An amusing Incident took place daring their
rrmoVal from town, a large hamper of glass snd
ohloabad arrived from town by the carrier one
mornit)g, ftnd tbe conCfcore, being nrpnoked, were
taredlnto the wall, end when ell this weigitwas*
pnt on it, of coarse It came suddenly down with an
alarming craeh My fither. wbo was witblu bear*
lug. s«oji ctijuo to tho scene of action, or rather
fraction, and, after coolly surveying thp damago,
very qmetly sent l|ie maid t«» her mispress vita the
message ‘that the china which oeme vp in the
morning. bad come down in the evening ’ This, to
his great amusement, brought my mother, in a
Btato of ntter mysHUoai|i»n> to tpe soeqo of the
oatastropho They were, however' both obeerful
people, and tho breakage <nres borne with tolerable
philosophy on both rides M
Like Scott and Wordsworth, ho had no ear
for music, Tho only song he ever attempted
was picked up from an «ld sea-lieutenant.
Quaint and iharucteristlc enough it was. It
ran somehow in this fashion:
*'' the mackerel,
"With hi* Ftriped baoi;—
Ea»s he. ttetf in tho nnuna'l, and haul on the tack,
For it’swind> wea'her—
It’a s'ormy wo»ther—
And when the wind l>!e.*a pipe a 1 hands together,
For, upon my word, it is wind? weather!’ ”
His daughter says': “ This Is the only verse
that remaius as a family tradition of tho song,
but, if I remember rightly, it brought in tho
suggestions of the various fishes for sailing tho
vessel. Now, my father, curiously enough,
with the most delicate perception of the Rhythm
and melody of versifying, and tho most acute
instinct for any jirrlng syllable or word, and
peculiarly happy in the musical cadence of his
own poetry, had yet not tho slightest ear for
music. He could not sing a tune through cor
rectly, and was rather aroused by the defect
than otherwise, especially when a phrenologist
once told him his organs of time and tune wore
very deficient. My father used to say on tho
Very rare occasions on which he was ever
to sing, that ho chose this particular
song because if he may out of tpne no ocp
could detect him, especially as he mado a point
of refusing all ffreortf.” fpien twitted with
havlogno musical enthusiasm, by one who had
delivered hlmeelf a rhapsody on tho « concord
pf sweet sounds,” Hood retorted, “Ob, yes,
I do know It—it's like turtle-soup—fbr every
pint of real, you meet with gallons of mock,
with calves 1 heads in proportion.” One dis
covery he did rpako \n tpuaic, lyblph was that
you cannot play no the black keys of a piano
without producing q Scotch tnqo, op wba* will
very well pass for ono.
As fond of practical jokes as oven Theo
dore Hook himself, Tom Hood was often
caught in his own net, but usually gave a gufd
pro giro. His daughter thus chronicles one:
uu another occasion two or three friends came
down for a day’s shooting, am}, as they often did.
in the evening they rowed out Into the middles!

.spirits, and had played off one or mo practical
jokes ou their host, dll ou getting out of the boat,

; out went my father Into the water. Fortunately, jit
i was the Undlog-plaoe, and the water was not deep
bat he was net through. It was playing with
edged tools to venture on sush trluks with him,
ami he Quietly determined to turn the.tabloe.
Accordingly bo presently began to complain ol
oramps and etitohes, and at last went io-doors
Ilia friends getting rather ashamed of their rough :
fuo, persuad'd blip to go to had. which he immedi
ately did His groans and coroplhjnts increased so
alatmmgly, thauhey wore aimustat their wit’s end?
what to do. My mother bad, received a quiet bln',
and wus therefore not alarmed, though roaotr
amused at tho terrified efforts and pte*orlpUons
of the repentant j >ker». There wus no doctor to be
bad for miles, and all sorts of queer remedies were
suggest<d end administered, my fhther shaking
with laughing, while they supposed bo had goi
ague or lever. One rtuhed dp w|»h a tea-kettle oi

and beseech him ro believe In their remora*. he
buret into a perfect shout of laughing, which they
thought at first wusdelirbrns fren;y, but which uhi
maVaiy betrayed tpe j-qte.

MONDAY JULY 23. 1860.
Thomas Article.)
Very imperfectly Indeed have we carried out
onr desire,'.of‘ini?re»tlpg..our readers In the
« Memorials of! homus-IIood.” (byhisson and
daughter,)' 11 Our article about the famous au
thor of “ The Song of the Shirt” did not
create a craving for farther extracts from the
book. -
What especially has awakened our attention
Is the continuous good feeling and grateful af
fection of Hood for his wife. Hero, for ex
ample, is a passage from ono of his letters tf>
her which fully shows this: “ X never wn s
anything, dearest, till I knew you—and I hav6
been a letter, happier, and more prosperous
man ever since. Lay by that truth in laven
dor, sweetest, and remind me of it when I fall.
X am Writing warmly and fondly j bat not with
out good cause. First, your own affectionate
letter, lately received—next, iho remembrances
of our dear, children, pledges—what darling
ones I—of our old familiar love—then a deli
cious impulse to pour out the ovoiflowirgs t.f,
my heart into, yours t and last, not least, the
knowledge that your dear eyes will read what
my baud is now Writing. Perhaps there Is ah
alter-thought that, whatever may beta! me, the
wifo of my bosom will have this acknowledge
ment of her tenderness, worth, excellence—-
all that is wifely or womanly, from my pen.”'
In 1841, when poor Hood was not far from
tho closo of his career, ho thus wrote to hih
wife i “ But ■ for tho ‘ world’s gear,’ how
happy could Xbe Inspito of 111 health I I half'
suspect the sickness of my heart has been
from hope defetred. But time and tho tide
woar through tho ronghest dayj so pluck np
your spirits, dear one, and let us hope still i
it Is hotter, at all events, than despairing. If
you were but as near as you are dear to me, X
think I should Sad little tilling. If It bat please
God to spare me, you, and my bairns sound
and well, I will not repine at the rest.V
The daily beauty of this poet’s life, filled with
struggles as It was, Is pleasant to oonteraplate'.
In versb, too, as well as in prose, did hp
declare how deeply he loved the true heart so
long and tenderly linked to his own, in
wedded life, Here is a lyric addressed to his
wife:
Those eyes that wars so brisht, levs,
Have nows dionier ehinfl.—
hut all tr.ey’ve lost m Heir, love,
Wj« what they sav« to mine:
BotsttU those nibs riSe’et, iove*
The beams o’ former hours, —
That ripen’d all my Joys, ruy love,
And tinted all my dowers!

Those looks were brown to see love,
'year now are tnraod so star,—
But tjie years were Spent with me, love,
That erole their hue awar.
Thv look* no looser shjtro, love,
Tho i olden plow of or on
But I’te sc* n Ih- worid look fair, my love,
When slivered by the moon!
That brow woe smooth and fair, love,
'I hat looks so, haded now,—
But for me u bore tbs oare love,
That spoiled a bonny brow.
A t d ti oii.-h no Ipuper there, love,

Where Hope ndniir.d before!
Hood’s first- book was the “ Whims and Od
dities,” which ho dedicated to tho Reviewers,
in this epigram :
*• 'Whftt Is ft irodern Poet’sCita i

Whon Hood, recently married, moved from
London to resido in a cottage in the snbuibii,
at a place which then was rural, his daughter
tells us:
of them when I packed and aaaled it up’
fur D» Franck’s man to carry over’to
BbrtntrHtafelo. Be cams to thank me, and
towtMd U blftbty,. I find that while I wftfl out of
the tootn. Hood atked him If it was not well
tro*wd, and he answered * Y«* eo smvely tbar
Heod thought he meditated some Joke in retails*
»Wn, end WOB on his guard. At the ball the truth
came out—b* actually thought it was some new
method of making piam-pnddfngs, and gave me
credit for the woodwotk. Be hud invited two of
- hi, brother rfßrers to lnneh upon it, and Rood
1 "" n " d ,. *®. persuade me that the < Oetdlnal ’
uffioer bed Swallowed one -of the skewers 1 Now,
- Whs not thie an abominable trick ?”
X German manners and customs did not win a
1 way Into Hood’s liking. In ono of his letters
iVom Coblentz be mentions this little dinner
display. <‘ At tho table d’hote, the English
are fond of copying foreign customs and man
ners. First pull oat tho crumb ol your roll,
about half of which roll up, and work between
your fingers (if snuffy the better) Into little
balls as big as marbles. They will not look
exactly like Wordsworth's ‘White Dough,’
■but rather dirty putty. » hen you have used
jour quill toothpick, stick it up, bolt upright,
in ono of these dirty balls, a little flattened
-beneath, as you may have seen candles stuck
.In extempore elay candlesticks at an illumina
ition. Should it (the toothpick) want cleaning,
.tUTblsh it up with one or the other dirty
.bread balls; (ben it will be ready lor fur
ther use ! This I should think a very, polite
i piece of manners, for I had It from a gentle
man who wears a black velvet great coat and
>a ribbon at his bntton-hole, and who evidently
i does not think small beer ot himself, or vin
- ordinaire, as I ought to say hero.” Neither
did he Std the Germans indisposed to cheat
him. , At the hotels there were three prices,
for JEnglish, French, and natives., He wrote
homo “ tho good honest Germans are as
great cheats as nnjr, though I confess they
look honest, they are so stupid like, and per
haps honesty is stupidity. 1 bad some shirts
made hero, and they not only changed the
Oloth I had bought of them, but sent mo home
some shirts so laughably short, I could only
make shift with them; this was. a respectable
shop.”
; Dilke, editor of tho London Mhenceum, (that
wet-blanket, of literature which almost always
abuses American hooks apd hates to recognize
a writer’s merit until he has become famous,)
WM a person to whom Hood ottsn wrote lrom
Germany. Once upon a timo, Dilke had his
hair cut, such an unusual Operation for him
that he took cold. Hood said « What an epi
taph must I have written, it he had diet
through that little outbreak of personal vanity i
” Bars ties Dilke, tho notim to a whim.
Who went to have hie hair oat bat the air cut him.”
Here is an impromptu quoted by Hood (most
probably his own) on the death of William
IV.:
“*T‘e death of kinrs is easily exp’ained- -
And thue It rateht open hie tomb he chiselled—
• As loos as Will the Fourth could refftt he reientd,
And then he mixzhd ”
Another on Bripce Albert’s breaking in
through the ico when skating, Her Majesty
pulling him out with her own royal hands:
** Bcnx life and hard frosts to the fortunate Prince,
And for mans a skating mar Providence spare him;
For eurely hie accident served to convince
That the Queen dearly loved, Iho’ the loe couldn’t
bear him ”
Dr. Elliot, bis physician, bad a party on
,ilay 23. 1844, Hood, dangerously ill at tho
time, wrote;
“ A pleasant party to you. To-day le my birth
day— fatty fire—but I can’t tell you how old 1
foot ; enough to be your grandfather, at least, and
give you advice! viz.: don'tover-polka yourself.”

Very Utile of a-politician, and notbing Of n
party man, Hood, bod rational ideas about tho
proper mode of governing England, Xhe es
sence ot a hundred leading articles is in tho
ruIIOWIIIg-JUtre f'-.Wi.,-. .. . _ .... ,
11 For my part, I say, hang party! There wants
a true country party to look singly to the good oi
England—rutronoh and ceonotn|;e, fpdtltP ta?oS,
rind make it possible to live aB cheap at home as
abroad. There would be patriotism, instead of o'
mete struggle of Ins and Outa for places and pelf
Common sense stems the great desideratum for go
vornon whether of kingdom or family I suspect
the principles that ought to gnldo a private family
would bear a pretty dose application to the great
publlo ooo; theip evils are much of the same na*
tare —extravaganoe, luxury, debt, Ac.”
Bis sense of the ridiculous usually made him
joke upon most things. His English engravtr,
a gentleman named Wright, had a large num
ber of male children, and at last was presented
with a gill. Hood wrote, <■ Take pare of her,
now you have got her at last, Some Infants
aro tquatted on, like tho * spoiled child.’
Mind, and whenever Mrs. Wright looks fa
tigued and sedentary, taao care to hand hor a
chair. Now and then, a child is turned up
with a bedstead, but that conld not happen if
the maids slept in hammocks. Mind how you
nurse her yourself. Never toss her up unless
you are quite certain of catohing her j a hutter
fiogered father might become wretched for life
in a moment. Don’t let her go up in your
study, among the wild young men. What do'
you thiuk of her for our Tom f Don't givo
her a precocious taste for lots o’ daffy, or a
box at the Opera.”
Then ho sensibly adds, “ I never knew a
daten brothers but one sister managed to ty
rannize ever ’em nil. Have you got adictlona
ry name yet ? If I might propose, I should
say christen hor ‘Mary Wolistonecralt,’ as
the supporter of female righto /”
4 Iriepd presented Mrs! Jlood with a band
sq me set of sables, and Hood wrote back,'
*• They are very handsome, hut no thanka to
you on my part, considering a hint that I have
had, that it is a dress only lit lor aearriage I
I don’t mean, however, to ga so fur as to set
up a wheelbarrow.” Upon Dickens, in 1839,
then in tho “ purpurea juvimtus” of bis j>Qp
ulartty, Hood’s criticism plain and *cor
w^i
“ His morale is better than bis material, though
that Is olten very good ; His wAolesome reading:
the drift is natural along loith the great human
currents, and not against thtvt His purpose
sound, with that bunuse independence of thinking
which is the constant adjunot of true-beartednesa
recognition good in low plaoes, and evil in high
ones; in short, a manly assertion of Truth as Tram
Compared with suoh merits, his defects of over*
painting, and the like, are but spots on the t>un.
“For these merits alone, he deserves all the
suaeeweß he has obtained, and long may he eij»y
them! As for Jack Sheppard, the test of its value
is furnished by the thieves and blackguards that
yell their apptanso at Its slang eougs, in the Adol*
phi Can the penny theatres, so unceremoniously
routed produce any tff ota more degrading and
demoralizing? From what l have heard ot their
pieces, they were comparatively absurdities
to suoh positive moral nuisances.”
T7o had hoped to have douo with those vo
lumes in-two notices. But they aro exhauetless
in their readability ou4 quotabllity, (two words
invented for the occasion,) and we must even
run the risk of Tioknor At Fields {poking gravo,
“more in sorrow than in anger” at tho ex
teut to which we draw upon their publication.
Wo conclude, for to-day, with this quaint frag,
ment by Hood, probably written during ill-
ness :

Dkar Colokel : Without entering into dsUvlft

and myself, after a delightful vide through our glo+
ribus old State, arrived here safely at a seasosahle

metallic treasures was evidently not in Nature's
programme in forming the earth, a ad, •< bringing
forth the mountains." At one moment wo are
winding arouod the steep side of a mountain, and
the next hurled, with the mad Impetuosity of our

Although the eclipse did not arrive, aooordlng

la aogor that I am forced into the conclusion that
there are some things more oertalh' than eclipses
and astronomers. Having left Philadelphia In
charge of Captain Johnson, of the staunch old
Kennebec, we all arrived in good condition, with
uo occasion for a quarantine anchorage. People whe
go down to the i«mk in ships, and don’t want to get
shaky, had better try the .Becky Ann, as no matter
how strong It may be, she won’t roll, and that’s
more than can be said of some people. There was
quite a number on board booked for the Great
Eastern. and one cannot dense a pleasanter way Of
going to New York than by a trip round *• o’er the

over the road In a duster, an Invention of Mr
Blanchard, of Philadelphia, in the shape of a four*

that greeted our ears after crossing tho old brl dge
