ONLY A BEAUTY..
ll:Mina Sinclair was the beauty of Willow
Grove, and she knew it. Every look snit
grsture,•and even the carriage of her head,
was studied. When she was at a party she
was continually thinking of the effect she
produced; and When she was at home ~he
was planning some new ornament to wear in
public.
Of courac she had many admirers. 546
e Dahl never walk half thelength of the prin %
final street without being joined by some
'gentleman; and at a dancing assembly she
was sine to be engaged, for every set before
she had been in the room ten minutes. In
thu summer there was always a brisk compe
tition for the honor_of her company ata pie-
air. And yet, , omehow, she wo. Still tilt
married.
Her school companions-, one after another,
had - settled in lite but ,he was left
alone, of all the number—it' we except !Mol
lie Newcomb, who, trom shyness and exces
sive phi n less, Was generally :et down as
(to lain to die an old maid.
' It Until must be ,told, Emma was exces
sively particular. Her notions , of herself
were so high that she thoug i ht bet few suitors
good enough for her. At last, howeve'r,
witch George Budd returned froth Europe.
and settled down in the large 'old marfflon of
his family, the Grpve agreed that the beauty
had found at last a lover equal to her ideal ;
for lie was both rich ' and thlented and be
longed, beside, to the most aristocratic set of
the country. •
George serum d to have been conquered by
her charms the very first lithe they met. He'
danced with her as frequently •as ho dared,
and when not dancing stood apart stealing
glances at her ; he hung over - her when she
sung, and accompanied her home. The next
day he called upon her* as soon as etiquette
permitted, and on Sunday appeared with
Emma at church. Everybody said it was an
engagethent, for if be was fascinated. she ap-'
peared no less so.
But all at once G'eorge•Budd ceased his at
tentions to the beauty of the village, and was
soon beheld as assiduous ;n his attentions to
Mollie Newcomb, as he had ever been to her
more beautiful rival. Everybddy was as
tounded eNeept a few elders of the place,
with whoin Mollie had always been a litvor
ite.-who shook. their heads, saying it was just
what they expeeted,lor that Mollie's amia
was a thousand times better than Em
ma's beauty,
Let us' 100k..0n George, as he sits chatting
with a confidential friend, and hear the raid
cause of the change.
` , You must know MoWe." he said.
is modesty personified ; yet her talents are
extraordinary, and her amiability and ac;
complishments 'as - gitat. , .---Indeed, her modes
ty, by causing shyness, makes many think
her plain ; but plain she is not, at least 10
those who knots' her; fin. in familiar conver
sation, the enthusiasm of her soul kindles
her countenance into a spiritual beauty that
is indescribable."
"You were score out with the beautiful Mho
Sinclair, of whom volt wrote so ; rapturously
the first week von-spent here." George
blushed a little, lot be felt how foolish he had
been, as he re - plied
- ties she s -dazzled me for awhile, but I
soon found nix error; though J caluot for
give myself for.being duped, even for a week,
by a pair (It' tine - eyes and a covette's artificial
manner."
"Is she merely a beauty ?"
"Yes, merely a beauty. All she thiiiks
about is how she looks. Her mind is amere
blank ; or rather a shallow stream, of which
one gets the plummet immediately."
';Yet you seemed so enraptured at first, that
I fear she may have begun to like you."
George laughed."
"No tear of that, my good fellow ; she loves
herself too intensely ever to love any man.
Alt' what a contrast between her and Mollie.
It is like passing front a crowded, close ball
room, With its glare Of gas, and its hum of
meaningless conversation, to' .the for air of
heaven, with the ,birds singing the waters
gurgling, and the sunshine sparkling around
you."
"You tire poetical."
I "And so 'you will be, too, It lien you know
Mollie -Bid Caine, put on your hat it is
time to go`there, and I want you to be quite
intimate 'before yon return to he my grooms:

I A month from that-time George Budd mar
tied Mollie 'Newcomb. The bride really
I looked beautiful on that auspicious moniiinr,
and what is more, has been growing more
lovely ever since. Would you know why?
Because an intelligent mind, united to a gen-
Mild heart, is the, creator of beanty, even
where it does not originally4xist.
3lks Sinclair is now a faded old maid,
.with sunken. eyes, a skin' iikN, parchment
mild the sharpest of noses IIeP face has a
sour anti discontented loot, which increases
1 with her years. Ever since, she lost George'
Budd she has been secretly at war with the

world.
Now, then, reade4, which is the better—to
be, plain and good, ot merely a beauty We
kayo it to your special consideration.

iMr. P., a wealthy man retired front tit Ai

were apparent. "Yon are right." said be, "as

ALOVE - STORV
twenty miles from •New York lives
a rich man, who has a lino estate, and an in
teresting, family, of which the eldest is a
beautiful young lady, her father's pride and
hope. Last year, while his elegant mansion
was building, a voting carpenter who bad
just finished his trade, and whose- :•ole pro
pertv consisted in a paw of large hands, a
snil, good heart, and habits of industry and
tame to work upon the • premizes
Very naturally, the young 'knight of the
br , iad-axe soon, fell in" love with the, vnung
lady, and, not strange to say, the young lady
wit:- equally pleas-d with him. She spent
considerable time •every day watching the
progress of the weak., particularly that per;
formed by theyoung weelianie, and lie foam]
his greatest incentive the joy_'“l" working
under the•wateh of het loving eyes. •
The secret, however: soon became an open
one, and filially was broken td the. young
lady's father'. He heard the sad news with
out apparent concern, Moja a few moments
set off for the ,village, where he made dill=
gent inquiry respecting theyouug carpenter,
who, he learned, was the only son and sup:
pal of a poor widow,bit was an intelligent,
capable and promisir ' , young man.
The father returned home, and calling his
daughter to his room, asked her how the
matter stood between -herself and the young
carpenter. It was a critical moment to her,
and for a moment her fears triumphed over
her feelings, and - she burst into tears. The
tears were followed by a eonfeqsion of an at
tachment, which had grown stronger every
du, with the fear that it was doomed to a
cruel disappointment, for thoobject of it Was
nothing but a poor mechanic. "lint I love
him with-all my might, and would give my
life for him," said the' honest girl.
"Does he h eiprocate ,your affeetionit?"
asked the lather.
"That he does,"replied the daughter; "but he
; knows thatyou would never consent to have
him pay his addtesses to me,' nd he has been
very reserved about it. He talks about go-
Ling. away because he cannot live here with
: out seeing me, and thinks vbu would be tin•
willing to have him visit the house.
•The father sent liar the "young carpenter,
who came to the room with the greatest tre
' lie suspected what was in the
j wind, and. anticipating an immediate drs
missal, his heart was in his throat when the.
father said La him :
"Young man, how is it that you dare to
carry on a ftirtatiot with my daughter with
out consent 1"
"That is false, sir, utterly false," the young.
flan replied. "Your daughter came to the

It is rather a remarkable thct that our•list
of Prt silents, chosen every four years, should .
have dwindled down to a solitary survivor.
It significant that the earlier .p,e,,itlents
lived notch longer in retirement. alter they
had left the Preslilentlal chair, than those of
modern days. The reason is easily account
ed tin . . The Presidential ollice, in the into
- of the Republic, was romp3rativvly a
small affair. Now it is tl to most laborious
and responsible evl.cutive position on the
face of the earth. The immense appointing
power lodged in his hands, is every year in
creasing, until it has become burdensome
and exacting in the, last decree, and, super
added to his other great duties and responsi
bilities, is well calculated to Wear Out iron
the hardest constitution. -
