REMARKABLE NJ MEMoRY. There is negro
girl in Brucctown, Ky, about pine years OF age
whose mcmrry is truly marvellous. Her woD-
dertul powers were first brought to the notice
of "a white man, who keeps a grocery IN tha,
part OF the city, about two weeks ago. tie
had been reading aloud 10 her presence the
day before, and accidentally heard her repeat,
ward Tor word what he had read from the pa
per, though tWeuty-tour hours had interviewed.
After this he tested her memory frequently,
aud has found her capable Of repeating thirty
or forty lines from book after hearing it read
once over. Her intellect in other respects does
not seem at all above if equal to, the aver
aye. Such instances of memory are not very
unusual. Mary Summerville tells Of au idiot
III Edinburgh who never failed to repeat the
sermon, word for word, after attending the
kirk each Sunday, saying, Here the miuis,er
coughed;' Here he stopped to blow his
bose. She also tells OF another whom she
met In the Highlands who knew the Bible so
perfectly that if he was asked where such a
Verse Was to be found be could tell without
hesitation, and repeat the chapter.
