In appearance, Mr Webster was a very re
markable mau. . II is head was very' large, and
his face full, . His eyes were those of an ox, the
largest l ever saw iu any. human ; head. 1 His
complexion was. dark, aud 1 his ' hair 'jet 1 black;
He was a stout utan with a massive figure, above
the ordinary height. Ho-used to say that his
brother, who died "young, and fell dead in court;
was the finest figure of a man he had ever seen.
J udge Martin, of South Carolina, in describing
Webster's personal appearance to nie whilot he
was a member of Congress, said he always re
minded him of those French revolutionists whtse
talents and crimes . were - so : conspicuous before
the world. But it is a gf ea mistake to suppose
Webster had a bud heart." Colonel Prestou'a
