The following pen portrait of the
new Secretary of State is not particu
larly fattering, but is said TO be true
TO the letter:
ssEvarts is a little fellow; thin as n
shad, wi, h as narrow a head as ever
topped full grown pair of shoulders,
and hatchety, Indian sort of face.
He suggests hothing SO strongly as
an animated tomahawk. A great
sharp nose ovcrshadows all the face
except the mouth, which is too wide
to be overshadowed. It's corners
(the mouths not the nose's) are
pulled down uLti the face is given
an unpleasant, vinegar expression,
which is not lessened by the black
ness of the cavernous depths out
of which the little steel-gray eyes
peer always with keen and watch
ful look. The chin is. as sharp as
the corner of a tomahawk. and in
shape is very like it. Custom
arily the chin is sunk npon the
chest, as though the thin neck
was too weak TO sustain erect the
weight of brain. He. generally
sits with his arms folded and has
the appearance os being always in
fit of deep medi' alton.
