A venomous serpenl.

A specimen OF the Hamadryas elaps,
a venomous snake allied to the cobras,
has been added to the collection Of SER
penis in the Geological Gardens, Lon
don, The snake is found in India, the
Andaman and Philippine Islands and in
New Guinea. 1t preys habitually upon
other snakes, attains a large size, some
times measuring thirteen feet in length,
and is a bold and formidable enemy.
Its venom is fatal in a few minutes. Mr..
Theobald stated that he heard Of a we'll
authenticated case Of a powerful male
elephant being killed by its bite. The
elephant was pulling down with his
truAk some creepers or boughs, when a
large Gnan (the Indian name Of the ser
pent), which vas disturbed in the tree,
struck the elephant in the trunk between
the eyes. The elephant at nce re.
treated, became faint and died in about
three hours" Mr.. Theobald relates Of
his personal knowledge that a snake
charmer was bitten by one, and died Of
the wound Immediately. The specimen
in the Geological Gardens is over seven
feet in length, and is in excellent health.
Shortly after his arrival he vas fed with
an ordinary snake, which he quickly
bolted head first. The Hamadryas re-
sembles the cobra, but has a less devel-
oped hood, that, when spread, is seer to
be marked with pretty bands. The head
is somewhat almond-shaped, and much
like that of a lizard. When sitting up
with hood expanded, the snake is CON
stantly jerking its head in a restless
manner. Its eye is clear and bright.
When disturbed, it Kisses loudly and
extends its long, black, forked tongue,
vibrating it with marvellous celebrity.

SpEAHER MEG UIRE.

Speaker Mcclure sends us q letter, the
second part of which is labOriOus and
entirely successful effort to contradict the
first. He repels the insinuation that his action
in the Assembly was inspired by sympathy
for the Canal Ring and If he had stopped
there, great many people would have
believed him. But angry men often tell the
truth by inadvertence, and Mr.. Mcclure, in
the heat of his passion, goes on to declare
his alliance with the Canal faction so loudly
that his sympathy with the Ring is no longer
a matter OF inference, but an acknowledged
fact of history. SO far, Mr.. Jarvis Lord and
Mr.. jeremiah Mcclure are the only politicians
in the Legislature who have ventured openly
to range themselves on that side. Mr..
Mcclure of course knows that the suspicion
of his tenderness towards the Canal Ring is
at least three months old. The influences
which assailed him in the appointment
of the standing committees were 'noto-
rious, and his placing Alanson Page
at the head of the Canal Committee
was scandal which it needed the most cir
cumspect behavior on his part TO put at rest
But he seems not to be prudent man. and
