Grace, who has been on & lecturing tour in the West, is thus sketched by "an Indiana editor: Height rather below than above the average. Complexion dark. Hair, by gaslight, raven black and wavy, with a natural propensity to curl. Face rather long, with a high, beautifully moulded forehead, and twin arched ebon brows. Very large brown or black eyes, capable of great power of expression. Nose large, straight, and well formed; cheeks just nlittle thin; mouthsmall, but; the lips a trifle too thin, the most pleasant feature of her face; chin well devel- T d, and indicative of dashing energy character. Like Halleck’s Fanny, Grace was prettier once than now, her ago approximating—if we may venture on so' delicate a subject—forty, though she is by no means destitute of attract tiou.' But will warrant that twenty years ago she was a dashing, imperioui beauty, the wild light of whose eye Aj$yea the deuce with masculin hearts. She was dressed last evenin in block silk. An unpleasant lisp ma: the effect of her speaking nt first, bi soon ceases to attract as she proceeds. Wc could detect no strong minded in- cations, either in her lecture, dress, manner, but should judge her to be liighly intellectual, accomplished, ohi sensible lady.‘ A Thuringian Batcher. An extraordinary affair is related in Frankfort journal: “A female, after being twenty-one years in the service iff a butcher at Frunkerihabstto, to Thur ingia, left him a few eventnet hack, taking with her a sum of two hundred thalers, which she hod saved up. After walking some distance, she met two gendarmes, and after telling theta that she had tlije money in qxeeboa to'.her pocket, expressed a fear, os night had . set in, she might be robbed in a Wood through which she had to pass; but tha officers told her that there WM no danger, as they boa just been to tho wood and had seen no ouapicious cha racters.

Near her was a large knife, with which the crime, had evidently been netpotrotod, and a* it was one of those which butchers use,he conceived the suspicion that the murderer might be theWototm’n matter. He accordingly cod* at Mice to the butchers house, and.seating him self at a table, asked to be allowed to eat his supper. At the same moment he placed the bloody knife befbre him, ana one of the butcher's children eafcd, ‘That is our knife.' Two br three Min utes after the butcher himself entsasd. He turned deadly pole on seeing Iho knifeand the officer. When accused of the murder be could not deny hii (guilt, and gave up two hundred Insanity tub ^Result or a Joke. There is now-in a female lunario at, lum at Hammersmith, says the Londoi Court Circular, a lady of exquisite, bea' ty, who was driven mad by being su denly startled by her maid. The Iady’i name is II , and slio resided witf hef husband, Mr. H , a wealth; sharebroker, at a splendid maneion i: Cavendish square. One evening, abaui six tyeelts ago, she strolled in the dus' into her husband’s library to procure book, ThoTady’s maid saw her ent tho apartment, and in a mere frolic co cealed herself behind tlio curtains longing to the window, until her tress had placed her hand upon th work she came In search of, when sh suddenly sprang upon her with a lou< shout. The lady was so astounded by] the shook, that Bhe was struck alrnos senseless. Delirium ensued; confirmer madness followed, which has ever sine- continued without abatement, to a de-l gree dangerous to all who come nearj iicr. ller propensities are fierce and vicious; slm tries to bite at all approacli her, and it is moro probable she will never recover her son. • ‘ lAjrAn irrasoiblo old Gentleman mi takep with a fit of sneezing in the oars lately.
