STANDAIfD OF FEMALE BEAUTY
We are rp accustomed in the present
aW-i- Ji-lrcate -Uf;;if -l;;it, fur.
wsnt of good models, the idedl linage which
w eforatof them bus hi en - very much
ehaitgetl. Whai are the cliaraeienstirs of
beauty as represented in mod. m novels?
Insiead of a bright and healthy complexion,
n graceful activity, ard youitrful vivacity,
we bear of a blender aerial form, a sylph
like figure, an irsiercsung paleness; ocea
sionaliy relieved by the shade of carnation,
an expressive couiilenance gently tinged
with melancholy. Iiut il tnu.-a be at once
perceived that all ilie.-e eharacteiistics a-e
exactly the mdiative of a delicate health ;
an extremely tdeuuVr figure, a fining color
and langud expression, afford no very favor
able augury for a future mother or .for a
wife, who may, perhaps, be called to as
sijt hrr husband in adversity. Yei the im
agination of mother, as-w ell aa daughters,
ia factiHMGd by such description-- ihej
are afraid tif destroying these interesting
charms; and we w ill meet wiiii 6ome giiJs
who will not eat fifr fear of growing fat. and

il Dr. Notir in bis leciures, giveahe follow
litg Hccount of a young man, abottt 25y ear
of age ;
lie I ad been an habitiialvJrunlirirdtor,
many Years. 1 saw him about 9 o'clock in
the evening on., which it happened $ but he
w aithcii as full a8 usual, tint diuuk, 4?ul lull
ol liquor.. '
" About llo'cInrk, the san-e .morning.
I called to'iee liifi . I found .bun It tV rally
roasteti. fiom the crown of his head to the
solea of Ihs .jfee.t. lie w as found in a black-,
s mih's 6hp,.jnsi across from w here he had
been seen. The. owner, all of -a sudden,
discovert! an expensive light tn his, shop.jiS.
though the '.budding was in one genirHl
flame.1 He ran will, great precipitancy, ami
on throwing open the door,be dicre!d
a man atamlmg t rt ct in Ihe midst of a n'ely
extended silver coluied -flame, bearing, s.
he desciibrd, exactly the appearanCH ol ihe
wick of a burning audle in the mnlst of its
own flame. He seized htm, (de .drunkard,)
by the shoulder, jeikel linn to '"the dor,
uptui which the ftame w'a instantly extin
guished. There was no fire in the shop,
nor was there any possibility of any fire
having bcen.communicated to hi in from any
exiernal Siurces. It was a case of sponta
neous iginiion. A general slough soon
came on. and his flesh was consumed -or
reoioted in the dressing, leaving the hones
and a lew of the larger blood vessels; the
hlnod. nevertheless, rallied around the heaii,
and maintained the vital spark until the thir
teenth, day, when he 4! ted, not .only ihe
most loathsome, ill-featured picture thin was
ever presented to the human vtew buiehis
shrieks, his. groans, and li is lamentation,
also, were enougirlo rend a heart of adamant.
He said he was suffering the lurmeut.-t of
hell that lie was-'just upon its ' threshold
aul w:7uTif soon enter into its dismal cavern;

THE LINCOLN I ON DAKCACUE.
In honor of ihe rctum of Ihe Gallant Capt. JNO.
. HOKE, and his brave companions in arms.
Previous to the morning of the 7ih, the day
selected for this' purpose, the committee of ar
rangements had matfe the necessary prepara
tions. '---.-..
The morning was fine, the sun rose in
splencor. the-glorious Stars and StripeB flutter
ed aloft in the breeze, business was, in a mea
sure, Euspended.and men and women, and even
little children appeared in their holyday attire.
Patriotism animated the heart of thetrue Re
publican ; pleasure glowed upon the-matron's
brow ; and joy Learned in tlie maiden's eye. If
rancor burned in the hearts of the opposers of
the administration during the war, while our
brave volunteers were ehedijing their blood in
defence of llie country, -if political hostUity to
Republican principles, influenced some to pre
vent a proper reference to the justice of the
glorious 'cause to which our citizen soldiers de
voted their. livee, prudence at least, dictated the
policy of seeming to participate with the tie.
mocracy in paying the well merited tribute of
respect to ' the "soldiers, of what tbey were
pleased to denominate " Jimmy Polk's war."
The attendance cf both ttxes, was I.irge, per.
haps two thousand ; and although the Presi
dent, and Orator 6t the day, L E. Thompson,
Esq., ia distinguished for aoility and e!oqueucet
yet, us be was expected, by political opponents
who participated, to make no reference to the
justice of the cause, iu which cur bruve men
shed their. Llood, the following address, could
not, in the verv nature of things,4 equal the an
