si,or Romance in Washington.

From the Constitutional Union, Auguet L. ]
A few nights since au army officer
was standing in front of one of our city
hotels, deeply meditating on something
only known TO himself, when lie was
addressed by q colored individual, who
inquired If that was Captain c. Upon
the captains answering in the affirma-
tive he was informed by the gentleman
of color that there was person in the
shape of female, who wished to see
him, at the corner above.
Now, we will say here that the brave
captain had been struck somewhere in
the region of the heart with an arrow
from Cupid's bow, and that he had
fixed that very night to ask that same
question which so many have asked,
viz, "Will you have mei' but still he
was ready for some romance if it came
in the way He accordingly followed
the dark individual to the corner above.
and there's saw q lady deeply yelled, so
that not aparticle Of her face could be
seen. -
When he came up she asked him to
follow her, and led the way to public
square, where she Informed him that Il
he would be willing to be blindfolded
and led some little distance he would
meet the very lady he intended to pro.

ance OF snakes in all parts of the coun-
try this year. For several weeks past
we have hardly taken up rural ex-
change without finding mention of the
killing of more reptiles, or an account
of persons being bitten by them. We
have already an account of q hunts
mans fight with "blue racers" on South
Mountain, Maryland; of an attack on
mother and child iniMarion County,
Ohio, by snakes of the same species; of
the death of q child not far from Terre
Haute by snake bite; of the killing OF
large rattlesnake in West Springfield,
Mass, and other instances of the same
kind. A few days ago child, while
picking berries near Cleveland, Mimi,
was bitten by a rattlesnake, and died
soon afterwards; Mrs. Judge Corwin,
of Urbana, while at a picnic the other
day was bitten by ratlesnako, but re-
covered. On Wednesday of last week
rattlesnake measuring four feet and a
balf in length was killed at Pithole, Pa.
The reptiles are said to be numerous in
that vicinity during the present sum-
mer. The Lanark (Ill) BdnHT says
that two snakes were killed at that
place recently by railroad hands. One
was rattlesnakc, with eighteen
rattles; the other n blue racer, five
feet long and the thickness of a mans
wrist. ..
Near Lacon, H., Mr.. Samuel Biciel
saw rattlesnake four feet long coiled
up in the grass, which he sought to cap
ture by catching him by the tail, but in
the effort got severely bitten in the.
hand. A neighbor fortunately had a
supply of whisky, of which he drank
three quarts before feeling its effect. His
entire arm was badly swollen, and turn
ed black to the shoulder, but no further
i'll effects followed. -
The Concord (N. H. Statesman says
that a snake, fonr and half feet in
length and with eleven rattles, was
killed on the 23d ult., in AllenstOwn,
n. III. A black snake, six: feet in length,
as we learn from the Lafayette (Ind.)
Journal, was killed in the south part of
that city on Saturday. We learn, also,
that some of the residents of the out
skirts of Loveland, twenty-three miles
from Cincinnati, on the Little Miami
Railroad, have been greatly pestered
with black snakes during the present
summer

A Coon JoKE.-A member of the
press lays claim to o widow. He fire.
~quently refers to her as g~oodlooking,
pleasing in conversation and entertain
ing generally. Not long since he called
to see her, promising himself a nice
chit-chat for an hour or two. She met
him pleasing enough-glad to.see him.
"Oh," said the widow, 81 Am very busy
| have so much to do; you will excuse
me for a little while" "Certainly,"
said he. Could he have said less ?
.But," said the lady, "now think Of
il, Mr.. -, suppose you help me peel
some peaches" "Yes," he %responed,
~ would be much pleased to do So"
The fact is, the visitor thought that
while the peeling process was going on
be would be near the widow, and the
conversation could 60 on; besides he
would be exhibiting some of his useful
ness. Not exactly SO, for the widow
soon discovered that something was to
be done in the parlor, and then she
would the visitor and they would have
q talk agreeably together. When she
left, the would-be beau bent his ener-
gies to the work, linking, in the mean
time that the homework would be done
as o as the peaches could be finished
the widow would have leisure to "while
away an hour or so" in his company.
The peaches were all peeled and ready
to be cut for the table. The widow
came in just at that time, praised his
expeditions manner Of work and indus
trious turn Of mind. He of course ex-
perienced no little pleasure at her sx-
pressed favorable opinion. Flattery is
q powerful suasiou." She remained
with him but a few minutes, when sud
denly it occurred to her that the peas
were to be shelled. They were brought
in and she insisted upon the beau help
ing her. OF course he would help. As
soon as he commenced in earnest on the
Smelling the peas, the widow thought Of
something which demanded her imme-
diate attention in another part Of the
house. Suiting her action to the word,
she left with the promise, 81 will soon
return ; excuse me for q minute" Sew
eral minutes passed and she did not re-
turn. The old fellow just then began
to " suspect some tings." he quietly
sat the tray Of peas on the table, took
his hat and left, under the impression
that that widow had an eye to business.
He is not so boastful since Of his widow,
nor does he like any n to say "Peel
these peaches" or " Shell the peas
