HE SNAKE AND THE SQUIRREL On the
18th day Of May last, Twas riding on a
small road in the 18th district of Dooly
county, near the AIlapahaw, when saw
common zed fox squirrel sticking 10 the
side of pine tree, some six or eight inch
es from the earth. When got opposite The
squirrel, saw him move a little on the
side of the tree. rode some 30 or 80
yards past he'squirrel, when the idea &C.
cured to me that it might be charmed by
stake. | Immediately turned back in the
direction Of the squirrel, and when got
within eight steps Of the tree where the
squirrel was, at once heard rattle snake
commence singing, apparently under the
offa few yards, stopped and looked back,
and saw very venemous looking rattle
snake and not more than four and half
or five feet long, Immediately dismounted
from my animal and took up light wood
limb that lay near by. and gave the snake
a pretty heavy blow: which caused him to
sing loud and strong, and at the time |
struck the snake the squirrel leaped from
the tree think about three feet, and it
seemed to me the squirrel loaped higher
than far. | gave the snake second blow,
and the squirrel leaped again, and so on,
until gave the snake third blow, when
the snake sung weaker, and the squirrel
seemingly got weaker in proportion.
then went to the tree thinking to find
the snake that had charmed the squirrel,
but il was no. there nor no nearer than
eight steps, looked at the squirrel, could
not see anything the matter with it, but it
appeared to be tired almost TO death, pant
ing and struggling for breath. returned
TO the snake, and with the same limb
pecked his head soft; Iagain returned TO
the squirrel, and saw him in about one
minute breath his last. took up the squir-
rel, and blood had run out Of his left nos
triI down the jaw and neck, and down the
left fore leg, and off at the foot. am
certain tina, the squirrel was never hurt by
me. After partly killing the snake, when
first went TO the squirrel, | touched its
thigh with the Toe of my boot-it never
moved or tried TO get out Of my way. |
give it as my opinion. that killing the
snake was the cause of the squirrels death.
The snake was not larger around, | think,
than the wrist Of a large man. He had
five ra,tles and button-Sarannah Geo

The OaEooN. CAPT RASDALL's NEW

on Monday evening in an unfinished state,

is one Of the most perfect modelled boats
on the Lakes, SO far as we are able to
Judge. Her internal arrangements COM
bine all the late improvements in the con-
struclion Of steamboats, besides some which
are peculiarly her own. She has most
spacious upper deck cabin. being 49, feet
long, same as that Of the Empire, and two
feet wider, which is TO be finished and or
namented in the best style. On either side
Of this dlbin are range Of spacious state
rooms, with three berths each, and as large
as small sleeping rooms ashore. On The
main deck there are aft two cabins, for the
accommodation Of the Storage passengers,
and most exce,len;ly located they are for
this purpose. She is Of the larger class OF
boats, being Of 500 tons burden. Her en-
CINE is the double cylinder Leech Clipper,

A FRENcHMAN EATEN BY SAvAGEs.-
The following horrible story, illustrating
the customs of the NewZealanders, is ta-
ken from letter, dated Akarod, and adj
dressed to the French paper La presse:
"Our countryman Thierry who endeav-
ored some time ago to found an indepen-
dent kingdom in New Zealand, but was pre-
vented, by the non concurrence of the Eu-
ropean powers, from carrying out his de-
signes, had gathered several Of the tribes
Of the Natives around him by promising
them many things which he we'll knew he
could never perform. These good people
placed implicit faith in those promises for
q considerable time, but discovering AT last
that they had been deceived, they determin-
ed 10 rid themselves Of their king. This
act they performed with great soIemnity
a splendid feast was prepared, and the
whole population Of this petty kingdom,
having assembled around huge table, the
body Of Monsieur Thierrp was served up
in the best style Of New Zealand cookery.
each person having been honored with a
nibble al the body Of their late sovereign.
This singular story is confirmed by several
travellers, who state that they received i,
from the savages themselves, who boosted
that they had partakcn Of this horrible
feast"

A NEW ARTICLE OF ExpoRT.-We are
told that a Yankee broom maker in Ohio
has leased twelve hundred acres Of bottom
land, OH the Scioto river, near Columbus,
and planted the entire plot in broom corn,
,ilh the view TO export the crop 10 Eng
land, where he intends TO proceed himself,
and engage extensively in the manuiac-
turing OF brooms, taking with him the wood
for the handles, and machinery used for
the purpose. Brooms made from the A.
merican broom corn are so much superior,
for various uses, 10 sny thing 10 be had 10
England, that they have become, within a
few years past. quite in favor in that coun-
Try. and are now exported ihther in large
quantities. The duty aad freight on the
manufactured article, add largely to the
cost of delivery in England, but by ship
ping the manufactured materials in a
compact shape, these two items Of expense
are rendered merely nominal. This new
enterprise is one OF the phases, in which
the Ingenuity and industry of our country
men exhibits itself, and no doub, II will
prove profitable. We want nothing but
freedom of trade 10 develope the manifold
resources OF this country. Who would
have dreamed, few years since, Of The
