story comes to us from Baker county con-
corning the queer conduct of an alligator
which inhabited large pond, called the
Goose Pond, near Lomax, on the line of
the South and North Alabama Railroad A
man was going to the saw-mill, with one or
more logs drawn by oxen, when he was at
tackled en- route by one of the many alliga-
spot. The gentleman, who was plucky
fellow, showed fight, and as an earnest of
his hostile purpose threw pole axe at his
alligatorship, which the latter disposed Of
as a hungry man would dispose of choice
sandwich. In plain English, he swallowed
it, and then as an earnest of what he pro-
posed to do went for his assalant. who.
fearful that he might follow the axe If he
remained. fed for dear life. The alligator
then attacked the oxtcn, and had succeeded
in killing one when the gentleman. having
secured reinforcemcnts, returned to the as
sault An immediate attack ensued, which
resulted, after much effort, in the death of
the amphibious brute. 1t measured seven
feet in length, and was regarded ~ fear

4 BiH snake story.

A few days since while Joseph Seby
was gathering raspberries he came to what
he supposed to be a log, and being some

rest, when, much to his surprise, he com
menced moving down the hill He was so
frightened that he did not know for some
time what was the propellng power, but
when he recovered himself he found that

his back. He supposed it was from fifty
to sixty feet long and az thick as his body.
lie fell off during the journey, and the
snake continued down into the hollow.
This snake has been seen by various parties
Tor several years past, mostly in the rasp-
berry season, but nobody has enjoyed such
an intimate acquaintance with the monster
as MIR. Sclby. We should advise everybody
to be on the lookout for this reptilan mon
ster during the raspberry season This
story is match for the Whitehall and
Burlington sea serpent.

Can greater swindle be imagined The
secretary of war, however, essays to defend
himself, and the correspondent of the Bos-
ton Advertiser, evidently sympathizing with
the secretary, telegraphs the substance of
his defense, which was published in that
paper yesterday. His first proposition is
that 1t was made sin pursuance and under
explicit instructions of q resolution of Con-
gress," which was passed without objec-
ton, Senator Justin $. Morrill, "sitting by
and interposing no question" Why in the
name of heaven, should he? After the
manner in which the whole subject matter
was ventilated in Congress fifteen years be-
fore, and In the face of the disclosures then
made and the report and resolutions adopt
ed, could he, or any other sane man, for a
moment suppose that such resolution,
perfectly legitimate and necessary in every
respect, would be seized hold of and made
cover and excuse for accomplishing an
exposed fraud and swindle? 1t is worse
than childish to bring forward any such
arguments. we might as wei nave knaVes
to govern us as fools, and, we must confess,
we can't see much choice between the two.
His other excuse is rs ridiculous as the first.
The Adcertiwy says ''the character OF
''the Floyd sale in 1857 to Steele never
'come in any manner under Secretary Bel
''knap's official notice. What of II He
was bound to know il, or he is not quail
fled for his position. If the secretary OF
war should see soldier shoot general
we presume he would do nothing about it
until it was brought under his 'olficial no
tice." The truth is General Belknap has
made terrible mistake. Through his
action, an outrageous swindle has beer
perpetrated and one, too, against which
the country has been ON their guard toi
years. We don't impugn his personal in
tcgrity, but he has shown himself an I'M
safe counsellor has been imposed upon b,
designing knaves, and the only course left
for him is to resign and, at the same time
keep still

Those surprise parties, somehow. nearly
always turn out unpleasantly They tell
about one that came off up in Connecticut
recently which was not half as joyous as it
should have been. 1t was reported of
man and his wife, who had been married
for many years without having any chill
dren, that they had ut last been made happy
by the birth of daughter. Some of their
friends determined to give the man pre-
sentation surprise party. So abont forty
persons marched up to the house one even
ing. carrying a cradle, and lots OF gum
rings, and bibs, and bottles with gum noz-
zles, and baby carriage, and some little
night gowns and coral armlet, and a gross
of soothing syrup, and sock, and paregoric.
And they all burst into the parlor at once
on tip-toc. And when the man in amaze
ment, asked them what they meant by such
conduct, they said they were coming quiet
ly so rs not to wake the baby And when
he blushed and stammered and asked What
baby they said his baby, and began to
hand him the things, and To load him up
with soothing syrup and gum rings until he
tlOOied one OF the guests with quart hot
lle of parcgoric and held him down until
he explained. And then it was revealed
that it was all mistake about that little
daughter; that no such arrival had taken
place at all, but that the report was false.
And then the surprise party Was a great
deal more surprised that the man was and
the guests gathered up that infant furni-
turc and tried to pretend to the man that
they never thought he had IA daughter, but
that they understood he had accepted II
position M a director OF AL orphan asylum.
and that they brought around few things
for him To distribute among the poor father
less children The maa said il was singu-
larry thin, and then the company went
home. The constitutional convention ought
10 adopt some kind OF measure To pre-
vent these mistakes. Mar Adisr.

What Happened 10 n Danbury Girl.

The Danbury Necs says: A retired
clergyman sends us an account of II little
affair that happened in his place. 1t APP
pears that young woman, a fine. spirited
girl, engaged at a wash-tub opposite an
open door. Just behind her was young
man, rs is generally the case and in the
yard was an old buck that was allowed the
freedom of the premises which is not al
ways the case, we are glad to say Well,
this buck came to the door and looked in.
and the young man, going close behind the
young woman, pointed his finger straight
at the buck, and the old fellow, recognizing
at once the pressing character of this mute
invitation, put down his head and dashed
forward, and the miserable man stepped to
one side and fed and the young woman,
all unconscious of the arrangement, receiv-
ed the shock without warning and passed
ed over the tub, and the air for an instant
appeared to be full of slippers and wet
clothes and soap and hot water and snds.
And the next minute that goat came flying
out of that door at dreadful speed, bald
the whole length of his spine, and with u
wild look in his eye. And for an houl
afterwards he stood at the back of the barn
scratching his chin and trying to recall all
the circumstances in the unfortunate affair.

A GREAT HORROR DONE AWAY WITH

House cleaning Is great horror TO nine men
out OF every ten. When chat time comes, the
"men folks" as a rule, give the domestic
hearth "wide BERTH" Oceans OF suds-the
product OF tons OF soap-fairly flood every part
OF the house. The women, from the mistress
down, labor as they never worked before, and
what with the discomfort the smell OF suds I'D
the product OF colds and oyerwork, matters are
generally disagreeable. The simple use Of Sa-
polio instead OF soap does away with all this
discomfort. 1t lightens the labor o hundred
