nSyp Two scientific gentlemen. of Tbomas

BxE TWO SclelUlC genlIemen, OF IhomaS-
vile, Ga, have lately been experimenting
with the rattesnake and the alleged anti
dote for its bite. Several experiments were
tried with dogs, which, after being bitten
were subjected 10 various remedies, which
were reputed to have been eificacious in
many instances, but which, in these cases,
failed entirely, the bite proving fatal in "a few
hours Whisky was finally tried, and the
dog, after being bitten on the fieshy part of
the thigh, was forced TO swallow several
gills of whisky at short intervals The
poor animal was made extremely sick for
several days, whether owing to the whisky
or the bite of the snake, the scientific gem
tlemen were unable to determine), but final
ly recovered, and at last accounts appeared
as we'll as ever.

New Route to NAVY Orleans.

Railroads are making astonishing revolu-
tons in travel. The upper valley of the
Tennessee river, whose quiet, five years ago
had never been disturbed by a train of cars
and through which a stranger seldom pass
ed among its magnificent scenery, has this
year become the great thoroughfare from
the southwest to the east. In few
months, travel will begin to desert the Mis-
sissippi river, and take to the railroad trains
that will pass through regions that have
been closed from the beginning of time to
travellers.
1t is reported that the contingent for car
rying the great northern and southern mail
been given to The Mobile and Ohio Rail-
road, with stipulation to deliver it in two
and half days from Cairo to New Orleans.
As soon as the gaps are filled up in the con-
struction of the road, the time between
Cairo and New Orleans will be reduced to
sixteen or eighteen hours. The company
take the mails from Cairo to Columbus, Ky.
thence to Jackson, Tennessee; thence over
the Mississippi Central Railroad to jackson,
Mississippi; from which place to New Or
leans, the cars have been running for six
months. The longest gap in the road, is be-
tween Columbus KY, and Jackson, Tenn,
of 4S miles in length. Two parties OF
tracklayers are engaged, one on each side
who are putting down twenty miles of raj
per month. BY the first of October thi 5
gap will be filled, and the distance viii then
be made in less than day and half a:
the other gaps are filled up, the time will
be reduced to eighteen or twenty hours
The whole distance from Columbus, KY, &c
Mobile and New Orleans, is only AGO miles

ENGLAND AND CuBA.-One of the late
leaders in the London Times hints pretty
decidedly that England will interpose no
further objections to the acquisition of Cuba
by the United States. 1t is satisfied that its
own country will never be allowed the ac-
tual possession of that island, and believes
that it would become of more importance,
commercially, to themselves, if it were under
American rule, than it now is, or ever will
be, under Spanish domination.

Bl idges and Houses Washed Away.
\ severe rainstorm visited the vicinity of
Leavenworth City on the 18th inst, and did
much damage. The Journal of the 10th
says:
1.-THE bridges over Three Mile Greek, on
Main and Fifth streets, were carried away
completely. The large bridge on Broadway
was partly destroyed. Houses, wagons and
bridges were carried away from Cincinnati
and Latta's addition down to this bridge,
where they formed regular dam.
Two houses were washed down on
Broadway from Latta's addition. One con-
tanned man and his wife and child. AS
the house was floating down Broadway, it
struck stump, and parted right in the
middle, leaving the familyNat the mercy of
the waters. A couple of Irishmen, named
Kilby and Kallahan, seing the danger of the
family, by the aid of the lightning, went to
their rescue, and succeeded in getting out
the woman and child. They then went
back after the man, and found him insen-
sible, but finally brought him out by the
assistance of a rope.
