A snake Eater.

Tie Richmond Register gives an account OF a
strange character who lives at Waco, in Madison
county. He is about forty years of age, and is a
hermit extraordinary. Disdsining to live in the
habitatons of men be frequents woods, dark
holows and caverns, where he lives, and neith-
able TO drive him from his solitary abode. His
purchases ten cents worth OF meal at time,
which he keeps in black satchel aud uses for a
pillow, with the bare groand for his couch, and
nought except the blue canopy OF heaven for a
covering. He passes the most of his time in
sleep. In appearance he ID lean and cadayer-
Gus. Possessing an omniyerous gullet he eats
snakes, lizards, skunkH, ground hogs, rats, moles
and all creeping things.
Last week he ate ground hog which had been
killed two weeks previous; putrefaction had ta-
ken place, but he said it WAS splendid. He cooks
his food in a novel manner, his only utensil for
| that purpose being an old coffee pot, into which
ha plita and ntl.ap a~tislee Of food,
sprinkling with little meal, over which he pours
some water and sets it on the fire to warm, and
then devours it. He cooks snakes by roasting.
He ate large COW snake roasted last week.
sucked the bones and pronounced it sumptu-
ous repast.
He refuses To eat at table, though repeated
" urged TO do so, or to partske of any food I'M
less prepared by himself. Strange to say this
singular specimen of humanity can read and
write, and he possesses a fair education. Ills
coloquial powers are good, though he seldom
and sparingly admits of intercourse. Studious.
~ avoiding society, his whole nature seems to
he warped by moroseness and misantlropy.

The most determined aud repulsiye suicide
which has occurred in the vicinity was committed
yesterday On the summit, near Franklin. The
engineer of tile train on he Jimtown road, which
reaches Franklin abcut ) p. m, saw a man sit
ting on the track as the locomotive rushed round
a sharp curve. His coat, vest and hat had been
removed and laid aside carefully. The blowing
Of the whistle only caused him 70 look hastily
up. When the whistle blew down brakes the
man rose, and as the train.came laundering down.
despite the efforts to curb its speed, the suicide
deliberately laid his neck on the rail A mo-
ment more and to the horror Of the engineer,
the locomotive passed over it. the dull, crushing
movements OF the wheels as it tore the head
from the body announcing that the tragedy il
had been sought to prevent had been effected
The train was stopped and the body placed in
| the baggage car, the head being Immediately
| wrapped up in wet clotha. At the time our in.
formant left Franklin the body was being re.
ing removed but up to that time no discovery
had been made leading to identification. His
clothes indicate that he had been laborer, but
the cause Of the strange tragedy remains yet tc
be explained. Titusuille pa Courier, Oct G

New York Still DulI.

A letter from New York, lately printed in a
Western journal, contained these statements
In fifteen years there has not been in New
York 60 dull spring and summer. Dealers in all
kinds of commercial commodities agree in this,
aud the slight throb of activity that during the
past few weeks has quickened the body CONNER
cial is no indication Of the return of the usual
business season. 1t id entirely owing to the ar
rival of Southern and Western retail dealers,
who. having carefully gagged the market, and
discovered that they can buy to better advantage
during period of Unprecedented stagnation, de-
sire to lay in their winter stocks.
The sales made 80 far do not, as l learn from
wholesale dealers, at all approximate those OF
last year. Out-of-town retailers who last year
gave orders by the thousand dollars worth, this
year are satisfied to express their orders in hun
dreds, and it is estimated that very few order
more than fifty per cent. of their usual supply.

Itseems that the city had been too much CONTROL

somewhat autocratic sway of few individuals,
whom circumstances have made conspicuous.
This explanation sufices. Newark, like some
