with the monster. for suoh il prosed 20
be, measuring tea feet Eve end one half
inches ia length and several inches 10
diameter. me story Of the snakes cap
ture is THE. told ~ the Fulton Gazette !:
Last Sunday evening a. Mr.. harley
DilIsou vss returning home from . visit,
he discovered the reptile on y log ut the
edge Of the pond. barley made for it,
an1 as no clubs or stones Ssre near, he
seized the snake BY the tail, and eodesv-
ored to thrash his head against the log,
but it quickly wound itself around the
stump aud hegau to pull on barley, who
bad all he could do to keep his hold, but
be would not let 60; hs had o grudgs
against the snake. Lately he lost . val.
uxble buck, and the 'vsrmiut' might
know something about it, and besides,
barley was grit to the back bone. He
thought Of calling for hop, but il was
Sunday night and he knew folks would
think he had been somewhere, aud so he
held on, waiting for something to turn
up. He did not have to wait long, for
the snake had decided on an aggressive
tnovemnt, and quickly uucoilinH himself
made for Darley. who succeeded in sez
ins it by the head, but could not preven.
it from winding itself around him.
Now the struggle began in earnest,
both evidently knowing that It was woe
to the vanquished.' barley had all he
could do to hold the monsters head, and
i. was momentarily tightening its coils
about him. At last he grew faint and
Tell to the ground. and had just gwen up
all hopes of life when he discovered the
sawyer's sx near him hope nerved his
muscles, and releasing one hand he
seized the ak, and tefore the snake could
enter a protest severed its head from its
body, and then, exhausted by fear and
exertion, sank to the ground in swoon
The next morning he was discovered BY
the sawyer, who. By the aid Of the neigh
bors. carried him home. Medical aid
was Immediately procured. He is now
comfortable and in fair way of recovery
though it will doubtless be sometime
before he fully RECEIVERS from the severe
shock that his nerves have received.
The snake is on exhibition at the salt
works. 1t measures ten feet five and @
half inches in length, and three and ono
half inches 10 diameter"

THIS SIDE AND THE OTHER In look
ing over au old note book Of my father S
written many years ago, came across an
anecdote which, if it has never appeared
in print before, IS too good to be lost.
While John Branch, of North Carolina,
was General Jacksons Secretary Of the
Navy, he, Tsxewell and Daniel Webster,
we're walking on the north bank Of the
Potomac, at Washington. Tazewell, vii
ling to . use himself with Branch sim
plicity, said:
"Bvanch, Ill bet you a ten dollar hal
that | can prove that you arc on the
other side OF the river
"Done," said Branch.
"Well," said TaIewell, pointing to the
opposite shore, isn't that one side Of The
river?'
Yes"
well, isn't this the other side p
Yes"
"Then, as you are here, arc you not OF
the othcr side 7"
"Why, l declare said poor Branch
$50 it 10 But here comes Webster. II
win back the hat from him."
Webster had Jagged behind, but nov
came up. end Branch accostsJ him:
"Webster. III bet . you ten dollar ha
that can prove that you are on th'
other side Of the river"
"Done T.
"Wel, isn't this one side?
"Yes"
"Well. isn't that the other side 7"
"Yes. hut | am not on that side !"
Branch hung bis head, and submitte,
to the loss Of the two hats as quietly a
he could Exchange.
