Alabama Snake Storiss.

A correspondent in Winston county
sends the following: Last week two
young men were hshiug in a mill pond
near here. Approaching an old log
which wat partly in the water, they dis
covered a large number Of very small
snakes summing themselves on the log
As they started to advance a little near
er the log, Urge water snake came out
Of the pond. and, put ing its head on the
end Of the log. opened It's mourn yer,
wide, at the same time mixing a low his
sing sound. Instantly there was com.
motion among the little snakes, and as
rapidIy as possibly they darted into the
open mouth Of the big reptile and disap-
pearsd down ITS throat The young men
counted forty-scycn small snakes as they
entered the open mouth Of the large one.
When all were safely inside, the mother
snake, swollen to unusual size, disap-
pc,red in the water
From the Pincy foods down in Bib
county comes the following. Several
turner's in our neighborhood have re-
Gently lost all their pigs Mr. Brown
lost about twenty small pigs and could
find no trace of them. They would 90
into the woods in the morning aud in the
evening the sows would return without
them. One day last week Mr. Brown
aud two Of his sons heard pig s4ucal
in the woods near the house, and they
hurried out to see what was the matter
They found an immense black snake Of
the variety known as tue chicken snake
in the act of swallowing a live pig which
was nearly two weeks old. The big rep
tile had already swallowed four pigs and
was now swallowing the fifth one. Tie
snake was killed at once and when its
stomach was cut open the four pigs came
out alive. but very weak and sick The
snake measured twenty-three inches in
circumference.
Another chicken snake story comes
from Randolph county Near Blake,
Ferry a large chicken snake drove a set
ting hen from her nest and swallowed
.he fourteen eggs. Two days later the
snake was killed, its stomach opened,
and twelve little chicks stepped out
Two of the eggs failed to hatch
The best story yet received is from
Blouut county One day during the
summer, while several men were fishing
in a small creek, they saw black snake
start up a tree toward small bird S nest.
The two parent birds discovered the rep
tile as it was slowly creeping along a
limb toward the nest whore lay then
young Instantly the two birds few at
the snake, and with angry chipping tie
gan to pick vigorously at its eyes. In i
few moments the snake fell to the ground
writing in great pain The fishermen
killed it, and found that the little bird:
had picked out both tie snakes eyes.
and thereby saved their young from
harm. Birmingham Age.

address the committee upon tho subject.
The proposition did not seem TO meet
with favor at the hands OF tho majority,
and some OF the Democratic members took
the ground that any neediul Information
might be supplied to the committee by
means OF printed briefs or arguments. Mr..
Breckenridge, OF Arkansas, made spirited
speech against the proposition.
Mr.. Reed, however, characterized such
proceeding ms humbuggery, and declared
that no information OF value could be i'm

consideration OF tho hill, and not 90 cut
off information easily obtainable, which
would enable the members TO act intelli-
gently and without destroying vast inter

obliged to 70 through the details of the
bill on their own account aud with very
inadequate means OF acquiring knowledge
OF the probable effect OF the proposed
changes in tho tariff laws.
