 easy trolling horse upon the body; it causes all the gross humoFs and updi. gested heavy ideas to settle down and pass of, It IS a very easy matter to tell mans disposition by his laugh, and l have & strong ides to carry the theory into operation, against that of Gall and spurzheim. A jovial, shrewd, good hearted fellow will laugh heartily and loudly, with a meaning, however, of genuine humor. On the contrary. a thiek-headed stolid genius, allows his merriment ventin 8 perfect bray. This we detest. and were we supreme in our authority, we would condemn such fel- lows to wear a cap and bens. A stin- gy, miserey genius, laughs short and quick, and seems esYetoHs of uerri- ment; his laugh sounds like a Norhwes- CT through gin,let hole. A satirest seldom laughs out right; it would ex- pose him to ridieule, he restrains it when hard pressed, and allows its force to curl up his lips iite coTkserew.-- This is the worst of all laughs. and a taan who lndulgcs in 1t ought to be put upon the treadmilL When van zoe 2 man surrounded by crowd and laugh ing very often. you may safely swear that he is either Jerremy Diddler or a Politician canvassing for office.
