PRECOC{TY ~ CRIUE.

There are anomalies to which the world
never gets accustomed. A youthful criminal,
for instance, is continual surprise. The Old
offender, the hardened sinner, the wretch who
has taken his degrees in crime, or the tainted
from whom nothing better WAS expected, are
regarded by us with stolid equanimity. We
respect the adage which declares that 10
one can become altogether vile at once;
and yet police reports, not less than the
many penal institutions for C,liow coNicts,
show that there is no crime which young
person may not commit Every city has lis
"hoodlmns," though the noisome tribe seems
to have been most remarkably developed IN

Reports from the inundated districts at the
West are OF course gloomy. Bat though
there has been great destruction OF crops along
the line of the Ohio, Wabash, and other
rivers, il is confined to long but comparatively
narrow areas, and the heavy rains have else
where been rather OF benefit than otherwise.
The prospect Of heavy crops, as a whole, from
the gran-raising States. can scarcely be much
modified By these disasters.
