A'"FrERY SgRPESr."-A young lady at East
Windsor, Mass, was pretty considerably scared
the other day. She was brushing the dust
from the hearth of the cooking stove, in which
was full fire, when suddenly live and par
icularly lively snake i,suen from hole in the
stove door, full into her face. A succession Of
screams brought the feminine portion of the
household to the kitchen aud the mother dis
patched the "sarpent," which was charging
about the room and writing with pain, 1t
seems that a basket of chips had been scraped
up the previous evening, aud a moment before
the ''scare," the mother had empued part of
them into the stove, and with them went the

GEH, READ's HISTORICAL ADDREss.-lt will,
doubtless, be remembered by many of our
leaders that at the LIST Annual Meeting of the
Historical Society OF Delaware, an address was
delivered by General John NJ. Read, Jr., of AL
bany, New ork, the manuscript of which was
afterwards requested by the Society for publ
cation. The author has kindly sent us copy
otthe printed work. The long delay that has
thns ensued since the action OF the Society,
has been caused by additional researches into
the various sources of information concerning
the subject of his valuable discourse. The
title Of the address Is, A Historical Inquiry con-
ssrnins Henry Hudson, his friends, rsiatives and
sSly Lte, his connection With the Muscouy COM
sny and discovery Of Delaware Bay.
There has always been SO much of obscurity
and controversy connected with the life of this
eminent navi g ator, and even with the proper
spelling of his name, that the task of General
Read was by no means an easy or gracious
one. To establish the theories which he main.
tAins he has been led TO the closest study OF al
most innumerable volumes and documents, and
been obliged in many instances to differ very

GEN BEAuREGARD IN EURoPE.-The London
correspondent of the New York Times writes:
General Bureaugard was well received in
England, in private circles, but do not learn
that he had the slightest official recognition,
But in France it was far other wise. He was
sent for by the Emperor, with whom he had a
long and confidential interview at the Tuiler.
les, after which he conversed with two Minis
ers OF State, N. Rouher and N, Drouyn de Lhuys
and taken In a State carriage to the Legislative
Chambers. II is reported also that he has had
aud declined the ofter to take the command OF
the Roumanian army. Ths Emperor Napoleon
in these polite attentions to the Confederate
general, is carrying out the principal neutral
ity to the end, and makes TO distinction be-
tween Federal and Confederate, except, per-
haps, to treat the latter as the cOGquered par
ty, with a more delicate consideration. To the
Emperor, General Beauregard is only brave
and accomplished soldier, OF the merits of
whose cause he will not pretend TO judge. In
the same way the Enperors of France aud Rus
STA sent congratulations TO the Ausrians when
they beat the Italians, and to the Prussians
when they beat the Anstrilas.
