Rats. The lAe of France was once abandoned on account of the immense swarms of rats, and they are now, it n said, a severe scourge to it. They have been known lo consume a hundred weight of biscuit daily on board a m m of war; and when a ship has been smoked to destroy them,si:f hampers aday have forsome time been tilled with carcases. They frequently, where there is want of provisions for their support, take measure to lessen their numbers. They lay open their skullstirst eat up the brains, and alterwards the body . A smooth bullet, wrapt tightly up in a silk handkerchief, may be melted over i candle, without burning the handkerchief.
