We are little too old, to be sure, to be talk
ing about woman's charms but it is and always
has been our conviction that q genuine cult-
waited lady is ever more lovely and lovable after
thirty than before it-when intelligence, judg-
ment, and dignity are blended with the femi-
nine graces Of modesty, gentleness, and benev-
olence. Were life to be perpetuated forever,
and we to grow no older, we would choose that
man should possess the development and ma
turity of forty to fifty, and woman Of thirty to
forty.
But, respecting Miss Hayes: who is amazed
that she is twenty-six Who ever heard--ex-
cept in the cases Of prodigics or monsters-of
m artist becoming truly great and distinguished

work are believed 10 be superior 10 any that have
been taken In the accomplishment of this great
object he has experienced the utmost courtesy and
encouragement from distinguished men MIR. Brady's
reputation has been too long established to need any
recommendation. His daguerreotypes are in the
highest sense the works OF art glowing with tie soul

The drawings and engravings Of D'Avignon have
been pronounced by Europeans Of taste 10 be ially
equal and in some respects superior 10 those of the
best artists OF London and Paris and every i'm
