Ga Monday morning at 10 O'Clock an

the presence of severalgentlemeu, with
the view OF ascertainini the effect Of the
bite or sting Of one Of hose reptiles. A
Worm, found in Loms ardy Poplar, was
placed before Cat, rdther more than
alt.grown. 10 attempting to smell, she
was stuug in the nose. In about fifteen
minutes she tainted away, and remained
apparently lifrless for Eve minutes af-
ter which, she exhibited marks Of yio-
lent internal pains, and in IS minutes d.
ed. The worm is of pale chocolate
color: has fork At the extremity of the
tail, having from ten to fourteen feet.
They vary in size, some being bu. an
inch, othersfour inches long. They are
extremely strong and animated. Ar.
senie, yitrial and aqua FORTS have been
applied to them, without producing in.
slant death. Some Of these worms, we
understand, have been left with Mr..

A gentleman who has made some OBJ.
