T ub K at.— N o othor animal in placed in
circumstances which te»d so continually
to sharjien its wits as the rat; nor doe« any
other appear to bo of a more improvable
naturo. He in of a most intelligent family,
being related to the beaver. And in civ
ilized cèontries he In not a wild creature;
lor he follow* the progress of civilization,
an<J »dftptB M r own habits of lifo to it, bo
an* to avail himsolf of its benefits. Th*
"pampered goose," who, in Pope's Essay,
retorts upon man, and says that man was
made for the use of geese, must have been
forgetful of pllicking tirno, as well as ig
norant of the rites that are celebrated in all
old-fashioned families on St. Michael's
day. But the rat might, with more ap
parent reason, support such an assertion,
iio is not mistaken in thinking that corn
stacks are is mfich for hîs use lis for tho
farmer's; that burns and granaries are his
wjnter magazines; that the millor is his
acting partner, the cheese-monger his
purveyor, and tho store keeper his stow
ard. flu places himself in relation to man,
not as Fis dopenfleht, like the dog, nor
like tho cat as ins ally, nor like the sheep
as bis pronorty, nor like the ox as his serv
ant, nor like the horse aud ass, his slave,
nor like tho poultry who are to "come and
be killed" when Mrs. Bond invites them;
but as his enemy— a bold borderer, a
Johnny Armstrong or Rob Hoy, who ac
knowledges no right of property in others,
who lives by spoil.
Wheresoever man goes rat follows, or ac
companies him. Town or country are
equally agreeable to him. lie enters your
house as a tenant at will, (his own, not
yours), works out for himself a coverod
way in yonr walls, ascends by it from one
story to another, and leaving yon the
larger apartment, takes possession of the
space between floor and coiling, as an en
tresol for himself. There ho has his par
ties and revels, gallopades, (merry ones
they arc) whon you would be asleçp, if it
were not for tho spirit with wmch the
youth and belles of ratland keep up the
ball over yonr head. And you are more
fortunate than most of your neighbors, if
ho docs not prepare for himself a mauso
leum bebind your chimney-piece or under
your liearthstono; retire into it when he is
about to die, and very soon afford you full
proof that though he may have livod like
a hermit, his relics are not in tho odor of
sanctity. You bave au additional comfort
of knowing that the spot so appropriated,
will henceforth be used either as a com
mon cemetery, or a family vault. In
this respect ub in many others, nearer
approaches are made to us by inferior
creatures than are dreampt of in our
philosophy.
The adventurous merchant ships a cargo
for some distant port; rat goes with it.
Great Britain plants a colony in Botany
nay, Van Dieman's Land, or at the Swan
River; rat takes the opportunity of colo
nizing alio. Ships are sent upon a voyage
of discovery; rat embarks an a volunteer.
He doubled the stormy cape with Diaz, ar
rived at Malabar in tho first European ves
sel with Gama, discovered the Now World
with Columbus, and took possession of it
at the same time, and circumnavigated the
globe with Magellan and with Drake, and
withCook.— >Smithey.
A "HnonDt*' M illionaire at N ew
Y ork .—One day, when Tommy was "do
ing" Now Vork, he strode into Tiffany'»
magnificent jewelry establishment on
Broadway, and startled the assembled
salesmen with a loud voice—"Show me a
diamond!" "Here is one, sir," responded
an elegantly modulated voice from the
"diamond department. "Eighty dollars,
sir." "Pooh I not »och a sjieck us that!
Something bigger!" "Allow me to show
you this; very pure stone, sir, one hundred
and sixty dollars." "Nonsenso—bigger!"
Herewith the gentlemanly salesman (who
I have always suspected to be a noble lord
in difficulties) produced the brilliant of
about the size of a small pea. "Exquisite
stene, sir—first water—eight hundred."
"Look here!" criedTomrrty,becoming ex
asperated, "if you'vo go}, it regular dia
moud, feudi it out, if you haven't, just say
so." My lord, half amused, half vexed,
hore, by wity of totally annihilating -Iii»
rongh customer, brought out the Koh-i
jnoor of the place. "Will this suit you,
sir I—moderately fine stone; price fifteen
thousand dollars!" "Now you are coming
toit!" cried Tommy, decidedly mollified.
"Is this the tip-top biggest?" "'It is, sir,"
replied his lordship, coolly stroking hi»
board at tho same time, as if to say, "Now,
my rustic friend, I have wastad quite
enough time upon you— yon may go."
"You ain't»got nothing bigger, now?"
^'Nothing, I assure yon." "Then 111' take
it !" My lord, 1 grieve to say, lost his
presence of mind and started; but Thoinns
at once produced a hugo roll of "green
backs"—counted out the money, and the
sale was concluded. This, as 1 have been
told, occurred more than a year airo. Now,
my lord, having become somewhat fa
miliar with the ways arid means of shoddy,
would scarcely lift his eyelids were his
coal-heaver to propose to buy out the en
tiro concern.— CornMU Magazine.

Escape fr<rm heath,.—A correspondent of
the Concord (N. H.) Htnimnan writes :
"Professor Buggies, of Dartmouth Col'
logo, had a very narrow escape at Niagara
Kalis on Friday ovening. While walking
on Goat Island with a party of ladies, one
of them dropped her parasol, which slid
some fifteen or twenty feet down the bank
of the river. Mr. Buggies went down and
picked it up, but on attempting to return,
t he bank being steep, and tho ground hard,
lost his footing and fell down to the brink
of the precipice, which, at this point, is
eighty or ninety feet high. Here he caught
hold of the roots of the up-turned tree, the
trunk of which hangs over the abyss. The
shock caused tho tree to shake violently,
and It appoarod 011 the point of falling
over the precipice. The ladies shrieked
and called for holp, but no assistance was
at hand. A movomenton tho part of Mr.
Ruggles, or a gust of wind seemed suffi
cient to cause the tree to fall. At this
critical moment one of the ladies took off
h(.r basqninc and skirt, cut them in strips,
got shawls and other articles of clothing
trom tho rest of the party tied them to
gether, fastened a stone to the rope thus
formed, and let it down to Mr. Buggies,
who, taking hold of it, walked slowly up
the bank. The rope was held firmly by
tho ladies above, but it might untie or
break, and the fall of a hundred feet on
the rocks below must be the inevitable re
sult. When Mr. Buggies reached terra
tirma, his fair rescuer, who had shown such
remarkable presçnoe,of mind, fajnted, and
was taken homo man unconscious state."
