THE MOUTH.
Human Character Revealed by the
Contour of the Lips.
From the London Mail.

From the London Mail.
According to a physiognomist the
lower lip is the most important part
of the mouth as an indicator of char
acter. According to its fullness, fresh
ness in appearance, and width it in
dicates benevolence and liberalty.
pale, shriveled, and narrow lower lip
reveals a decided want of these quail
ties.
There are thick under lips that hang
so that they become almost a disfg-
urement, and these, as well as looking
ugly denote Incidence and a love Of
luxury. Taking the opposite extreme,
however, it is not desirable to have
pronouncedly thin lips, for when the
outline of the lips is narrow and united
to a mouth with a sinister expression
there is indicated a great deficiency
of natural kindness in their owner,
want of warmth, and but little capacity
to love. Well defined and developed
lips. the outlines of which are rounded
out, are admired for their beauty and
moral worth, being. as they are, tokens
of a tender hearted, amiable, ana
sympathetic disposition.
Well closed lips are a sign Of discre'
ton. If the upper one is long, in ad-
dition to being pressed down firmly
upon the lower one, both mental ana
physical power appertain to their own
er. Supposing the upper lip is very
short, and the middle teeth of the top
row are constantly exposed. FOND
ness for praise is betrayed.
Frequently another type of mouth Is
seen, one in which the corners OF the
lips descend, indicating a person OF
Respondent disposition, prone to owen
overmuch dpon the serious side OF NE
But when the corners turn up in tne
form of Cupid's bow, their possessor
is of a bright and cheerful nature, az
ways finding a silver lining to ever!

FROM WATER FRONT
STEAMBOAT TWO STATES TO TAKE
A RUN AROUND THE HARBoR.
TO RUN TO AUGUSTA SHORTLY.
ANOTHER STEP IN THE FIGHT FOR
UP RIVER BUSINESS.

The Planters Line Claims It win
North When New Boat Goes Into
CommissiOn-Capt.L Lacey as n Far
mer-Matters of Interest to Ship
pers and Mariners.
Another move in the competitive OPP
erations of the Planters Line and the
Southern Transportation Company for
the up-river business, will be enacted
to-day by the trial run of the steam
boat Two States, which has just been
finished for the former company. She
will be taken for a spin about the har-
Dor, and if everything is found in sat-
isfactory working order. preparations
will be made to put her regularly on
the line between Savannah and Au-
gusta.
With the advent of the Two States
into the river fight, it is possible i'm
portant developments may follow IN
the present contest for business. The
Southern claims it has a cinch on the
through business. that is, the freight
picked up from the ocean liners. The
fact that the consignees of most of
this freight are stockholders in that
company, confirms them in the belief
that its present strong position can not
be assailed. Whether the Planters
Line is able to carry it's fight into new
fields remains to be seen, but it's man
ayers claim they have all arrangements
made for large through business from
the North, as soon as they announce
ready with their new boat. 1t is even
claimed that papers have been drawn
agreeing to give the company consign-
ments of freight. The advent of the

Capt. C. F. Lacey, of the schooner
Vanlear Black, will be remembered
among shipping men, with whom he is
we'll and favorably acquainted. Capt.
Lacey has been off several trips dur
ing which he has been pleasantly
spending the time on his farm in Jer
sey. While not on the high sea this
is Capt. Laceys hobby, and he is said
to have the same capacity to make 1t

sci a paying one. The Black comes
to Savannah this trip with coal con-
signed to Taggart & Co., and is dock
ed at their wharves to discharge.
