Tree and Serpent Worship remarks tina.
traces of the latter are 'found lurking in
out of f-the-way corners of the globe, startling
us at times with the unhalowed rites which
seem generally to have been associated with
its prevalence 1t may, therefore, interest
that learned gentleman to know that some
singular rites and ceremonies, which appear
to have been handed down from remote
heathen times, are still to be found in full
force at Luchon, in the Pyrenees, where it is
customary, on the Eve of st. John, to sacrt-
flee living serpents, by means of hery and
somewhat cruel ordeal, IN the following man
ner-A hollow column, composed of strong
wicker-work is raised to the height of about
sixty feet in the centre of the principal
suburbs and interlaced with green
foliage up to the very top; while the most
beautiful flowers and shrubs procurable are
artistically arranged in groups below,
so as to form q sort of background to the
scene. The column is then filled with COM
bustible materials, ready for ignition, At an
appointed hour-about p. Ma grand pro-
cession, composed of the clergy followed by
young men and maidens in holiday attire,
pour forth from the town chanting hymns,
and take up their position around the column.
Meanwhile, bonfires are lit, with beautiful
effect, in the hesurroundinghil Asmany living
serpents as could be collected are now thrown
into the column, which is set on fire at the
base. by means of torches armed with which
about fifty boys and men dance around with
frantic gestures. The serpents, to avoid the
flames, wligge their way to the top, whence
they are seen lashing out laterally until finally
obliged to drop, their struggles for life giving
rise to enthusiastic delight among the sun
rounding spectators
This is a favorite annual ceremony for the
inhabitants of Luchon and its neighborhood
and local tradition assigns to it heathen
origin. In connection with Mr.. Fergusson's 5
Investigations, it may be worthy of further
inquiry; have, therefore, ventured on a sim
pie narration of facts, as witnessed by my
self and several other English visitors to
Luchon at midsummer last.
