Prom The Builder.
Ina few years. time, unless some
active measures are taken, London
may expect great trouble from rats
Il is . startling fact that one pair
OF rats, with their progeny, will
produce in three ycars At least
six hundred thousand rats. A doe
rat will have from six to eight
nests Of young each year for four
years together, and from twelve
to twenty-three at . litter: aud
the young docs will breed at three
months old, and there are moro
females than males at an average
Of about ten to six. II they ran
about the streets like cats aud dogs
the public would be terrified; but
- they hide aud work In the dark
men seldom SEQ or think Of them.
Brick drains are their chosen
haunts; skirting boards, backs Of
hreplaces, under the flooring or
between the rafters are their spots
for breeding. Tho London sewer
men state that the brick drains
are the rats best friends, and that
nothing but glazed pipes, with
heavy sink traps, will stop the
sewer rats from getting into the
houses. They will not 30 up the
pipes for fear Of being drowned,
knowing they have no means Of
escape. They are seen in the sew
crs migrating IN communities to
some discovered quarter for food,
and the scwcrmen believe that they
have . language Of their own.

Colonel Lamar.

The eminent courtesy and abili-
~ with which Mississippi's distin-
guishcd representative IN Con.
gress has displayed IN sustaining
his broad views and national SEN
timcnts, has made him o favoritc
In all parts Of the country. The
Alta. Californian thus speaks Of
him: "In the example set In Con-
gress by Mr.. Lamar, Of Mississip-
pi, who behaves like . true gentle
man toward other members Of the
House, his fellow representatives
have an example which 1t would
do them no injury to follow. lie
is ever courteous, never low aud
vulgar; never insulting aud abu-
sivc; never announcing himself
personally responsible. as used to
bc commonin Congress, aud which
bad specimen Of bad breeding,
bad manners and bad feeling seems
again coming into vogue. .He has
made friends Of both sides Of the
House, mot by paDdering to or
flattcring the vanity Of either, but
by exhibiting . spirit of fairness
on all occasions, an independence
Of thought truly statesmanlike,
but st the same time not leaving
bis own political preferences at
al In doubt. Such mon are an
honor to tho country" 1fissis-
sippians will no doubt be gratiiied
to hear the name of their talented
representative In Congress 80 hand

Of the Pacific. But ncvor was eu-
logy more just or deserving.

made some humorous remarks and he
was followed by Hon Ara Barton who
kept the audience in roars of laughter at
his happy hits. The irreverent rascal
even indulged in some jokes at our own
expense. as if he did not know that ed
itors were made of too sacred material
to be the subject Of rude witticisms. He
was followed by the Tennessee Jubilee
Minstrels, a band of real negro singers,
male and female, who we're to give con-
cert that night in Mortified, and volun-
unteered couple Of their songs. The
audience was immensely pleased, and any
thing more quaint and comical it would
be difficult to conceive of. They sang .
camp meeting song which was hybrid
cross between an Indian "hi-yah' and
one of Watts hymns.
The most remarkable thing in both
these pic-nics, was the entire absence OF
intoxication. Not drop Of any kind Of
intoxicating liquid could have been found
in either Of those vast gatherings, while
there was abundance of coffee, tea, lemon.
ade, and spring water. The fact is il
would be difficult to find anywhere in the
world, better dressed, better looking

groves at Point Douglass and Mortified
