whether the former remain in the ship
at port is beat known to themselves.
When the East India Company had
•hips of their own they employed a rat
catcher, who nometiinej captured 5iH)
rats in one ship ju«t returned from Cal

species. Sometimes black and brown
inhabit the same vessel, and unless they
carry on,perpetual hostilities, one party
wBl seep in the head of the vessel and
the otherto tho stern. The ship rat is
very anxious that his supply of fresh
water shall not fail; he will edme on
deck when it rains, and clihtb up to tho
wet sails to suck them. Sometimes he
mistakes a Spirit cask for a water cask,
and hd gets drunk. A captain on ah
American ship is credited for discred
