new SwINDLE-We learn that the
swindlers have invented new dodge
which they are practising in some
parts of the country. A farmer is
called upon by well dressed man OF
fine presence, who proposes to sell
him fine cabinet organ and give at
the same time a due bill for dry
goods to be delivered at the pur-
chaser's order and to be of his select
ton at the same time with the instru-
ment The price of the instrument
is Sis and the agent informs his
victim that it was his custom to col
lect the amount in advance; that
several people in the neighborhood
had complied with his terms and
paid in advance; and ifhe would do so
the organ and goods would all be de-
livered at the same time. To these
conditions the unsuspecting farmer
acceeds and pays the cash and after
wards he gricves for an $l1S organ
and likewise in merchandise

A LIVE SNAKE.-Wm. Griffith and
H. N. Chips caught a snake three
feet long in the water in "Bloody
Rum" Clinton District, one day last
week. His snakeship was as lively
as cricket when caught, but in
few minutes after being taken out of
the water, became as stiff as poker.
The boys put him away tenderly,an
will keep him until Spring, when if
he becomes too lively they will dis
patch him beyond hope of resurrec-
ton. The above differs from the u.s.
ual snake story, because it is true.
The most elegant Xmas presents
