RATHER TOUGH 'uN.-We find the following yarn in the N. Y. Tribune
 A few days since vessel from the Al rican coast arrived at Salem. Mass, bringing as "passenger" one of the most enormous boa constructors that "we read of" but which never before has been cap tured by man. It was caught in q heavy rope-net made for the purpose, and while coiled up, this net was thrown over him, and the captain of the vessel solemnly av- CTS that it required the united efforts of 126 negroes for more than seven hours to secure his snakeship l'' He measures thirty feet in length-and the morning be- fore his arrival fifty seven eggs were found in his cage, which were deposited in a single night, and the aggregate weight ol these snake eggs is seventy pounds !' One of the eggs being broken was found to contain young snake seven inches long, which immediately upon emerging from the shell, crawled about the cage with great rapidity. A few days, therefore, will doubtless bring the other fffy-six young snakes to light.
 What nest of serpents
 As soon as the arrival of the vessel and its extraordinary freight were known, seve- ral menagerie companies dispatched their agents for Salem, and Barnum also dis patched his manager Hitchcock. A tele- graphic dispatch of this morning announ- ces that neither of the s.showmen" have as yet purchased this monstcr-its owner de- manding $ll,O0o for it. Angeyine & Titus's agent offered $7,000, and Mr. Hitchcock offered $7,5000, but neither offer has as yet been accepted. This is truly valuable reptile sa Ha

 OFFICIAL, PAPERs-The fourth of Jg- y.-The Washington Union of the 7th inst. presents the ratified Mexican peace treaty in two languages, with the Presi- dents proclamation signed at Il o'clock on the 4th July. The Union says "The date of the Presidents proclamation with the date of the declaration of American independence. Many of our public trans. actions are completed so as to signalize more and more that important day. MT. Riyes's convention with France was sign cd on 4th of July; so was the treaty with China. The act by which the annexa- ton of Texas was sanctioned and recog- nised by the Congress of Texas, arrived at Washington on the 4th of July. The subsequent recognition, by the convention of the people of Texas, took place on the same day and now the ratified treaty with Mexico arrives in Washington or the national anniversary, and the Presi- dents proclamation announcing it bears date on the same day." oeH a
