He Objects to the Noise and Bustle of Politics. {From the Pall Mall Gazette. } M. Emile Zola, author of **L’ Assommoir,’’ naturalist, writer and Republican, has just published certain impressions on the present form of government and its possivle duration. Ile complains bitterly of the literary jntoler- ance exhibited by his country. Referring to Buckle, on the intolerance of the Scotch in matters of religion and their political liberal- ism, M. Emile Zola declares that the French Liberals are 80 _ intolerant with regard to literature as al- most to make him regret the old regime. In 1830 the Liberals would have nothing to do with the romantic school and to-day they evince a similar aversioa for naturalism, Which is another step in advance. As a Re- publican who has never dabbled in politics and who is neither in quest of place nor of decorations, M. Emile Zola considers he oc- cupies a capital position for meee es ing the Liberal party. He first sketches the doctrin- aire Republicans. with their solemn puritan- ical manners—a hard-headed and narrow-minded lot, who, underneath their correct and prudish phraseology, hide the most amiable skepti- cism. Next come the romantic Republicans of the Victor Hugo school, who ‘‘are less dangerous, but more funny, and who unfor- tunataly play a great part in the noise of the day, who introduce into the discussion of public affairs the tra-la-la of nollow phrases, who juggle with antitheses, and who give loose reiu to their hare-brained imagination. **You may well imagine,“ adds the writer, what has become of politics, that science of facts and men, under the romantic formula. Every serious basis of observation has dis- appeared, rhetoric has replaced analysis, and words bave devoured ideas. The geutle- men of the romantic school indulge in hu- manitarian drveams—the universal fraternity of nations, the approachingend.of conflicts and wars, and liberty and equality shining and il- . luminating the world. On the other hind, as they coin money out of the people, they are on their knees before them soothing them with all kinds of flattery; the people have become Emperor, P and Deity, inclosed in a triple tubernacle.

They had passed a Ife. exercising his Constitutional pow- er. had veteed the law. Fach act was within the eonstitutional limit of authority, and that was where the matter stood. There Was the issue.

WEATHERFORD, TEXAS, April 24, 1879.— Weatherford is a pleasant and lively little place of about 3,000 inhabitants, and is the county seat of Parker county—a coynty noted for its thrift and agricultural wealth through- out Northern Texas. The town of Weather- as first laid out in 1856, and takes its name from Jefferson Weatherford, who came to this State from Illinois. Being situated in almost the exact center of the county, it naturally draws trade from all directions. The growth of the town has been of that solid type that holds good in spite of All drawbacks, and now, when the Texas and Pacitic Railroad is about to make this its ter- mimi for the present, the future of the place seems to be foreshadowed as very bright. The citizens are live and energetic, fully awake to the future welfare of the town, and it would be hard to find a people anywhere at kave given more liberally to railroad en- Teiprises then the ood people of Vsrker county, The place is, at wesent, very lively, and business is brisk. real estate men are busy buying und selling town property, and eonsequently lots ave bringing almost fabuious prices. w: uu lot chat three months has Lace ew Pouwht ?-~ ——— acto couid have © „ aw selling for 0, and some en much higher. There is an elegant ceourt-house that occupies the public square, Which is now under course of completion. Seven large churches go to make the relig- ious interests of the place, while several pri- vate schools under mostexcellent managg@ucnut afford facilities forthe attainment of kaow- jedge. HENRY WARREN isthe monied manef the city and has the main*ank of the county. Mr. W. has for sixteen years been a resident of this State, and nine years identified as a ejtizen of Weather- ford.

W. ABNEY, * which ix situated nine miles west of Denton. There are in this property 1,200 acres, over 400 of which is in a high state of cultivation. Qn this farm stand six tenement houses, and one at once sees that he has dropped in on a scene of comfort and prosperity. Mr. Ab- | ney has devoted several years to the improve- | ment of this large property. and has mace it u great stock ground. Itis once of the most | complete farms. for the raising of stock to be found in the state, and its fine water-course and rich yrazing make it all that isto be desired. Mr. A. offers his place for sale, and to one who wants to enter the field as a stock grower his farm offers special facilitics.

Thomas Fullerton's Discourse on Rats and How They are Captured. [From the New York Sun.! have been a professional rat catcher over „ix years in this city, and I used to follow the same business in London. I caught 246 rats in an up-town slaughter-house in one night, and I once eaptured 108 rats in 10 hours and. 15 minutes. “ The speaker was Thomas Fullerton, of 61 Charlton street. He complained that Mr. Bergh had seized his tongs, which he used for catching rats, on the occasion of breaking wp the rat bait at 124 Clinton place recently, and although the Police Court had decided that the tongs should be returned, Mr. Bergh refused to surrender them. think it is too bad, ' continued Mr. Ful- lerton. **that we can’t be allowed to kill these vermin. Thecity is getting to be overrun with-them since Mr. Bergh has broken up Harry Jennings’ business. I have regular contracts with large slaughter-houses and ho- tels to keep them clear of rats, which are vreat destroyers of property. In one slaughter- bouse in Fortieth street, near Eleventh ave- nue, they destroyed 4200 worth of livers ina night. Lhavehnown them to bite horses. W hen the streets are salted, rats will cat the heofs of the horses, sometimes rendering the animals useless. I have even known rats to bite children. Whether the rats’ bites are yoisonous or not depends upon what they have — cating. I was myself bitten so badly twice that l came near losing my arm. ‘The limb swelled to an enormous size, and the doctors said I would lose it. lam sure if Mr. Bergh had his house infested with rats, he would not think it a crime for us to kil them. Is it not dangerous to citch them!“ „er, unless you know how. The way I do is to gointoaroom in the dark and wait for them to come out. They must come out to get vod and water. IT wait until they get near my bait, and then, by the aid of my dark lantern, seize them in my bands and put them | ina bag. orelse 1 pick them up with my | sional men are in an insignificant minority. | There is alsoa remarkable difference between | themumber of married and unmarried persons tongs. Of course I’ve got to be quick about it, but I have spent many nights suarounded by rate without getting bitten. I have had them running all over me, on my head, up my ‘sleeves, and up the lers of my pants. You don’t minditwhen you get used to it. I often put my hand in u bag of rats and bring out any particular one that may be wanted. Good lively rats are worth about eleven cents each for arat bait, but thé business is very poor since Mr, Bergh took to breaking up the matehes. It don’t pay to catch rate unless we enn sell them, aud as yet the only use for rats is for rat baits. In Paris they use the skins to make gloves, but nobody has tried tbat here. But something must be done if Mr. Bergh keeps on. Look at the sewers! I could kill 400 rats any night, and they are now 80 ~ numerous that they walk boldly ue into the streets at night. Look at the markets; they are infested with them. it won't do to poison rats, because they die in their holes and their putrefied carcasses in- fect a honse with disease. Sometimes they eat linen and clothing to make their nests. You can’t catch them in traps unless you know now. That used to be my business iu Liver- pool, and how I did it is a secret. Itisa slow way for most peepee. Often they catch one rat in a trap, but never can catch another, al- though the rats may be iv the house.’’ Hats are very clean.’ They will not suffer as of dirt on their bodies, except, possi- Diy the tips of theiNtalls. They are very fond of sweet oll, and I h&ye seen them dip their tails in a bottle of swe oll and lick them off, us only wayg io get at their 1 est—which the company declared itself in- sclyent and unable to pay, should now, with the interest reduced to 6 per cent, be worth rather mere than three times as much as they were ashert time since, the company being | now no more able to pay the interest upon them than when it ostentatiously proclaimed itself bankrupt, and when its gross receipts were equal to those off the present time? got up for the purpose of inducing contiding rend, and in other seetions the proportion is less thun twelve per cent. The records of hospitals “of them had become so helplessly involved as Monday evening the ladies and gentlemen making new holes when they had plenty to run to. Sometimes they ges fo bo six or eight years old. I have gone up and sat down by rats and watched their movements, when they did not run away, because they were perfect: ly blind. I have seen them so old that they had lost nearly all their faculties. A great many people think we have a way of charming rats, but that is not so. We only know how to catch them because: it is our business. I often catch rats in the St. Nicholas, the St. he Sri the Hoffman House, and in Earle’s el. The use of dogs for killing rats is eom- mon, anda good raiter may be worth sever- al hundred dollars. One of the fifteen dogs seized by Mr. Berghin Clinton place was Worth $125, another Was worth 60, another Wis worth $35. My tongs were worth $25, because I nad to get them made for the pur- pore. I had got used to them, you see, and any other tongs are awkward in me hands. Now in order to learn to kill rats, dogs must have experience, and that's the use of rat baits. It educates the dogs and gets rid of the rats at the same time. Rats breed every six weeks, the mother bearing from sixteen to eighteen ina litter. So yousce if they are not killed off — would soon eat up enormous quantities of vod. think it is too bad that my friend Ed- wud Burt had to go to prison for three months for killing these vermin. Then the spectators were fined $400—all for killing deren rats, for only seven rats were killed out of the 207 that 1 furnished for that match.
