H6w often we hear men eager in the pursuit of partners for life, inquire for a beautiful woman; and-yet how brief of what they seek, and how unproductive of happiness in its possession. ' ' ‘ We know full well the satisfaction that sleeps beneath the show while lids of a beautiful eye; in the haughty,cml of the exquisite lip; in the blush of-a rose that leaps into a budding check; in the fine turn of a swan-Iikc neck, the gentle motions of a symetrical form, or in the shadowy redundance^of dark and beautiful flowing tresses. , " .The hearts of the yopng and passionate leap gladly, and are filled with wild impulses, whilst gazing qboh these tilings—but whehtjhe soul is i berutinized-ahd found unblessed by elevated thbugBt-. anjl generous imaginings, when the intellect |a uncultured, and the imagination cold, the slumber of forgetfultuus’ will soon fall upon the dream of beauty, and the flamo of affection |ie quenched in apathy and disgust.
