ANATOMY. 



most indubitable manifestations of design 

 with which we are acquainted. 



The number of the muscles of the 

 human body is so great, and the circum- 

 stances which demand attention in every 

 muscle are likewise so numerous, that a 

 particular description of each would ex- 

 tend this article beyond its prescribed 

 limits. We shall therefore merely give 

 a catalogue of the muscles ; which, toge- 

 ther with the references to the annexed 

 plates, will give the reader a sufficiently 

 clear notion of the subject.
