Ringing Rocks.

Pottstown, Pa, can boast of as great
a curiosity, says the Philadelphia Press,
as nearly any town in the Union. We
speak of the ringing rocks, that are stu
ated three and one-haf miles northeast
of Pottstown post office. We started
early in the morning, and after walking
through and gazing on as fine and pic
turesque scenery as can be found in this
State, we came in sight of the rocks. A
wilder looking place it is hard to imag-
inc. On the rocks are advertisements
and autographs of people from all parts
of the country. There is an eating and
refreshment stand close by for parties,
etc. On striking the rocks with our
hammer they sent forth as rich and deli
cate sounds as the finest music box. By
striking different rocks we could get
sounds of every note of IN octave, and it
is certainly the oldest freak OF nature
we have ever seen. The rocks cover
about one acre of ground, and are a
perfect mass of confusion, being piled
together as if they had been upheaved
by an eruption. They are visited every
summer by hundreds of people, and no
doubt will be visited during the centen-
NAL year by thousands.

Rats Destroying Crops.

The Bakersfield Courier Californian
says: We have heard rumors of the dep
relations of an army Of rats, and upon
inquiry We find these reports to be true.
The greatest damage done yet is on the
Souther ranch, on the border of Kern
lake. The first field of their operations
was one OF 100 acres of wheat. This was
the nearest to the lake, and gave prom
Use of yield of not less than fifty bush
els to the acre. This was totally de-
stroyed almost before the proprietor was
aware that anything was the matter.
They then advanced and began on an
other field of 400 acres but Mr.. South
or determined to dispute this with the
rats, and Immediately threw his mowers
into this field and proceeded to cut the
wheat for hay. He will probably by this
means save half of his crop for hay. He
estimates his loss at not less than ten
thousand sacks of wheat. Several 9th.
ers in the vicinity of the lakes have suf-
fered more or less from the same cause,
only not so much from the fact that they
had less to lose. The rats are what are
called tule rats, that live in the tule
along the margin of the lakes, feeding
on the roots of that plant. The spring
rise in the river has filed the lakes and
caused them to extend their margins a
great distance, driving the rats back I'M
til they fonnd the wheat fields, which
was new article of diet they appeared
to relish better than the tule roots.
Their plan of operation is to cut the
stalk near the ground, and when it falls
to eat the head. The grain is now in its
milky state, and no doubt a very dainty
diet for the rats. Their numbers are be-
You'd computation.

The Ruling Passion.

The ruling passion of bull-making
strong in death, or its near neighbor-
hood, was strongly illustrated in a story
MCGEE was fond of telling-that of two
Irishmen who were strolling along the
docks of Liverpool, penniless and with.
out any prospect of securing money OF
employment. Presently they came to a
placard:

didn't know how to swim, and so in
stead of springing in and rescuing the
drowning man he stood leaning over the
rail staring at the bubbles which marked
where Mike had sunk. Once Mike ca.Ae

What Tobacco Did,

Tobacco is generally classed as sed-
alive rather than stimulsnt, yet its
reactions" Ito use chemical term)
are sometimes as violent as those of al
cohol. Recently at Hobart Town, in Tas-
mania, jury which had failed to agree
on criminal case was locked up to en-
force a verdict. The result showed the
danger of keeping twelve persons of diff
ferent views in the same room for an in
definite length of time. Weary with
fruitless discussion, some of the jurors
commenced smoking; others, equally
weary, but hostile to such solace, pro-
tested vehemently against it. Discus
sion swelled into rage, and words were
followed by blows. There was fright
full row the furniture was broken, the
windows smashed to atoms, chairs-but
fortunately without their occupants
hurled into the street, and the inhabi-
tants of Hobart Town alarmed and scan
dalized. After all this, the jury agreed
even less than before, and the Judge, in
despair, finally discharged them.

Egypt and AbYssinia,

The recent accounts of alleged defeats
of the Egyptians by the Abyssinians are
contradicted. The war terminated on
the ninth of March last, and no fighting
has occurred since. King John, of Abys.
synia, sent letter on the eleventh oil
March to the khedive, desiring to nego.
tiate, and about the ninth of juno the
khedive sent Colonel Ali Bey, fully EN-.
powered to treat, to Adowa, where King
John has been staying. The greater
portion of the Abyssinian army is now
disbanded, the remainder being ordered
to the province OF Mogbly, where a re.
volt is in progress. The Egyptian army
is returning home, only a few battalions
remaining on the frontier.

A STOCK CoMPANY.-By the rules Of
the United States House, says Wash
ington correspondents, the doorkeeper is
allowed $75 per month for carriage hire.
Fitzhugh conceived the idea of purchas-
ing pair of horses and a carriage and
hiring it out to himself at government
expense. Not having the wherewithal,
however, he organized stock company
of one hundred shares, at five dollars
each, which were taken by his subordi-
mates, and purchased an outfit. This
was early in the session. The stock COM
pany was a success, so far as Fitzhugh
was concerned, but no divide. DIS were
ever declared.

Marrying by Proxy.

When our principal tar, Admiral Por-
ter, was presented to the emperor of
Brazil, he said to his majesty 81 had
the honor Of attending your wedding
before you did," The emperor enjoys a
joke, and was we'll pleased with this one,
which, paradoxical as it sounds, was
literally true. Donna Teresa. the en-
press, is Neapolitan princess, and was
married to Dom Pedro by proxy in Ma
pies. Admiral Porter, then young
officer, was with the United States fleet
in the bay of Naples at the time, and
was present at the marriage. He was
also on one of our vessels which formed
part of the escort OF the bride out of
the harbor. This vessel was on its way
to Rio, and reached the Brazilian cap
ital in time for Admiral Porter to wit
ness the actual marriage of Dom Pedro
and his bride.
