RArr1rssAxE CHARMING TURKEYS

RATTLEsNAKE CHARMING TURKEYs.-A
very strange and novel occurrence, says the
Bradford (Pa.) Reporter, took place on the
Sinnemahoning, near Wistar. Pennsylvania,
short time since, yet its truthfulness can
be vouched for by r. w. McClelland and
others in that vicinity. The attention of
resident of that place was attracted to yard
in the rear of the house, where flock of tur-
keys were congregated, uttering wild and
discordant cries, and futtering in the great
est CONSERVATION. On approaching he OBJ
served II huge rattlesnake, coiled up, in the
act of charming lordly gobblei, who was
gliding swiftly in circuit with eyes riveted
on the CLASSY orbits of his captor, and grad
ually approaching his venomous jaws. Mr..
McClelland quickly dispatched the bold in
truder, and the turkey was set at liberty
but, strange to record. with its eyes so SIN
gularly transfxed that it was unable to move
ahead in a direct line. At dusk the same
day snake equally as large as the one des-
troyed. came into the same mans door-yard,
and began calling for its absent mate by rat
tling loudly. He was dispatched. and when
measured was found to be four feet in length
with tail studded with thirteen rattles.

that he would refrain from informing his pa

his head down upon the pillow. not to die

will fall from his mothers eyes at his long
absence, and home will grow dark and

FLuNKEYIsM.-Her saffron -colored majesty,
the queen dowdyger of the Sandwich Islands
is on her way to San Francisco, and the ar
istocratic snobs of that city ere quarreling TO
see who shall take her carpet bag when she
arrives. Even the republican Flag has caught
the infection, and discourses thus:
Her majesty was recently the recipient of
distinguished honors in New York. The
nobility, wealth, influence and position of
that city crowded around to do her obeisance.
Her visit to Trinity Church. etc., has passed
into history, and there is no doubt she will
find as enthusiastic reception at the hands
of the people of San Francisdo.
Pretty good. The funkey snobs of San
Francisco should not allow themselves to be
outdone by the mobility of New York; but
vie with them in rendering homage to her
kinky headed majesty. "Her visit to Trim
ity Church has passed into history!" Won
derful What a remarkable condescension
A real, live, queen stoops to enter Trinity
church! Happy event! Glorious day!
Hereafter it should be celebrated with all the
honors due to such an august occasion. By
all means prevail on her sandwich majesty
to visit some church in San Francisco-for
"history's' sake.

The Johnsonites. says the Flag have been
making good deal of political capital out of
the presence of Gen. Grant at the White
House, when the Committee from the Phila-
delphia Convention waited on the President
and presented him with an official copy of
the proceedings of that body. Itnow comes
to light that General Grant was not present
at the time of his own accord, but through
the trick of Messrs. johnson and Seward,
and their political tools. 1t seems that Just
before the appointed time came for the inter-
view,- the President dispatched one of his
private secretaries to General Grant, saying
he desired to see him on important business.
fcourse the General fastened over to the
White House, and when he reached it the
Philadelphia Convention was ordered by
Marshal Gooding to assemble in the East
Room. The President was then awaiting
the arrangements of the Committee. and it
was in this manner that General Grant was
entrapped into a supposed Endorsement of
the swindling party.

renegade pirate who pilote1 the Shenandoah

fleet. and enabled that piratical craft to des
troy large number of vessels, arrived in
San Francisco recently. He was soon rec
ognized. however. and was obliged to secrete
himself to escape the vengeance of the men
he had so foully injured. Finding San Fran
cisco was likely to become too hot for him,
he shipped as sailor on the Sea Serpent
but the day that vessel was to clear, the
wharves were crowded with sailors who were
on the watch for him. and he did not make
his appearance. 1t is rumored that he was
put aboard the Sea Serpent after she had
passed the heads. He ought to have been

CALAvERAS CHRONICLE.
IokELUMNE HILL:
SATURDAY,: f: SEPTEMBER %, 1866.

War clouds are again gathering in Europe.
Austria does not seem willing to accept the
result of Sadowa as final, and the imperous
manner of Prussia has provoked spirit of
resistance to her demands in some of the les
ser States. The seeming acquiescence of the
Emperor Napoleon in the ambitious policy
which actuates Bismarck, and which in real
ity makes Prussia Germany. is hypocritical.
and he is only waiting favorable opportu-
nifty to throw aside his mask and endeavor to
achieve his darling object of extending his
empire to the Rhine. Russia is also evincing
jealous spirit at the increasing Importance
of Prussia, and will not let favorable op-
portunity to humble her pass unimproved.
There is no doubt that Austria has received
encouragement from both these powers, and
should war again be inaugurated on the con-
tinent, France and Russia will undoubtedly
take hand. 1t would be queer finale, if
at the conclusion of the coming struggle Italy
should find herself despoiled of venetia, and
Prussia. instead of Austria, stripped of her
possessions. and excluded from the Germanic
Confederation.

ANOTHER WAR CLOUD R1s1so.-From tn,

ANOTHER WAR-CLoUD RIsTNG.-From the
sullen aspect Of Austria. when menacingly
addressed by Prussia. concerning Italian af-
fairs. it may be inferred that the former has
some assurance of assistance from another
formidable power in event of renewed con-
fict. In that case the awful carnage of the
late len Days War will have been only a
sanguinary introduction to still more aw-
full drama. The superior state-craft of Bis
marck, as. contrasted with that of Napoleon,
may yet reverse the great victory of Sadowa.
The Nephew of his Uncle is obviously out Of

es we ever listened to. 1t was an impromP-
tn effort, Mr.. Dudley having stolen sway
from the Court Room in order to be present,
but every sentence was replete with the most
glowing patriotic sentiments, and was receiv-
ed with rapturous applause. Mr.. Dudley
is one of the best of-hand speakers IN the
State. and he fairly surpassed himself on this
occasion. At the conclusion of his remarks.
cheers were proposed and given for Chilli,
Mexico and the United States ano the band
struck up the Star Spangled Banner
The exercises at the stand being concluded
the societies were escorted to their quarters
and dismissed. At sunset q national salute
was fired, accompanied with music, which
completed the programme for the day. The
entire proceedings were admirably conducted,
and reflect much credit upon those who had
the management of the affair in their hands.
Nothing occurred to mar the harmony or in
terrupt the ceremonies, but all passed of
pleasantly, and the celebration of the 56th
anniversary of Chillan independence will
long be remembered as one of most success
full ever held in Mokelumne Hill.
The ball in the evening was magnificent
affair. The hall was exquisitely decorated
with the silken banners of the different soci-
cites, beautiful pictures, etc., and when brill
iantly illuminated presented very tasty and
inviting appearance. Nearly all of the ladies
and gentlemen who visited our town for the
purpose of witnessing the celebration. re-
manned and attended the ball. About half
past eight, the band took their position in
the gallery and the festivities commenced.
There were just enough present to fill the
hall, without being crowded, and all seemed
to enjoy themselves first-rate. The utmost
decorum was observed, everything passed off
smoothly and quietly. 1t was the best con-
Quoted and most select party ever given in
Mokelumne Hill. The music was really su-
perb. the calling was excellent, the dancers,
the female portion of them-but why attempt to
describe the sylph-hke forms. the dazzling
beauty. and the charming grace of the ladies
the effort would be useless. Twas there
"The bright and youthful dancers met.
With lau. hing lips and wingedf eet;
And goden locks came flashing by,
Like sudden sunshine thro' the sky,
And fairy for ms. now here, now there,
Hover'd like children of tie air.''
At twelve o'clock the guests descended to
the dining room and partook of bountiful
repast, after which they returned to the ball
room, dancing was speedily renewed and
kept up until
The M rning lark, the messenger of day,
Saluted with her song the morning grey"
Too much praise cannot be awarded to the
managers, Messrs. Riddell, Severance and
Disbrow, for the efficient manner in which
they performed the duties devolving upon
them. Determined that the ball should be
success if their efforts could make it so, they
spared no endeavors to render it as agreeable
as possible to those present, and to their eff
forts, and the spirited conduct of some of the
ladies. the happy termination of the festivities
of the 18th of September is mainly attributa-
