The Vile du Hayre Disaster.

LONDON, DECEMBER Z.
The account of the Vile du Havre dis
aster given by the rescued crew repre-
sents that the Captain and Second Mate
Of the steamer came on board the Loeb
Erne shortly after the collision, and did
not assist in saving any of the passengers,
and that the majority Of the French crew
exhibited lamentablc cowardice.
The Captain of the Loeb Erne makes
the following statement of the circum.
stances attending the collision with the
steamer: After first sighting the steamer,
and seeing that she was coming danger.
Ously near, the Captain of the Loeb Erne
rang the ships bell and ported his helm.
The helm of the steamer was put to star.
board, but the steamer came right across
the Loeb Erne's bow. The people in the
first boat from the French steamer did
not say she was sinking, but the Captain
of the Loeb Erne observing that the
steamer was settling down, sent out his
boats.
Neither the first French boat nor Sec
ond, which Arrived shortly afterward,
bringing the first and second officers of
the Vile du Havre, attempted to return,
but, in spite of the expostulations Of all
the crew which were left on board the
Loeb Erne, and the threats of their mates
to fire upon them, remained alongside the
Loeb Erne. The clothing of the French
officers who reached the deck of the
Loeb Erne was dry, showing no signs of
their having been in the water. Finally,
some Englishmen seized and manned one
of the French boats, and went to the res
cue of those struggling in the sea. Only
one of the French boats crew assisted in
the rescue.
The Captain of the Lock Erne consid.
ers that the great loss of life resulted
from the fact that his vessel drifted such
a long distance from the steamer after the
collision before it was possible to shorten
sail, from the hardness of the steamer in
showing signals of distress, and from the
misconduct of the French crew.

Storing Eggs the Large End Down.

We have seen the directions given nu.
merous times to pack eggs with the little
end down, which is decidedly wrong.
After careful observation and comparison
for two seasons, we have proved indis
putably that both for eating and setting,
eggs do keep much better the large end
down. There is after a week a marked
difference in eggs kept in positions as re-
CARDS the spreading of the air bubble
which is we'll known to affect both the
freshness for eating and vitality for setting
of stored eggs-and after three weeks the
difference can be discerned even by the
taste alone. 1t will, of course matter lit
tie which mode is adopted, provided the
eggs are used for either purpose within a
short time; but the longer kept, the great
er the difference increases from the two
positions: and~while eggs stored with the
small end down cannot be depended upon
after fortnight to produce more than
proportion of chickens, those kept in the
way we now advocate will keep perfectly
good for Matching a month, or even
more
We have known eggs kept month
hatch, fairly, even on the old system
but we are now speaking of usual and
average results, and simply place at the
service of fanciers in general the results
of patient trial, which have abundantly
satisfied ourselves that there is a real diff
ference in the product of the two posi-
tions. With regard to packing, so far as
actual injury is concerned, we believe
there is no difference whatever in the two
ways; but if the journey occupy any time
the same position should be maintained
for similar reasons.
Our attention was first called specially
to the subject by most intelligent lady,
who advocated this plan, alleging as the
probable reason of its superiority, "keep-
ing eggs on the small end appears to me
to cause the air bubble to spread, detach-
ing it from the shell, or rather from its
membraneous lining; and after being so
kept for fortnight the air bubble will be
found to be much spread, and the eggs to
have lost much vitality, though still very
good for eating."-Neao York Herald.

The Secretary condemns the practice Of paying in

Coal Ashes rs q Fertilizer.

A correspondent of the Department of
Agriculture at Franklin, Pa, writes: I
have always believed that coal ashes had
. value for agricultural purposes, and have
advocated the free use of them, particu-
larly on limestone soil. This season de
termined to get closer to the root of the
matter, and test their value fully. I had
a plot of ground on which I had been un-
successful for several years in raising good
EARLY Rose potatoes. The soil was in the
best condition always. The tops did we'll.
This spring l had the ground scored
about six inches deep, placed the cut po-
tatOes in the bottom, and filled up with
coal ashes. The plants grew finely, not.
outstanding the dry weather. The tops
did not fall over, even, after the weather
changed, and I secured crop of the very
best potatoes for the table ever raised.
The second experiment was with onion
seed and coal ashes. put out five good
sized beds in seed. In four the seed was
covered with soil; the fifth covered with
sifted coal ashes. The result surprised
every person that knew of the experiment
and watched its progress.
A third experiment was started on seed,
which promised utter failure to those who
looked on. The end has not yet been
reached, but I am more than satisfied
with the result thus far, and fully satisfied
that my experiment will bring me at least
800 more than if left untried. have
abiding faith in coal ashes, and am ready
to use all can purchase.

Ii, however, before that date Spain
should prove to the satisfaction of the
Government of the United States that the
vlrginius was not entitled to carry the
flag of the United States, and was carry.
ing it at the time of her capture without
right and improperly, the salute will be
spontaneously dispensed, as in such case
not being necessary or reputable; but the
United States will expect in such a case.

Further, that If, on or before the 25th of
December, 1873, it shall be made to an
pear to the satisfaction of the United

titled to American papers, the United
States will institute an inquiry and adopt
legal proceedings against the vessel. if it
be found that she has violated any law of
the United States, and against anv of the
persons who may appear to have
been guilty of illegal acts in con

stood that Spain will proceed accord.
ing to the second proposition made
to General Sickles, and communicated to
Admiral Polo on the Goth instant, to in

honorary obligations, and will arraign
them before competent courts and inflict
punishment upon those who may have
offended.

Virginius and the survivors of those who
