The extraordinary manifestation OF
the loyalty Of the subjects of HE most
blessed majesty, Rex, king OF the car
nival, witnessed last February, upon
the occasion Of his majesty's first entry
into his royal and beloved capital OF
Dallas, should remind the faithful that
his majesty desires probably to make
his annual visit again with becoming
pomp and magnifcence. Certainly
nothing could add more to their enjoy
ment, as well as the prosperity OF the
royal capital, as a visit from his mos
gracious majesty.

HENDRICKS,
Baltimore Gazette.

Gov. Hendricks is a man of medium
hight and symmetrical form. He is
erect, active and vigorous. His face is
manly and handsome. The features are
large and expressive, and while there is
a soft, gOOd humored expression in the
large blue eye and in the mouth and
dimple chin, the brow, forehead and full,
heavy Jaw show wisdom and resolution.
His complexion is ford, and his hair
and side whiskers are yet untouched
with gray. He looks like one who has
lived happy life, encountered no great
sorrows and yielded to no great vices,
Though he has for years been taught to
regard the presidency as within his grasp,
his ambition has been rather a sort of IA
tiOnal longing for the honor than an in
satiable thirst for power. His DISPOSE
ton is as sunny as his complexion, and
in social life he is great frvorite. To
acquaintance he is affable and easy, to
close friends warm and lovable, to po-
htical Partisans courteous, but cautious.
He would rather cOnciliate an enemy
than Oblige an ally. His habits are such
that he found $4,000 a year ample for
his expenditures during his senatorial
term at Washington. He has always
trusted to doing the work which he had
in hand as well as the highest recon-
mendation in the long run before the
people, and the many honors which have
come to him seem to have been con-
quered without great effort Gov.
Hendricks belongs to the protestan
church.
