SyAKIsH.-On Wednesday, Aug. 7th,
Henry Yale, of HELEN, in this county,
while out on Boon's mountain after
huckleberries with two small broth
ers, came upon den OF rattlesnakes
and found themselves surrounded by
them. The boys were on a rock.
Before they could get away they killed
fifty.seven snakes and piled thom
on the rock. All the snakes were fe-
males, containing from eight to twelve
young snakes inside, making a loss Of
snakes of from five TO six hundred.
Tho BOYS say they killed about half
thesnalzes. The balance took refuge
under the rocks.-Ek Advocate.
Last week a party of men who
were estimating the quantity of tim
ber on tract of land in the Allegheny
mountains, killed thirty-fye rattle
snakes, of large size, within two days.
In one place sixteen wero killed to-
gethcr.
This species of snake seems to be
gregarious. Some time ago party
Of surveyors, among whom were w.
p. Mitchell and ID. Rockefeller, killed
twenty-five in one place. We former.
ly regarded these as mere "snake"
stories, but are now convinced Of their
truth. -Bellefonte WdtchmdD.

The STATE RoBBERs.-Wo call the
attention of our readers to an article
in this issue, taken from the Reading

adopted by Geary & Co of robbing

State Treasury, and loyal shoddyitos

QuAoK HUMBUGs.-We notice that
DIR. jackson, one of the celebrated
physicians" whose sands of life have
not quite "run out" has discovered,
not a cure for the ills of life, but that
the people of Clear6eld county have
still a few stamps left, which he
wishes to possess for his own private
use. We observe by his handbills
that he intends making raid upon
us during this and next week, TO
learn how many fools are still alive
in this county whom he can plunder
for the third or fourth time. This
man Jackson is the left bower to the
celebrated uriscopian individual who
eloped from this vicinity a short time
ago. These public plunderers, we
arc aware, cannot be indicted for
highway robbery; but when they
make a raid through ncighborhood,
they accomplish just what highway
man does: take your money without
an equivalent. If they were good
physicians they need not adopt the
circus plan of practicing their proies-
sion, because they could get employ
ment at their homes. These hum
bugs are annually as expensive to
our people as the horse thieves )
and as long as rise people patronize
them, they will infost and piunder the
community.

A NEW DoDGE IN HoEsE--HIEvING.
A new system of tactics in stealing
horses has been detected. A man
goes at night to a pasture in which
horses are kept, and let's down the
bars or opens the gate. Of course the
horses wander out and away. They
are sort of picked up at convenient
distances by the parties in the "ring,"
and keptin out-ofthe-way places until
they are given up as lost, and all ex-
citement has died away. Then they
are either sold to horse-dcalers, or else
taken to distant places and sold.
