entirely enlightened until we agree
upon some ratio of money to the

done even as the greenbacks cir

to issue that amount of green

The small town of Werda, in the king
dom of Dahomey, is celebrated for its
temple of serpents, n long building in
which the priests keep upwards of 1000
serpents of all sizes, which they feed
with birds and frogs brought to them as
offerings by the natives. These serpents.
many Of them of enormous size, may be
seen hanging from the beams across the
ceiling, with their heads hanging down
ward and in all sorts of strange contor-
tons. 1t often happens that some of
these serpents make their way out of the
temple Into the town, and the priests
have great difficulty in c~oaxing them
back. To kill a serpent Intentionally is
a crime punishable by death, and if a
European were to kill one the authority
of the king would scarcely suffice to
save him. Many of the monsters in the
Serpent Temple are large enough TO
enfold a large oxin their coils. IS st. Louis

break occurred last night in the Point

river above to Bayou La Fourche below,
embracing 700 square miles. No news
has been received from the interior Of
