A steamboat in a Tornado.

A New Orleans paper of a recent
date describes a disaster in the follow
ing vivid style "On the 18th instant,
as the weIl-knOwn and splendid steam
boat Natchez was coming down the
river, and while opposite the lower end
Of Natchez Island, some twenty miles
this side of the city of that name, she
was struck by a terrible tornado from
the Louisiana side, which in a seeODd
had wrenched her immense chimneys
from their sockets, broken all the stanch-
ions loose. eut short of the steam pipes,
and thrown them into a wreck on the
upper deck on the right side, which,
giving way with their weight, broke
and fell with q terrible crash on the
lower deck. whence it was tumbled into
the river. The officers in charge, even
though the tornado struck without a
moments warning, rushed to their
posts, and clearing the wreck, the
pilots stood by the wheel and urged
her on TO the island. The scene was
terrible IN the extreme; the river was
one mass Of yellow foam, the sky was
as s-black as night, and the wind OF such
terrific violence that no man could
stand against it. In this emergency all
rested on the skill and deter naination of
the officers and pilots. The position Of
these latter was one of great danger.
Elevated Ia a frail piiot-house a hun
dred feet above the river, with It's sup
ports gone, its stanchions smashed and
trembling in every timber, as II Il would
follow the chimneys, they expected
every moment to be hurled into eternity.
The smoke and escaping steam rushed

Ton Of Dead Cinnamon.

The average American contemplates
in stupid bewilderment the tenacious
faith of the disciples of COnfucius in the
religious necessity that wherever death
NAV overtake them their dust must be
sent back to the FlowerY Kingdom to
rest in the bosom of Mother Earth.
Possibly, it is a silly superstition, but
ourI'sheathen Chinee" fellow beings live
up to it ever so much more consistently
that we live up to our superstitions.
The Orihamme, from Portland, a few
days ago, brought down over ton Of
the mortal remains of Mongolians who
had shufaed of their coils in Oregan.
This queer cargo is to be reshipped
from this port to China. The fact that
so thrifty people as the Chinese should
incur the great expense they do for
such a purpose, proves the strong hold
which the custom has upon them. The
mere preparation of the bodies to be
shipped costs S25 each and when the
expenses Of packing, freight, reshiP-
ment, etc, is added, it must amount
to about as much as an industrious Chi
naman, living upon the most economical
principles, esn save In year.-S01l

Southern Crop News.

We learn from farmers that the cotton
caterpillar fly has made its appearance
in this and adjoining counties. If the
cotton crop is destroyed in this section
by these pests this year as it was last,
the majority of our farmers viii be ut
terly bankrupt.-Etyiaula (AIa.) } Ne1Os.
We learned yesterday from a we'll
known planter, who runs several large
farms in Lee and Dougherty counties,
that the late rains have given all grow
ing crops a serious " setback" Before
the rains the prospect was as fine as
could have been desired, particularly as
to oats. Now, however, rust has made
its appearance everywhere, and the loss
on that crop viii be heavy. Cotton Is
Cying out every day, and corn looks
yellow and sickly.-MacOR Telegraph
and Messenger.
Thousands of acres of corn in East
Mississippi viii, in consequence of the
unpropitious weather that we have had
of late, have to be planted over again,
and if this entailed no greater loss than
that of seed, it would be a heavy bur
den to our farmers. We have heard of
some few good stands of corn in this
county, but as a general rule those who
have not planted have saved time and
labor and seed.-A6eroleea MISS E'x-
dgliRer.

Starting Melons.

The following unique plan, which we
find adrilt without credit, is said to be
the one long IN use by man who has
had remarkable success in growing mel
ons. We suppose il would answer
equally veil with squsshes aud similar
pfents: 81 dig holes twelve inches
eauare. eight or ten inches deeps III
No with well-rotted manure TO the sur
face. On this put two inches OF soil.
Tben take q foJir-inch flower pot set IN
fbe centre draw the remainder Of the
soil around the pot. until the soil Is
about fonr inches deep, then giving tbs
pot a twist round withdraw is. This
leaves q hole four inches deep by four
vide. In this drop five or six seeds,
and cover to the depth Of three-quarters
of an inch. Over this place a pane Of
six by eight glass, pressing i lightly 70
tft close. I then give no more attention
till the plants are touching the glass.
Then 90 through, taking small stone
raise MP one end of the glass with Il (;
this admits Of q circulation Of air over
the plants and hardens them. In about
three DAYS more remove the glass en-
tirefy. By this time they viii be IN the
rough leaf thin out to three plants IN
a hill, draw q little fine soil around
them, MP as high as the seed leaf, and
the work Is done.

Oleomargarine.

O'e e1nargarine-which Is counterfet t
butter-is giving a great deal of trou
BILE. 1t is a fine, long name for the con-
centrated sence of astiness, the arti-
Gle being made from fat and filth, and
colored with something that may be
poisonous, though poison would not
seem to be necessary to render such a
production dangerous and repulsive.
1t is only the fine name, however, that
is new, counterfeiting butter being as
old as rascality,-and that is as old as
humanity. No one knows who invented
or discovered butter, but we do know
that it was counterfeited rs soon as nj n
awoke to the excellence there was in the
plan of buttering their bread on both
sides,-which created demand for t,
and that caused counterfeiting Good
butter is a sweet thing, and-when you
can't get anything better-nothing Is
better than new and we'll made bread
and pure butter bat were no butter to
be eaten, men would be all the better
for their abstinence from all use of the
golden grease.

rhe Reglsterea Letter Bnslness.

On the first Of Jannary the pOstmas-
ter general reduced the rate Tor regis
tered letters from fifteen cents and the
regular postage to eight cents and the
postage. Since that time the business
has increased over one hundred per
cent, the average increase IA large
cities being from fifty TO sev-nty-five
per cent The present rates compare
very favorably with those OF Englsn5,
although there are many difficulties IN
this country not 70 be met with IN the
suanller ana .1ore thi-kly populated
countries OF the Old World. Tho last
annual reports show that IN Canada
the loss in registered letters and pack
ages was 10, IN Great Britain 20, and
IN the United States 400. II the in
crease of business continues through
ont the year, five million registered
letters vii be sent, against two and a
half MI lions last year.

From the Shadow Of the Guillotlns.

One of tFs most remarkable escapes
ever made was made by NJ. de Chateau
brun during the Reign Of Terror IN Par
is. He was sent to execution with
twenty other prisoners but after the
fifteenth head had fallen the guiliosine
got out Of order, and q workman was
sent for to repair it. The six remaining
victims were left standing IN front Of
the machine with their hands tied be
hind them. A French crowd is very
curious, and the people kept pressing
forward to see the man arranging the
guillotine. By degrees NJ. de Chateau
brun, who was to the rear of his COM
panions, found himself in the front line
Of the spectators. then in the second,
and finally we'll behind those who had
come to see his head cut on. Before
the man could get the guill2tine in
working order night began to fall, and
M. de Chnteaubrun slipped away.
When in the ChsEps Elysees he told q
man that a wag had tied his hands and
robbed him Of his hat, and this simple
individual cut him free. A few days
later If. de Chateauhrun escaped from
France.

Cremation.

All the current newspaper-talk about
the substitution of cremation for burial
owes its inspiration to a passage in the
viii of rich English eccentric, dying q
few months ago, whereby the sum Of
fifty pounds was bequesthed to tie
London gas company on condition that
said corporation should cause the testa-
tors dead body to be consumed to
ashes IL one of their great retorts. In
parts Of India where the dead are burn
ed the use of peculiar ointments and
woods in the pyre prevents all gaseous
exhalations, while a winding-sheet of
asbestos preserves the ashes IN state
of absolute purity.

man Of them moved, but, elinging to
the wheel with all their strength for
twenty minutes, they kept her to the

solemn, not to say severe, she seems OF
