From the Aqtg4stG (Ga.) Chronicle.
Although the season for big snake sto-
ries has not yet arrived, a thrilling en-
counter with nest of writhing reptiles
occurred recently on the first level OF
The canal, in which young man was bit
ten on the thigh, and which would in all
probability have resulted fatally bad it
not been for his CELEBRITY in procuring the
services of physician. IL would seem
hard to give credence to the story, but IL
is true, nevertheless, and well authenti-
Gated. We give the account substantial
! ly as told by the young man himself:
IL being pleasant afternoon, and one
we'll suited for the purpose, be and a
young lady friend decided to take a cruise
on the ''raging canaWl," and accordingly
embarked in a trim little craft. Their
trip was an enjoyable one until after
passing the high bridge. Toe south bank
Of the canal, few hundred yards above
this bridge, as is we'll known, is covered
with dense growth Of bushes and water
rushes. Here, through careless stroke,
the boat shot into the mass OF weeds, the
prov sliding we'll upon the bank. AT this
junctuTe Kissing was heard, and to
the young couple the air and PUSHES SEEM
ed iuH OF snakes; all appeared badly
frightened, and broke away from the boat,
with the exception Of a six-foOt monster,
which. in his endeaYOrs to escape, landed
square in the lap OF the Oarsman. The
young fellow attempted TO rid himself OF
bis obnoxious companion, when the rep
tile instantly buried it's fangs into his
thigh. IL slid of into the bottom OF the
boat at once, however, and the young
man sprang into the water, and made for
the bank with all possible speed. Al the
first appearance Of the mOceasins the
young lady screamed and jumped out up
on the shore, thus placing herself beyond
the reach OF danger. Several men had by
this time arrived upon the scene, and by
their advice the young fellow repaired i'm

the exception OF irritation around the
wound, be had recovered entirely, and
was out on the streets as usual. seven
snakes were counted. and three Of them
were instantly dispatched by the men,
but IL was only after considerable trouble
that the moccasin in the boat was killed.
He bad crawled beneath one OF the lock-
eTs, aud for some time resisted all at
tempts TO get him out.
