Beauty. (says 5tsele,) has been
the delight and torment of the
world ever since it began. The phi
losOphers have felt its influence so
sensibly, that almost every one of
them has left us some saying or
other, which intimates that he too
well knew it's power. Aristotle has
told us that . graceful person ia a
more powerful recommendation
than the best letter that can be
written in our favor. Plato desires
the pOssessOr Of it to consider it as
a mere gift of nature, and not any
perfection of our own. Socrates
calls it a short-lived tyranny; Theo-
pbrastus, a silent fraud, becaus it
imposes upon US without the help
of language; but Carneades spoke IA
much like a philosopher. aud more
like a lover, than any of them,
when he called it Royalty soithOxt
force. 1t is not to be denied, that
thele is something irresistible in q
beauteOus form, and the most Sc.
we're will not pretend that they do
not feel an immediate prep0ssessi0n
in favor Of the handsome.

POLITICAL HEssIANs.-This lit
tie paragraph, from the Independent
South. will fit the Uranium of many
q reader
We hear of persons who make the
avOwal that in politics they are for
the man who, in turn, will be for
them, and that on this principle
they will support for our next Gov
ernOr either Ames or Powers, as the
case may be. Than this a more ex-
ecrable sentiment could scarcely be
imagined! A citizen, clothed with
the ballot for protection and secu-
rity of the public interests, unmind-
full of the sacred trust, takes care of
his personal interest, knowingly and
wilfully, at the expense and sacrifice
of the former. OF course such char
actors have their price, and as they
must think very meanly of them
selves, this price is apt to be small.
For a mess of pottage they will sell
their country.

Horrible Death.

On Tuesday evening, the 18th in.
slant, Mr.. George F. Cole, who has
been in the employ of w. q. Cham.
berlain, keeping his mill books, left
WinOna on foot to 60 home, some
seven miles north. He had been
intoxicated during the day. When
about two miles from town it is sup
posed he lay down on the track and
went to sleep. The passenger train
going north at 10 pm. ran over and
killed him. His body was terribly
mangletl and scattered on the track
for sixty yards. We suppose near
fifty different fragments Of his body
were found. His wife, living four
miles above, was duly notified, and
the body was buried on Wednesday.
He had no children. During the
day he had some $25 or $50, and
he had also two railroad tickets to
Canton. a pocket book and . knife,
none of which could he found where
he was killed.-WinOna Advance.
