Presentiment Of Death.

The subject ofpresentiment concern
ing death and fatality in families
spoken OF in Hancock's case recalls
some sad points in the Bayard his
tory. 1t is SAID that Miss Bayard
wrote a letterindicating her approach
ing death. There are now in Wash
lngton many old naval officers who
remember the interesting circumstance
attending the death OF Miss Bayard's
cousin, Charles c. Bayard, at Mount
Vesuvius. He was the favorite O OF
Richard Bayard. of Philadelphia,
whose father and Secretary Bayard's
father were brothers. In l843, while
On board the United States ship Con-
gress, i'll company with several young
friends from on board, he made the
ascent OF Mount Vesuvius. 1t was
the same Congress that went down in
Hampton Roads before the Merrimac,
and in the party vas the same Joseph
Smith, who as commander OF the Con-
gress had his head taken off by a cam
o ball ard OF whom his father said,
when he heard that the Congress was
taken: ''Then Joe is dead" In the
party also was Lehman B. Ashmead,
OF Philadelphia, with whom young
Bayard afterward went to Jerusalem
to visit the Holy Sepulcher. While
there they both had tattooed
on their arms by an old dragoman
the heraldic.arms of Jerusalem, with
the date OF their visit. In the case OF
young Bayard the tattooed cross de-
veloped virulent features, fester-d and
finally he became sick and the arm be-
came greatly swollen. Hecontinually
declared that he would die and even
after it appeared to grow entirely we'll
he was in the habit Of saying to Mr..
Ashmead and other friends: "This
arm will be the death of me yet" Ten
years afterward young Bayard left
for a cruise in the Columbia, as flag
lieutenant OF Commander Morris. Be
fore leaving he took a sad farewell OF
all his friends here and declared to
n and all that "they would never
see HIM again." He was very detected
and respondent. Ten years to a day
from his previous visit, in company
with young Carroll Tucker, OF Mary
land, and a few friends, the Columbia
being then a Naples, he made the as
cent OF Vesuvius during an eruption.
With him were Rear Admiral Simpson
and Rear Admiral Colhoun, who were
then lieutenants. He had the arm OF
a Prussian army officer. He was
quito gay. Just near the Hermit
age, where he had halted ten years
before, the party stopped, finding it
would be dangerous to 60 ear the
crater. AS they were turning a mass
OF lava and rock struck young Bayard
on the arm where he had been tat.
tooed, cutting it fearfully and obliter.
ating the cross, and before the party
could reach the foot OF the volcano he
died. His mother is still living, up.
ward OF ninety years of age. His body
is buried near the foot OF Vesuvius.-

TrOtting Out Their Snake StO-
RIGS.
the Lewiston (Me.) Journal.

w
Speaking Of the venomous snake
which caused the horrible death Of the
little boy who lived scar Grand Falls,
a short time since, a Lewiston man
vouches for the truth OF q similar oc-
currence in the eastern part OF this
state, which came under his observa.
ton not long ago. A young fellow
who was a noted sportsman, always
running about the woods, cunning and
fishing, m day about a month since
took his fishing rod and started for a
well known trout brook, where he was
won't to make his headquarters dur,
ing the fishing season. He tells the
story himself, that about noon, the
day being warm, he became thirsty.
and stretched himself out on the bank
Of the trout brook, and began drink
ing a cool drausht from a clear pool
just below asmall waterfall. Howthe
misfortune happened he A hardly
explain, but when in the very act OF
drinking he sucked into his stomach a
large water snake.
1t Was with difficulty that he crawl
ed home and obtained assistance OF
physicians. His symptoms grew
alarmingly serious soon after medical
aid was summoned. The doctors did
everything in their power to rid him OF
this living death, but all their efforts
only resulted in making the young
mans condition nor critical. The
snake nearly choked the man to death
several times by crawling back and
forth in his throat. The young man
was nearly dead, when his friends adj.
vised him as n last resort to go back
to the trout brook, lie down near the
water and perhaps the gurgling OF the
water brook might entice the water
snake out OF his stomach back to his
native haunts. The victim ofthis aw-
full calamity thought the experiment
only a foolish chance for life, but he
consented to try it. He was carried
to the brook, and placed directly be.
leath a waterfall, where the stream
rushed dowE a steep, rocky descent,
making noise enough to awaken adoz-
en- snakes. He hadn't remained by
/ the water long, before hefelt q motion
of something crawling in his stomach
Gradually the sensation came higher
and higher, and the viper began slowly
crawling up the poor man s throat
The water had gained the victory, 10,
the shiny reptile stuck it's head out o
the mans mouth, saw the water rush
ing past and leaped into the brook
An attempt was made to capture th'
water snake, but if was unsuccessful
The man lives to day to tell the story
