The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1888-07-28

None of the fathers of the republic
ever wore a beard. The appendage of
hair is not to be found on the face of
! any of the signers of the Declaration of
Independence, and it was unknown to
all the officers of the herevolutionary army.
Those men of great minds, IRON will
and strong purpose stood forth IN the
broad light of day with faces SO clean
that their every thought might be read.
THE CROPPED SIDE wHIsKER.
The war of 1872 brought no generals
to the front with boards, but all the
commanders of the navy appear to have
cultivated the "mutton leg" as it was
once called-the side whisker reaching
an inch or SO below the ear, but always
kept cropped. This is the whiskers we
find on the pictures of Perry, Balm
bridge, Decatur, Lawrence and others
and is the plant which was afterwards
built out and, in connection with the
mustache, became the Burnside" All
the principal officers of the Mexican
war were also beardless, although the
mustache and beard began about that
time creep into the army.
Of the presidents of the United States
John Q. Adams and Zachary Taylor had
a mere bunch OF hair, extending the
length of the ear. Martin Van Buren
had more of the "mutton Leg" which
curled forward, and being OF a sandy
color, gave that peculiar expression to
his face which caused him to be nick
nance "The Red Fox of Kinderhook"
or "Foxy" Van Buren. All the other
presidents had faces shaven of every
particle of hair, and up to 1861 no man
had occupied position OF prominence
in the national government who wore a
beard on his chin or a mustache. John
T.. Fremont, the first candidate of the
Republican party for the presidency,
also cultivated his entire cheek and chin
space for hair, and Abraham Lincoln,
his successor on the ticket four years
later, and the first Republican president,
also Wore full beard.
The cabinet which Lincoln assembled
was composed largely of bearded men.
The despised abolition sentiment had
obtained the ascendency, and men by
the thousands who ten years Eefore
would rather have been caught burning
house than raising a beard, threw
away their razors and turned their faces
out to nature for coverings. The officers
in the field Of both armies let the beard
grow or cut it in shapes to suit their
particular fancy or appearance, until a
smooth faced man became almost as
rare as hairy one had beeI few
months previous.
Presidents Grant, Hayes and Garfield
all appeared in full boards, and we all
remember the luxurious Burnsides of
Chester A. Arthur, the pre- -eminently
gentlemanly occupant of the White
House. Cleveland is the first president
that ever was elected backed by mus
tache only.-MeW York Press.
