Rattlesnakes In q Ball.

Zebulon Martin and son, who live al
Henry's Bend, about six miles from Oil
City, Pa, while removing stones on
their farm the other day, discovered a
ball as large as . bushe1 basket, which
appeared to be q coil of black rope
knotted and curiously interlaced. The
warm sunshine fell upon the ball, which
soon seemed to move in its many coils,
and then the men saw that the ball was
q mass of snakes. The warmth revived
the dormant reptiles, and the surface of
the ball was soon covered with rattles,
which swayed to and fro with sound
resembling the blowing of wind through
the dead leaves of . tree. What seemed
at first gordian knot began to I'M
ravel. The tails protruded more and
more, and as the snakes unlocked their
intricate coils they appeared to be pack
ed with their heads in the center of this
living ball. The snakes soon complete
ly uncoiled themselves and showed
fight, whereupon the men set to the
work of slaughtering the reptiles. Fifty
six snakes were killed The largest
reptile possessed II rattles.-OI CUy

There is a good old English maxim that
teaches us to "believe every man honest until
We know him to be villain" American Gus
tom seems to have reversed this law and ap-
pears to make every man q villain until he has
proved himself an honest man. As with peo-
pie, so with things. Every article placed in
our markets can lay claim to popular favor
upon intrinsic merit and value alone. Con-
tinued popularity, therefore, is proof positive
Of intrinsic excellence. DR.. Pierce's Family
Remedies are far more popular to-day thar
ever before. The people have tested them and
know them to be genuine remedies for the dis
eases they are recommended to cure. The
Golden Medical Discovery and Purgative Pei
lets are the best Alternative, tonic, and cathar-
tic remedies that can be used in chronic dis
eases of the stomach and liver. The world
wide popularity Of the Favorite Prescription,
as never-failing remedy for Female Diseases,
would have alone secured to its discoverer the
fame be has SO richly won. DR.. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy, of which DR.. Pierce Is also proprie-
tor, is recommended by those who have tested
its virtues as u safe and reliable remedy for
catarrh in its worst forms.

NEW YORK Tribune: A CLEAN of good
fortune works an instantaneous change in
the most cordial and genteel of human be-
ings; to-day he is as truculent as if he still
owned niggers. But this is not the first
time that the Confederates have boosted Of
the conquest Of the capitol before taking it.
They may remember previous occasions on
which they crossed the Potomac: we have
no doubt that they also remember the cir
cumstances under which they went back
again. Before their "glorious triumph Is
complete " they will have to reckon with the
same party which met them at Antietam and
Gettysburg.
AT the New England Methodist Confer
ence held recently in Worcester, Mass, the
Rev. Dr. Fuller, who is editor Of the MethO.
dist AdcOcGte, at Atlanta, Ga, made some
remarkable statements. The purpOrt of
these was that half the wrongs and Injuries
Of the freedmen had not been told. This
DR.. Fuller ayowed upon personal observa.
ton and belief. The blacks, he said, were
defrauded Of their wages, and they suffered
for food. This sufficiently accounted for the
exodus Of which so much has been said.
Cotton is raised by their labor, and yet they
are In state bordering on starvation. The
Conferences Committee on the state Of the
country made similar statements.
NEW YORK Times: Now, If ever, the
Republicans Of the North should demon.
strate their sincerity; nay, humanity. These
blacks have left their old homes because
they are bullet-riddled and blood .splashed
homes. They want to get where their citi-
zenship Is not an ofense and an affront. |
The Republican party has been unable to !
defend them in their citizenship, in thel
exercise Of the rights and duties whereof |
they have thus far had little more than |
blows. Let that party now say to them
through its National Committee: /" We will /
make good and secure your citizenship; we |
Will raise money enough to enable you to /
aietr1oute yourselves upon new soil, upon |
which you shall mature to the manifest self.
build comfortable homes, and
cultivate farms. You are good lab0rers, you
bring your families rs your anchors, you
an render valuable political as well as in
iustrial service" This win be practical
