when we remember when and where it was
written. Read it:

CERTAIN CURE FOR THE BITE OF
SNAKE.-Upon this subject correspon-
dent of the Mississippi Clarion relates
the following interesting fact
Some twenty to twenty five years ago,
an Indian, known as :" Indian Jim,"
had rattle-snake of the largest class in
box, which he was in the habit of car
rying into Clinton once or twice week
for the amusement of such as were fond
of shows, and this snake he would allow
to bite his hand, or wrist, or arm for
gallon of whisky. Jim never left with
out his gallon, minus pint, which he
invariably drank so soon as he had en-
gagged himself from the snake and secu-
red him in the box work ofseveral
minutes sometimes, as it not unfrequen-
thy happened that it required Jim's 9TH
err hand to detach the fangs of the rep
tile from his flesh. There was no mis-
take about the fangs, AS the blood would
follow their removal. The snake secur-
ed and the pint of wiskey drank, Jim
take up the box and jug and retire with
chuckle and STOOL Ingun' ha This
statement will doubtless be corroberat-
ed by any one living in or near Clinton,
as those who are old enough must have
witnessed what describe, and those
not old enough must have heard the
statement too often to disbelieve it.
I have had several negroes bitten by
both rattle and moccasin, (the latter is
probably the most venomous,) without
evil results, they having been inebriat-
ed as soon as convenient after the acct
dent but I think it unnecessary to
give particulars, as the case of the Indi-
an is deemed sufficient.

There is happy place, tits said,
Where zephyr comes at even,
Slow, calm, and with angelic tread,
Breathes sweetly, as of heaven;
An elfin vale, where evergreen
Doth greet the blushing morning,
And ev'ry charming flower is seen
The pearly brooks adorning;
For sheltered by the Northern hills,
Where chaunt thousand ripping rllls,
The yernal Sun is ever kind,
And gently lisps the balmy wind.
When first the light is on the peak,
When first the Sun is beaming,
They say a hundred maidens seek
The paths where dews are cleaning;
And ev'ry maiden is SO fair,
SO peerless and so gentle,
That some, incredulous, declare
The whole vision mental.
But then, tits said, they may be seen,
The fairest flowers upon the green,
When Darkness bids mild adieu,
And young light stoops to kiss the dew.
And then there is man of age,
Whose hand is e'er directing,
Who watches DER them like sage,
Their ev'ry step protecting;
For in his care they have been placed,
(Such is, indeed, the story,)
Since wisdom is the better traced,
By heads becoming hoary.
And all the SWANS are left to sigh,
Upon the neighb'ring submits, high,
With saddened looks, like Moses, sat
Lamenting on this Ararat.
With him who keeps this fairy vale,
Entreaty's unavailing,
He listens not TO Cupid's tale,
But sends him of, bewailing.
O, cruel man! to wound the child,
So gentle in his pleading;
To turn him off with anguish wild,
And bosom sadly bleeding
Well, be it so-the day will come,
Each maid will reach her happy home,
And then the youths will journey there,
To claim the fairest of the fair.

FR1GHTFUL LEAP OF AN OLD MAN
Between IL and-1 o'clock on Friday an
aged man was seen to leap from the
Market street bridge into the Schuykill
river, distance of some thirty-fve feet.
The wind blew up his coat, and by the
time he reached the surface of the wa
ter his coat was spread out as though it
were an inflated bladder. The head
went down at one time, and the hands
ofthe man were padding in the water as
though to sustain himself, and his feet
were visible at the same time. Some
of the men who work at the gas depart
ment SWAN out with planks, but tug
succeeded in reaching the drowning
man and getting him on board, shortly
alter which he died. His under cloth
ing is marked, " A. Frazier" and he is
supposed to be between seventy and
eighty years of age. The coroner took
charge of the body.-Phil Inquirer.
