HoMELY WoMEN.-For q homely-
even an ugly mani have no pity TO
spare. never yet saw one so ugly that
il he had brains and heart, he could not
find beautiful woman sensible enough to
marry him. But for the hopelessly plain
and homely sisters "these tears" There
is class OF women who know that they
possess in their persons no attractions for
men-that their faces are homelv, that
their frames are Informed, that their car
rage is clumsy, and that whatever may
be their gifts Of mind, no man can Lave
the slightest desire to possess their per-
sons. That there are compensaticns for
these women | have no doubt, but many
Of them fail to find them. Many Of them
feel that the sweetest sympathies Of life
must be repfessed, and that there is d
world Of affection from which they must
remain shut out forever. 1t is hard fcr a
woman TO feel that her person is not pleas
ing harder than for man to feel thus
| would tell why if it were necessary-for
there is a bundle Of very interesting phi
iosophy tied up in this natter-but | will
content myself with stating the fact and
permitting my readers to reason about it
as they will.-Dr. Holland.

Curious Developments.

Among the many valuable documents
captured on the rebel flag ship-some Of
which send you for publications. the
famous Breckenridge letter which was writ
ten to Calhoun, of Elisabeth City, in Oc-
tober, before the Presidential election; in
which letter he says he loves the Union,
but the South he loves better. This letter
found its way into the North Carolina pa
pers, and created great excitement, and, as
soon as it became evident to bis friends
that he would loose the vote of the State,
he authorized the editor of the Southern
to pronounce it forgery. It is an auto
graph letter, and Mr.. B. knew it was no
forgery.
From papers found on the rebel flag
ship we learn that they are building x
gunboats at Norfolk also, that a contract
was signed in Charleston the day that the
city was 50 nearly burned, for building ten
gunboats there; the machine shops were
all burned. which prevents the boats from
being built We also learn from the
same source that everything Is to be got in
readiness BY the rebels to burn Norfolk the
