Snake Bites.

The Rev Edward Fontain gives the
readers ofthe Mississippian, through
its weekly of the Both ult.. certain
cure for snake bites" That his cure is
effective we have no right to question;
but is it not remarkable that the Rev
erend gentleman, with his extensive
experience of frontier life, should
have at this day, to resort to a drug
store for an antidote to the bite of q
rapid reptile? Let me assure your
readers. and the readers of such other
papers as may think it worth while to
notice this article, that they only have
to get drunk, within an hour or two
perhaps, after being bitten by 4 rattle
snake, to be perfectly safe against the
i'll effects from that bite. | say an
hour or two, sas l have known such
time to elapse before the remedy
(whiskey,) could be obtained, but /
still advise the loss of as little time as
possible Some twenty to twenty to
twenty five years ago, an Indian, known
"a Indian jim" had a rattle snake of
the largest class in a box which he
was in the habit Of carrying into Gin
ton once or twice a week for the amuse-
ment of such as were fond of shows,
and this snake lie would allow to bite
his hand or wrist or arm for a gallon
of whisky Jim never left without his
gallon. minus a pint, which he inva-
riablv drank so soon as he had Olsen
gagged himselffrom the snake and Sc
cured him in the box; 4 work of sey-
eral minutes sometimes, as it not un-
frequently happened that it required
Jim's other hand TO detach the fangs
of the reptile from his flesh There
was no mistake about the fangs, as the
blood would follow their removal
The snake secured and the pint of
whiskey drank, Jim would take up the
box and jug and retire with a chuckle
and fool Ingun" ha, This statement
will doubtless be corroborated by any
one living in Ornear Clinton, as those
who are old enough must have wit
messed what I describe, and those not
old enough must have heard the state
mrnt too often to disbelieve it.
| have had several negroes bitten
+ by both rattle and mOccasin, (the lat
ter is probably the most venomOus,
without evil results, they having been
inebriated as soon as convenient after
the accident: but | think it unneces-
sary to give particulars, as the case of
I the Indian is deemed sufficient.

INCIDENT AT THE WHITE HOUSE,
We find the following relation of an
incident that occurred at a Presiden-
tial reception, published in the Cres-
cent of the 18th:
After arriving in the ante room OF
the Presidential mansion, we had to
wait until notified to enter the Pres
ident's room. During the interval my
friend and myself noticed a dapper,
little, sandy -compleXioned. intellectu-
al-looking, nervous man, pacing back
wards and forwards-ever and anon
pausing and making notes on a bun
die of Recommendation, passing his
hands through his hair, he would re
sumo his march. My friend wills
pered That gentleman seems pecu-
liarly nervous; something of deep
purpOrt rests upon his mind just
at this moment the usher threw open
the door, and weentered. The Pres
ident, after blandly receiving and
passing the compliments of the morn
ing, said:
Gentlemen, excuse me. two ladies
are approaching" We stood back.
An elderly lady approached, accom-
panied by one much younger, who,
from appearance, might be her daugh-
ter, with an infant in her arms. The
nervous gentleman approached the
President, and said
Mr. President, this lady's husband
is under sentence for n crime, which /
have here the documents to show was
not so fragrant as was testified to, and
that one of the witnesses has periured
himself"
Stop, sir" said Mr.. johnson. Il
received those documents or their
contents, two days ago, and have
carefully examined them. This lady
husband is pardoned"
The lady. so overcome with the
feeling which welled up from her
heart, that she was incapable of utter
ance, was likely to faint.
John, said the President "seat
that lady" She took seat and at
tempted to speak her thanks, but her
emotions were too overpowering for
utterance, and the President cut her
short by saying
mo thanks, madam-nn thanks /:
have but done my duty; be com
posed and retire, for / have other
duties quite as urgent and important
as yours"

Generosity of Feeling.


Sometime since, Gen Stoneman, the
Federal Commander at Memphis,
bestowed charity upon a penniless
Confederate soldier who was endeav-
oring to return to his home. 1t was
unoste1tatiously done-the ex-soldier
did not know the charitable donor till
informed by bystander who he was.
The Southern newspapers published it
as an act Of generosity from one per
son to another who had formerly been
enemies-and instanced it as an evil
dence Of the kindly feeling which ami
mated the Federal officer 1t was re-
served for a contemporary in the east
ern part of the State to discover in this
charitable act but a restitution Of
portion Of the property of which the
officer had robbed the Southern peo-
Pile Gen StOneman is an old army
officer, possessed of the principles Of
gentleman, whose fortunes have re-
ceived no increase for any dishonest
practices. So far as we can learn, he
conducted war upon civilized princi-
plies. and his voice and influence were
always against pillage and plumber We
understand so far as he is concerned
himself he has shown the people of his
military district all the kindness con
sistent with his duties and orders. We
ought not to forget that military Off
Gals are compelled to execute or
derS and perform duties enjoined by
higher authority which pro
fcssional etiquette does not permit
to he published. We should exercise
some little charity of feeling towards
our immediate military rulers. 1t is
a mistaken notion TO require and ask
Of them the manifestation of a spirit
which we are not willing to cultivate
among ourselves For the acts Of
Expectations committed upon, and
the insults offered to our people we
have rs hearty a contempt and have
denounced As severely as any other
paper And the authors Of all these,
when we have known their names. we
! have held up to public scorn and con
tempt. But our sense of justice has
not been so blinded as to connect
with these things epery officer who
held a command in the Federal army.
1t would be acknowledging the. ex-
istence in this country Of a selfish, I'M
generous spirit which is not charac-
( teristic of our people We think our
/ contemporary will, after little rehec-
( ton, have the magnanimitv to speak
/ Justly of one who endeavored to act
as humanely as he could turing the
war, and who, since its close, has
demonstrated that it left him with a
heart to feel for private suffering and
a hand to bestow private charity. This
wholesale denunciation can be produc-
/ tive ofno good result, and is not a prop
er indication ofthe spirit which should
now pevade the press in every por-
/ ton of our land
