At all times he must have been a handsome man But, strangely enough, when he entered the HOuse of Commons, in his 22d year, it was the beauty that seemed to point to premature death. “His face,” says Mr. McCarthy, “was pallid, aL most bloodless, and the palloy was brought into greater life by the abun dant and intensely black hair and the large, fiery black eyes tint blazed upon the world.” Different portraits of Mr. Gladstone form- an interesting study. The face that looks out from the portrait of 1832 is thin ; the lea* tures look sharp; the cheeks have the smoothness and moderate 'fulness of youth ; of the naoulh, beautifully shap ed, full, and yet not large, the domi nant expression is sweetness and tran quility, says Justin McCarthy. Ina. later picture one sees the cheeks <x. panding, the chin getting equ&rer, the brow heavier and the mouth stronger, larger and grimmer T|je expression is altogether one of serioueness and of frowning earnestness. And then, when on! comes to the portraits of old age, there is another and quite as great a transformation The heavy black lovks have, of course, disappeared, and Ibis brings oyl the enormous size of the bead, large in brow and in back ; the mouth appears, again, to be fuller than even iu middle age, and lb* whole lace haa broadiwed ; but tl e rxpreoion has .‘..st nil the stern and strenuous gravity <d middle age, as a'o’.t as the sWul suftnes-i of youth, aocl there is a genial emile, i.e of the warrior who lias done all his fighting and can new look with tome detach menl, ar d even with some humor, on the battlefield which knows him no more.
