carry on a corntnercial intercourse will) France.—.

.A'melancholy accident happened on Wednesday
last, on- board the brig Dart, of New Orleans, lying
at Ritchie's Dock, Belfast, The Captain, previous
to sailing, having given orders to 'stove the vessel
with cilatcoal, tor the purpose of destroying rats,
&reeled that none of the seamen should sleep in the
forecas,le that night, as suffocation would certainly
.be the consequence. John Grenada, a seaman, dis-
regarding flits advice given, went down to his birth
unperceiveand next morning he wa4: found docl
in his hammock.

A DELICIOUS PEPAS T! •

[Froth the Trenton True American.]

The following curious circumstances are Certified
to us by several respealable citizens of this county,
and published at, their request :
On the 3d of July last, as a number of mea were .
riking hay in a meadow belonging, to Daniel
Thatcher; in the upper part of thiS county, they
raked up a number of snake's eggs. Daniel Pels,
who was one, of the company, toOk, up one. of the
eggs, and said he would swallow it for 26 cents.
This being promised httn, he instantly swallowed
it accordingly. In about three quartets of an hour
he began to complain of feeling sick, and went to
the house, when he took succeasis)ely three pints of
warm Water—a riot of sweet milk-156 drops of
antimonial wine—and a spoonful of sweet oil—to
enable him to throw the egg off his stomach---but
in vain. He continued to complain of gnawing at
his stomach until the morning of the 27th August,
when he vomited up a live snake (believed to be a
pilbt) seven inches long ! The snake died sou after.
it was discharged, but it was preserved in ruin.
Pels is of. opinion there are yet ‘F a considerable
number" of snakes in his stomach—and this is ren-
dered probable by the fact, that those egg's w hick
were broken open had each six or seven young
snakes in.
