When rats hare NO other food they will de-
stroy each other. M. Malendie PLACED dozen
rats In a box ia order 10 try some experiments
when no reached home and opened the box
there were but thyee remaining These had
deyoured the rest and had left only the bones
aud tails.
The little animals are indefatigable in the
pursuit of food, and hardly any amount of pre-
caution can keep them from place where
they know there is supply to be had. The
| proprietoFs of The bonded warehouses know
this 10 their cost. They intest the London
Geological Gardens. 10 imnense numbers, aud
have even eaten their way through the copper

tors OF the gardens have been compelled, in

craving, but 4 necessity. HIS teeth ara So
formed as to!tontindally grow toward each
other so that nothing bnt the constant wear
ing away by friction could prevent his incisors
from passing completely thro6gh his lips. A
good sized sewer rat can Hfict very ssvere
bites, even in some instances enabling him to
yanquish terrier dog or even ferret. t-s
There have instanc. in which rats have be-
come thoroughly domesncated, like a cat o.:
dog, and whsn this is the case they render
good service by driving from fhe premises all
others of their tribe. One mode OF ri]diDg a
house of them is TO catch a single specimen
and fasten small bell around Ills neck, the
stinkling of which, as he approaches the haunts
of his comrades, will frighten them away
An.eSpert7 rat catcher, however, familiar with
the haLiss Of his prey, will soon. clear u house
of lis obnoxious yisitants.
In China where the excess of population
has driven The inhabitants to 'econamise every
species of fool, rails are eaten and esteemed
great luxury and cases are recordedia which
ships crews. when short of provisions, have
avenged themselves on the rats for lessening
hesupplies, by cooking and eating them in
the form of baked pies, which it Is said nave
been deemed quite dainty by the prrta!5eTs.
One Of the most common modes of fidding
premises of these unwecome inmates is that Of
administering arsenic 10 them. This, howev.
er, is attended by very great danger, for rats
which have lPartaken of arsenic make at once
for tie nearest water, and If there be cisiern
in the house, they are apt to ison it. Our
readers are aware that cease Of this kind has
recently occurred at Washington, in which
the lives of President Buchanan and several of
the m,st prominent politicians of the day
were placed in imminent hazard by partaking
of water from a eistern, the contents of which
had been imprrgnated
