BEAUTY.

"The wind passe,h over il and i. is eone."
 How often do we hear men eager in the pursuit of partners for life, inquire for beautiful women: and yet how brief the ex- istence of what they seek, and how unpro- ductive of happiness is its possession.
 We know full well the satisfaction that sleeps beneath the snow white lids of a beautiful eye; in the naughty curl of an exquisite lip; in the blush of rose that leaps into the budding cheek :; in the fine turn of swan-like neck, the gentle mo- tions of symmetrical form, or in the sha- dowy redundance of dark and beautifully flowing tresses. The hearts of the young and passionate leap gladly, and are filled with wild impulses, whilst gazing upon theso things-but when the soul is scrutini- zed, and found unHlessed by elevated thought and generous irnaginings, when the intellect is uncHltured, and the imagina- ton cold, the Slumber of forgetfulness will soon fall upon the dream of beauty, and the flame of affection be quenched in apa- thy or disgust.
 With men of genius, strong feelings and powerful passions are ever associated, and if beauty is unmingled with the qualities of "uO uUCSAbOuS u ucttCdCyS and virtue are not admirably blended with mental attraction, the light of love will soon be ex.ingt,ished. and the generous ini- pulses of the bosom chilled by apathy and contempt. Men of intellect may yield momeniary homage to a beautiful woman, dispossesscd of other Vaccinations even village urchin will chace the gilded wing of butterfly, but in both cases the eternal splendor pals upon the senses, and some- thing of an innate character is sought for to sustain the regard which beauty excited. Nothing is so flaltering to the feelings of man. as the exhads,less and quenchless re- gard of sensible female, and no incense So rich can De offered upon the shrine of woman's ambition, as the avowed and en- thusiastic affection of man of genius. Beauty! thou art a mean and unmeaning toy, when contrasted with depth of feeling and power of mind, and she who would ag- grandize to herself consequence, from the little ambition of personal beaatys is too imbecile in her aspirations, to. merit the attention of an elevated thinker. -
