Female Identify. The sta ndard of Ijeaut y in women , (says the Two World*,) diff ers widel y in different countries. The (i reeks admire the slender and gracefu l Conn ; the Moors value theni fgr their obesity. Indeed , in mimy par ls of Africa they are fattened up for the inntriiponia l market , and the value of their charms corresponds in a precise ratio with their wei ght.— But this contrariety of tastes does not* app ly to na- tions onl y. It is almost equ all y va rious in the indi- viduals which compose them ; and this is one of the great oonsei'Vittivus of luirnj ony and peace in tlie so- cial relati ons of the sexes. It is a happy and .wi se ordi nation of Providence. Were all j ud gments alike irrtbis respect , the siune obj ects, comp arativel y few , that approach the beaiwdeal , would be soug ht for by all , ami a strugg le that wo uld convulse societ y woidd ensue, But happ il y ir>r proportion, to the great diversify of fo rm , complexion , size a nd char- acteristic mann er is the in finite , variety of tastes. Imagination deeply imp lanted in the breast of man , often in a pa rticular case ,endo ws with the attribute * of loveliness , forms and featu res that the world call not fair , and perhaps those faces a re the most tonch- ing ly interesting and ejj pi fssiyp that lire pot com- formable in ou tline to the strict standard of beauty. Vivacity often lights up featu res the least attrac- tive «t first sight , and expressio n , wheth er pensive or intcle c-tual, steals away the . hearts and sways the ju dgment of men. Thus beauty, except in its ar- tis tic phases, can rarel y be reduced to a uniform standard , But such is the hi gh estimatio n which men hold of this cj nalit y,~s,o associated is it with the inspirations of the poet , and with music 's soft and impassioned strains , that we can not wonder that most vfqmqn gene rall y attacli to it s possession so mu ch importance—more particularl y as it, feeds two princip les often jnheren t ' to their natnre .vanily, and the ]o ye of sway, Beaut y is also a quality the " more prized because it is rare and transient. The refore, to adorn themsel ves by all the artfi cial aids of dress! is not only-wi accordance with th p dictates of a nat- ural refinement and taste , but also of a policy well adapted to acco mp lish their aims, Jt is not to be condemned if it transcends not its due lim its , and ii the more estimable and sterling qualities are not sacrificed to its indul gence. LADIES' DEPARTMENT. Wa havo a friend-ran excellent husband and dot- ing father—who came into our office the other day looking rather sleepy. "What is the matt er with you ?" we enq uired.
