shown by his colleagues OF the later date.

HIS WIFE AS HE SAW HER.

as She Appeared to Him.


as She Appeared to Him.
Burke was sustained amid tie anxiety
aud agitation of public life by domestic
felicity. Every care vanishes," he said,
''the moment enter beneath my own roof.
His description Of his wife is too long to
quote, but we must give en- epltome OF it.
OF her beauty, he said it did not arise from
features, from complexion, or from shape.
"Sbe has all three in a high degree, but it
is not by these tnat she touches the heart; it
Is all that sweetness of temper, benevolence,
innocence, and sensibility which face can
express that forms her beauty. Her eyes
have n mild light, but they I'VE you when
she pleases; they command, like good man
out Of office, not by authority, but by
virtue. Her stature is not tall, she Is not
made to be the admiration of everybody,
but the happiness of one. She has all the
firmness that does not exclude delicacy she
has all the softness that does not imply
weakness.
''Her voice is a low, soft music. not
formed t. rule public assemblies, but to
charm those who can distinguish company
from a crowd; IL has this advantage, you
must come close to her to hear it, To de-

few years can know tne world better, no
person was ever less corrupted by that
know edge. She has true generosity Of
temper, the most extravagant cannot be
more nbounded in their ibe:ality, the most
covetous not more cautious In their distribu-
tion. Her politenesS seems to flow rather
from a natural disposition to oblige than
from any rules on the subject.
at is long before she ch oses, but then it
is fixed forever, and the first hours Of ro-
mantle friendship are not warmer than hers
after the lapse of years. As she never dis
graces her good nature by severe rehections
on anybody, so she never degrades her judg-
mont by ilnmoderate or ill placed praises,
for everything violent is contrary to her
gentleness OF disposition and the evenness
OF her virtue"
