Thrilling lNcIDESr.-The following was pub6sbad

Last week a woman residing in the vicinity of Wor-.
eester' was picking .blackberries in a field near the
house, having with her her only child. a brirbt-eved
little fellow Of less than a yearsold.
Inc babe sat upon the ground, amusing itself with
grhsPsng at ciamps Of yellow weed that grew within
reach, and eating berries brought him from time 10
ume by his mother. The later, at length. intent
upon gathering fruit, passed round a rock which hid
her child from view. She was about TO return 10
him, WHEN, hearing him laughing and Growing H.
great glee, and thinking be must be safe as long as
ne was 50 happy, she remained a little longer where
sne was Suddenly the Itle voice ceased, and after
a moments delay the - mother stepped upon
the rock and looked ovd thinking to see her babe,
asleep instead of viii he was sitting perfectly
fixed with a singular oppression upon some object
which at first she was unable to discern.
ABut who judge ofEer horror, when, ON closer
R1Iny, she perceived, some four or five feet from
h. FAINT, a otIesnake, with its glittering eyes
iasasn 5, and me nearing him BY an almost
peril so p~aralyzed her Hhst for an instant she half
believed the dreadful mSAAtjpn had extended to
herself but the certainty that, 3nless she was the
instrument Of salvation to her childy e was inesita-
bly, lost, in some degree restored her >Yer She
glanced wildly around her for something tn might
be used as a weapon, but nothing appeared> hand
already the venomous reptile had passed over .hf
the space which divided him and his victim. AnothA
er moment and all would be lost. What could be
done; In her hand she held a broad tin pan, and
springing from the rock, quick as thought she covered
the snake with it and stood upon it to prevent its es-
cape The charm was broken-the child swayed to
one side and began to sob. At the same time the mother
recovered her voice and screamed for aid, retaining her
position until 1t arrived, when the cause Of her terri
bic fright was dispatched.

european Demand for American

Grain.
The general failure OF the potato crop in
Great Britain, Ireland and France, seems TO
be at last universally admitted fact The
extent TO which this crop is cultivated and
the large space which il fills as an article Of
consumption BY the people Of Ireland and Of
France, renders the failure Of the crop IA
great national calamity in both countries.
Being deprived Of their potatoes, the peo-
pie Will have TO look to something else TO
supply their place. And us the grain crops
are also shdN there, there will be an i'm
mense vacuum Ia the breadstuff market to be
filed from abroad. Our crops are abundant,
and unless the very fact that this grea, mar
ket is opened to our people should induce
them to hold on for too high prices till the
demand Is supplied from other quarters, We
may look FOR very great relief in the present
financial pressure from the money which will
be sent TO the United States to purchase
wheat and corn for Europe.
The article in another column from the
Mark Lane Express, London, contains the
views Of the very highest authority in Great
Britain upon questions relating tn the bread
stuff market.
