IVtint the Farmers say :
A late writer says that "the various species of vermin
1 am multiplying at a tearful rate throughout the land.—
Their ravages have heroine a matter of set ions dread "
A Postmaster in Illinois, writing to "Cosier V Depot,
j says, "The country is literally overrun with thotn, {ruts,
I mice, &.c.") Another, from the same State, says, " The
I rats positively gnaw the halters off my horses while in
! the stable." An Ohio correspondent remarks, "They
| (the rats) are everywhere—in the house, the barn, and
i under every stump in the field." In the South it is still
worse. A late order from the Navy Yard at Mobih was
for thirty pounds of the Rat Exterminator alone.
