At the recent banquet gwen by His
Excellency, the Governor General Of
Canada. to the Chief Justice and the
Judges OF the Supreme Court of Canada,
His Excellency in his address paid the
following high compliment to the SUI
Ipreme Court OF the United States:
! A great court becomes the author OF
its own supremacy; nay, 1t can extend
it's ascendancy beyond the limits OF its
natural jurisdiction, aud impress foreign
codes OF Jurisprudence with its own in
terpretations OF equity and Justice.
Witness the respect and Difference with
which the chief court of the United
States is quoted by British and Euro
pean jurisls. Such q court is the parent
OF peace, order and good government.
Itis the guardian Of civil, political and
religious liberty. 1t is like the sun al
MONDAY. 1t shines with Its own light,
and, happily, human passion and prejut
dice and executive tyranny and popular
frenzy are as impotent to intercept the
benencent influence OF the one as TO
shear the beams from the other.

Rats--How they may be Utilized

Rats are not generally supposed to be
of any particular use IN the economy OF
nature,- unless it be to. eat up refuse,
make noise, or haunt the subterra-
mean cavities OF large cities. Al tele-
graph inspector in England has, how
ever, upon q recent occasion. prove II
that the rat as an operator in case OF
broken wires may be turned to good ac-
count. 1t was necessary, says the Pop
ular Science Monthly, to overhaul q
cable of wires incl0sed In iron tubes. A
certain length of the cable had to be
taken out OF The tube, and the men CON-
menced hauling at one end, without
having taken the precauLion tvlaLLach to
the other wire by which, it might be
drawn back after inspeetiont and re-
pairs. The question arose how the cable
Was to be restored to its proper place.
The inspector invoked the aid OF u raj
catcher and, provided with! azlarge rat,
a ferret, anu a ball of string wound on
the Morse paper drum, he repaired TO
the opening ia the tube. Ine ''hush-
boxes" were opened, and the rat, with
one end OF the string attached to, his
body, was put into the pipe. He
scamperett away at raolng pace, drag.
ging the twine with HIM uAtll he reached
the middle of the pipe, and there
stopped. The ferret was then put in, and
off went the rat again, until he sprang
clear out OF the fiush-box. One length ol
the cable was thus sale, anu the same
operation was commenced with The
other; but the rat stopped short a few
yards from tne pipe aud boldly awaited
the approach Of the ferret. A sharu
combat ensued, but after sundry jerks
at the strings the comDatants septratea
the rat making for the other extremity Of
the pipe, carrying the string through
and relieving the inspector from his
anxlety.-[ lnter-Ocean.
