ANATROPE, a relaxation of the stomach,

ANAUMACIION, among the ancients, 
the crime of refusing to serve in the fleet, the 
punishment of which was infamy. 
ANCH1LOPS, in medicine, a small tu- 
mour in the great angle of the eye, frequently 
degenerating into an abscess, or fistula laohry- 
malis. 
ANCHOR, in maritime affaire, is a very 
large and heavy iron instrument, with a 
double hook at one end, and a ring at the 
other, by which it is fastened to a cable. It 
is cast into the bottom of the sea, or rivers, 
where taking its hold, it keeps ships from 
A N C 
being drawn away by the wind, tide, or cur- 
rents. 
’t here are several kinds of anchors : 1 . the 
sheet anchor, which is the largest, and is 
never used but in violent storms, to hinder 
the ship from being driven ashore. 2. The 
two bowers, which are used for ships to ride 
in a harbour. 3. The stream anchor. 4, 
The grapnel. The iron of which anchors are 
made, ought neither to be too soft nor too 
brittle. In order to give them a proper 
temper, it is the practice to join brittle with j 
soft iron, and for this reason the Spanish and 
Swedish iron ought to be preferred. 
The shank of an anchor is to be three times 
tire length of one of its flukes, and a ship of I 
500 tons lias her sheet anchor of 2000 weight ; ] 
and so proportionably for others smaller or j 
greater. 
The anchor is said to be a-peak, when the | 
cable is perpendicular between the hawse and 1 
the anchor. An anchor is said to come home ' 
when it cannot hold the ship. An anchor is j 
foul, when by the turning of the ship, the J 
cable is hitched about the fluke. To shoe ] 
an anchor, is to fit boards upon the flukes, j 
that it may hold the better in soft ground. j 
When the anchor hangs right up and down j 
by the ship’s side, it is said to be a cock bell, \ 
upon the ship’s coming to an anchor. 
Riding at anchor, is the state of a vessel | 
moored and fixed by her anchors. Dropping 
an anchor, imports the letting it down into- J 
the sea. In some cases it is necessary to ] 
drop two anchors opposite to each other ; one ] 
to keep the ship firm against the tide or flow, I 
the other against the ebb. Weighing anchor, \ 
is the recovering it into the vessel in order for 1 
sailing. The anchor is ordinarily weighed by | 
means of a windlass. 
Anchor, in architecture, a sort of carv- 
ing, something resembling an anchor. It is 1 
commonly placed as part of the enrichments-] 
of the boultins of capitals of the Tuscan, Doric, I 
and Ionic orders, and also of the boultir.s of j 
bed-mouldings of the Doric, Ionic, and Co- j 
rinthian cornices ; anchors and : eggs being : 
carved alternately through the whole building, j 
Anchors, in heraldry, are emblems of 
hope, and are taken for such in a spiritual ] 
as well as in a temporal sense. 
ANCHORAGE, or Anchoring- j 
ground, a place where a ship may cast 1 
anchor. 
The best anchoring-ground is stiff clay or - 
hard sand ; and the best place for riding at j 
anchor, is where a ship is land-locked, andj 
out of the tide. 
Anchorage, in law, is a duty taken of.' 
ships for the use of the port or harbour. 
ANCHOVY, in ichthyology and cona-- 
merce,.a species of clupea, with the upper, i 
jaw longest. See Clupea. 
The anchovy is so like the common sprat, , 
another species of clupea, that it is no wonder f 
this fish is often pickled and sold under its-^ 
name. 
The fishing for anchovies is carried an... 
chiefly in the night-time ; when a light being! 
put on the stern of the vessels, the fish flock! 
round,, and are caught in the nets. 
ANCIiUSA, Alcanet, or Bugloss:| 
a genus of the monogynia order belonging to-. 
the pentandria class of plants. The calyx is- 
a quinquepartite perianthium, oblong and 4 
persistent: the corolla is monopetalous and-, 
funnel-shaped, the Upoat closed with scales -j
