KILLED ny A RATTLEsNAKE. On
Friday last we first heard Of the death
of II boy living some distance from
town, from the bite OF u rattlesnalIe.
This weeks Democrat has been fur
uishcd with the particulars and from
IL wo learn that tho unfortunate lad
was ii years old, and son OF Mr..
Sylvanus Miller, living two miles from
Columbia. Inst week "Wednesday he
was out bookkeeping; and the snake,
n timber rattlesnake, two feet and a
half long, but without rattlcs, hit him
on the thigh, and held on while the
boy, greatly frightened, fell and rolled
some forty feet down the hill. The
boys cries soon brought assistance;
but no means that were tried for his
recovery proved successful; andat four
o'clock on Thursday morning he died,
In great agony, his body having as
stunned the color OF the snake.
We quote also the Recipe which DR.
Cornell furnishes TO the Democrat as
an infalllble cure for snake-bite, as he
has personally proven In over dozen
eases. IL 10 rs follows:-One table,
spoonful OF gunpowder, one table,
spoonful of salt, and the yellow of one
egg, beaten all together and applied
as n plaster to the wound. A yellow
water will issue; and when the plaster
becomes soaked with the poison IL
will fall of. Renew the plaster until
II will adhere to the wound--whioh is
evidence that the poison has all been
dsa1n

Members of the 33d Iowa will ronen'

In the old Cotton Warehouse, on

SO up there and SEQ the process; and
probably few of us ever saw any,
