The TerrOrs Of Ugliness,

The last number of the Democratic Review is
ornamented CD with portrait of Mr.. Bennett, OF
the Herald. 1t must be confessed that Mr. Ben
nett is not handsome man. The Louisville Jour
nal, himself none of the handsomest pokes fun at
his likeness in the following style:
There's one thing we will readily admit, and
that is, that if Benefits portrait be correct he is
the ugliest of the democratic editors. For awhile
we doubted whether he or a certain neighbor Of
ours, is the ugliest mortal; but the twist in the
eyes of Bennett decided the contest in his favor.
We congratulate our neighbor that there is one
editor uglier than himselfin the democratic ranks.
Benefits portrait is terrific. Such thing
ought never to be painted or daguerreotyped. Il
ought to be considered penal offence to make
anything SO revolving to all ideas Of propriety
No man has right to monopoze so much ugli-
ness. If Benefits ugiiness could be distributed
over thousand faces, it would make each of them
intensely, hatefullyugly. He ought not to be per-
milted to 60 into the streets without blanket o.
yer his awful frontspiece. No wonder that SO ma
many Of the New York children die of commissions.
since Bennett Is permitted to walk abroad With IN.

Youth and Age.

The following beautiful lines originally appeared
lgo by the boys of Eaton College. For truth, tender
ness and melody they are incompatible:
often think each lettering form
That limps along in life's decline,
Once bore heart as young, warm,
AS full of idle thoughts as mine!
And each has had its dream of ioy.
Its own unequaled pure romance;
Commencing when the blushing boy
First thrills at lovely Woman's glance,
And each could tell his tale of youth,
Would think its scenes of love evince
More passion, more unearthly truth,
Than any tale before or since.
Yes they could tell of tender lays,
At midnight Penned in classic shades,
OF days more bright than modern days
And maids more fair than modern maids.
OF whispers in willing ear,
Of kisses on blushing cheek
Each kiss, each whisper, far too dear,
Our modern lips to give or speak,
Of passions too untimely crossed:
Or passions sighted or betrayed
Of kindred spirits early lost,
And buds that bloom but to fade;
Of beaming eyes and tresses gay,
Elastic form and noble brow,
And forms that have all passed away.
And left them what we see them now!
And is it thus-is human love
So very light and frail thingl
And must youths brightest visions move
Forever on Tines restless wing!
Must all the eyes that still are bright,
And all the lips that talk of bliss,
And all the forms so fair to sight,
Hereafter only come to this?
Then what are earth's best visions worth,
If we at length must lose them thus
If all we value most on earth
Ere long must fade away from us :
