A DOUBLE CONTRAST have seen a
beautiful face when in repose, every
feature of which was cut in the most ex-
quisite lines, with a moulding which was
perfect, and tints which were delicate
and rich. AS I looked upon it at rest,
1 said it was perfect face of a most
beautiful woman. She spoke, at length /;
and the words were coarse and unintelli-
gent. How the beauty fed, as the tints
Of rainbow die when a cloud comes oven
the sun
/ have seen another face, less beautiful,
and yet not ugly. Thought it pleasant
face, though not specially symmetrical
But when she spoke, the light of genious
and culture tipped the outline Of every
feature as the light of the sun sheds
back the lustre of its golden rays to tinge
with beauty the margin of the evening
cloud. How every feature CLOVIS with .
regal beauty, which defies imitation and
how far such beauty outranks mere
physical beauty.

nothing resembling the screws, except
the head of tomb "stones" on sale, in
lots to suit purchasers, yet in their prim-
tive color Of the galvanized metal, the
tint, whether marble, sandstone or gram
lite, to be applied when ordered Of brick

shortly casting its skin in vindication OF
its birth-right; Of marble tablets made
with brush upon lath and plaster; the
gig-saw, and pagoda architecture for the
display of "tinsel and frippery." Let
us at least require that nothing be war
ranted above its valne, and that fair
price be the assurance of thoroughness.
