Tho old woman gazed on ns for some time in silence. Wo all saw she wanted to enter into oonver- salion ; and none, with the exception of myself, wished 10 gratify her. I soon commenced a dialogue on various subiocts and things, and, as a matter of coarse, I put my best leg forward.

This is the system about which so much has been said, and so many mysteri ous circulars and advertisements have appeared in our nCfthem cities : “ Dissolve a quarter of a pound of lime in boiling water, straining twice through a flannel bag ; dis solve separately half a pound of brown soap and half a pound of soda—boil tho three together. Put six gailons of water into the boiler, and when boiling add the mixture. Tho linens, which must hare been steeped in cold water for twelve hours, are wrung cember, at Beroy, to celebrate their late rat chase ii the capital. Some guests were present, and th( cover was laid for one hundred and sixty-five persons. Mr. John Warton, of London, who had purchased 600,000 rat skins, at ten cents a piece, sent twenty- five battles ef champagne, and the two persons of Grenoble who had at first been in treaty tor the skins, sent fifty bottles of fine Macon. At the secon service two enormous pates de Chartres were place ou the table, weighing twenty-five pounds each, o the crust of which was represented a scavenger trams fixing a rat with a lance. At the dessert, M. Desire Fergeau.proposed as a toast, “ La RepubUque bon- nete et moderee ; and M. Georget Romain, “ The complete destruction of the gray rats of Norway, and the black ones of England.” The diDner continued to twelve o’clock at night, when the guests in great good humor. Mr. J. Warton ha hundred thousand francs in Bons du Tres_* skins of the rats killed for the fifteen days hoQfc. This sum was divided among the one hnndred apd forty-tour scavengers of Paris and their brigadiers, all of whom have taken out a hook at the savings bank with an inscription of five hnndred francs, ma king np the difference theniBelves. They all refused to aocept the gratuity offered by the muhLsipAUiy of Faria for the deatructlon of the rats. Air. Warton proposes to make ladiss’ gloves of the skins.—[G ^ g - nani’s Messenger.

But at the eleventh hour two uiflunpeachable Witnesses (a gardener and his wife) were found, who testified that some days after the young lady left for Ganada, they eaw a young man carrying th.e idanrioal carpst bag, and in sucb a way as to call fcbeir attention )^tiou- larlytoit. They desoribed ihe young man and his dress with great particularity, and it tufned out to be a young Canadian who had formerly paid his ad dresses to the young lady, and Was the father of the child. It appeared that she had expeotod him for sometime, but it did not appear that she i^eoted him any more on that day than on any other. He came, however, and proposed to take the ^ I d and hiio it kopt fn some good place, after which h e would reium to Canada, many her, and ‘ bo haw y yet. Some days after he did return to Canada- By whom the child was drowned is not known, but it was prpved that she could not have drowned it. And yet, bad it not been for tho two witnesses who became kngwn to the prisoner’s counsel on the very eve of the tnal,Jhe young lady wouldhave been convicted and hung.” vftAJg, lo uckiilou un.
