The HUMAN FACE DIvINE.-Addison'has
well said ''The head has the most beautiful
appearance, as well as the highest station,
in hnmaH Squire. Nature has laid out all
her art in identifying the face she
has touched it with vermilion, planted in it
a double row of ivory, made it theseat Of
smiles and bushes, lightened it UP and en-
livened it with the brightest of eyes, hung
it on each side with curious organs OF
sense, giFenit airs and graces that cannot be
described, and surrounded it with such
flowing shade of hair as sets all its beauties
in the most agreeable light. In short, she
seems to have designed the head as the Gu
pola to the most glorious of her works ; aud
when we load it with pile of supernumer-
ary ornaments, we destroy the symmetry of
the human figure, and foolishly contrive to
call off the eye from great and real beauties,
to childish gewgaWs, ribbons and bone
ace.

Interesting from Cha rlessOn.

A Charleston correspondent of the Phladel-
phia Inquirer writes:
"The Rev. Mr.. Van Dyke, Of Brooklyn, went
Yesterday to Morris Island with Mr.. Peck - the
gentleman who entertains him--and sundry white
neck clothed iire-eaters, amongst them that
queer indi vidual, 'Parson Yates. better known
as the fighting parson.' Mr.. Van Dyke is said
to have watched the preparations for slaughter
ing Major Anderson without word of protest.
His only expressions were satisfaction at their
CO nplete and invincible character. Will you
kindly ask your neighbors at Brooklyn whether
or not they want This gentleman back:
81 have been loath to believe what l have
often heard broadly stated he.e, namely, that
the letters passing through the Charleston Post
Office were anything but sacred. From circum-
stances that have just come to my personal knowl'
edge have no hesitation in saying that there
exists at the present moment committee within
the walls of the United States Postofiice, which
has been organized for the purpose of supervis.
ing all northern correspondence. The 'hgh-ton.
ed gentlemen of Charleston have stopped to
tamper with the mails. That which, under the
law, is punishable with imprisonment and hard
labor, is, in spite of the law, practised in whole
sale and reckless manner.
"The working classes are getting into a worse
position every day. The demand for labor is
decreasing every hour. The prices Of provis-
ions will be largely increased within the next
week, and these two tangible and very forcibe
facts are more likely than anything else to bring
the national troubles TO settlement"
