this declaration:
eve had conquered the South

Intellectual Women not Beautiful.

Very intellectual women, we find
by observation, are seldom beautiful.
The formation of their features, and
particularly their foreheadS, is more
or less masculine. Miss Lander was
rather pretty and feminine in the
face, but Miss Sedgwick, Miss Par
doe, Miss Leslie and the late Anna
Maria and Jane Porter, the contrary.
One of the Misses Porter had fore
head as high as that OF an intellectual
man who was admired for his per
sOnal beauty. Pope was awfully ug-
ly; DIR. johnson was no better; Mira
beau was the uglieSt man IN all
France, and yet he was the greatest
favOrite with all the ladies. Women
more frequently prize men for their
sterling qualities Of the mind than
men do women. DIR. johnson chose
a woman who had scarcely an idea
above an oyster. He thought her
the loveliest creature in existence, il
we may judge by the inscription he
left on the tomb.
