FIRE OF THE ARMIES.

The deinolitioii ofthc houses in Sebasto- pol goes on, but it is not so sale to visit the place as it was l'oi~iiit-i-Iy, iusoiiiucli as the Russians now shell vigorou:sl_v, and throw shot at any (‘0nSitl0l‘:|i)lt! groups in streets. The Fri-iicli have two inortars, which belong, I believe, to the Russians, among the ruins of the Karaheliiaia, iuid boinb.ird the barracks in the citadel with great siicccss. 'l‘lie enemy, having (li>’t:u- vered the pi-rpzirations for throwing up bat- teries nt.'lll' Fort. Alexander and the ruins ol‘ Fort Paul by the French and English re- spectively, commenced a heavy tire from the nortlieru works and forts, which they continued throughout the day, and which at times aiiioiinted to o. cannonade.—Tlie French replied to it with vigour aided by some guns on the left. The Russians tired ti-oni Fort Michael, from Little Severnayﬂ. and froni the llarbour’i-i Spur Batteries, and their shot went crashing through the ruined houses, but did not create any very serious injury.

Two of the dauglitors of the late Professor Webster, who was executed for the murder of Dr. Parkman, have married into the fauiily of Mr. llibncy. an Aineriean, at Fayal, of great inﬂuence and fortune.

A great nuinler of the iiilizihitants ot't'.iat place have ali-t-ady iibaiiiloned it. That town had prolited \'\'l'_\' niatei~i:illy from the siege of Si-liiis-top:-l. .-lccordiiig to a letter of the 7t|i Septeinber, its population at that diite uniounted to 70.00.), and they were constantly iiiei-eas- mg by the arrival of persons of all denomi- nations, principally triidespeoplc. lt at last liecaiue impossible to procure lodgings. Rents were as dear as at St. Petersburg. Not less than 50 roubles (the rouble is somewhat uiidt-r4 francs) a—inonth were asked for ll place which before had been only worth about 1-10 roubles a-year. Firing had also become excessively dear, but bread continued at a moderate price, in consequence of the constant arrivals from New Russia and the distant provinces. The number of shops, which betoro 1855 was only -438, is now 800. At the late fair at Poltavii, two-thirds of the goods were purchased for Sinipheropol."

SINGULAR Swiss CUs'roM.—ln the large towns the t7llil(lt‘t'll oi‘ similar age and sex are gathered together by their parents in little SItt'.l(‘tl(‘.S called socirles dc: tlimam,-/us. Tlit-so. lit-ilc clubs are coinpescd of twrlve or ll-urtcen children, selected by the parents with a view to their mloptnrss to amuse and benefit each other. 'l'hey meet in turn at, the houses of the dill'orr,-nt parents every Sabbath evening. ’l‘h<.-ir nurses are with them, and the time is spent in ainuscments common to children. As they grow older these aniuscincnts are combined with in- struction. This kind of intimacy creates friendships which l.ist long after they are dis- persed and .'-ciittcred over the world, and even through life. Girls thus linked toge- ther in childhood retain their affection in miturrr life, and even in womanhood dis- tinguish each other by the the tonderap- pcllations of mi niigitoiinc, man ramr, man arige. This is one ,t_vrr.-iit re:u.~:on why the Swiss society so excliisive, and it is so dillicnlt t'or a straiiggcr to pi-c~=.~i beyond its mere litrtntllilifri. ‘ The rank ofthe husband in .\'wit'z':iln';:l dcpciitl«i altogether upon that oflu": xvii“, l ~v~ili.it-J_V on their mar- tinge he stow" K. t or ruiili, be it above 0! lwln-r that \v'Lut.2| ho lbriiicrly occupied.
