MOUSE DEvoURINe SNAKE-About two years
ago, Mr.. William Donnelly, the gentlemanly Post
master at the Bairsvie Intersection, Westmoreland
county, received present from friend, two large
rattlesnakes, which he preserved in box covered
with glass. After keeping them for some time, it
was but natural to suppose that the pets should
be :" . hungered" Acting upon this idea, and being
under the impression that snakes would only eat iy-
ing foed Mr. DonneIy caught four OF Eve mice, and
put them in the cage with their Shiny companions,
to be, as was then supposed, devoured ct single
gup But, to the establishment o. the beholdea, he
MICE for several days. coverted the snakes with
seeming zest, and enjoyed themselves a. well AZ
could be expected under the circumstances" Finally,
one OF the mice, being gnawed with hunger, COM
menced gnawing at the snakes. During this opera.
ton his snakeship would sometimes remain perfectly
quiet; but, other occasions, would raise his head
and dart forth his forked tongue, at which time
1" =. our small rodent quadrupedn would make
into the corner. But when the snake returned to
its qaiescent position, the mouse partook again Of
its dainty meal and really continued this operation
until eat 80 much of the flesh as to leave part Of
the backbone and several OF the ribs on either side
exposed, from which the snake finally died.

alternative but to go over the DAM gathered his two
children and jumped into the pond, instructng his

taken into the boat by the ferryman, in which she
remained until it passed over the dam, which feat it
performed with perfect safety, dragging the dead
horse, which was drowned by falling overheard,
