RESPECTED FRIEND.-In thy paper OF

the person writing the reply IS a man for
whom have much respect; but differing
widely from him ON the subject an con-

WESTERN BEAUTIES

We find the following unique descrip-
ton ofsWestern Beauties" in a letter
from a correspondent in Washington city,
to Philadelphia paper, describing III.
Presidents last levee.
III saw a couple Of splendid western
beauties, who destroyed the peace Of sew
eral quiet minds and made work for Dor.

duces elegant women, and the valley Of
the Mississippi wonderful ones There is
an originaIity-a raciness-amonx the
women of the west, which is emimently
attractive. They touch the confines OF
civilization and barbarian with such a
daring grace,that the psecise petit NATURES
ofthe Atlantic are thun ,erstruck or turn
ed into gaping statues 1T their fascinating
wildness and encha nting audacity. A
western or southern belle, fresh from the
woods. IS a sealed book to an Atlantic
dandy. He Cannot understand her: he
has not the key; she Is beyond his vision.

Judge William C. Carr, of Missouri, has been
acquitted Of the impeachment, upon which he
has been tried by the Legislature Of that State.
The St. Louis Republican makes the following
remarks upon the subject:
Judge Carr is acquitted. He has triumphed
over the malice of his enemies at home, and over
most vindctive persecution. No trial, in any
body, was ever conducted with less regard to
the rights Of the accused-with less sympathy
for man violently assailed in his public and
private character. Party feelinss-odiou, enough

We have always believed that the South labor
ed under profound delusion in regard to the
operation of the Tariff upon it. and have never
doubted that the day would come when that de-
fusion would vanish. Let US however have the
nearest possible approach to unrestricted trade
without laying manufactures in ruins, and resor-
ting to direct taxation for the support Of Govern
ment. Let Us try it. that it 1t fail IN realising
the sangulne hopes Of the South. all sections Of
the Uuion may then cooperate in return to
protection. Let US try all. and hold fast to the
best.
Would it not be singular thing to see in ten
years from this time, Virginia and South Carroll
