EYEs.-No.hing can be more certain
than that the black eye indicates loqua-
ciousness. Is not the sky black before it
thunders I and is it not blue when it is
tranquil? But who would be satisfied
with sky forever the same sleepy blue
And who would dwell in climate where
the heavens were always black with tenn
pests! Therefore we incline to the ha>
zle..or grey eye, which ligh.ens in anger,
or melIs in good humor. When pair Of
these grey ones fasten upon us. we feel
indiscribable emotions We feel as we
suppose those flies do in warm weather
who turn over on their backs and spin
round like whirlgigs, in kind Of fly &C.
