WHITTINGTON AND HISCAT.

According to recent publications, the story
Of Sir Richard Wilmington. who was a very
extensive leather dealer and his cat, is not
after all SO remote from possibility as many
have imagined. Mr.. Southey, in his history
of the Brazils, relates that the first couple Of
cats which were carried To Cayuba, sold for
a pound weight of gold. There had been "A
plague among the catsin the settlement, and
the couple of cats were purchased as a specula-
ton, which turned out an eycelientone. Their
first kittens produced 80 octaves each; the next
generation sold for 20 each, and the price
gradually fell as the inhabitants were stock
cd with these beautiful and useful creatures.
In the East also according to a Persian Ms.
quoted BY Sir VIM. Gore Ouseley, there Is
an island which derived its name from a cir
cumstance of the same kind; and Mr.. Collet
asserts. without hesitation, that the story OF
Wilmington and his cat is borrowed from Il
tale of the East. 1t is scarcely necessary To
remark that there may have been IA plague oi
rats, and that cats might, therefore, have been
worth their weight in gold, more than once
since the food.
In the prints of Wilmington, he Is repre-
sented with a Grimalkin by his side; but
Granger the best historian Of pUrtraits. relate,
that it was substituted for a skull, which Orlgl
nally occupied it's place. as the people did not
choose to purchase the print, without their
favorite traditional emblem. The Persian
story is to the effect that, "keish.' the son OF
a poor widow in Siraf embarked for India,
having for his sole property IA cat
He Unfortunately arrived at his destination. when
the place was 50 infested with mice, that they
invaded the Kings food; keish produced
his cat. the noxious animals disappeared, and
magnificent rewards were bestowed ON him
by the delighted monarch. keish returned
TO Strait, and afterwards. with his mother and
brothers, settled in the Island, which has
been called after his name. Sir VIM. q. Gus
lev, in his Travels in Persia" also relates,
that tn" worthy Floreutine, Ansado DeglI
Ormanni. was indebted for his wealth aud
celebrity to his two cats, which being present
ed to the Kingofan Island. (Ganarial on which
he had been cast by a violent tempest. reliev,
ed the monarch from the plague Of mice, and
he was rewarded "c0n rich eSimidoni. It's
not a little singular. adds Sir William, thut
in countries widely separated, and in various
languages, the story of Wilmington. so long
the hero of ~favorite nursery tale. has been
related If several different persons.
