GRAFTON NANCY.
The Science Of Characfer-RcadinS
nv Handwriting.


Many people laugh at what is called
graptomancy, or the art ofjudglng char
acter by handwriting, and yet all &C.
knowledge that handwriting does indicate
something. Every one allows the differ
ence between man and a woman hand.
We hear people speak of vulgar hand,
a gentlemanly hand, a clerkly hand, and
50 forth. | had once, said Arch bishop
Whately, remarkable proof that hand
writing is sometimes, at least, an index
to character. had pupil at Oxford
whom liked IN most respects greatly;
there was but one thing about him which
serioulv dissatisfied me, and that, as
often told him, WAS his handwriting; 1t
was not bad as writing, but 1t had II
mean shutting character in 1t, which al
WAYS inspired me with feeling oil suspi-
cion. While he remained at Oxford
saw nothing to justi Y this suspicious; but
a transaction In which he was afterwards
engaged, in which | saw more OF his
character than | had done before, con-
vlnced me that the writing had spoken
truly. But | knew of a much more cur
lou, case, in which celebrated grapto-
mancer was able to judge OF character
more correctly by handwriting than he
had been able to do by personal observa.
sion. lie was on visit to friend
house, where, among other guests, he met
y lady whose conversation and manners
greatly struck him, and for whom he con-
ceived strong friendship, based on the
esteem he felt for her a u singularly
truthful, pure-minded and singIe-hearted
woman. The lady of the house, who
knew her real character to be the very
reverse of what she seemed, was curious
to know whether Mr.. Blank would be
able to discover this by Ter handwriting.
Accordingly she produced a slip of this
lady's writing (having ascertalned he
had never seen it, and gave 1t to him one
evening as the handwriting OF friend
of hers whose character she wished him
10 decipher. His usual habit, when he
undertook to exercise this power, was to
take slip of letter, cut down length
wise so as not to show any sentences, to
his room at night, and to bring 1t down
with his judgment in writing the next
morning. On this occasion, when the
marty were seated at the breaktast-tsble,
the lady whose writing he had uncon-
sciously been examining, made some Oh
servation which particularly struck Mr..
Blank Us seeming to betoken very noble
and thuthful character. He expressed
his admiration OF her sentiments very
warmly, adding ut the same time to the
lady of the house, "Not so, by-the-way,
vour friend" and he put into her hand
the slip of writing OF her guest which she
had given him, the evening before
over which he had written
the words, Fascinating, false and
and hollow hearted" The lady of the
house kept the secret, and Mr.. Blank
never knew that the writing on which
he had pronounced so severe Il Judgment
WAS that OF the friend be 50 greatly adj
mired.

THE PRESSED GENTIAN.
RY John GREENLEAr WHITTIER,


The time of gifts has come again,
And ON nv northern window-pane,
Outlined against the day s brief light.
4 christmas token hangs in sight.
The wayside travellers. as they pass.
Nnrk the gray disk of clouded glass;
And the dull blankness seems, perchancer
Folly 10 their wise ignorance.
They cannot from their outlook See
The perfect grace IL hath for me;
For there the flower, whose fringes
through
The frosty breath OF autumn blew,
Turns from without its face OF bloom
TO the warm tropic OF my room,
As fair as when beside it's brook
The hue of bending skies 1t took.
So. from the trodden ways of earth,
See IN some sweet souls VINO veil their
worth,
And offer 10 the careless glance
The clouding cray of circumstance.
They blossom best where hearth-fireS
burn,
To loving eyes alone they turn
The flowers of inward grace, that hide
Their beauty from the world outside.
But deeper meanings come to me,
NV balt.immortal flower, from thee.
Man Judges from IA partial view,
Nome ever vet his brotherknew;
The Eternal Eye that sees the whole,
Nav better read the darkened soul,
And find, TO outward sense denied,
The flower upon its inmost sac!

PoToMAc HEIGHTS. Feb. IA, 1876.
Editors Of the Register:
thought would pen you few lines
to let you know how things are on the
Heights. There is plenty Of mud here
and not much general news, only the
wedding of Potomac" and Betsy Cath
arine. 1t appears that they are going to
put on the harness, and tell you they
will make stsving team. His dad says
it is hard 10 part with him, but 1t is his
last chance and he has to lot him go. de
has one pup and Csthsrine has two cats;
so they are fixed for housekeeping. The
Potomac girls are taking it mighty hard
and tell you that Cathsrine had better
stay away from town. "Potomsc' Is
fine young gent, about forty years old,
about seven feet high, and supports tne
moustache OF about nine hairs on side;
so if the weather stays good look out tor
cards about the next new moon. Inc
weather is nice here now, and 1t looks
like old winter had gone. The farmers
are complaining about their sheep not
doing right, and pelting is pretty good
business, as l saw load going to your
city the other day. More anon.
Yours truly,
BRICK.
