OPHELIA. —A very active temperament, both mentally and physically, is pourtrayed in your specimen of ealigraphy. You are energetic and industrious. keeping your appointments.and business-like in arranging and organising your own affairs, without any attempt at interference with those of other people. Perseverance is accentuated by the long crosses to your •t’s,’ and the final letters. Determination is also plainly perceptible. You decide quickly but your perception is clear, and your judgment guided bystrong practical sense, tou are not impressionable, and only sufficiently imaginative; therefore you require to be convinced of the sincerity of a grievance before you bestow sympathy on the aggrieved, and even then you feel more than you express, as you are reserved when conversing with strangers, although chatty and amusing on general topics. Aou are a sincere and affectionate friend, trustworthy and reliable, as you are not swayed hither and thither by the breath of public opinion. When you resolve to accomplish a purpose, tenacity- supplies resource, and you do not easily- relinquish the idea of obtaining your wishes. Your efforts are frequently directed by unselfishness, and if not extravagant, you despise parsimony and avarice. Your temper is quick, but you possess so much control and sel'f-containedness that I infer that it is kept in subjection; your spirits are equable, and although self-esteem is very moderately- represented, your resolution and strength of mind render you not readily discouraged or depressed. MARCELLA.
