"A Man Bitten by Decapitated
RRttlcSnalkc.
Syracuse, May 9th, 1865.

One of the most extraordinary cases of the
effects of snake bite of which We have heard,
occurred last Saturday at Balls Praire in the
northern part of this county Mr.. Jacob
Schuster, u farmer, was engaged in moving,
and in swinging his scythe, severed a rattle
snake a few inches below the head. He then
prompted by curiosity, proceeded to examine
the reptile, and approached il for that pur.
pose, supposing it to have been rendered
harmless, when it instantly threw its head
about and fastened its fangs in his thumb
He threw the snake off by jerking his hand
violently, and Immediately his entire system
received shock from the venom infused into
it by the snake. His arm swelled rapidly to
four times its natural size, and became of a
dark color He was seized with vomiting and
purging blood, and it even oozed through the
pores of his skin, and large blsters filled with
blood covered his arm and hand. His agony
was intense, and all efforts to relieve him
were futile, and it was found necessary to cal
medical aid. A messenger was therefore
dispatched to this city for DR.. Stages, and he
Immediately repaired to the residence of Mr.
Schuster, arriving there carly Monday morn
ing. He found him suffering greatly, ant
though the case seemed hopeless, made every
effort to counteract the poison which was
spread through his system. When DR.. Sta
pies left him, at about noon on Monday, the
patient was some easier, but there was little
expectation of his recovery.-Dubuque Her

THE ROSE BUD.

Thou beautiful rose bud,
Emblem of youth,
AZ Emblem of virtue,
OF love and of truth:
Sweet hours of our childhood
In fancy wo sec,
NV dear little rose bud,
While we gaze upon thee.
Thy petals unfolding
Recall to our mind;
Many fond rccollcctions
Of place and of time;
When VIC builded air castles
So wide and SO tall,
We thought it impossible
They ever could fall:
We talked of the future,
Of this and Of that,
And sometimes, little rose bud,
You was found in our hat
Where we stuck you SO slyly,
Just under the band,
Thinking the while
Of some dear little hand
mat would pluck tnce US siyly
From thy place of seclusion,
And place thee, perhaps,
I'm her own precious bosom.
How our pulse would 60 bounding,
And our heart pit-a-pat,
When we saw her extracting
The bud from our hat.
But when she would place it,
With fingers so white,
In her hair, or her bosom,
And pin it down tight,
We felt, o, so funny
l cannot tell how
But VIC love thee, dear rose bud,
We love thee, l vow.

CHICKENS by TIE WHoLEsALE.-One OF our
Euclid street friends has fitted up an apart
ment on his premises in which to hatch
chickens through artificial heat The first ex-
pertinent consisted in arranging fifty eggs
upon shelves in the room, covering them with
cotton, and raising the temperature of the
room, with a gas heater, TO los degrees
This was done three weeks ago, and yester-
day the chickens commenced. to break the
shell and to peep in the conventional manner
common to all wellregulated chickens.
Our friend hit upon los degrees, as the
proper temperature, by placing a thermome
ter under setting hen, which raised the mer
curry to that point He is much pleased with
his success, and thinks Of continuing opera

Freezing Mixtures.

Freezing mixtures are artificial means of
producing cold by dissolving certain salts in
water. The assistance of ice or snow produc-
es greater cold and saves trouble and expense;
but as artificial cold is chiefly required when
these are not to be had, means arc then re-
sorted to which render them unnecessary

By cooling the vessels and mixtures previ-
Gus to commencing, an extreme degree of
cold may be produced, even to 1872 degrees
below the freezing point of water. The cold
est mixtures are produced by other liquids
than water, but, for retailing, the powered and
mixed salts are prepared so as to require
water only. Besides the above, there are
other proportions suited for the purpose when
made up they are sold as freezing powders.

VI THOUGHTS OF HEAVEN.

How sweet tho thought, when life is past,
And we are landed safe above
To bask in bliss, while eternity shall last,
In heavens pure and perfect love.
There no more toll, nor pain, nor death
Will ever dare to enter in;
But infinite joys shall crown and bless
All who are puro and free from sin.
Them wen not murmur nor complain,
However hard our lot on earth;
We'll travel on, from sin refrain,
Till God shall call us home through death.
We often wonder if in heaven
Wen meet all those we loved on earth;
Would it not give pain if some dear ono
Should be banishcd to eternal death?
We do not know, God in His pure wisdom
q viii make our happiness complete
If we but trust to His decision,
To who shall worship at His feet.
We hope to meet our parents there,
They taught as how to pray; .-.
They taught us not in fashions loro,
But said "Be carcful what you say"

The Washington Trials.

We are inclined to think the newspaper
press have got an elephant on hand, in the
long-spread-out and Rne-drawn report OF the
testimony in the assassination trials at Wash
ington. At first we were informed the trials
were to be secret, and that none of the testi-
mony would be given to the public till the
whole was in, and authority given by the Gov
ernment; but this purpose seems to have
been changed-if Indeed it was ever enter
tained-and on Sunday evening the food gates
were opened at Washington, and such cur
rent as poured through we have never before
known. Our compositors worked till the
gray of the morning, but still it came, and
when we went to press yesterday morning
not less than thirty pages of manuscript had
accumulated which was impossible to dispose
of.
The Boston papers appear to have with
stood the tide but little better than ne did.
The Advertiser and Post contained about the
same amount as the Press, and cut short of,
saying, "here we are obliged to stop" The
Journal waded through by emitting all the
questions, and publishing only the answers
many of them perfectly unmeaning except
when considered in connection with the ques-
tions which drew them out.
In the continuation of the report-which will
bs found on the first page-we have condensed
SO far as we could without marrlng the con-
tinuity of the account or suppressing facts.
The omitted portions are chiefly the repeti-
tons, aad those things which might be regard
ed as mere surplusage. How we shall con-
tinue the report will depend upon our ability
and not our will.
