the Vestiges is a treatise upon scientifittruths, or a scientific romance, is is not our present intention to inquire. The norite ions editions which have been published both in England and the United States, prove that it has attracted more than ordinary attention. The style of the Vestiges is remarkable foe great clearness and beauty.; but in that it has no novelty. Strip the work then of the 'osigiaality of its ideas, and what it left to build a scientific reputation upon?

The irregularity of mails has become ercectliegly annoying, especially since the Post Office Depart. meat has gode into the hands of the whip. We have heretofore refrained from complaining, hoping that every thing would come right in a short time. But instead or an improvement, matters are getting worse every day. Yesterday we received by one mail four copies of the Ohio Statesman, three copies of the Steubenville Herald, two copies of tbo'Cic• cloned Commercial; and two copies of the Detroit Free Press--all of different dates. When we state, the ract, that there are daily mails between Pitts. burgh and the places mentioned, it mast be appa rent that the department is wretchedly managed at present. We are not disposed to complain without a cause, or be the least captious; but every one mast admit that a reform Is loudly demanded. We believe the Postmaster in this city, Mr. Rostansoa, is disposed to do what is right ; and although many mistakes occur in bis office, they are nodoubt °Ain ; sectional. . Oen. Taileiva ANN:ointments; To suniose that a Democratic Senate will coofinn every appointment made by Gen. Tailor, without inquirieg into the reasons why a change was made in each case, is too great an absurdity to be believ ed for a moment. Hundreds of worthy man sad excellent officers have been unceremoniously thrust from the places they hive filled for years, with hon or to themselves and credit to their country, without any reasons whatever being aniseed for the change. The power of the Semite over appointments is equal to that of the Executive, and it is the duty of that body to enter into a rigid lamination of the casts Which induced the Prelideat.to make a change. if it shall be made to appear that appointments to of fice have been Made solely for political reasons„and not orraccount of a lock of capacity on the part of the persona removed, we think a Democratic Senate is bound to reject all inch appointaientt. For that body to pursue any Other coulee, would evince a lack of dignity and firmness, which we do not think can be justly charged against it, or would bo an ad mitiled..that the President's acts were all right.
