A SNAKE STORY.
We are informed that on New Years day a
woman in the neighborhood of Cherokee Ford,
killed black snake that measured four feet
in length. The snake was as 1.-the and active
as in May or June, and on account of the
mild weather, evidently had not gone into
winter quarters.
PECULIAR HEN.
Master Flynn Dixon is the the possessor Of
hen which is quite the opposite Of the old
darkey's which ''laid two eggs every day and
on Sundays three" Flynn's lays only one
egg day, and on alternate days the egg is
but little larger than that of partridge,
while the others are of the usual size
CHARGED WITH ARSON.
Parks Cooper and John Campbell, both col
ored, were committed to Jail last week, charged
with the burning of Capt. Allen Jones'
dwelling house in Rock Hill, last September.
The arrests were made on the testimony of
William Saunders, colored, who gave as the
reason for burning the house that the guns of
the Catawba Rifles were stored in it.
PARDONED.
On Tuesday of last week, Governor Simpson
granted pardon to Adam Guy, colored, con-
victed of grand larceny at the last term of
the Circuit Court of York county. After the
committal of Guy to the penitentiary, he was
hired out to man in Laurens county to work
on farm, and from him he made his escape,
returning to York, but afterwards surrender
ed himself. The pardon was granted in order
to allow him to appear as witness in pend
ing case. ...-....... ,s..
THE HESslAN FLY.
Our Rock Hill correspondent reports sad
havoc with wheat and oat crops in that sec
tion of the county, caused by the Hessian fly.
Our Chester correspondent also makes SINH
lar report from that county. We learn that
the fly is also very destructive to the crops in
the Bullock's creek or southwestern part of
the county. Our informant, Mr.. Guy, of
Bullock's creek, says they appear in myriads,
and in point of numbers may be estimated by
millions. They are described as being a little
larger than the common white weevl. We
learn that the fly is also working serious in
jury to the crops in Union county. Their
presence is attributed to the unusually warm
weather of the present winter. .r
