Premature Funeral.


a. singular affair occurred lately at
a negro settlement known as Hog
Neck, . bont six miles from Cleveland,
Ohio. An old negro named Jacob
Sanders, Familiarity known as Old ia
key, diel (app arently) and his body
was put in a rough pine coffin which
was pla' ed in a wagon, and the pro-
cession-7 an unusually large one.
moved toward the grave While on
the way, the horse attached to the wa
gon, con taining the body, took fright,
and broke into run, upsetting the
wagon and throwing the coffin out -
1t rolled down small hill, being bad
" smashed on its. way The mourn
ers rushed to the spot, and were vast
ly amazed to see Old Jakey rising
from amid the ruins of his coffin, and
gazing stupidity around. His ink
black face, and snow white shroud,
formed I startling picture, turning the
amazempnt of the colored mourners
into fright, and alltook wildly to their
heels.
As soon as Old Jakey recovered
his scatt cred senses, he lay down en-
the ground and shouted Justify for the
mourners to come back They came
at length, cautiously--ene by one
and tie old fellow was carried home.
He was very we'll the next morning,
and don't intend to die for some time
yet. He had been aillug for several
days, and ap arently stopped breath
ing Fl $ limbs became stiff and biz
body cold, His under jaw fell and his
eyes sanx into his head He lay so
all right and part of the dayH-4up to
the 1 me in fact when the wagon up
set. It was evidently the shock of
the upst that resuscitated him.

An Extraordinary Snake Story

The Clariborne Oouisiana) Banner
or one of its correspondents, is respon-
sible for the following
About the year 1859 one E. Parker
moved to Bayou Kisatchie, in the
southern portion of Natchitoches Par
isb. During his travel there had been
a quantity of rain, which made it ne
cessary that everything should be
summed. One Of the feather beds had
by accident, hole torn in it about an
inch square. This hole was patched
while it lay on brush heap summing
Not long afterwards, The sleepers on
this bed were troubled with dreams of
snakes, and often its occupants actual
ly believed a snake was in the bed with
them, and would bounce out of bed in
great alarm, but ould return after a
vigorous but vain search. Two years
after Parker came to Kisatchie, the
eldest daughter was married to J. W.
Brown, and took this bed with her !;
yet its sleepers continued to be troub.
led with visions of snakes, and an oc-
casional search was instituted for the
intruder Four years after this mar
riage, Parker visited his daughter and
was put upon this bed
About ten o'clock he was heard call
ing for his son-in-law, /" John! John
come here quick, saw snake in my
bed p
Lights were bad, and though every
nook and corner was searched nothing
like a snake was found All retired
again, but were soon to be startlt d
again by the old mans excited cries
| for help and lights, as if he was hold
ing something with all his strength
John went to him thinking he had the
nightmare; but to his surprise found
him wide awake, and holding some
! thing under the covering with all his
might. After searching under the
covering, it was found to be a snake
on the inside of the tick among the
feathers. It was pulled out and was
found to be quite strong and active,
ard was about seven feet in length. -
Now the question for naturalists to
solve, is, how did this snake subsist
among the feathers, as it must have
been in there for six years without
food Of any kind or wafer? The tick
ing was new when the hole was torn,
and there never had been but that one
hole in the bed, until one was cut to
pull the snake ont.
We give this as strictly true. ].
w. Brown and his wife are still living
and will assert the same as above
Their post Office is Coushatta Chute,
La.

The Dam Roaring.

A young fellow who spanked a pas
tors daughter came one night to
her fathers house, which stood near a
mill dam, over which the waters rush
edswith considerable noise. He tap
ped lightly, at first but received no
answer. Again and again he repeat
ed his knock, but still unheard. Mus
tering up courage, he proceeded to
in1ict some severe thumps on the out
er door, which brought the said old
gentleman out.
Suppose, said the yonngster (who
had become by this time slightly saw
age, from being compelled to wait so
long)-I suppose you could not hear
me knock for the. dam roaring.
The damn roaring ! what do you

angry at hearing the young man swear
in his presence. a

in. No sooner was it down than ont
rushed the dogs, seizing the robbers
and bearing them to the ground.
At this moment party of miners,
who were on their way up the trail,
reached the spot. But they could do
for the robbers--so firm was
the hold of the dogs teeth upon their
throats and it was not released un-
til both the villains breathed their last.
The next morning they went on their
way, and after this incident, / learned
that the robbers were well known
characters, and deserved their fate,
