TESTIMONIAL TO BLACKBURN.
His Colleagues in the Senate VIII
Make Him "A Little Present.
From the Atlanta. Journal.


Washington, March 10. AT a casual
cloak room caucus this afternoon attend
ed by Senator Walthall, Daniels, Bacon,
Hill and Populist Allen, 1t was voted
beautiful proposition to celebrate the re-
turn of Joe Blackburn by bestowing upon
him a testimonial in appreciation Of the
heroic struggle he has made to hold down
his job in the north end of the capitol.
Each senator present agreed to contrib
ute $40 to the fund and to constitute him
self touching" committee to swell the
pot. From the fact that by the time SEN
ator Irby was reached the call was down
to a dollar, it is assumed that the $40 sug-
gestion failed to meet popular favor. Irby
cheerfully gave up the dollar.
In view of the shrinkage Of the size of
the touch" the original contributors to
the fund were at aast accounts talking of
pairing down their ante. What form the
testimonials Will take will depend entirely
upon the amount Of money collected, but
the inclination is to make II a gold-mount-
ed revolver rampant, or a self-adjustable
back-acting Bowie knife-an instrument
brought prominently into the recent fore
ground of Kentucky affairs by Col. Chinn
and others Of Blackburn's personal guard
of honor.

RAT ENGINEERING.
An Instance Wherein "A Small Army
of Them Carried Their Point.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.


From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
A curious case of rat engineering &C.
CURED some years ago in Brussels, show
ing great ingenuity and calculation on the
part Of the rodents as well as their system
of discipline.
A new meat market had been built on
the Place street gerry, and, though 1t was
surrounded by water the butchers who
did not appreciate rats, laid their plans
to exclude the whole tribe and nation, and
in case any should reach their stands they
| resolved to head off their march by maxi
ing the posts in their stalls unscalable
by rats. This they effected by covering
the posts with zinc, and the butchers,
looking at the shining surface Of metal,
chuckled at their victory.
But they reckoned without their host.
The rats got the meat. watchman posted
in the market called a butcher, who came
early on the scene, TO witness the method;
On a stall hung two quarters of beef and
a leg of mutton. The rats bpied them, and
found them unapproachable. A general
call for the nation at large was evidently
sounded, as the rats came fiocking in, and
an old rat seemed to take command.
There were enough projections and inc
qualities to enable him to reach the table
OF the stand; but how to scale the zinc
covered joists was the task for the en-
gineer corps to decide. Their plan was
soon formed. The rat army moved up in
solid mass, the stout fellow in front. on
these climbed smaller and smaller speci-
mems, till little rat mountain rose.
Then some of the rats, who evidently be-
Ionged to some rat circus or athletic so
ciety, climbed to the summit, and one
raised himself on his hind legs, resting his
fore legs against the zinc; then another
climbed up his back, and, taking post on
his shoulder, assumed the same attitude;
rat after rat assembled the Jacobs ladder,
till at last one reached the cross-beam and
scampered along 1t. A whole regiment
followed, and the meat was attacked, the
engineers evidently aiming to drop down
what they could for the benefit of the
army.
The lookers-on, however, were not dis
posed to let them go too far, and with all
their engineering skin the rat army had
to leave the field. The whole operation
showed a remarkable degree of calcula-
ton, a system of discipline, and a ready
carrying out of plans, which seems inn
possible without language as a means OF
impartfng the directions and wishes of
the commander.

RAIL AND oRossTIE.


Another turn in the affairs of the gem
eral creditors Of, the, old Savannah, Amer
icus and Montgomery, railroad was taken
this week, the Americus Recorder says,
by counsel preparing q general bill of ex-
captions upon which their case will be car
ried to the supreme court. When this
important case was taken up before Judge
Fish recently counsel for the bondhold-
ers demurred to the petition of the gen.
eral creditors, who claimed priority and
asked that their accounts be settled. Judge
Fish sustained the demurrer, which vir-
tually Cancelled the claims of the general
creditors as the funds on hand were not
sufficient to satisfy their accounts and the
claims of the bondholders. The
case will be appealed to the supreme
court. The claims of the general creditors,
many of whom are merchants and labor
ing men of Americas, runs into the hun
dred thousands of dollars.
