PR SENCE OF MIND IN CHILDREN.


A mere interesting case of true presence of
mind was seldom if ever recorded than the fol-
lowing which occurred some time ago in one of
the interior towns of Maine. A gentleman who
lived in beautiful villa a little retired from one
of the charming villages which every where
adorn New England, had gone with several
members of the family, on Sabbath morning, to
attend worship at the village church, leaving on
" three small children at home. The Oldest of
them was a son of thirteen years, the second
eleven. aud the third daughter Of nine. These
children were considered every way trusty by
their parents, who entertained no fears for the
safety of home during their absence at church
The time of the little ones was occupied with
moral and interesting books, as was common
with them when thus left at home, till toward
noon they thought they discovered symptoms Of
wood burning and on ascending the head of the
stairs found the whole upper part of the house
enveloped in smoke and flames. On going out
they saw the fire bursting through the roof in
every part, threatening destruction not only to
the house but to every thing in it.
There was now no time for deliberations
W hat was to be done was done instantly, and
quick as thought each child was at work as if
their several parts had been assigned them by
the wisdom of age, after mature deliberation.-
The elder boy mounted horse and rode with all
possible speed to the village to obtain assistance
there. At the same time, and with discretion
far in advance of their years the younger lad
and his sister set about clearing the house ofsuch
articles as their strength was able 70 remove
In the first place they secured their fathers pa
pers. Next they contrived to remove an ele
giant eight day brass clock, of much value. To
accomplish this they placed two feather beds in
front of it, and throwing it over on its face,
drew it out on one of the beds and thus remov-
it beyond the flames. After this they got out
the bods and bed-clothes, and next secured their
mothers wardrobe. Her china and silver ware
were then carefully put into baskets and placed
beyond the reach of harm.
Thus they kept steadily but calmly at work,
removing articles, giving each article priority
according to its value, till they were relieved
from their anxietes and tolls by the arrival OF
the family and neighbors from the Getting, one
or two miles distant. Nearly all that was done
on this occasion was accomplished by the cool
demeanor and unAinching perseverance OF these
two children, as, when the people arrived the
fire had extended TO every room in the house,
and rendered access impossible. Several times
they risked their lives to save articles which
they thought would be highly esteemed by their
mother-Boston Tfaceller.
