SNAKES IN PARA.-It is doubtless owing to
the proximity of the forest that the snake has
5omesticated himself in Para, and lives on
terms of amity and familiarity with its inhabI
tants. Every house has Its pet snake and the
monster appears to occasion TO his keepers
neither repugnance nor alarm. The Biblical
decree of enmity between the serpent and the
sons of men appears to hold good everywhere
except in the Amazonian regions, where truce
ia proclaimed, and serpent and citizen abide
together iu peace. The snakes are OF the
boa constructor species; bat, so tar as can
learn, they generally refrain from constructing
or otherwise molesting the inhabitants. They
catch rats and "gobulate them, and now and
then monkey mysterlously disappears. Per
haps, as herculean exploits belong to the iabu-
lous ages, it would not be quite safe to trust
small black babies alone with them. But
tough and indigestble adults are perfectly sale.
We asked to see ''the snake" at warehouse
which we visited He was hauled from his
lair in some back room or closet by negro,
who held him by gripping his neck just behind
his head. The snake appeared tote familiar
with this rather ignominious mode OF appear
pp ip society, as be only expressed his emo
tions in a series of iatuous and imbeclle wig
oles and when released coiled himself delber-
stely upon the floor, and proceeded to take
"forty wiuks," like the fat boy OF PickwicSlan
memory. We stopped street vender VINO
had barrel OF snakes for sale. Discerning IN
ns nossible purchasers, he tipped them upon
the payement and stirred them about with his
toot exhibiting their fue points to the best
aSvantage. and informed US, in Portuguese,
that thew were much better snakes than usual,
and that if we missed that chance We were not
the men he took US for. On consideration, +
we determined to miss that chance and Iett
the snake man cursing and bundling his snakes
back into the barrel-HTper' Magazine.

They, however, heard OF his coming
and Intentions, and left for South

too fleet for him and succeeded In
mek!ng their escape. The probability
10 they will not soon be seen again In

workmen commenced tearing out the
front OF The first story OF DR.. Luns.
tOtd's residence, on Market street, be.
tween Monroe and Quincy, preparatory
to lifting 1t up as business room. We
hear that 1t will be furnished with

occupied by an agent OF one OF the great
sewing machine companies, at present
on Main street. Gradually but surely,
business Ia getting over on Market
street, and we think the day Is not far
dlstant when 1t will be the street OF the
city on which the retail trade will be
done. The completion OF tho bridge
over tue creek will hasten this result.
