OUTWARD BEAUTY.-I cannot under
stand, says Frederika Bremen, the import
ance which certain people set upon outward
beauty or plainness, am of opinion that
al true education, such at least as has
religious foundation, mu refuse noble
calm,a wholesome coldness an indifference,
or whatever people may call it, toward
such.like outward gifts, or the want of
them. And who has not experienced of
how little consequence they are, in fact,
for the veal or wo of life? Who has not
experienced how on nearer acquaintance,
plainness becomes bcautifed, and beauty
looscs its charm, exactly according to the
am also of opinion that the want ofoutward
beauty never dsquiets noble nature, or
will be regarded as a misfortune. 1t never
can prevent people from being amiahle and
beloved in the highest degree, and we have
daily proof Of this

of this country, that we may continue to
live in unity and prosperity And al
though the living prophet is not, yet God S
word, in all its living power, is, And
what Jehovah said at one period Of the
worlds calamity is still adapted to other
periods when calamity threatens, The bible
is a marvellous book. There is no age, no
condition, or no circumstance in which
man is or can be excluded from its advice
It is full Of sound wisdom and advice we
all need it, we always need it, our nation
needs it now; without it we know not

Death and Starvation in New
Yolk.
From the Tribune.1

NV
A sad case of destitution came 10 the
knowledge of the Fourth Ward Police,
about 4 o'clock on Monday afternoon.
Officer Rade found in the tenement house,
No 80 Madison street, in the upper part
of the building, the lifcless body of a man
named John Williams, about 33 years of
age, stretched upon the floor. From his
appearance he had probably had the con-
sumption, and being unable to procure the
necessaries of life, had laid down and died
from Starvation.
From the Brooklyn Eagle
A poor lone woman, Mrs. McMullen,
residing at III Hudson avenue, learning
the death of her husband, who had gone
into the country in search of employment,
combined with her destitute condition, so
disheartened her, that she resolved to end
her troubles by taking large dose of
laudanum on Tuesnay night. The result
of course was fatal.
From The New York Day Book1
1t will be seen by our police reports that
600 poor people sought lodging in the
station houses last night. Thousands are
suffering for want of food and clothing,
many are dying-actually dying of star
walton. We report another case to day.
Meantime, preparations are going Oh to
make war on the South because it cannot
recognize the blessings of negro equality.
[From the New York Sun.
The office of the Superintendents Of tho
Poor, in the basement of the City Hall, is
daily thronged by unfortunate persons,
mostly females, seeking relief They stand
for hours waiting their turn. A few it is
suspected, are imposters, but doubtless the
great majority are in actual want A day
or two since an affecting incident occurred.
A young woman who had been standing
for some time in the cold, damp hallway.
fell down from exhaustion, and it was some
time before size could be restored to anima-
ton. The state of her physical system
was evidently the result of the want of the
necessaries of life.

A REMARKABLE METEOR was seen
on the morning of the 1lth ult., at a
quarter Before 3 O'Clock, at various
places in Illinois. 1t was very large and
brilliant, and exploded with a report like
cannon. 1t remained in sight from three
to five seconds, aud disappeared in the
northeast, its course having been eastward
with great velocity, in a right line little
inclined downward. At Geneva three or
four large meteors We're seen, but accounts
from other places mention that there was
one body like ball of molten iron, and
some smaller ones, apparently merely
detached portions of it, In some places
the explosion is spoken of as having been
tremendous, like the bursting OF loud
deep, rumbling sound, that gradually died
away. At Darlington and Lake Zurich
the houses shook, and windows ratified
and the people awokc from sleep very
much alarmed,
