possibly the only sort Of royalty or no

Of democraty or republicani.m in some
way, when we observe their workings in
society. But the beautiful woman rcigns
supreme in the social circle, and while she
possesses this q eat power, wo are grati6ed
to observe that shI wiclds it with no
petty tyranny, but with grace and do
lectsble dcmeanor that always CHARMS
aud mover offsnds. Americans and Eug.
lishmen freely lay their fortunes on tho
altar|of beauty, but Frenchmen seldom
marry for beauty's sake alone. As to
England, We have only 10 ailude to tho
marriages Of the English Duke Of Aber
coar's daughter to afford q significant
proof Of what beauty docs for family.
While Eve Of these young ladies--by no
means literally lowered by their father
--are already married t, wealthy peers,
and the sixth is engaged to tho heir of a
duke, the eight daughters Of q marquis
(who are wealthy, homcly and reside in
the same country arc with out husbands.
Since tho Jays Of the celebrated Gun

40 famous as tho Hamiltons. Iudced,
the latter are the more remarkable of the
two for while there were but two beau.

Hamilton, and all Of them are beauties.
One is the wife Of the Earl Of Dalkeith,
the heir Of Bold Bucclench others arc
the wives Of the Earls OF Litchfe,d,

is the sfianceed bride Of the eldest con of
the Duke Of Marlboro. while tho youngest
