Contrary to our anticipation, the speeches of Lord
Stanley at Warrington last night afforded no materials
for comment. His Lordship was all smoothness and ur-
banity: compliments flowed from his lips, and he re-
velled in common-place. For a: man of his conscious
power to so deal in harmless nothings must have been
a task of considerable difficulty. Once, indeed, he
approached a subject that would have probably given
greater vigour to his periods. He just touched upon
free-trade, probably to feel the pulse of his auditory.
There was such au evident disunion of sentiment, how-
ever, amongst those present, some cheering and some
hissing, that he shrunk from the exciting topic, and
stepped back into the quiet path which he had quitted
but for a moment.—Liverpool Times.

A GREAT SNAHH.—Mr. Charles J. Muschert, to-
ha •conist, Market-street, and Mr. R. W. Warneck, this
morning, caught in the cellar of the residence of the former,
Filbert-street, a large snake, suppo.,ed to be of the boa
constrictor species. His snakeship made a tremendous noise
among the crocks and pans in the cellar, about ten or eleven
o'clock last evening, which aroused the lady of Mr. Mus•
chart, but she thinking that the Sound proceeded from rats
retired to rest. Upon an examination this morning the huge
reptile was discovered snugly resting upon one of the shelves
quiet and contented, after a plentiful feast upon rats. The
snake is thought to have belonged to the former residents of
the house; or perhaps it may have escaped from some cage.
Mr. Muschert has occupied the house about one week. The
serpent is about seven feet in length, and in the centre mea-
sures at least six inchesin circumference. It is of a dark
colour, dotted singularly with beautiful golden spots. Mr.
Muschert, not relishing such a pet, took it up to Barnum's
Museum, where it can be seen as one of the greatest curiosities
of that far-famed establishment. Colonel Sandford has him
well caged, in company with a big anaconda.—. Philadelphia
