In the Court room that followed the m

4 O'clock they entered the room. After
they were seated the clerk directed the
prisoner 10 stand up. He stood erect, and
seemed perfectly composed; the audience
who had come In held their breath, as II
were; and when the clerk asked tho jury
if they had agreed upon vCrdlctthe still

One deaicning yell of applause went up

A SteubenviIIe Snake Hunter.

From the SteubenviiIe Herald. Till. EDASliG =
II "A few days sinte a youth named
Hart, residing in the lower suburbs of
the city, was bitten, it is supposed fatal
ly, by one of the most poisonous Of rep
tiles a large leopperhead snake. The
lad has been in. precarious condition
since, as his blood appeared to be conf
pletely infused with the venom of the
snake, SO poisonous was the bite. The
snake escaped, much to the uneaSiness
of the people in tfeneigh borhood, who
instituted a search tor it without sue
cess. -. An employee of the Jefferson
Iron Weaks, named Wells, hearing of
the circumstance, volunteered TO cap
ture the snake if he was anywhere in
wood by smelling it out. Many being
without faith,i as to his ability to do
what he claimed, accompanied the
man with the singular organ of smell
to the place Where the snake was last
seen. Wells ihnine ediateIy took up the
scent of the reptile and followed the
meanderines9 along the creek to the
wood, and i'm the Incredible space of
half an hour had captured and dispatch
ed him, although many secured the
neighb6rhe for the same purpose. II
It is. said this species Of fsnake has a pc
culiar smell, partaking Of the odor of
fresh cucumbers, and that an expert
snake hunter can tell of the venomoas
reptiles presence censid derable distance
away, but few, however, have the fac
ulty to follow up the scent sufficiently
close to catch the creepers.. ilii il5i" ,l2i

steam. A large number of gentlemen
accompanied the, distinguished visitor.
An abundant lunch, was, of course, an
important incident Of the day. On this
Interesting occasion not only was Mr.
Greeley true to his temperance princi-
Piles, but the example had a. wonderful
effect upon the, others. AS the New
Orleans Times informs US, 'Sclaret was
ignored. AL the visitors drank milk,
the consumption of which amounted to
at least halfa dozen gallons "a, We con-
gratulate Mr.. Greeley on this effect of

drink milk, the millennium must in

which is too good to be lost: "There was
a good story Current last term which in
some way leaked out beyond the con-
fines Of faculty reservation, but has
never yet seen light in print. 1t hap

politicians has a son a member of the
freshman class In Yale. The initial of
the young, man g surname is thesaae as
that of the col6fed student Bouehet, and
the two We're consequently seated near
each other in recitation. Mr.. B., senior,
early in. the first term, wrote to one of
the professors, desiring him, as per-
sonal favor, to change his boys seat,
as it was for many reasons distasteful
to sit so near q negro.q The professor
wrote back that at present the students
were ranged in alphabetical order, and
it was not III his power TO grant the
favor, but next term thedesired change
