It is presumed that the great characteristic of the soil, in this portion of the territory of Maryland, is an absence, or deficiency of calcareous ingredients.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Journal of Science and Arts, Vol. 40: April, 1841 The vegetable productions of North America, in common with those of most other parts of the world, have generally been first described by European botanists, either from the collections of travellers, or from specimens communicated by residents of the country, who, induced by an enlightened curiosity, the love of flowers, or in some instances, by no inconsiderable scientific acquirements, have thus sought to contribute, according to their opportunities, to the promotion of botanical knowledge. From the great increase in the number of known plants, it very frequently happens that the brief descriptions, and even the figures, of older authors are found quite insufficient for the satisfactory determination of the particular species they had in view; and hence it becomes necessary to refer to the herbaria where the original specimens are preserved. In this respect, the collections of the early authors possess an importance far exceeding their intrinsic value, since they are seldom large, and the specimens often imperfect. With the introduction of the Linnaean nomenclature, a rule absolutely essential to the perpetuation of its advantages was also established, viz. that the name under which a genus or species is first published shall be retained, except in certain cases of obvious and paramount necessity.

The question of terrestrial temperature, one of the most remarkable and difficult in natural philosophy, involves very different elements which require to be considered in a general light. I have thought it would be useful to have condensed in a single essay, all the results of this theory. The analytical details here admitted, are found in works which I have already published.1 was specially desirous of presenting to philosophers, in a concise table, a complete view of the phenomena and the mathematical relations which exist between them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Journal of Science and Arts Art. I. - Memoir of the Life and Character of Nathaniel Bowditch, LL. D., F .R, S.; by Rev. Alexander Young. Nathaniel Bowditch was born at Salem, in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, on the 26th day of March, 1773. He was the fourth child of Habakkuk and Mary Ingersoll Bowditch. His ancestors, for three generations, had been shipmasters, and his father, on retiring from that perilous mode of bard industry, carried on the trade of a cooper, by which he gained a scanty and precarious subsistence for a family of seven children. I had a curiosity to trace up the life of this wonderful man, if possible, to his childhood, to ascertain his early character and powers, and the influences under which his heart and mind had been formed. Accordingly on a recent visit to Salem, I took a walk, of some two or three miles, to see a house where he used to say that he and his mother had lived when he was as yet hardly advanced beyond infancy.
