More About Homestead.

On the first page we publish an article
clipped from the Palatka News. entitled
'.HOmesteaders In trouble"
We have hitherto refrained from ma
king any comments upon the homestead
difficulties arising IN Our neighbOrius
towns, but as the difficulties have BE-
come more manifest and general. We feel
that the circumstances demand an ex-
preston on our part. A short time ago
a contest was entered against the home
stead OF Miss Lille Moore. OF Riverside,
and upon thst entry appeared the name
OF Charles Merrill as a witness. aud
whether said witness was the instigatur
Of the action or not. he was at least
most ardent advocate Of the same. The
action every honorable and unprej
udlced person will say was unjust, and
the charges. as numerous witnesses will
testify, were unfounded. The case was
considered by the land agents at Gaines
VILE and dismissed without sufficient ev-
idence to warrant trial. But again this
Collina statesman pops to the surface
like cork: no ordinary land agents can
drown his ardent patriotism, but he
courageuusly takes the quill fiom he
hind his ear and beroically pens that ME
moral piece OF information To President
Cleveland. denouncing his whole neigh
borhood as robbers Of government prop
erIy, which brings down a special agent
to investigate the unlawful proceedings
But to tie surprise of tins rustic infer
msnt. they were not all ou>ted nor is
there any proepect of such action ON the
part of the government. The home
s,eaders are all honorable. industrious
and enterprising people. They have all
erected good, substantial houses, mot
barns) and have occupied those houses
as their homes. With good deal Of en-
ergy they have made IA number OF I'M
provements, and for one who can speak
no Stter for himself, to take 50 much
pride in the downfall Of others, portrays
disposition that his neighborhood and
the majority Of citizens at large fail to
appreciate and most heartily condemn.

The walls themselves were clean ard fresh.
In this house was found shrine in the

Leads an Intelligent foreigner residing in
Naples to remark that every now and then
there are attainable ocular demonstrations
of the way in which Herculaneum and
Pompeii were overwhelmed. The notion
that they were drowned in floods of lava is
pretty much overt brown. Instead ofthat II
is held to be settled that the destruction was
effected in two ways First, by the eject
ment from the volcano of pumice stone and
fine ashes; aud secondly, by drenching
rains, which Immediately followed, forming

thought likely that this mud hardened as

buried Herculaneum to a depth of sixt3,

How TO GET RID OF RATs.-An attempt
to catch rats by traps, or by poisoning them
suddenly, will fail. Old rats know too
much and can only be caught by kindness.
To destroy them give them good meal
every day. Do not put any poison in the
food, but simply prepare dish for them
daily, as free lunch, composed of corn meal
moistened with milk, into which an egg and
q little salt Ito season. has been beaten. At
first they may not touch it, but keep it be.
fore them, making it fresh daily. They will
soon try little, and if not injurious their
suspicious will be allayed. In week or
ten days they will expect it, and every rat
on the place will be at the appointed place
for the treat Give them plenty of it, SO as
to induce all the rats in the neighborhood
to ioin in. Do not be in hurry to poison
them. If they eat all the food give them a
larger quantity next time. As soon as they
have thrown off all suspicion go to your
druggist, get some phosphorus paste, or
other rat poison, mix it with the food, and
be sure you give them enough and some
thing to spare, so as to induce ali to eat.
They will either be killed or become 40 sus-
picious of all other food as to leave, and not
q rat will remain. Hence, to destroy rats
take plenty of time, gain their confidence,
and finish them when they least expect it.

RISE AND FALL OF A STEAMSHIP LINE.

RISE And FALL OF A STEAMSHIP LINE.
Anxious to reap the golden fruits derived
from the carrying Of the mails, and to also
show to the world that the United States
was as we'll able to build and organize a
fleet of swift steamers as Great Britain, MIR.
E. X. Collins launched his company, the
end of which was tragic one. He was to
receive q subsidy of S19,25O per voyage to
home built steamers carrying the mails of
the United States to and from Europe, and
he began nobly by constructing four mag
ni6cent steamers, the Arctic the Baltic, the
Atlantic and the Pacific. These vessels
were built Of live oak planked with pitch
pine, the null being extremely solid, and
divided into com partments, so that IN the
opinion of their builders, they were all but
proof against being sunk by collision or
by touching the ground. These steamers
began to carry the mails and passengers In
1850, and very soon Congress raised Mr..
Collins subsidy to S33, 900 per voyage and
fixed the minimum at SS5S, 900 por annum.
The Collins steamers, superbly furnished,
performed such runs across the Atlantic
as had never before been made and
one of them, the Arctic, after doing the
voyage from west to east in little over

Of the seas" Alas! the sad end came only
too soon. The captains took to racing, and
there was no personal management 20 stop
them. On the 21st of September, 1854,
"the clipper of the seas" left Liverpool for
New York with 233 passengers and a crew
of 135, nearly all of them Americans. When
within sixty miles of Cape Race the Arctic
colided with the French steamer Vesta; but
deeming his ship net much injured, the
American captain made for the Cape and be.
fore he had got far the water rushed in and
almost Immediately the splendid steamer
was engulfed in the waves. Only fourteen
passengers were saved, and among those
who persisted were the wife, son and daugh-
ter of Mr. Collins. Sixteen months later
came the still more appalling disaster to
the Pacific. She quilted Liverpool on the
2Sd of January, 1856, with forty.6ve pas
sengers, crew OF 141 persons, the mails
end cargo insured for over 100000.
The Pacific was timed to reach New York
the I'd of February, but she never reached
that port, nor any port on earth. The loss
sealed the doom of tho Collins Line.-BoSton
