near West Union, Iowa, of small snake in
a hens egg, which she had broken open!
Messrs. Robinson 4 Waterbury, of West
Union, write to Dr. Bartlett of this CITY. ard
send him the snake. In their note thew
say:
At first II was seven inches long, and
about as large around as 9 pipe>stem, of some
what brownish color. Mrs. Burt, the lady
who found the snake, pnt it at 6rst into water
and after standing some FIVE days, then into
IS per cent alcohol. The consequence is
1t had shrunken up badly and lost its identity.
At first its eyes and mouth could be seen
quite plainly. The egg was = common hen $
egg; the contents were all natural and good,
with this exception. It lay cooled up in the
white of the egg. The statement which went
the rounds of the papers that Miss. Robinson
was the finder is incorrect; it was hea sister,
Mrs c. R. Burt" This serpentile specimen

CIRCULATING THE WRoNa PAPER-At a
recent temperance meeting an amusing Incl
dent took place. A strong exhorlation had
been delivered by a speaker present; and
the President requested the Secretary to
pass around the pledge for signatures, and
taking from his pocket what lie supposed
was the document, he without looking at it,
gave tito the Secretary for that purpose,
A large number of names were enrolled of
both ladies and gentlemen present, and the
document returned. 1t was observed by the
Secretary that while passing round the
paper, that considerable titterng prevailed
among the ladies, who took the precaution
to read the contents Of the paper, whilst
those who did not read it, and desired TO
sign did So After going through the con
grcgation the Secretary, on his way back,
looked at the paper to see what was the
cause Of amusement, when il was revealed
TO him that, instead of the temperance
pledge, lie had passed around and received
signatures ID II document setting forth the

GRIMES AND CASUALTIES.

Mrs Jesse Wilson, of Mt. Sterling, Ohio,
met with horrible death last Wednesday,
under the following circumstances:-She had
been to market, and returning on horseback
INDUCED in the luxury of pipe, which she
returned to her pocket with fire accidentally
remaining therein. The horse, burned by
the fire, kept whirling round, in his action,
the atmosphere soon famed this into a blaze
and endeavoring TO leap from her horse, her
clothes caught on the horn of the saddle and
her foot remained fastened in the stirrnp
The endeaYnrs to escape therefrOm added
fuel to the flame. A neighbor, seeing the
fire, hastened TO her assistance, tore the
burning garments off, severely burning his
hands in the operation. 1t was TOO late
though for after lingering in agony until
evening, Mrs. Wilson was relieved by death.
An old man named Carruthers, was killed
by the Expess train south from Canandagua,
New York, ON Wednesday last. He saw the
train approaching and deliberately sat down
on the track and awaited certain death. His
body was crushed into mn unrecognized mass
of flesh and bones.

named for this position have had their quail

REFORM MEETING IN LoNDoN-pkRU. OF
THE DERBY CABINET-PRussiA GAINS ALL.
HER PoINTs-PEAcE CONSIDERED GER.
TAIN.
New YoRK, Aug 1.-The Herald has the
following despatch:
LONDON, July 3O.-A great Reform meet.
ing was held to-day in the city Thirty
thousand people were present, Resolutions
were adopted declaring that they had no
faith in the Government. Petitions were
read, which are to he presented TO Iarlia
ment, demanding an inquiry into the con
duct of Sir Richard Mayne, Chief of Police
The procession was immense, and several
bands of music were in attendance. Every
thing passed off quietly.
The New York Tribune has a special, which

sufficient prominence 10 secure the endorse
ment of the Senate (wlaose confirmation was
necessary preliminary to my removall, and
at the Same time base enough to sacrifice his
principles for office, that have remained to
the present time
may not agree with some of the gentle
men who have honored me by their presence
at the meeting at tho Board of Trades
rooms, on the subject of rotation in office
Whilst freely admit that experience is in
many cases necessary to an intelligent adj
minisiration of official duty, still hold that
change is characteristic of our republican
form OF government, and, u may be, one Of
its evils; and am not disposed to claim for
myself an exception 10 the practical applica-
lion of this democratic principle.
Governments arc based upon the theory
of rotation in Office, or upon that of life ten
urG. Ours, being a democratic Republic, in
which the will OF the people is supposed to
he reflected by their acts at the polls-when
therefore they change the appointing power
in any department of the Government, hold
it to be an expression of their will that a &C.
neral change should take place in all offices
in that department, except where such
changes would bo manilestly detrimental to
the public good
Let us apply this principle to the present
policy OF President Johnson to remove all
officers who do not agree with him on the
question of rcconstruction-a question pure
ly legislative in its character. Did the peO-
pie signify desire for change by electDg
him 10 the Presidential chair? Did they
constitute him the appointing powerY or
did they not rather express themselves OPP
posed to change by re-elecing our lamented
Lincoln?
Thanking you, gentlemen, for your kind
interposiiion in my behalf, | have only to
say that ! shall continue in Office so long as
can do so, in disregard of the arbitrary will
which now demands my removal against the
wishes OF the Senate of the United States,
whose prefogative is wantonly invaded, and
the mercantile community whose interests !
have always endeavored to promote.
