senator Kings Letter.

Senator King, Of Alabama, is the presi-
ding officer of the Senate, and, by the act Of
Providence, second only in station to the
President of the United States. His recent
letter appears at length in the National Intel
ligencer. He fully and candidly discussed
the questions mooted in the political articles
of his own State, and contrary to the tele-
graph report of his letter, Senator King does
not give direct "aid and comfort" to the Dis.
unionists of the South. The Intelligencel
says "his letter effectually corrects the error
of the first telegraphic account of its con
tents, which represented the Honorable Sen
ator as having given in his adhesion to the
Revolutionists (Disunionists) party. He
has, as the reader will discover, done no such
thing. A true Southron, he stands up for the
rights of his people; but he gives no sanction
to Quixotic enterprises such as would sub
stitute for the ballot-box and legislative &C.
tion the law of force Cleueland Herald.

How Queen Victoria Looks.

We published the other day, an accoun!
oe an interview between Victoria, at the
Crystal Palace, and M. Jules Lecomte, Re-
porter Of the Independence Beige, whose
letters from London and Paris occasionally
grace the columns of the Courier des Etats
Unis, The following is his description OF
the appearance of the Queen and Prince Al
bert:
"This is evidently the place for me to
draw couple of portraits, The Queen is
small, and her person is rounded for the sew
enth or eighth time in an interesting man
ner, as they say here. Probably to this sit
uation is % be attributed the Impression. she
made on me of being little older than she
really is; for, you know, Queen Victoria is
still what may be called a young woman
Whether it was the fatigue of the Dall, OF
the result of this interesting Il repeat the
word for want of another) situation, did
not see in her face anything Of that type
stamped in profile on the national coin, o.
that represented in the portraits which cir
culate throughout Europe. The hair Of He
Majesty is Of soft chestnut; her nose ha
an nimperious curve /; her mouth is Austrian
and has prominent movement of the low
er lip, which, in expressing certain impres
sions, gives the mouth very queer outline
''The toilette OF Queen Victoria woul
have driven Partisan lady to despair, He
Majesty wore skirt Of transparent muslin
with polaats over an underskirt of blue silh
pink mantilla, blue hat and straw gloves
badly fitting. Prince Albert, a very hand
some fellow, looking much like the usua
portraits, (Princes are always fattered,) j
circulation, was dressed with more negli
gence, in a brown frock coat, gray panta
loons, and silk cravat But why that grea
blue ribbon of the Order of the Garter S

tune?
