Mrs. Hendricks is "a woman Of much
general Intelligence. dignity Of eharac-
ter, quick perceptions, sound judgment
and generous impulses. Her manners
are frank and genial, aud she IL original
and brilliant In conversation. Her
principal charms are sunny, cheerful
disposition aud n heuft siDgularly free
from distl ust and wofldiuess. She Is in
every respect the pnr OF her husband,
and is admirably fitted to grace any
position to which he may be advanced.
In person she Is OF medium height, and
has IL graceful figure and elastic step.
She Is very fair. has black eyesand hair.
regular features and an extremely ami
mated face. The bloom Of youth, in
tiue. Is more than replaced by the grace
aud mobility OF expression, betokening
the heart and MUD ever alive 10 the best
influence OF nature and association.
How such woman dresses may be
inferred. II could not be otherwise
than In exquisite tnstc, both in regard to
person and occasion.
Gov. Hendricks also dresses In good
taste. For some reason he cannot ex-
plain he always buys his clothes in
Baltimore, and it is no compliment to
say the Baltimore tailors do full justice
TO his fine figure. Not quite six feet in
UflRnl, UG lS thttbituSly WSll ohbAt
having fine figure. shapely limbs, and
small hands and feet The right shoul-
der has little Of the scribe lift, the
head incllning to the right, and in
speaking he gesticulates more with the
right hand than the left. His voice is
pure and melodious, and his English is
the purest Anglo-Saxon. excepting
when he Is betrayed into Southern full
ness Of tone. His head and face have
changed IL good deal in the last four
years. They seem larger. The fore
head Is broad and smooth. and the
cheeks slope gently To the chin, which
Is innocent Of beard. The mouth is not
large, and the lips are thin. 1t Is
altogether classic mouth and chin,
with a nose well formed and delicate In
expression. The eyes are blue, mixed
with gray, expressive OF more reserve
than penetration. 1t Is only In the first
lancillating gaze that they betray in
terest and caution. Beyond that they
tell no tales, and no doubt see and not
see t" more than Ia generally suspected.
The hair ID Scotch brown, In harmony
with the fair complexion. 1t Is q fair
specimen OF Roman head poised on q
manly figure, the perfect proportions OF
which are revealed In the majestic walk.
The face In repose is free from wrinkles.
In conversation 1t lights up amazingly,
and Ia accompanied by u pleasing
Difference Of manner. This Difference
Of manner has done more than any
other quality TO give him the reputa-
ton OF Talleyrand His excessive
caution enables him to get ut the
opinions OF others, rather than give ex-
preston To his own.

meaning being that u sudden cooling OF
the body is likely to induce bad colds,
which are harder to cnre In summer
than In winter. It also says that ice
water should be drunk slowly, with q
pause after each swallow. Hot tea is
recommended because the debility and
downward progress OF the system is ar
rested by the warmth OF the water and
the stimulating quality Of the tea, until
strength begins to be impaired 10. the

to offer him pecuniary sustenance In the

THE GOvERNORSHIP.

Editor Democrat In the throes OF
mutual anxiety in which most Louisi-
anians find themselves in the frantic
desire to see men Internationally pro-
ferred, there seems to be an almost
total abstinence of any disposition to-
wards the recognition OF those qualiil-
cations for success which should be in
herent in that man OF whom is enter
tained hope OF success In the coming
campaign.
The qualifications deservedly CON
spicuous in candidate for public favor
are courage In the pursuit of right.
honesty OF purpose, and that political
prestige which will attract to itself the
vote OF the people of whatever class
who wish for honesty, reform, ability
and economical management Of guber-
Material affairs.
In whom will we find those principles
more strongly expressed, and more
staunchly upheld, than In that gentle
man without fear and without reproach.
the Hon. John 9. Moncure? A man
who ia the dark and dreary hours of
the States adversely, unactuated by
hope OF moneyed advantage, flourished
the banner or right In the scared coun-
tenance Of Radicalism sustained by
military force and coercive Of the peo-
pies rights. Anan In whom Is coDcen-
trated more strongly than in all others
OF political prominence, that antago-
nism to wrong, that devotion to truth,
that disgust OF prevailing national sen
timent which most characterize those
men who feel the want or an aggressive
attitude against corruption in Office and
slippery politics.
He Is not u man who, like the imbe-
| cile front OF the Cincinnati Convention,
Emerely affords an opportunity for ac-
tive vice, TO prevail under the passive
virtue assumed in high place, but a
man who, when the clarion notes Of
duty will fall upon his gladdened ear,
will arm himself with eagerness In the
cause OF right, and attack vice in Its
very strongholds.
DO we want, In performing an act Of
national justice, a man who has signal
lied his career by zeal and fidelity TO

and who is openly and indisputabiy the
enemy OF oppression
Are the people Of Louisiana In search
