HOW THE CANDIDATES LOOK. g:ys
Life Illustrated, published in New York, has
the following description Of the various candi-
dates - e.
"Brady, the daguerreotypist, has all the
candidates in his gallery Fillmore and Donel-
son, Buchanan and Breckenridge, Fremont and
Dayton--two pictures Of each, a, colored minia-
ture, and life-slzed portrait. How do they
! look? 81. ga as'3 aoqi s@Aut7 17a3eaA
Buchanan looks old, old--very old. A large
boned, heavy old man, with massive head quite
gray. q forehead all puckersd between the eyes,
and the skin drawn tightly over large ivid face
He looks like dead man~-s dead old man. His
mouth shows age in every line. It is mouth
that looks unused to smiling; an irregular, jag
ged hole in his face. Unhappy old man!wh
threw away all the good of life in scheming for
place: and now, tottering on the brink of the
grave is doomed to see the prize for which be lost
his soul, approach him, only to glide forever from
his grasp! Stand before the picture, young pol
itician, and see what the scheming partizan be-
comes! Not that the face is bad one. 1t is an
unhappy face, an ignoble face, an old, but not
pleasant intelligent, benevolent face. 1t is the
face Of man who has missed the true good and
Joy Of life, and who is willing to sacrifice the tran
guilty of his last years for the sake of that which
an old man has no excuse for valuing. 1t is the
face of man who is willing, at three score years
and ten, to cease to be James Buchanan, and to
become only the representative and tool Of GER
tain ofice-holders and Office seekers, commonly
called tbe democratic party d si.s4ss vas
Breckenridge is quite the dandy--black- haired,
smoothed-face, beardless young gentleman Of
thirty. His face as delineated BY Mr.. Brady and
the sun, is devoid of expression. lie is some
what primly dressed, and looks most competent
to do all that may become man-in the draw
ing room. If he should be called upon-which
he is not going to be-to preside over the Senate,
he will be of all living men the most out of place.
He will have to grow as never man grew before,
or he will not be able to fill the chair once occu.
pied by Adams and Jefferson. So % 3
Dayton is handsome, we'll built man and in
the very prime Of manhood. Hair black and lux
uriant; a. good, symmetrical, massive forehead !;
an open, direct, guileless and fearless expression
Of countenance. he is manly looking man, one
who would be it, or could make himself 6t for
any place. He would be called the handsomest
man in the Presidential group. re9s;b ~ 5. ri
In the countenance of Fremont is seen that
blended expression of strength and serenity which
marks the hero. Soft blue eyes, hair brown and
profuse; moustache and beard; rosy face, not
without some lines stamped upon it by care, ex-
posure and toll; o composed intelligent look !;
earnest, thoughtful, unrufled, and not easy to be
rufaed; the open and somewhat flowing shirt
collar, imparting careless grace to the upper
part Of the person. 1t is the picture of . man
who would be coolest when nearest destruction,
and under whose assuring eye cowards would
become brave. 1t is the face of man with whom
it was inevitable that Jessia Benton should run
away. No girl worthy of him could help it.
