a Horrible PlaythIng-An Adder Petted
by Child.


by Child.
We have often read of children and
venomous snakes playing together, but
we never had case come under our i'm.
mediate observation until yesterday. In
the afternoon the two little daughters Of
Mr.. G. G. Lieben, aged three and five
years respectively, were engaged in
playing in the front yard of their home
on Iowa street, when the oldest child ran
into the house and told the servant girl
to run out and see to her sister, who was
playing with big snake. The servant
thought nothing of if, and continued her
work. In fewminutes the child again
besought her to 20 right out, for
the snake was Kissing at sissy" The
girl went out and was struck speechless
and made to grow pale On the brick
walk, near the front gate, sat the little
child, laughing at and patting a huge
snake on the head The snake was
coiIed up like a spiral spring, and with
elevated head and protruding fangs, was
allowing the child to play with it 1t
was a blackish monster, streaked and
spotted with green. When the child
would cease patting 1t, the snake would
strike at the little ones hand, and stiff
fen as if preparing to jump at the child.
Then the little one would tap its head,
and it would lower its head and remain
passive. The servant stood for mo-
ment unable to say a word. At last
she shrieked for Mrs. Lieben, who came
out She also was seized with terror,
but waited only second before She
seized her child and bore it away. A
lady who resides next door, alarmed by
the servant girls cries, had now arrived
upon the scene. Before the snake un
coiled itself she threw a brick at it,
which struck upon its head and stunned
it. A man who was passing by then
stepped in and killed the snake. 1t
measured thirty eight inches in length,
was Of the kind known as the house
adder, the bite OF sting Of which is said
TO be terribly poisonous. The child had
a narrow escape from an awful DEATH
DUBUQUE Times.

barouet was duly sought for, and after an
expenditure Of $500 in advertisements it

Melancholy Condition of Galveston, Texas.

The following is an extract from a pri-
vate letter written from Galveston,
Texas, September IL, 1867, by General
j. Warren Bell, special agent, Treasury
Department:
AS to this city, there is no language
adequate to describe the fearful reality.
September is destined to prove its eX-
treme results. Yesterday, and the day
previous, each thirty.two deaths from
yellow fever, and to day, with the wind
from the South, which to the afflicted
brings not healing, but death on its
wings, large number of the thousands
who are sick must die. 1t is said that
over five thousand persons have had the
disease, and that there is no day now
when there is not at least fifteen hundred
sick. The city is really a place of
sickness and death. There is nothing
more appalling than the condition
of things here. The groans of
the dying on the battlefield are
not more agonizing than the moan
ings OF the sick and dying here. 1t is
simply impossible to give correct idea,
and equally impossible for the medical
and charitable associations to render
anything like the necessary attention to
the sick and dying. The Howard Asso-
Citations, the Charity Hospitals, the Ma
sons and Odd Fellows have exhausted
treasure, time, aud energy, and now are
almost at their wits end. Aid can.
not come with requisite speed-sympa-
thy is useless unaccompanied with ma
terial aid Nursing and attention are
far more necessary and fraught with
more beneficial results than even the
physicians skill. Remittances to the
Howard Association will be received
with weeping and heartfelt gratitude
by the suffering and their friends. Some
thing must be done Immediately for re-
lief. Stores have been closed for weeks
with none to furnish the needy Many
who have means have offered all for
nursing and attention, while many who
have nothing die for want of attention.
A new cemetery, just opened, is already
crowded, and the city Of Galveston is
doomed, with no hope for actual relief
until cold weather, which in this latitude
is in November or later. May the kindly
disposed, who have abundance, give of
their means 1t will be casting bread
upon the waters, and after may days
they NAV find il.

The School Fund.

We had call yesterday from Hon. T..
B. McElwee, of the late State Senate.
Mr. McElwee has just retured from
Memphis, where he has been for some
time, by direction of Gov. Brownlow, to
look after the lost school fund. He in
forms us that he has instituted legal
proceedings upon the bond given By the
bank when the deposits we're made. He
thinks be will be able to recover about
100000, leaving the State a loser to
about the same amount We hope he
may succeed in doing this well. He says
the State revenue deposited in the bank
will all be recovered. -Knoroiue Free
