"A traveller coming from America (says
the London Globe) brought quantity Of
cigars with him in large box, and not
wanting to pay duty, he had a. false top
made to his box, in which he placed a
couple CT big rattlesnakcs. On arriving at
the Custom House the keys were demanded
and given up with warning that the box
contained poisinous snakes. The officer
being incredulous, opened the lid of the
box in an of-hand, careless manner. Hear
ing the noise of the key in the lock, and
seeing daylight admitted, the rattlesnakes
woke up, and began to hiss and rattle
away with their tails at grand pace
Down went the lid of the box in an instant,
and the box, rattlesnakes, cigars, and all,
were allowed to pass without further ex-
animation.

An old Game Neooly Played. Conf
dence is very good thing in its way. but it is
never a good idea TO be possessed of an over
stock. So thought Mr.. Roswell Crandall, of

the following sweetly worded note

Dear Sir:
There has a man died here lately that

Mr.. Crandall, though the bait was rather
tempting, was not inclined to bite. He had
heard about ''the confidence game and knew

from the pockets of unsuspecting individuals by

Gov. Washburn.

As the returns from the remote towns are
gradually received, our qualification at the
result of the election must be Increased. The
majority for Israel washburn will nearly, II
not quite, equal that by which ho was chosen
last year, with much heavier vote thereby
showing that he has gained rather than lost
in popularity by tho manner in which he has
administered the Government.
Few Of the Govepors Of the loyal States
have found as great difficulties to contend
against as Israel Washburn. With no prac-
tical militia system in active operation, he
was suddenly called upon to produce rcgi.
ment after regiment, armed, ofIiccred, and
equipped, ready for the service Of the Repub-
lie. II was inevitable that some errors, moro
or less serious should be committed, wo have
reason to wonder that these errors were so
few. and to be surprised that, at the present
moment. eight complete regiments have been
despatched to the seat Of war, that ninth
is partially organized, and that the first is
nearly ready to depart for the second tipe,-
There Is no State that can present fairer
record on the great WAT question than our
own. and we are enabled to say this because
of the untiring industry and persistent energy
of our Governor. ....
While doing all that any man could have
done towards placing Maine in her proper
position before the country on the great ques-
tion ofthe day, our own domestic affairs have
not been neglected; in the excitement OF a
political canvass, the most inveterate enemies
o. the Governor, had not the effrontery to
accuse him Of even the slightest mal-admln-
istra.ion Of affairs, and Israel washburn
stands second time the chosen man Of the
people, with record as fair n that Of any
American citizen.-Porfland Adpertiser.
