AMBITION VS.. FAT.

LymPhatic temperaments have generally
rendered men averse TO active labor, 10
consecutive thought and to ambitious pro-
jec,s. The fact has been known for time
immemorial; every man is sufficiently
skilled in physognomy 10 select the active
and daring. from the easy and good-humor-
ed; but ,shy this is go. none bat the learned
seem to understand. The we'll known
observation which Shakespeare puts into the
mouth OF Cesar will doubtless occur 10
every reader:
'La me have men about me that are fat.
Sleek headed men, and such as sleep o.
nights:
Yon Cassius has lean and hungry look !,
Hsghinks too much; such men are dam
geFous."s
Some writer. Eve know not who, as we
find the paragraph floating without credit,)
who appears TO have been shrewd obser-
yer ef his fellow men, both physically and
intellectually, has the following remarks OH
this subject:
"It would appear that il is requisite for
the body to be active and elastic as the
mind; and # it is not. It weighs the later
down te us own gravity. Who ever heard
Of fat man being ambitious? Cesar was
a spare man; Bonsparte was thin as long
as he climbed the ladder; Nelson was a
shadow; the Duke Of Wellington had not
sufficient, Fat IN his whole composition to
grease hiso boots. 10 short, think my
hypothesis 10 be fairly borne out, that fa,
and ambition are incompatible. Ambition
seems to depend upon the irritation Of bile
acting upon delicate mucous tissues. Now,
this 10 utterly impossible in fat man. for
the blood is so much taken up in forming
adipose matter, that It cannot afford TO do
much for the hillary secretion. Give a
man hundred weight Of good suet as a
kind Of cushion for his bones. and he will
jog along this lifp's turnpike without
troubling oshers or himself much"
