STATISTICS OF RATS.

A volunteer in the ranks of literature has
been enlisted from the rat catchers of Great
Britain, who has produced forty or fifty pages
of rat statistics, which clearly prove to our
mind that the rats are more formidable
enemy of England than the Russians, and that
there ought to be a special meeting of Par
liament for the purpose of devising ways and
means for their extermination. The writer
object is to alarm the whole nation by show
ing what it loses every year by rattage and
II his facts are not enormously exaggerated
(which we think is possible,) there ought to
be one universal shout through the fast an
ch0red isle-"A rat rat ! dead for ducat.''
He attributes all the national distress of Great
Britain to rats, who, he says, have eaten the
farmers out ofhouse and home. Rats being
OF diffident disposition, seldom show them
selves in public; they do their good deeds
in quiet and private way, but, says our
author, if they could, by any means, be made
10 live on the surface of the earth, instead Of
holes and corners, and feed and run about
the streets and fields in open day like dogs
and sheep, the whole nation would be horror
stricken, and there would not be man, wo-
man or child able to brandish stick, but
would arm at once for their destruction
The authors calculations of the prolific dis
position of rats are quite astounding. He
says the rats will have six, seven and eight
nests of young in the year, and that for three
and four years together; secondly, that they
will have from twelve to twenty three at
litter, and that the young ones will breed at
three months old thirdly, that there are
more females than males, at an average Of
about ten to six. At this calculation, he takes
one pair of rats, and estimates their increase
at the end of three years, at GAG, ,sO8. A mo-
derate family Such being the increase of
rats, the question is, what becomes of them
Their natural enemies the ferret, polecat.
weasel, cat, and man, the author considers
as far from being very formidable and des-
tructive. The well bred London terrier he
pronounces the only adversary that can eff
hciently cope with rats, an opinion which,
as some of his wonderful statistics, may be
explained by the fact that he has London ter
riers for sale!
The race of Barnums is confined to no
country. Our author, whilst he equals Bar
mum in ingenuity of contrivance to raise the
wind, surpasses him in eloquence. What is
there in the autobiography of our American
humbug which can equal the grand splurge
with which the English author remarks:
:. Are rats calamity to be deplored, or are
they not The voices of religion and patri
otism cry,twith stentorian lungs, Yes! the
rest of philanthropy cries, Down with theml
down with every barrier, and annihilate
them' the fainting stomachs of thousands
of our starving fellow creatures at home and
in the sister country, ,withthe agonized bowels
of their withered offspring writbing beneath
the ruthless fangs of hunger, shrek forth,
with horrid yells, for their determination !''

of New Orleans 10 advocating the forwarding Of
the entire fund of the Howard Association there
except that portion subscribed ia that city to Nor.
folk They say the fund was subscribed by the
whole Uoi0n to relieve their suffering 10 1853 and
the suffering now experienced In Norfolk and
Portsmouth makes 1t their properly, The Delta
says:
The duty of the Howards as highminded and
conscientious men (Which they are,) Ia clearly to
sell out their mortgages at once, and realize ia
every available shape every dollar which remains
to the Association, deducting the amount sub
scribed by the city of New Orleans itself The
remainder should be dispatched without reserve
to the sufferers OF Norfolk who were amongst the
or ignal Subscribers, TO enable them to proviie
ply siciaus, nurses and all possible aevistions of
their bitter misfortune. This 10 opinion 1.
the true aud righteous course which would be
most conducive to the good reputation of New Or.
leans, and most worthy of the stainless character
OF the Howard Association.
