How RATS STEAL EGGs.-TwO gen.
tle.neu of this city, who had oecaslo to
put up at late hour, a few nights SINCE
witnessed the ingenious manner IN which
rats carry eggs without breaking thcm.-
Eggs had been frequently missed and the
rats Lad been credited with the larceny,
but no sign that an egg had been broken
was ever left about the premises. and the
parties had often wandered by what means
the rats conveyed their hnoty to their holes;
1t was done thus: one ol the rats claspeu
AN egg tightly between his fore legs and
chin, and then turned himself on his back.
when another rat seized him Ay the tall
and dragged rat. egg and all away to hl.
hole. This proceeding was repeated t'll
eggs enough for a hearty meal were stolen.

SHOCKING A 'SpINsTER.' boardors
in fashionable house were assembled IN
the public parlor one evening. when ruth
er antiquatcd maiden lady, who never
seemed to have any employment but to adj

remark that she loved a rainy day. and al
ways availed herself of it to arrange her
drawers so do L. growled out an old
sea captain. Il overhaul my drawers. and
shirts too. sometimes. and sew on a Int

moselIe did not faint but there was an
augry rustic OF silks, as she swept out OF the
room. leaving all to exchange suppressed

ELLSWORTH MAINE, FRIDAY, MAY 81, 1867
HAYwARps CAL. Apr. 2Oth. 1867.

EDITOR AMERfCAN-DEAR SIR Il con-
tinue as usual to receive the American.
can assure you it is welcome visitor, by
perusiug its colums it gives me an idea OF
the prosperity of the flourishing town Of
Ellsworth am pleased to learn through
your paper that the G ood Templars are do
ing SO much good for suffering humanity,
there is great work which should be done.
let every well disposed person both male
and female rally round the temperance flag
and use their influence for a cause so good
and noble. Who has not suffered more or
less by the biighting influence of intcmper-
ancc. The merchant, the mechanic the
printer, can all testify to these facts. while
if all that sleep in their graves and in the
deep waters beneath and the sufferers that
still live could but tell the sad tale CT mis-
cry that they have passed through by the
means Of strong drink would not the rum
seller of the prcsen. day cry for the noun
tain to fall upon them to hide them from an
all-wise and just God.
Strong drink too often destroys both
mind and body, it can and often bows down
to earth the most giant intellect, it demor-
Allies and brutaliZes the immortal soul.
1t makes a man fo:get his duty to his fam
ly. his duty to his country, and his duty to
his God. Unaffected by intcnperance he
would peril his life for that wife ofhis love
he would dive into the oceans depths, face
the cannons mouth. or peril his life amid
the flames the burning dwelling to snatch
from death his loved ones.
The Rescue Il temperance paper publish
cd in Sacramento says Maine is abreast OF
other Grand Lod ses in energy and gains.
say well done for my native state.
We have flou rishing Lodge of Good
Templars with about l20 members. which
has been organized little more than one
year. Within the last few months two
mectnghe uses have been commenced in this
place and in all probability will soon be
ready for dedication. one methodist and
the other congregationalist.
Our rainy season is nearly over. can as
sure you we have had IA great quantity Oft
probably more than in 1852, the season is
rather backward, but vegetation is flour
| ishinc and the hills and valleys are delight
lul to gaze upon. Wheat and Flour are
quite low and we are exporting large quan-
titles to other countries. Your old sub
scribcr formerly of Buchsport Me. Mr..
Daniel I.awrance died Il few months ago.
but his widow seeing that it was not we'll
to be alone married Il man by the name OF

ACTIVE MANURE.-Onc of tie most nc.
tive manurcs. and readily within the reach
ot most farmers, is n mixture OF leached
ashes, plaster and light soil mixed with
fine soil. Let them be thoroughly worked
over ON smooth spot. and allowed to
stand a week before using. working it over
every other day, and YOU have II most VAL

poor, as he in fact. deserved to be, accord
ing to his idea of the matter.
One day, about a year after his timely
caution to his son in regard to Miss Leon.
ard. Baker happened to pass along stree,
where he had not been for some months.
just opposite large, new and beautiful
house. to which the painters were giving
their last touches, he met q friend. AS
they pass, d, Baker said
That's an elegant house. It has been
built since was in this neghborhood.
Yes, it is n very fine house, and | sup
pose didn't cost less than fifteen thousand
dollars
mo should think not. Who built it I
Do you know
Yes, it was built by Leonard.
by whom?' Baker looked surprised.
by old Leonard. You know him.
Impossible !! He's not able to build a
house like that.
'Oh, yes he is, and a half dozen more,
if necessary.
Leonard
Certainly. Why he's worth at least
seventy thousand dollars.
You must be in error.
NO. His daug liter is to be married
next month to an excellent young man, and
this house has been built and is to he hand
somely furnished as marriage present.
Incredible thought he waA going or
had gone to the dogs long ago.
Leonard The friend could not help
laughing aloud. He go to the dogs. Oh,
no. There isn't man in his trade that
does SO good business, as little show as
he makes. Good work. good prices, and
punctuaity, are the cardinal virtues OF
his establishment, and make all sabstan
tial. How in the world could you take up
such notion
Il don't know, but such has been my
impression for a long time replied Baker
who felt exceedingly cut down OH account
of the mistake he had made, particularly
so in view of the elegant house and seven
ty thousand dollars which might all have
belonged to his son in time if he had not
fallen into such an egregious error about
old Leonard.
So the world moves on. People are
prone to think that what they smile on
lives aud what they frown on is blightcd
and must die.
