hedn.-From the lst January of 1914 to that of
1888, Edmund Kean was the star of the British
stage, and what may be reckoned most noticea-
BILE in this nation of shopkeepers is, that his
individual talents drew more, and for the eXer-
ton OF those talents he himself received more,
than any three performers that CO existed with
him. His books show sum nearly averaging
10000 year for eighteen years. How with his
active life so vast a sum could have been ex-
pended-for he never gambled-is one of the
things that those who knew him best can never
cease to wonder at. He had some silly habits
of displays, such as travelling on all occasions
in carriage and four; but his household ex-
penses were always on moderate scale; yet a
few days before his death, he was in danger of
an arrest for a sum not exceeding fl00

snake He killed the snake, and then proceeded
home in the full belief that he must die. The
Vermont Statesman says, cdr Woodward was
called as soon as possible, and although the case
was extremely doubtful, he is now in a fair way
to recover. Much credit is due to Mr.. Briggs
wife, who manifested a presence of mind and
promptitude of action quite uncommon. 1t
appears that immediately on ascertdining the
situation of her husband, She applied her mouth
to the wound and continued sucking it until the
arrival of the Doctor, without which, notwith-
standing skilful medical aid, it is supposed he
must nave died. The snake was afterwards
found, which measured about four feet, and had
three rattes."
