WHAT WAS NEVER SEEM BEFORE
There is now in the vaults of the
Treasury Department at Washing
ton larger amount of gold than
was ever known to be in one place
in The history OF modern times, and
probably more than could be au-
thenticated as existing in a single
treasury at any time before in the
world. There is now about Sl72,-
600. 600 of gold coin and bullion, ex,
elusive of some 500, 100000 il sill
yer, while the bank of England has
only about S75.000,000 in gold
What is more singular is that it
stsys in the vaults. no matter what
the demand recently, for as fast as
i, is paid out it returns, showing that
as long as confidence is maintained
il is not fsvorite currency.

q SNAKE WITH TWENTY SIX
EYES.

Our correspondent, while going
along the river road, on the east-side
of the Altamaha river, a short time
since, encountered a species Of snake
that is just little ahead of anything
10 the way of snakes we ever heard
of. This snake was about three feet
long, and several inches around the
body, and, at first appearance, had
but one tail, but what appeared very
strange, its head Sloped to point
and had twenty six eyes-thirteen
on each side of it's head. The snake
got it's back up and prepared for
battle. 1t was attacked with pine
knots and fence rails, and before the
battle closed, the snake exhibited
thirteen tongues, sixty six eyes, ten
tails and twelve heads. Wayne, the
county in which this snake was
killed, is fairly entitled to the belt.
Prohibition is in full force there, and
