A SERPENT
| In the month ol August. 1881, ! was sail.

steamer Wasorsth, Capt. Norman, when,
ms We approached n noted spot on the river,
called the ..Rnbber's Cave" nv attention
was attracted by several loud scresms.--
! looked above where the sound seemed to
originate. and saw m eagle describing cir.
Giles III the air in the most beautiful and
graceful manner. As ii wheeled around
IN its gyrniluns with mathematical precis-
ion, out-sireichcd but mo,ioGless wings. il
ever and anon uttered the peculur scream
which first drew INV attention. Whilst I
was gazing in admiration at its elegant
curves, i, suddenly changed It's motion. aud
descended nth almost uncomfortable vcloci-
~ in n perpendicular line 10 the enrih.-
II went down rs one Of the psssengers des-
cribed il, "ike DIRT" Before we could
express or give any opinion concerning iia
object, il again nrose aud ascended 10 n
greater height, with rapility almost equal
to its descent, bearing in its besk a large
serpent! AS it mounted up. The long l,ody
oi the snake hung down from the beak III
the eagle like the end oi n large, rope. u
was not, however, liiclcss. II squirmed ia
every direction, and made strong efforts ior
its dcliyercnce. But in vain. The eagle
held il with death grre.
The serpent resolving To sell his life dear

wings were his only means of safety. IL
these became bound, he mus, perish with
his enemy. All his efforts. however, could
not disiod ge the snake The wiIv serpent

tightly around him. II now had the
advantage in the contest. The pinions of
the eagle were pinioncd. The snake coil
ed like rope around the BODY Of lis ndvcr-

ceased. The crgle was conquered! They
both begun 10 fall, bound together as thcy
were. They came down ms rapidly as they
had ascended, and FELL into i.e river. Sn
