BITTEN BY RATTLEssAKE--A Singular Case
A letter dated Cornwall, N. ", July 9Th,
says Gu Saturday, June 2S Joseph Hulse, a
wood-chopper of this place, was bitten by n
rattlesnake. While on Storm-King Mountain
five miles up, he encountered serpent, and
wanting one for friend who had rheumatism
the belief of many hereabous that snake
grease is cure for it--he chased the snake
which took refuge in wood-pile, and Huse
seized him by the back of the neck but not so
far from the head that it contrived to turn and
plant one OF its fangs in the index finger of his
right hand IIulse held fast to his snake, new
ertheless, stamped his head of, and then spent
half an hour III looking for white ash leaves,
which are believed to be an antidcte for the
poison. He found none to suit him, however,
aud started for Cornwall. He was bitten at T.
and it was IL O'Clock when he reached the viii
lage, and DR.. Beatiie was summoned.
AT this time the arm aud finger were very
much swollen, and very gangrenous, the ac-
dion of the heart had almost ceased, and the
man seemed like one in a state of intoxication.
DIR. Beattie hastily cut the finger open, and ad-
mnistered two quarts OF whiskcy in twenty
minutes laudanum and quinine were also
given ia large quantities, and Notwithstanding
the loss Of three half piuts of blood from the
finger, the pulse increased, and IIulse became
perfectly conscious. lie is, after eleven DAYS,
in apparently good health, with excellent ap-
petite, but as black as any African in New
York The black is occasionally streaked with
blue, purple and green, which appear and dis
appear alternately. He is in the hands of Mr..
John Brookes, and may be seen by any phys-
clan or other person who is DESTROYS of MAX
ing an Investigation.

January, liz the year 1868, conveyed by way

and Jane Jardine, his wife, TO Margaret DON
ougho and Sarah Donougho, to secure the
payment of the sum of four hundred dollars.
The Bill states that on the twenty fourth

by their deed of that date, conveyed unto the

New APPLICATIONS OF PAPER. -Singuarly
enough, the Iron Age argues that paper is to
become the general, if not universal substi-
,ute for wood, leather, and India-rubber, as
also, to some extent, for copper, tin, and zinc,
and that even iron is not adapted 10 uses so
widely various--it being practicable, indeed /,
10 bring paper pulp TO such state of tough
ness and solidity, by pressure, as TO be almost
as fire-proof and indestructible as iron. and
thus our railroad cars may be made Of paper,
instead of iron, thereby preventing the dan
gers now incurred in case of accidents. II is
claimed that, in proportion to weight, paper
is, probably, the strongest material Ct CON
struction known, combining more perfectly
than any other substance the qualities of
strength, lightness, fexibility, durability and
cheapuess So many and various, too, are
the articles Of which it can be made, that it
can be manufactured in quantities practically
unlimited in every civilized country, and, so
long as plants continue TO grow, paper manu-
flcture can be sustained. /; is. also, under
all circumstances, an easy material TO work
and handle. The fact is probably well known
that the paper wheels which have been used
with success on some Of the palace cars are
formed of compressed paper fitted into steel
fire; iron plates are then adapted TO each
side of the paper, and bolted together to pre-
vent any displacement of the filling.

MARRYING IN HAsTE.-The New York Times
refers to a recent divorce case in Brooklyn
court, as indicating the loose manner in which
the marriage ceremony is often performed by
authorized persons. We quote: 1.-THE parties
were at a christening; the girl was only six
teen, and in the trial it was shown that the
marriage was celebrated by the Clergyman who
performed the christening, and that previous
TO it the unconscious bride had drank several
glasses of Rhine wine, and that she made no
REPLIES TO the minister's questions; aud yet,
In spite Of Der extreme youth, which should
have awakened suspicion, this minister Of the
Gospel found no improperly in marrying a
half-intoxicated girl TO a man whom he had
no evidence TO show she was willing to accept
for her husband 1t is TO be regretted that
the court had no opportunity-ihe case being
heard before a referee-of publicly rebnking
this most unslerical and indecent conduct"

TnE New DEGREE OF MURDER. On the same
day that young Walworth was found guilty
of murder in the second degree, the district
attorney accepted plea of ''gailty of murder
in the second degree" from monster named
Gllen, who had crert up stealthly behind his
wife in the street, and stabbed her five times,
she dying ten minutes afterwards This wretch
had clandestinely married an innocent girl
Too late she found our his worthless charac-
ter, and refused TO live with him, being en-
couraged in that decision by her parents
For this the husband slew her with barba-
rous prodigality OF stabs The case, in all its
aspects, was one of murder iE the first degree,
even according 10 the severe definition of the
amended law. 1t involved, TO all appearan-
ces, collaboration and generalization, which
are now made the essentials Of the highest Of
fence. Under the old statute this Gillen would
have been sent to the galows by any jury not
debaucbed By sentimentalism and afraid to be
responsible for hanging murderer. But the
district attorney is well aware of the difficulty
now 10 be met with in obtaining convictions
of murder in the first degree, however much
deserved by the most cold blooded assassins,
and he was glad to let Gillen plead guilty to
the second grade Of murder.-N Y. Herdtd.

THE GooDMcH MURDER MYSTERY CLEARED
UP.--The murder of Charles Goodrich, in
Brooklyn, last winter was one Of the most mys-
,erious Of tragedies. He was a wealthy bache-
lor of good social relations, though mixed mp
in more than one disreputable connection
and resided alone in an elegant house. He
was found dead on the floor one morning
with several pistol wounds in his body, and
no traces Of the perpetrator Of the crime
existing, save in the empty weapon by his side
and some bloody towels near by. Opinions
were divided as to whether it was a suicide or
murder, several parties were arrested, but
they could not be implicated, and the inge-
nuity of the police seemed to be at fault. They
have however, had various suspicious char
acters under Surveillance, and the arrest of one
Of them has led TO confession of the crime. -
She was 4 woman who had been mistress of
Goodrch's He had determined to cast her
off, and in revenge she shot him dead on the
day he had ordered her to leave him. Her
story is sad but forcible illustration of the
influence of one crime in leading 10 the COM
mission of another.
