amusing Experiments on Rats.

An amusing experiment on rats was
recently perpetrated in a mercantile
house in Petersburg, Va. Two ofthese
animals had been trapped, and it was
decided to try the effect of whiskey upon
them. Forty drops were administered
to each of them by force, and the re-
suit awaited. They were placed in a
wide, deep box, into which some gravel
had been thrown. A saucer of whiskey
was placed therein. For a while all
was silent, each rat having seated him
self in a corner, where he remained as
moi ose as rat could be. By and by,
however, the liquor began to work.
The rats began to smile, and play with
their tails; then to jump up and squeak;
then to fall down and roll over. Finally
one of them found the saucer, and, with
the peculiar curiosity attaching to the
race, dipped his nose into it. He drank,
and the noise of his drinking brought
his companion to his side They drank
as though they were really fond of the
stuff, and, it IS estimated, took more
than twice forty drops. And now they
got glorious. They kissed each other.
They wrestled and played about. They
revisited the saucer, and got mad over
it; aud rough and tumble fight en-
sued, which lasted until both were
exhausted. Then they remained for a
while, each with paw to his nose,
grinning at the other, Finally both fell
asleep, and while they we're gloriously
unconscious, terrier was dropped be-
fore them, and the curtain falls.

strange circumstance. The Alban,

Times tells story OF young lady or
that city who, few weeks since, awoke
from sleep feeling alarmed byan I'M
pleasant dream. Opening her eyes, she
saw by the dim light of her small gas
taper, the figure of a young lady friend
of hers, who resides in st. Louis, APP
preached her bed. She called the name
of lady No. 2, and the apparition APP
preaching nearer, growing fainter aud
fainter until it disappeared. The form
and features were distinct, and the ex-
preston of countenance one of kindly
greeting. She naturally aroused the
family, who ascribed it to an excited i'm
agination. But the incident has sin
gular sequel: With forebodings of I'M
pleasant news, she wrote to her friends
in st. Louis, relating the circumstance.
A letter came back announcing the
good health of her friend, and
the fact that on the same night, and the
same hour she had been similarly visit
ed with the apparition of her Albany
friend, and been equally alarmed with
apprehensions of coming evil. The
Times thinks it circumstance without
any parallel But circumstances are
not uncommon where the spirit or APP
partition of one friend makes its appear
ance to another, when the two parties
are closely knit together by ties of
friendship, as the above case. The idea
is expressed by INLAND as brought out
in Longfellow's translation. Upon
being ferr1ed over the Rhine. when he
recalls two friends who were with him
upon farmer occasion, and, reaching
the opposite shore, says to ferryman:
''Take, Oh boatman, thrice thy fee,
Take,-I give it willingly;
For invisible to thee, I'D
Spirits twain have crossed with me-"

Ths constitutional Amendment Is
the Presidents signature Necessary ?
The New York World finding nothing
else in the recent speech of Thad. Stevens,
on the Representation Amendment to the
Constitution, which it can answer, takesup
his assertion that If hat amendment re-
-ceive the necessary two-thirds vote of
both houses Of Congress the Presidents
signature is unnecessary, and opposes it
with learned and lengthy verbosity. The
point is, however, as the Chicago RePU5ti-
can demonstrates one which was settled as
long ago as 1898 by u decision of the Su-
prems Court of the United States, and
may therefore be treated as res adjudioGta.
The point was brought in issue in the case
of Hollsysworth rs. Virginia, heard at
the February term, 1898, Of the Supreme
Court Of the United States. The case in
rolved the eleventh amendment TO the
Constitution, which preseribes that the
judicial power of the United States shall not
be construed to extondto any suit in law or
equity, commenced or prosecuted against
one Of the United States by citizens Of
another State, or by citizens or subjects Of
any foreign state" The objection was
made that the Presidents signature had
never been affixed to the amendment and
that it was therefore void. The inspection
of the original manuscript confirmed the
fact as stated. But the court unanimously
decided that the amendment had been
constitutionally adopted, notwithstanding
the Joint resolution proposing thad never
been submitted to the Presidentfor his ap-
proval. The Constitution entirely ignores
the President In providing for its own
amendment. II makes g proposition to
amend It conditioned upon the support of
two-thirds Of the members Of each branch
Of Congress, and the ratification of the
legislatures of three-fourths Of the States,
but not at all upon the will Of the Presi-
dent.
