A Rig Sell ON n Citizen oil Port
Henry.

Henry.
That great unrivalcd humbug, the Lake
Champlain Snake, after having been killed
several times, finally becomes the subject
or rather the principal-of splendid
practical joke. A resident of Whitehall
says correspondent of the Troy Press,
and one who is considered in every way
responsible, wrote to friend in Port
Henry, that his snakeship had been taken,
and was lying on the Whitehall dock, the
observed of all observers He described
him as being fifty ght feet long and about
twenty inches in diameter, and that they
would keep him in Whitehall for a day or
two and then ship him off to be embalmed,
preparatory to his being placed in the
museum of Anatomy in Albany. OF course
the news soon spread, and quite a number
took the boat for Whitehall to see the
monster. One of the boys on his return
was asked by your correspondent if he had
seen the wonder. He replied with dignity
that he had had that pleasure, and being
asked to tell how and under what circum-
stances, he said that on his arrival at White
hall he met some friends and asked them
concerning the snake, they told him it
could be seen and they led him off in the
direction of the hotel, and was told it was
in large box or something in the hotel.
Unsuspectingly he went into the hotel and,
before he knew it, was in front of the bar,
and his conductors swallowing handkcr-
chiefs, but, making the best of it, he
'bought" like man.

pine Hill Lake.

One of the widest and most enchanting
spots in or about the town of Rutland is
Pine Hill This elevation is situated north
west of the village, being some two miles
to its summit, from town. The hill Is
covered with trees and underbrush most of
the way on every side, some portions of 1t
seeming like spot where man never trod
before. The attractions presented are
principally In the splendid view to be OBJ
tanned from its southern and northern ex-
tremity. From the former the village of
Rutland lies before the gaze in all its beauty
and grandeur of effect. The town itself
spreads out in one grand panorama, rare in
its loneliness and vast in circumference.
The spires of St. Peters, the Congrega-
| tional Church, the new Baxter Bank, the
Railroad round-house and others of the
larger public buildings loom up with strik-
ing vividness, while back of the town rise
the Green Mountains, beautiful in color,
immense in proportion and sublime beyond
compare This prospect cannot be excelled,
hardly equaled, this side of Mount Mans
field and Cancels Hump, and the walk,
long and tresome. though it may be, is well
repaid in the view presented.
Situated beyond the summit and trife
north lies the lake. Here in all the beauty
of calm and undisturbed repose is sheet
of water nearly one-third of a mile in
length, and one-half of that distance in
width, with no outlet or inlet. Trees grow
on every side to the waters edge and every
thing combines to render it one of the wild
est and most -the-word spots that
man ever stumbled upon. The observer is
at once reminded of the Lake of the Dis
NAL Swamp" although the beauty of its
surrounding scenery is apt to dispel the H.
fusion. On its broad expanse never boat
was launched, unless it was the canoe of
the red man generations ago. Its threaded
banks have never felt the tide of civliZa-
ton except when now and then the ex-
hausted traveller and tourist sits himself
down upon the overhanging rocks or on
the trunk of some fallen tree to wonder
and admire.
The ascent to the summit of the hill is
easy and gradual and made from the yi-
lage by q well-worn path that strikes off
from West street at the covered railroad
bridge. In making the grand tour of the
circle deep and dense wood must be ira
versed at the northern extremity, that
brings the traveller out at the farm of Col.
Proctor, and Grove street is reached after
a tramp of some four miles. The walk,
despite its length, is one every way delight
full, as it leads one through the charming
scenery that abounds in the woods of the
Green Mountains, presents view of valley
and town unsurpassed and a look at the
lake, so rare in its location, as to be simply
wonderful, and combines, at this season of
the year, sunshine and shade in pleasing
variety.

DAN FRANCISCO, August 20.
The James surveying party arrived at
San Diego yesterday from Yuma They
report that they have made a thorough ex-
ploration south of the boundary line to the
Gulf of California, and have made
important geographical discoveries, and
explored most of this singular and hereto
fore unknown coast, overcome many
dangers, and suffered much hardship.
The main object of the expedition which
was to determine the feasibility of turning
the waters of the Gulf of California into
the Colorado Desert, thereby creating eli
matte changes in Southern. California, have
been successful, demonstrating the fact
that this may be done at comparatively
small expense.

LIST or HEAVY ENGINEERS
Champion BcIt on weight.

We have all heard and read of conven-
tons of fat men who have assembled in
different parts of the Union as one common
brotherhood, and we all are aware that
such gatherings have been characterized by
the most jovial feeling; that wit has flown
in a sparkling stream from these good hui
mored souls, and we always expect it. The
old motto of Laugh and grow fat Is well
carried out and whenever we sec body of
men together who are noticeable for their
avoirdupois, we always feel like drawing
near and enjoying the fun that is sure to be
had. "Old King Cole was a jolly old
more on account of his exceeding breadth
of waist than any other popularity about
him. The smiles that ripple around the
lips Of a jolly old tar who has laughed all
his life and grown fat over it, are always
contagious and the observer is fain to join
in the laugh and merriment.
Happiness is oftimcs denoted by this
PECULIARLY, for unhappiness is sure to be
evidenced in the contrary sign. And when
we see such body of men who combine
jollity and good humor with kindness of
disposition and consistency of purpose in
whatever they undertake, our hearts are
drawn towards them at once and we feel
like giving them hearty "God bless you"
Such race of men do we now gladly
present to the attention of our readers, the
Locomotive Engineers of the Rutland Di-
vision of the Central Vermont Railroad.
We have been given list OF the heaviest
men who belong to the race, all of whom
are now running as engineers on said road,
between Essex Junction, via Rutland, to

of whom weigh one hundred and eighty

A GALLANT DEED.-An incident rather
alarming in its character, in this day of
steamboat horrors and railroad slaughters,
took place at Fort Edward on Wednesday
last. A little boy about three years old
was at play in the dry docks, or rather the
sluicc-way; while boat was being repair
en-, by heavy current of water the boy
was carried through the sluice-way, dis
lance of some four rods, into the canal.
A Pennsylvania boat was passing through
the lock at the time and the driver, Walter
Wilson, small lad some fourteen years
old, discovering the child being carried by
the current under the boat, Immediately
jumped in, dove under and in gallant
manner rescued the boy. He is entitled to
the lifelong gratitude of the parents and
should be handsomely rewarded In the bar
gain.
