A clever seii.

Mr. De St. Vincent, the president Of one Of
the learned societies Of France, visited Africa
with view to the prosecution of researches in
natural history. He was very active in inquir-
ing after curious specimens, and paid largely
for all that were brought to him. One day a
subaltern officer presented to him two rare
phenomenal in the shape of a couple of rats,
each Of which had long excrescence issuing
from the top of the nose, and resembling the
trunk Of an elephant Our naturalist eagerly
made himself master of the valuable prizes, as
signed to them their appropriate scientific clas.
sGcation, under the name of rat trombe, and
transmitted intelligence of the important dis
covery to the Jardin des Plantes in Paris. But
10! after the lapse Of n few days, the excres-
cenee became dry and dropped off; and on ex-
animation, It was mere imposition Incl
sions had been made above the noses Of the
animals, and the tails of the other rats inserted
into them. The mystiGcation was complete.

WILD LAND OF MAISE.-This State now owns
about 100000 acres Of land, all sorts, l,200,.
600 acres Of which we're purchased of Massa-
chusetts, for which the State is indebted at
about 81 cents an acre, part Of which is in
numbered with perpetual and limited leases
granted by Massachusetts. The average price
per acre Of all land conveyed by Maine since
the separation" is about go cents. embracing
the larger parts that are valuable as timber
lands. Ia is reasonable to conclude, therefore,
that sound policy would dictate that when sales
cannot be made at the prices usually obtained
for lands Of similar value, the lands should be
kept under the fostering care OF the State.
