The scene was most appalling, women and children scream ing, the men pale and aghast with horror. Two other mama laniories were struck, but without such disastrous conse quences, and some houses damaged, but so many rumours are about that it is not possible to ascertain so early the amount of injury done. INTELLECTUAL PRECOCITY.—It once happened that an anxious mother asked Mrs. Barbauld at what age she should begin to teach her children to read? "I should much prefer that a child should not be able to read before five years of age." was the reply. "Why, then have you written books for children of three?" "Because, if young mammas will be over bu=y, they had better teach in a good way than a bad one." I have known clever precocious children at three dunces at twelve, and dunces at six particularly clever at sixteen, One of the moat popular authoresses of the present ,te y could not read when seven. Her mother was ratherdidlearn unc omfortable about it, but said, that as every person at last.

OUR FIRST SWEETH BY ELIZA. COOS. " You must have a change, a decided change of air and scene," said our kind and skilful Aseulapius; " so just peck up your portmanteau, enlist your travel , ing com , panions, and start as soon as possible." We heard the sentence of transportation with as much piessure as our state of guff ring would permit, and form e d .a smell, but active "committee of management" imme diately. Being of the happy' disposition that can - , feel quite at home, at any -hour of the day, in a .grey tweed or striped gingham, the wardrobe soon yielded sufficient support for two mouths' vanity, and as we frequently incur a serious expostulation from divers friends, whereby any listener might learn that on the bonnet subject we are some indifferent as, to whether cur ribbon is worth a straw, or cur straw worth a ribbon, why it may be easily divined that our " luggage" was ready with much "fuss;" and then came the question, "Where shell we go?" "Suppose You try a farmhouse in Derbyshire." We shook our bead, despite the charms of Mensal Dale and the lovely pass of the " Dove," where we once wrote a number of sentimental stanzas while our companions devoured cold chickens and other " vulgar condiments." " Well then, whet do you thiuk of the Lakes?" Another shako of the head, "we iii you ge among the fields of Kent?" Another of Lord Burleigh's signs of wisdom, of a very decice. , 4. d character, watt given • for dearly as we love the rosy-lipprd cherry' oreh - •rd ' s, an ow low-haired hop d 1 • vineyard s of this - country, they are now incorporated with the remembrance of cold and mercenary spirits; that struck too Limn: a balance between their inte res t and our rye declined Kent with a very Significant '` No , " and waited f or another proposal. " What do you say to Brighten ee We hesitated for a moment, There ate a few small p rivat e reasons for our partiality to this place; but now It was the height of the fushitwe ble sea on there, there, w h en there are such cavalcades of ladies ' ll - ed gentlemen en h orseback, with dappled roans, end 1 . °l' culled piebalds, an d ur n ' ring cantereri and hiol-ste g o - - clog trotters, that the Ining'e-road and " Marine Pirajle form a caorpound of Rotton-row and Betty's Circus. There are such innumerable Master . Augustusses,. and 1'.14s Lauras, in goai- ear - rieges smacking their whips and. t eggieg at the reins with exuberant energy, though they have perstarded their fond mammas a low micutss previous that their dear little limbs were too exheusied with fatigue, to walk home. There are such dszz , ip ' heaps of " sapphires and diamonds found upon the seise" i n every third she reminding one of the jewel bon of a third-rate actress. And then the an the h ouse s ere , so consumptively tall and whi te , vi,itore s° thoroughly "blase "—all th e o ld men d look ing as though they vvere trying to be young, and all the young 113.e.11 looking as though they were try he old; all the old women wearing dark ring ing to " Tru , 2fiti," in • lets, which catry tell n ame of their gloss; and . ell very the young worse n carrying toms ' - ` l. havin g exposed their beauty to a :eerie sen!) lev.:rt •il, it Sleence than th e " moon ' s; " somehow, the whole Place stems redolent o f the unheelty regal per e fume of the first gentlema n i n E urt • po; " the trail of the gorged serpent seems over the place still, and we often that there is a want of f res h ness o f sou l and heart in the niajority of the people we r un ivartuth of heart fancy easiest,Then at Brighton one is sure to me e t th o ver y folks we car e least ,Le know, and one is asked to dine w i th t h e F rost', Purse-proud Harleys, or to spend an evening with the Cute,shallow flobsons, when we would much rather exist without th e fl atter i ng not i ce o f e i t h er. „ No, we w on't go to Brighton in the height of the sea son—so that's settled." Deve r , Ch e l ten h am, H ast i ngs, and To cos y, were ail objected to, and we suddenly de ter m i nt ei w abandon all f mnous Hygeian places of resort, and go and have a look at our fi rst rural home, in One of the wildest parts of Sussex. W e bad often seen our second country locality, but had never revisited our earliest paths am on g heat h and forest, wher e we pus sensed our first Peen and met our " first sweetheart." Away we went, forty miles of rail, and five of a cross read, took u 5 to our olden haunt ; and we will just give a few hasty r eminiscences of our i nc i p i ent life that ran over our brain during the journey, Our home at S r . Leopards had been a non d escr i pt sort of domicile --half an English farmhouse, halt a Gothic villa—situated in the tieighbourhood of a rabbit-warren, am id a va s t range of hilly and woody country, intersected with gurgling streams and large patches of cultivated land; sheets of golden wheat flashing out between dark brushwood slopes, and emerald fields of turnips, spreading at the feet of the tall frowning trees. A noble espalier pear tree, and a luxuriant vine, trailed all over tee white fronts, and many a clustering bunch of luscious purple fruits might b e seen in the autumn sunshine ripening on the gabled roof, resting its juicy weight on the patches of stonecrop, and causing divers speculations among the juniors of the household as to whether there was a possibility of reaching them from the top casements; and occasionally they did disappear in a most miraculous manner. There was a rude sort of garden spreading round, where carnations and cabbages, leburnams and lettuces, scarlet beans and sweet-williams, brocoli and black currants, rosetrees and radishes, sprang in plentitul and brilliant con tiguity; and there was one little corner where som e moss-covered flints, a spontaneous profusion of deckleaves, and an overhanging elder, afforded au asy lum for a couple of pet frogs, to the dismay of certain boarding-school-brid cousins who visited us in the mid summer holidays. One side of this Eden wilderness was hounded by a broad thread of lucid water, known as e ".tiller's Brook," across w hi c h, c l ose by the frogs' her mitage, were a couple of rough planks, terming a bridge, leading on to a fresh grassy bank, where flags, and rushes, and forget-me-note, grew thick and odorous, under the Oadow of poplars and aldees, and beyond lay rho " Long Water Meadows," with Dives's farm in the I distance. On the other side was an ancient rambling sort of orchard, inclosed with old grey paling, all covered with yellow lichens, and wefted with wiry ivy, with an occa sional azure periwinkle and red dog-rose peeping out, re minding 1. one o f Ire - ancy's blue ey e s and ru ddy cheeks playing with the wrinkled brow and silver hair of grand tether. Ay, that was an orchard! where bouncing 1 eat's-bead tipples shone their fists in the nigger -faces of muscle plums; where greengages, bursting with sugary juice, tumbled into the cool grass, and gipsy filberts rattled down about our ears with very gentle assistance; then the mulberries and the " swan's-egg" pears, and the damsons and the cherries—oh, much cherries!-- May-dukes and bigaroons, and blackhcarts and morellos, hanging like coral and jespar wreaths from the droop ing boughs, propped up here rind there by a broken red. Ah, whet mouths, what pinafores, what hands, used to be seen in that old orchard during the cherry season; what morning gluttony, what evening excesses, were carried on in defiance of all paternal au thority and serious prognostications of cholera and sud den death. We taught the very sheepdog; to mumble the delicious food, and old " Watch" was often seen with his grizzled muzzle deeply stained with the for bidden fruit—to say nothing of the pony having real nonpareils handed to him by dozens through a gap in the paling, and whelp espfuls of the finest " Orleans " being bestowed in munificent generosity on any ragged waverer who looked with longing eyes on our depreda tions. This paradise of an orchard led through a gatir into a lengthy sort of copse, the copse led into a clover-field, and the clover-field skirted a hare with luxuriant hedgerows, where bees, butterflies), and grasshoppers, made. essignatioue with the honeysuckle and sweet-woodruff; where the in fant- stragglers laid hid thetnielves among the wild briony and tall foxgloves, and eat threading "cheeses" from the mallow, or flieging ox-eve daisies at each other by the hour together. Abut is quarter of a mile down this lane, just at the commencement of the village, was the blacksmith's rustic forge 'and thatched (mimeo, where the ringing hammer made cheertel music, and as happy a family dwelt as one might meet in a day's march, and with whom we scraped an enthusiastic Dud immediate acquaintance. Widow Hewitt was a dear primitive old woman, with only two faults in th e world. The first, and by far the most terrible in our estimation, was an inveterate prejudice in favour of camomile tea, and the strength of her " prejudice was only equalled by that of the decoction. Her preserves were superb, and her applepies— ber real " apple-pies" —were something to talk about, putting to the blush the make-believe fashion of trumpery tarts, where an ounce of fruit is spread over, any quantity or quality of crust, with prison tars laid across, as if to protect the beggarly thing fat m in vasion; her cake was equal to her pie, and her home made wines were equal to her cake. Somehow we aeon got cn such terms with the old lady that we bad the run of ti certeiu corner cupboard, and revelled in gaspherry jam, greengage marmalade, and sparkling geesel T e i . i. ' but alas! there was a " bubbly jock" to our gastric the city ie the form of that horrible camomile t whichtlenefull do ,e dear old lady insisted on administering in n thin reace of of half a lint to every luckless being s w the aihrtiat,_ her prescription, no matter what neuralgia, — it could toothach, sprained uncle, 0 r tea. Camomile tea only be cured by camomile,,• t wa s necessary to was her " life preserver; I air we breathe; and as old exist ence, in her opinion, as the 4, It w . war a merciful Gimble the wheelwright said, take to quack pison-stuff on providence she didn't e Sunday. scho o l the same scale." She bribed th mouth; shepersuaded , children into its bitterness once a the landlord of " The Chequers that it wou ld remove ~ his grog blossoms; she made the dressmaker belie ve that it would " clear her complexion;" and it was as serted that she had attempted to dote the old foxhound " Music," when be came to theca a puppy with the dis temper. Certain it is that old Music always displayed active signs of disapprobation whenever be caught sight of the huge brown pitcher that held the elixir. and it is also certain that he scratched up the camomile flowers on the common with a force that savoured more of re venge than mischief.

COISTERDALE. The Derby Handicap would seem to have been made for one of the Earl of Derby's horses, Elthiren being the only opponent of any note. At the distance of a week, it is impossible to say what will start for the Liverpool St. Leger, but as Claverhouse is said to be a non-starter, the race would seem to be between Alfred the Great and the representative of Fisher's stable. The Knowsley Dinner Stakes, which will probably termi nate in a walk over, brings my observations on the Liver pool July meeting to a period.--I em, &C. July 9.
