a CharmingSnake Story.

Mr. Sam Gentry, living over the line in the
adjacent county of Stewart, has in his posses
sion purse made Of the tanned skin of IA rat.
tlesnake, which he caught and killed under
the following extraordinary circumstances:
In going along path in wheatfield he came
across the snake lying at full length before
him. manifcsting no disposition to retreat or
attack, and apparently waiting for something
to turn up. Mr.. Gentry, who is practical
mesmerst, concluded to try his powers upon
the dangerous reptile before him, reasoning
that if a snake can magnetic bird, why can
not man, endowed with greater mesmeric pow
er, put Il snake under the power of his Will:
Taking his position at the side of the danger
Gus but quiet subject, he made quick undula-
tory passes with both hands from the head TO
the tail, and in few moments had the salts
faction of seeing the snake completely within
his power-charmed, magnetized, mesmerized,
whichever it may be properly called. Placing
one of his hands in front of his subject 1t i'm
mediately crawled ON his right arm, then over
his neck to the left, Gentry in the meantime
continuing the mesmeric passes. He then car
ried the rattlesnake home on his arm, when,
under his direction, one of his sons opened its
mouth and unfolded its fangs, the snake quiet
ly submitting to the novel operation. After
fully satisfying himself and a number of his
neighbors, who were present and witnessed
the affair of the truth of his theory he cast the
snake 10 the ground. killed it. stripped of the
skin, tanned il. and made himself purse,
which he has ever since carried about his
person.

Nadal, in his "Notcs on England, says that
the climate of that country has, notwithstand-
ing its want of sun, its fogs, and dampncss,
one great advantage over that of the United
States, inaSmuch as there is hardly day in
the year when man cannot work or take OK
ercise out OF doors in comfort. Many persons
will feel inclined to agree with him. Up to
the middle of September there had not been
ten days since the middle of May when active
exercise in this part of the country could be
termed agreeable between A. VI. and u. NJ.
and often the night was even more oppressive
than the day. 1t is true that we generally have
in the latter autumn six weeks of weather that
is not surpassed in any part of the world, but
we do not have more than three weeks at most
of such weather in the spring, and nine weeks
of delightful temperature, against torty-tlrec
in which we either shiver or sweat, is a small
proportion There is one perfect climate in
the world, and then to whom that IS more than
all beside should go to Tasmania. There tho
mercury in winter ranges from 50' to 90 and
in summer is seldom above 500, and mornings
and nights are cool During the greater part
of the year the climate resembles our finest DC
tober and November weather The scenery is
exquisite, and from fertile valleys and splen-
did lakes you look up To mountains covered
with snow. There are those who maintain
that our climate was never intended for Euro
peans and that the North American Indians
are the natural outgrowth of it. Considering
its irving extremes of heat and cold, it must be
confessed that we have done pretty well under

SITTING AROUND.

They arc sitting around upon barrels and chairs,
Discussing their own and their ncighbors' affairs
And the look of content that is seen on each face
Seems to say, II have found my appropriate
place,
Sitting around"
In harrooms and groceries calmly they sit,
And serenely chew borrowed tobacco and spit,
While the stories they tell, and the jokes thai
they crack,
Show their hearts have grown hard and undoubt-
edly black,
While sitting around.
The 'sitter around" is no man of means,
And his face wouldn't pass for quart oil "hilc
beans,
Yet he somehow or other contriyes to exist
And is frequently seen with drink in his hSl,
While sitting around.
The loungers they toll not, nor yet 40 they spih'
Unless it be yarns while enjoying their gih,
They are people OF leisure, yet often, tbs true,
They allude to the work they're intending to do
While sitting around.
THEY'VE habit of talking of other mems wives,
As they white up sticks with their horn-han-
died knives;
They're scaly old set, and wherever you 60.
you'll find them in groups or strung out IN a
row,
sitting around.
