RATs.-A Jamaica paper, speaking of these
interesting animals, says:
" Rats are sadly destructive to the foreign
mails, particularly on board the West India
packets, where the rats are large and yora-
cious. 1t is curious that these vernin will not
touch leather bags of tan color. Rats are
extremely fond of parchment, but sealing wax
they will not touch. Some time since will
in England was required in Demarara. After
immense trouble and expense, the will was
obtained and sent out. When the mail arriy-
ed at Demarara, however, the rats had eaten
the will, and nothing but the seal was left"

On the 18th inst, about daylight, the body Of

dom travelled. The deceased came there un-
der the name of Charles Emmer, the evening
previous, on the Lexington stage, destined

lting that he was possessed of other money.
About o'clock at night, after his arrival, the
reports of two pistols or guns were heard by
persons residing near the place where the body
was found, but they attracted no particular
attention at the time. 1t appeared after he

some one, the ball entering under the right
arm, and ranging downward. passed through
the heart. A gold watch, purchased by the
deceased the evening previous, was found ten
or fifteen steps from his body; revolver, pur-
chased at the same time, in his pocket. There
was also about 5000 in cash found about his
person, partly in Missouri paper, OH the back
of which was written the name of - Os-
borne, and other papers and letters, that SEEM
ed to belong to Mann & McFeran, of Gala
tin, No. From information received by tele-
graph from Lexington, No., it is. believed that
the deceased is the individual who robbed the
store Of Messrs. Mann s. Veteran, few days
ago-that the money all belongs to said gem
tlemen, and that his real name is 6. b.
