GENERAL FAVORITES* Tbeis ary people about Sip Sprit} whom eyetpmhs kptAn'to praise. As men they aro the "good fellows" of their own, the “degre" of the, “nice creatures" of the fsarer eei : its Wbmeii call tltem “Charm *>g” or "lovealile," and their sisters take *ti the echo and repeat it without jealousy, jfe oe knows exact)} in what the spell consists, for the French saying, “Plus on rauonne moin on at in#, ” holds good with liking ah well us love, and "tire reason why 1 cannot tell” is as often tine vague formula of the friend us of the foe. • t there is a spell, wheresoever it may VSsTaeJlma we are all brought under its influence. It is not only in sympathy; though jw> one cun lie a general favorite who has not sympathy. It is not only iu mental ability; though a stupid person can iieyor t|e glected to this pleasant post. Tact alone will not do it; though tact goes a good ways towards it; and wealth anil social position, though decidedly lending lustre to the crown when already forged, do not create it from the beginning. <ioqd temper; good taste; that sensitive ness which feds through others, if the ex pression may be allowed, and therefore al ways feels for others; 4 delicate and finely strung social conscience, against the dic tatest>f Which no Weil-bred person oau of feud ; hi ready kind of wit, always servicea ble, if not necessarily profound nor no tjoentijy sparkling; fcWt of all tic,so quali ties oombined is produced the General -.Ffjworite, the man whom all iglmiseand all wenhf-n love, tire ytomftn wlioin alt men love and whom all women praise. It is a nice point to hit. Jealousy priasseaso. Imrd an t the licclh f admiration,that the onust spot where the two are arrested and yet separated is one of the most difficult to strike in the whole social.plan. Hay that a woman' i* young, beautiful, and well placed in. the world; say that men crowd around her with the incense of ado-! ration, and that she aocepts the perfume j gracefully, and shows herself neither too j much eluted nor too deeply grateful; say ttlAfsha fltsesiWith jiust that Subtle in uH’iddaiisrti Vhffch ban fioukes fashion, but ! it is abandoned so soon as copied; which : is always different frmiwtlie style of evevy j other person in- the room, and which sin- I gles her out, not as remarkublo, eccentric, Xu.irryvliut merely individual aud harmo- \ ■ioafily witti herself. Web, in all this men. anunotpossibly lwvo any other part hub one of admiration. Bat the women ?---the dowdv Bister*, who-look like mopsticks by thesuie of her cloudy uud etheriul grace ? -the florid, who arc all coarse, flutter where oho is very rarely, wo do meet with aipretty woman, against whom so-one has a stone to fliug. Or if she has to undergo the lipidatiou which it is the Jot of all to suffer, i| is done so secretly, with attch fear of arousing 100 active a de fence, that the pretty pet suffers no harm, am? the plats; of General Favorite is un disturbed. For the most part, however, the Oen eralFavurite is on a somewhat lower, per sonal platform, Bhe is probably nice looking, because general favoritism de mands a certain universality of gifts, and includes the imperative need to admire from its votaries; but she is seldom more than nice-lookiug, handsome, pretty, ele gant only to the third degree, with votes ttmt vary according to the intensity of the personal liking she lias created; so that those who love her best consider her beau tiful ail through, and those who love her least understand that her mouth is ill formed, or that her nose is clumsy, that she has a slight cast in her eve, and that the lobe of her ears is decidedly out of I drawing. Still this does not tell against her elniias teb# one of the Ueaerol Favorites of Soci ety; ana even those who are most, critical will leave her drawing-room and say, “Mrs. 80-nnd-So wns looking positively ugly to day; hut how charming she was !*’ At times she triumphs over the disa bility of positive personal disfavor, and is a#onefra! favorite in spite of the fact that she is unmistakeably plain. In this ease she is sure to he exceptionnblv brilliant in intellect, quick in wit., of ready repartee, facile to receive impressions, but always able to- hold her own; so that she offers the excitement of a “resisting medium" whence sparks may Vie Ntruek, and is not only a hall of cotton wool where the keen est lances point is bnried, and which not the most brilliant effort can illumine. Clever, full of comprehension and full of sympathy, individual to the point of self- but not beyond, always ready to udrise with finite who are in doubt, and always sifre to give sound and steady counsel, suppressing her private griefs, her domestic troubles, her family cares, while in the world, and carrying thither as the “shot' fc ßhe pays for her own part the most perfect good humor, with breeding aDd tact as perfect, she goes through life os an nnenvied queen, whom i one seeks to despose, and before whose shadowy see pic e all are willing to boy. ho one can analyse her special charm, but all are oouscions of its existence. Other woman are more beautiful, more graceful, more learned, more softly sympa thetic, more keenly satirical, but none is so general n favorite. Anna gives more sumptuous entertain mtmts, r Mgri has a higher circle of ac quaintance, Julia is lovely to look niton, and not in the least degree conceited or stuck up; Jau* has m> superior in the art t>f conversation, or m the ease with which she can prit down a host (I rival wits; liaiim will mingle her tears with yours on the smallest provocatiou, and breathe soft dirges that shall be able to console you when your favorite "bully'' sings his last note, or your pet pug turns bis dying eves t yo-,ir. mul feebly Ticks your hand as his j adieu for ever; (Irsoe will rally you out of ! all your doleinl dumps by her cheery good humor; aud Mary will set yon at your case IU trying momenta, nod give you a comfor table impression of yourself that shall last you for life, by the marvellous nicety and perfection of her tact. Hut none of these come up to the Gen eral Favorite for that nnmelesa charm which makes her popularity; and while you uoknowlislgsrilieii' specific superiority you feel her generic supremacy, and are con tent to love, without explaining even to yourself why. So with men. 'Du re are men who seem to have been endowed by wane fairy with an antidote against ill-nature. Op]sments in politics ti ml rivals in business, there aro none the less General Furorites iu private. These arc men against whom no Thor siU* dare* to rail, no Zoilus eaw Andrea s Ons fur reproach. They have not a *]>ot on their ermine,not a flaw in'their escntch eon. Honorable and trusty, they fulfil one of the first duties of successful citi zenship in the blamelessness of their lives; and the same kind of nameless personal charm as that which adorns the woman with her power of fascination accompanies them also. No one pretends that they are much cleverer than other men, atjil in all proba bility they have little political or social power. They may even be younger sons, with their fortune to seek in the wilds of the future, but they are none the less General Favorites; and even rnnnaging mammas, whose prime duty consists in the successful investigation of well-found fleali-pots, cannot refuse thorn praise if they forbid them pudding. “Yes, hq hi a charming person,” they sav with womunly appreciation; but they arid the maternal reservation, "What a pity he is a young sou !” "If, however, it conies to an heiress who lias not set her fancy on a coronet, the General Favorite may liavo his cadetship supplemented witli gold; and the com ments of his friends, beginning, "Lucky dbg,' r are enre to end with “lie deserves it,” or "Tam glad of his good fortune.” For was it not said 1 before that the ability to disdain jealousy is one of (ho character istics of the General Favorite, anil the re sult of some of his or her most delicate mkl subtle qualities ? A General Favorite is never a mere good-natured fool, but ho may be a man incapable of saying “No,” however well endowed with theoretic intelligence. He can converse- well, and give sound advice where his feelings are not touched and he is not asked to help; else, lie is at sen, He is clever, well read, find his informa tion is copious and exact,; but he was born without a negative. From curliest child hood his part was to give. To' fetch and carry, to knuckle under, not for cowardice as much ns for ponce sake, and to avoid hurting the feelings of his friends, marked his path; and his manhood has been or dered after the same pattern. He is ev erybody’s stay in the hour of trouble, nnd his purse is his friends' harbor of refuge j wUt'U imrangd by the ti'Uipest of debt aud I the storm of egjhdftoif. He gives, always 1 jileasantly, always liberally, liiilig tlm ! jiersotinl inconvenience to tvliioh lii dona - tions may aubjeot liimaolf with a noble ; abnegation that is almost pnthetie. .So he lives, the General Favorite of his ; eirele, adored by women and children, j loved with an almost feminine tenderness by men, respected for the ipnoeency of iiis life, and admired all around for nttrnc tioim nnd pleasantnesses which dispense joy like sunshine aud receive love an the i harvest in return. And when lie dies bis friends lament him faithfully, and agree among themselves that they Hindi “never see liis like again,” and that lie was the "best fellow in the world,” and an “irre parable loss to society." * Asked why, no one can give a reason; only repenting in a circle that lie was a “General Favorite 1” —Danbioy Neie*. His Mother’s Spirit. In an essay entitled Notes on Ghost Ooplins in his recently published volume. The Borderland of .Science, Richard A. Prootore gives an instance of optical illu sion experienced by himself, which aptly illustrates the way in which a belief iii ghost might originate iu a superstitious age, or in any case where the person expe riencing tho illusion happened to have weak nerves or feeble wits. Mr. I’roc tore’s mother had died some months be fore the time of which bo writes—he was then a Cambridge student, and the scene of (lie occurrence was his college. “I had on one evening been particularly, I may j say unreaKonnbly, low-spirited. I had sat brooding over dismal thoughts. These thoughts lmd followed mo to bed, aud I went to sleep still under their influence. T cannot remember my dreams—l did dream, and my dreams were melaucholy— but although l lmd a perfectly clear re membrance of their tenor ou first w aking, they had passed altogether from my recol leotion the next morning. It is to be noted, however, that 1 was under the influence of sorrowful dreams when 1 awoke. At ttiis tuna tlu; light of a waning moou was: shining into the room. I opened my eyes, I and saw without surprise or ntiy eonoions. feeling of fear, my mother standing at the ! foot of the bed. She was not ‘in her lmbit as she lived, but dollied in white rmuite, j mystic, wonderful. ’ Her face was pale,; though not with the pallor of life; her ex- : presston sorrowful, and tears which glis tened iu the moonlight stood in her eyes. And uow a strange mental condition fol-! lowed. My reason told me that I was de- i oeived by apjH>arauco; that the figure I saw was neither my mother’s spirit uor uu ; unreal vision. I felt certain I was not; looking at a phantom of the brain which would show itself without,’ and 1 felt equally certain that no realty existent i spirit was before me. Tot the longer I j looked, the more perfect appeared the picture. J racked my memory to recall any objects in my bedroom vbich could be mistaken for a shrouded ghost, but my memory was busy recalling the features of tho,dead, and my brain (against the ac tion of my will) was tracing these features in the figure which stood before me. The j deception grew more and more complete, j I could have spoken aloud as to living ; person. Meantime, my mind had sngges-; ted, aud at once rejected, the idea of a trick played me by one of my college 1 friends. I felt a perfect assurance that whatever it was which stood before me, it I ! was not a breathing creature self •restrained into absolute stillness. How long 1 re-! i maiuod gazing at the figure I cannot re j member, but know that I continued stead fastly looking at it until I hud assured myself that (to my mind, in it* probably unhealthy condition) the picture was per j feet in all respects. At last I raised my ; head from the pillow, iutendiug to draw I nearer to the mysterious fignre. But it was quite unnecessary. I had not raised | iny head three inches before the ghoßt was 1 goue, aud iu its place—or rather, not tu its space, but fivo or six feet farther away I —hung my college surplice." "The tear* I which glistened in the moonlight,” Mr. j Proctore accounts for iu tins way: "Over !my surplice, I luul hung a rowing belt, and the silvered huchles (partly concealed by th* folds of the surplice) slumc iu the . moonlight." The Hair. Of all the charms which go to make up that indescribable thing which we call per sonal beauty there is none, lierlmps, more essential than “a fine head of hair. ” Hair, it has been well said, is to the human form what foliage is to the landscape; and though "love adds a precious seeing to the eye," which makes up for many deficien cies, yet who doubts that the most infatu ated victim ofenpid would find his passion suddenly cooling, should he behold its ob ject shorn of her locks I T!ie_llreok poets were wont to go almost mad in raving of beautiful liair; they were almost always chanting of hvarinimne locks, of cluster ing locks, or locks like tendrils; and Apti leius goes so far as to say that Venus her self would not be Venus, if she were bald. Certainly one would liardly be fascinated' by the otherwise divinest looking woman, if, where he looked for lnxnrinnt tresses, he discovered only a close-shaven poll. She might, in other respects, tread upon the very heels of perfection, but, however beautiful her eyes, her mouth, teeth, lips, nose,, or cheeks—however brlliant or be witching her expression, in conversation or l excitement —she wonld be positively dif agreeable without this crowning orna ment ot the form. In man the hair isnot only an ornament but an index of character. As the beard distinguishes man from woman, so its full and luxuriant, growth often indicates strength and nobleness, physical and in tetectnal; while a meagre beard suggests a dubiawclmrneter, partly masculine partly feminine. "Was there ever a truly great man,” asks a writer, “or one with a gener ous disposition, who had a thin beard and weazen face ! Ofi the other hand, show me a man with ‘royal loefcs, ’ and I will trust his natural impulses iu almost every vicissitude. When we see agermtAemau, upon whom Nature has declined to-set this seal of her approval, we cannot help' an in voluntary emotion of admiration for the virtuonsand preserving energy with which he must have overcome his destiny.” The author of “The Hair Markets of Europe” says; "Coarse, black hair and dark skin sig- nify great power of character, with a ten dency to sensuality. Fine black hair aud dark skin indicate strength of character, along with parity and goodness. Htiff straight lmir anil board indicate a coarse, strong, rigid, straightforward character. Fine dark brown hair signifies the combi nation of exquisite sensibilities, with great strength of character. Flat, clinging, straight hair, a melancholy but extremely constant character. Harsh, upright hair is the sign of a reticent and sour spirit; a stubborn and harsh character. Coarse red hair indicates powerful animal passions, together with u correspbnding strength of character. Auburn hair with florid coun tenance denotes the highest order of sen timent and intensity of feeling, purity of character, with the highest capacity for enjoyment or suffering. Htraight, even, smooth and glossy hair denotes strength, harmony, and evenness of character, hearty affections, a clear bend and superior talents. Fine, silky, supple hair is the mark of a delicate und seusative tempera ment, and speaks in favor of the mind and character of the owner. Crisp, cnrley hair indicates a liatdy, somewhat impetu ous and rash character White hair de notes a lymphatic and indolent constitu tion ; and, we may add, that besides all these qualities, there are chemical proper ties residing in the coloring matter of the hair-tube which, undoubtedly, have some effect upon the dispoeUion. Thin*, red haired people are notoriously ps*iiaaite. Now red hair is proved by analysis to con tain a large amount of sulphur, whilst very black hair is colored with almost pure oai'bon. The presence of these matters in the blood points to peculiarities of temper ament and feeling which are almost uni versally associated with them. The very j way in which the hair flows is strongly in- I ilicat,ive of the ruling passions and incli- j nations, and, perhaps, a clever person could give a guess at the manner of a; man’s or woman’s disposition by only seeing the backs of their heads." Supporting Another Man’s Wife. A somewhat curious case was before the general term of the Supreme Court last week. The appellant in the ease was Thomas 0, Shepherd and the respondent Leiuinetta Shepherd. From the facts presented in the case it apircars that when the respondent was married to Shepherd she was a divorced wife, receiving $(172 yearly as alimony. The marriage with Shepherd proving unfortunate, a second divorce followed, and an appeal to the court resulted in nu allowance to her of i $3,000 yearly as alimony from Shepherd. ! The lady, not daunted by her two nnsuc ! oessful ventures in double harness, took to herself a third partner in the jiersou of C. S. Anderson. Shepherd made application to the Special Term to be relieved from paying any more alimony, or at least, to have it reduced in amount. The Special Term denied the motion, and the ease was brought before the Gel)oral Term, and on Friday a decision adverse to Mr. Shepherd ! was rendered. The court held that in a ! divorce suit where the decree permits the wife to re-marry, as reward for her iuno l cenoo, the payment of the alimony by the divorced husband is not affected by her I subsequent marriage with another man. ! This opens up anew branch of industry 1 for enterprising females. They can find | some rich old codger, marry him, get di j voreed from him with allowance of alimony and then seek out another victim. A pretty, smart and pleasing female might in this way be receiving alimony from half duaen men, and then sho could marry the mau of her choice, and live virtuously and happily the rest of her days. It would e a pleasing subject to contem plate, that of half a dozen unmarried men contributing liberally to the support of one man’s wife. And yet there are people who say that our laws are unjust to the gen tler and inodester sex.—A’. I'. Dispatch. The Hum stOity si the Would.— Po tosi, in Bolivia, 8. A., is the highest city in the world, being at an elevation of j 18,350 feet, considerably above the level i iof the summits of many of the Alpine j 1 mountain giants, and only 360 feet below j the topmost peak of the icy Jungfran it self. This is a tolerably lofty altilnde for a city; but then Potosi is the metropolis of the richest silver mines in the world, j which are worked in the neighboring Cerra j (Sierra, or high ridge) de Potosi, at an altitude of 16,000 feet above the sea level, a greater height than the top of Mount Blanc; so that the abundance of the preci ous metals, we may suppose, compensates tlie 30,000 inhabitants (about half of whom are tlie native races) for the rarity of the air, the rapid alternations of climate, which presents the characteristics of tire four seasons every twenty-four hours, and the nigged barrenness of the surrounding districts. Petroleum lu gone down to $1 25 per ; barrel in the Pennsylvania oil regions, with prospects of going still lower. Immense quantities are shipped abroad, and the papers of the producing region are clamorous for an export duty oa that particular article. A tax of five cents a gallon, say they, would produce a revenue of fifteen million dollars a year, nine-tenths of which would bo paid i by foreigners. MIBCKLIAXKOUS ADVKRTIRKIiENTfL D. W.
