to all usage, he has violated the laws of hospi
tality, wantonly and most indecently insulted

and stability of the Union, by fomenting civil
dissension, and invoking the worst passions Of
factious discord and party hatred
And your memorialists shall ever pray.
The National Lntelligencer of this morning in
troduces this whole subject as follows:
FALSE FIRE IN New YoRK-We transfer to
our columns the clearest account that we have
seen of the most extraordinary and hardly con-
ceiyable excitement and conduct of a part of the
naturalized population of New York, who ap-
pear to have taken offence, without any ra-
tional cause, at a portion Of the late speech of
the British Minister at the St. Georges festi-
val @- .a s"
"Mr. Doheny and his associates seem to think
that the Celtic race inhabited Ireland alone.
But they ought to know that the Celts spread
over parts Of all western Europe, and were as
free from the reproach of breeches as our North
American Indians. Indeed, the Celts of Scot
land have only quite recently, we believe,
adopted the use of that integument for the
neither man, even if they have all yet done So
being in this respect behind their Irish brethren
But, to take offence at the charge that the
Celts, whether in Ireland, Scotland, France, or
Spain, were anciently free from the incumbrance
of breeches is about as reasonable as it would
be to maintain that they all wore beaver hats"
During the reading of Sir Henry Bulwers
letter, it is stated, three hearty groans were
given for him, and voice from the crowd sang
out, 'D-n the bloody Englishman he wants
to get off, through his wife being an Irishman."

RAT STATIsTIcs.-Our readers have perhaps
little idea of the vast quantities of rats brought
into Ipswich during the past year, for the pur-
pose Of "sport." In twenty-one weeks, celc-
brated rat-catcher, named Joseph Pooey, of
Winesham, brought to one public house in the
town no less than 1 AGA rats, which he sold at
2s. Cd. per dozen. This man took away from
the town in this short period the sum of G254
0s Id. lie declares that another year of this
sort would have made his fortune, and expresses
his conviction that, when the authorities stopped
" rat-pitting," they struck severe blow at the
prosperity Of Ipswich. Pooley is certainly clever
at his gentle craft; besides being an excellent
catcher, he is celebrated as being trainer Of
rats that is to say, he will make them go through
sundry maneuvres, such as picking up cards,
drinking out Of glasses, &c. lie has in his pos
session ten rats, each of which weighs four
pounds .-IpS,cieh (Eag.) Express.

A WoNDERFUL Cow.-There is COW which
has stood, for many years, in the same spot in
the suburbs OF our city, with wooden teat and
iron tail This COW has never been known to
move from her place or change her position.
She gives an astonishing quantity of milk, and
draws her nourishment from the ground. She
has never had calf, neither has she failed to
give her usual quantity of milk. She is not
MIXED as other cows are by pulling the teat,
but by pulling the tail. For further descrip-
ton ask some of our milkmen.-Neuarh Mer
curry.
There is another singular species of COWS, in
most towns and cities, different materially from
the one described by our Newark friend. They
have glass g teats" and :" tales of woe. They
also give an astonishing quantity of "milk,"
and draw their nourishment from those who
"milk them" They have many calves which
they never wean and some of them are always
sucking. 1t often happens when the suckers
are reduced, and most in need of milk" the
dam refuses her supply, and turns upon them
the " hoilow-hOrn," to which the oldest calves
have great aversion. They are not MIXED in
the usual way, but the "calf' lodges behind
n rack or screen, and : sucks the glass ''teat"
first standing, then sitting, and finally lying.
Naturalists have observed that the younger
calves, after a good "suck," are playful and
active, but rs they grow olduI thsy rvUo...e, az
fected with that disease among cattle" called
the trembles. 1t has also been remarked that
the oftener those cows are sucked, the more
thirsty and impoverished becomes the " cali.
After sucking for years they are often too weak
to stand, and generally terminate their sea
reer" by "going to grass. ."-Exchange.
