Another snake story.

We have another snake story, which
will please the Local of the Hunterolon
Democrat, who hasn't been able to Sc
cure full supply, owing as he says to
:" the inclemency of the weather. Mr..
David Holcombe, of West Amwell, re-
ports that he recently saw snake of
enormous size, on the left hand side of
the York road, about half mile from
this city. The place where it was seen
was in swampy piece of ground, filed
with bushes, &c. The snake lay with its
body on the ground and its head upon a
log when Mr.. II. first saw it. The snake
be declares was fully ten feet long and its
body in its largest part five or six inches
in diameter. 1t made big swaying Of
bushes in getting away. The snake was
no more scared than Mr.. H., who says
that the sight of so enormous reptile,
started him for home quiet suddenly. He
has no desire to meet such q reptile alone.
A similar snake has also been seen by Mr..
John Carmody, and also by Mr.. Samuel
Young, of this city.

WIN. L. Lacey, Esq, OF Poughkcep-
sic, N. Y, gave THE RECORD office call
yesterday. Mr.. Lacey was at one time
roller boy in Lambertville for the present
publisher of THE RECORD. He went to
the war, and subsequently became the cd
itor and publisher OF paper at Armenia,
N. Y. In 1880 he began the practice Of
the law, which he is still engaged in. 1t
is to be confessed that there ie something
of fall from the editorial chair TO the
lawyers office, but there is more money,
we presume, in the practice of law, than
in publishing a county paper. We are
glad to know that be Is successful in his
profession.

The Ladies' Have the Floor.


Those who attend the Pennington Fair
next month will find many changes for
the better. For instance, that long line
Of carriages that we have been used to
seeing in the fancy building will not be in
their accustomed place this year. All
that room Is TO be given to the ladies Of
Hunteraon for the big display of fancy
articles they are going to make. The
wagons will have tent 10 themselves.
That is right. There never was any good
excuse for their taking up SO much valu-
able space and standing there IN every
body's way. The officers Of the Society
are ladies' men and they are going to see
that the ladies have their rights. We may
expect to find that big building filled from

DIR. F. w. Larson, of this city,
showed us recently piece of cherry
coffin, about a foot square, which had
been in grave over SO years, aud which
had been remarkably well preserved,
while all the rest of the coffin had entirely
disappeared. The only apparent reason
for the preservation of this piece was the
presence of lot of brass round headed
lacks, which had been driven into the
face of the coffin in such way as TO form
the initials of its occupants name. =
Around the lacks the wood is smooth,
while an inch or two away 1t is rough
and time eaten.

Base Ball.
The game of base ball at Doylestown,
last Thursday, was largely attended from
this city. They have peculiar ideas of
bali playing in Doylestown. One idiot
claimed the right to withhold the ball
from a fielder while one Of his home club
was making home run, and the umpire
decided man out who lay on the base
before he was touched. These are speci
mems OF the DoyIestown style.
The score Is as follows:

and when I asked him for II he refused to

him and almost succeeded when he held
II with both hands, so was unable to get
It from him, as everybody who witnessed
the affair can testify, among them Consta-
BILE Smith, who remarked to me that Yost
knew better. So that It was mean act
on the part OF Mr.. Yost to hold the ball,
and as umpire, think Mr.. Fries should
know more than TO allow the run made TO
count, as the rule is very plain on this
point, nor should such be countenanced
by an honest, competent umpire. AS for
the Inteliigencer, nothing but mean

sensations. Why not publish the whole
affair or did the Lte,Mgencer forget
that during the third inning, went to
