JRALOUSY AM Rats.—A friend of ours ‘ad 2 pet rat which he was in the habit of calling from his hole and feeding. The smooth tailed gentleman would emerge trom his retreat at the call of his benefactor. and with the ut- 4uost coolness and satisfaction, eat from his hand whatever of food was offered, and when satisfied would retreat to his hole. This mode ef proceeding was carried out for some time, until at last, for two or three day , the little pet omitted to answer the accustomed call. and it was thought that he had perhaps paid that natural debt to which rats as well as men are subject. Some days after, however, the gentieman chanced to repeat his call, when very unexpectedly his raiship again came forth. but with a very different a pearance than he bad formely presented. Both his eyes were torn from their sock and ene of ‘his among ihe ing. It is supposed Jess indulged compapions had grown of bh ac out of revengeful nh upon him in a body du geance by inflicting th Juries on his person. “As a reward for =, however, the comfort of his declining is nade the object of the tenderest so dv on the part of his male befriender.
