PEN PIcTUREs.-The facial expression Of one Of
the writers connected with a contemporary, 90 much
resembles that of an imbecile ourang-outang that
it is doubtful if the amount paid for him would
cover the expense of transportation. He may be
one OF the chief PLIERS Of society, and the ghosts
Of the departed may haunt him and thus cause the
illusions of which he has lately been guilty.
Spirit Jermenti would be a good adjunct To re-

of the premises. making night hideOus. and sleep
almost impossible boring through the single

passing by with apparent contempt the most cum
ningly concealed poison all on a sudden without
any apparent cause. they leave the premises entire
ly and are gone. sometimes for months and some
times for whole years together. Then as suddenly
they mysteriously appear again. and go through
their nightly performances as before. AS a gen
eral thing the breeds of cats in this country are a
degenerate race. and won catch anything. unless
it is a small chicken or a d%uckling. In the city Of
New York, where rats abound, there are men who
