InfatuatiOn of 1--WE Children for a
Familiar Snake.

The Baltimore Gazette has the fol-
lowing letter from Annapolis: "A
remarkable story of snake charming
has been brought to light here. Mr..
Luke Brewer lives near the dock in
this city, and is the father of little
girl ard boy aged respectively nine
and six years. He discovered on Sat
urday last that his children had been
in the habit of playing with a water
snake three and "a half feet in length.
1t appears that the reptile had made
its land home underneath the kitchen
flooring of Mr.. Brewers dwelling, and
came thence through an orifice in the
ground just outside the house. The
little girl on the day above mentioned
Informed her father that they had a
pretty pet, just like an eel. that came
out of hole in the ground and play
ed with them and the kittens. He
asked the child to show him where it
was but was told that it would not
come out while he was there. He
left for few minutes, and while re-
turning was met by his daughter, W ho
said she had called her pet, and it was
now playing with her brother. The
frightened father hastened to the yard
and was almost psralyzed with fear
Oh discovering bis little boy caressing
the snakes head. He ordered the
little fellow away. The child reluc-
tantly complied by stepping back,
whereupOn the father seized a club
when the reptile commenced to make
for its den. The boy then moved tow
ard it, calling IL endearlng names. and
was about to pick it up when Mr..
Brewer dispatched it,against the earn
est and fearful entreaties of the infat-
uated children. The boy, a robust,
hearty little fellow, refused to be COM
forted, sbstaining from food the rest
of the day, and begging to be allowed
to bring the dead serpent into the
house. Mr. Brewer thinks that the
children have been amusing them
selves ali summer with this strange
pet. The tail of the snake for a dis
tance of three inches from the end
bore evidence that two kittens, which
were IN the house, had also participa-
! ted in the sport.

In itself considered, it is of no con-
sequence to the public whether Thom-
as Paine changed his religious opin-
ions upon his death-bed or not.
Neither does it matter whether his
habits were good or bad at any period
of his life. His reputation and infiu-
ences rest upon the products of his
pen. But through DIR. Prime, of the
New York Observer, and Col. Inger-
soil this question has been revived
and the facts in the case brought out.
The truth is that the American peo-
pie owe a vast debt of gratitude to
Paine for his Incompatible political
pamphlets, Common Sense" and if
he had ignored theology his name
would have been revered as worthy
companionship with those of Jeffer-
son and Franklin, both of whom
sympathized with him in his opin-
ions, but not in his public expression
of them through the Age of Rea-
son. They foresaw the unpopulari-
ty of those opinions. but Paine was
not the man to heed prudential con-
siderations.
We have no sympathy with Paine
theology, but remem bering gratefully
the patriotic services of Mr.. Paine it
rejOices in his vindicatioH from the
charge of hypocrisy and drunkenness.

with all the world before her writes t:
II want every mother in the land to

into as hot water as can be borne, un-

Grated and torn, that amputation was
deemed inevitable. The mother wO'd
not listen to it, but kept the hand for
hours in basin of as hot water as the
child could bear. In few days the
fingers healed beautifully, without
scar or fester."
PICKLE FOR BEEF.-The following
is recon- mended by the New York
Cooking school Boil four gallons of
of water, with one and half pounds
of brown sugar or molasses, two oun-
ces saltpetre, and nine pounds salt,
until all are dissolved; skim as fast as
the scum rises; cool the brine or pic
kle thus made. Pack the meat close
ly in barrel, pour on the pickle and
keep the meat under it by means of a
weight. This quantity is sufficien,
for an ordinary barrel of meat, two
hundred pounds, closely packed.
Lamb and veal contain much less
solid food than mutton and beef, and
are consequently not so economical,
even if purchased at the same cost per
pound. Mutton, fin good condition,
is one of the most easily digested of
the ordinary meats. Pork is not so
easily digested as beef or mutton. The
flesh of young animals is not nearly
80 nutritious as that of those of ma
tuTe age.

A Terrible Liar.

He was the orfulest liar / ever
seen" said Cooley O'Leary, as we re-
turned from his friends funeral.
why, he told me once that he lived
on a small island out in the Pacific
Ocean on which there was a volcano.
And he said that there was an active
demand out in that region for water
melons, so be went to the business of
raising them. And he said one year
his whole crop failed except one mel
on, and that kept on growing at such
"a fearful rate that it crowded him off
the lowland and up on the side Of the
volcano. which generated steam
and caused an explosion which
blew up the whole concern to
atoms, and shot him four hundred
miles out to sea, where he was picked
up by q whaler. He used to tell
me that the one great mistake of his
life was that be didn't drive a plug in
the crater of the volcano so as to make
it water tight, and then slice open the
watermelon and come sailing home
on the half she'll
"He would lie. He said that once
he was cast away on an iceberg with
no baggage but a pair of skates and a
fishing pole. But he skated around
until he came across a dead whale,
frozen into the ice. So he took off
his shirt-it was night for six months
that year up therefore it into strips
for wick, ran the strips through the
bamboo fishing rod stuck the rod into
the fat of the whale, and lit the other
end. He said 1t burned spleDdidly,
and the iceberg reflected the light so
strongly that it was bright as day
forty miles around, and one vessel ran
into the berg thinking it was a light
house. He said he sold the iceberg to
the captain for SIS 600, and the captain
split it up and took it home, ,snd made
two hundred per cent. profit disposing
Ol IL DO ICE COulphules.
Lie? well, sir, he beat any man
ever come across. Told me that once
out In Nevada, a mountain lion at
tack ed him with his mouth wide open.
He had presence of mind enough to
grab it by the tongue and pull. The
lion roared with pain, but he did his
level best pulling, and pretty soon the
tongue began to give and the tail to
shorten, and directly out they came,
the tongue and the tail one long con-
tinuous string. He said he had 'em
at home and be showed 'em to me,
but my beliefs they were only three
or four cow-hides and a bulls tail
dovetailed together.
"He was astonishing as a truth
crusher. Said he served on a gunboat
during the war which was very small
and light, while the mortar on the
deck was very large and heavy, and
he said the first time they tried to
fire a fifteen inch shell, the shell re-
mained stationary, while the recoil
was so great that it fired the gunboat
four miles up the stream and landed
it in tree. He was liar, but now
he's dead reckon he'll ketch it,"
There was no doubt about it; Mr..
O'Leary was very successful as a con-
structor of energetic works Of fiction.

The lynching of an infidel in Bell
county, Texas, was noted in these col
umns lately. A fuller account says
that he was DR.. J. s. Russell, an old
and respectable resident. He was a
bitter opponent to Christianity, and
his crowning offense against the pre-
vailing religious sentiment was lee
ture against the divinity of Oh rist. A
mob of believers took him from his
bed at night, dragged him into the
woods, tied him to a tree, and gave
him a hundred lashes with a raw
hide. Previous to. the whipping, the
spokesman of the party said: 1--WE
know you are an honest man and a
good physician, but we will tolerate
no infidels in Bell county; so by the
help of God, we will stop your career
of infidelity." A written notice was
posted Oh the tree, that infidelity in
Rell county would in the future be
punished by hanging. There is no in
timation of any charge against DR..
Russell, except that of antagonism to
christianity. The lynchers were COM
posed of roughs, in part, bat the lead
ers were members of a Baptist church.

Sitting Bull Talks About the Custer
Massacre.

Sitting Bull has been talking with a
correspondent, and telling the story
of the Custer massacre. He says the
fight was hell, a thousand devils.
The squaws were like flying birds ;
the bullets like humming bees. We
thought We were whipped not at first,
but by and by afterwards when your
people were killed. / tell no lies
about dead men. These men who
came with the Long Hair were as
good men as ever fought. When they
rode up their horses were tired, and
they were tired. When they got off
their horses they could not stand firm
ly on their feet. They swayed to and
fro, so my young men have told me,
like limbs of expresses in great wind.
Some of them staggered under the
weight of their guns, but they began
10 fight at once. But by this time our
camps were aroused and there were
plenty of warriors to meet them.
They fired with needle guns, we re.
piled with magazine guns and repeat.
ing rifles. (Sitting Bull illustrated
by putting his palms together with
rapidity.) The young men rainee
lead across the river and drove thu
white braves back, and they rushed
across themselves, and then the,
found they had a good deal to do
The trouble was with the soldiers
They were so exhausted, and thei
horses bothered them so much, they
could not take good aim. Some o
their horses broke away from them
and left them to stand and drop anc
die. All the men fell back, fighting ant
dropping. They could not fire fasi
enough, though they kept In pretty
good order. They would fall bach
and make fresh stand beyond or
higher ground. There were 6
great many brave men in that fight
snd from time to time, while it was
going on, they were shot down like
pigs; they could not help themselves.
