brawny arms, that she invariably displays
there, and all the other corresponding deyel
opment, such as is beautiful in the maiden
blossom, but a spectacle to howl at in such an
over-blown cabbage-rose as this
Yet, somewhere in this enormous bulk,
there must be hidden the modest, slender,
vlolet-nature Of a girl, whom an alien mass of
earthliness has unkindly overgrown; for an
English maiden in her teens, though very sell
dom SO pretty as our own damsels, possesses,
to say the truth, a certain charm of half bios
som, and delicately folded leaves, and tender
womanho0d, shielded by maidenly reserves,
with which, somehow or other, our American
girls often fail to adOrn themselves during an
appreciable moment. 1t is pity that the
English violet should grow into such an out
rageously developed peony as have attempt
ed to describe. | wonder whether a middle
aged husband ought to be considered as legally
married to all the acGrelions that have over
grown the slehderneSs of his bride, since he
led her to the altar, and which make her so
much more than he ever bargained for! Is
1t not a SOunder view of the case, that the
matrimonial bond cannot be held to include
the three-fuurths of the wife that had no ex-
lStcnre when the ceremony was performed?
And as matter of conscience and good NOR
ais, ought not an English married pair to in
Sist upon the celebration Of silver we'd
ding at the end of twenty-five years, in order
to legallze and mutually appropriate that cor
poreal growth Of which both parties have in
dlvldually come into possession since they
were pronounced one flesh?

And this, after repeated failure with such ar
tilery as could be made to float on board a
ship, has been accomplished by enormous
cannon, fixed on a land battery, discharging

range of four thousand and four hundred
yards.
Sir William Armstrong could not
dave done this so soon, but he could have
done it, and Mr.. Whitworth would, Ito doubt,
make short work OF even such a place as
Sumter. But neither of them has vet shown
us any thing like the range and accuracy,
combined with sheer runnus force, of Gill.

HawthOrne's Description of English
Beauty.

| have heard good deal of the tenacity
with which English ladies retain their person.
al beauty to Il late period of life; but mot to
suggest that an American eye needs use and
cultivation before it can quite appreciate the
charm of English beauty at any age) it strikes
me that an English lady of fifty is apt to be-
come creature less refined and delicate so
far as her physique goes, than anything that
we western people class under the name Of
woman. She has an awful pOnderosity of
frame, not pulpy, like the looser development
OF our few fat women, bat massive with solid
beef and streaky tallow; so that (though
struggling inanfully against the idea) you in
evitaby think of her as made up OF steaks and
sirloins
When she walks, her advance is elephan-
tine. When she sits down, it is on a great
round space Of her Makers footstool, where
she looks as if nothing could ever move her.
She imposes awe and respect by the much
ness of her personality, to such degree that
you probably credit her with far greater moral
and intellectual force than she can fairly claim.
Her visage is usually grim and stern, seldom
positively forbidding. yet calmly terrible, not
merely by its breadth and weight of feature,
but because it seems to express SO much well
founded self-reance, such acquaintance with
the world, its tolls, troubles and dangers, and
such sturdy capacity Tor trampllng down
foe. Without anything positively salient, or
actively offensive, or indeed unustly formid-
able to her neghbors, she has the effect of a
seventy-four gun-ship in time Of peace; for,
while you assure yourself that there is no real
danger, you cannot help thinking how tremen-
dous would be her onset, if pugnaciously in
cined, and how futile the effort to infict any
counter-injury. She certainly looks ten fold
hay, hundred fold-better able TO take
care OF herself than our slender-tram and
haggard womankind; but have not found
reason to suppose that the English dowager
OF fifty has actually greater courage, fortitude
and strength OF character, than our women OF
similar age, or even tougher physical en-.
durance than they. Morally, she is strong, |
suspect, only in society, and in the common
routine Of social affairs and would be found
poweress and timd III any exceptional strait
that might call for energy outside of the
conventonalities amid which she has grown
up.
You can meet this figure in the street. and
live, and even smile at the recollection. But
conceive of her in a ballroom, with the bare,
