BEATEN BY A HAIR.
Hannibal HamIin's First Try For h
United States Senate.


When Hannibal Hamlin was speaker
of the Maine house of representatives,
away back in the forties of the last
century, there was In that body a GER
tain gentleman of faultless attire,
pleasing manners, good address ard
some reputation, but he had n foible.
His hair was very thin, and he was
highly sensitive in regard to 1t.
To hide his approaching badness he
had a habit of carefully stroking with
bandoline or other preparation each
particular hair in Its place. One day
while in the chair as speaker Mr.. Ham
hin, in the innocence of q good and
joke loving nature, sent for this gen.
tleman and, looking fxedly at his
smooth and polished pate, said with n
chuckle:
BLANK, old fellow, ! just wanted to
tell you that you've got n Of the
hairs Of your head crossed over the
other
"You insult me, sir! You insult MEL
replied The member, with unexpected
and altogether unnecessary indigna-
ton, and then, refusing to listen either
to reason or explanation, he left the
speakers desk and returned to his seat.
When Mr.. Hamlin became a candi-
date for the United States senate this
gentleman was a member of the upper
house of the Maine legislature. AL
Though a member of the same party
and only one more vote was needed to
secure Mr.. Hamlin's election, he posi-
lively refused TO vote for the man by
whom he believed he had been insulted.
He was defeated for a seat in the
senate-by a hair, but when the next
vacancy occurred he was elected

at the back Of its neck (which is kept out by
movable ribs, something like those Of an UNI
brella) whenever it is excited, and is said new
er to strike without dilating its hood.
1t raises the head and about one-thrd of
the body from the ground, gliding along upon
the remaining twothirds, and, in this respect,
acts very differently from most snakes.
;, Inc elevation of so much of the body and
the movement In readiness to strike has been
taken advantage of by the socalled snake
charmers to make these creatures dance 1t
realy Is only posing strike, and following
the finger or arm of the man nearest to it.
The cobra di capello often frequents houses
and old walls, and they. are frequently found
about hen-houses, for they are very fond of
eggs, which they swallow whole.
Their own eggs are often found in the cram
MES of such places (for they are what are call
ed ovlparous serpents, or producing their
young from eggs).
Their eggs are generally about twenty III
number and the size Of those of pigeon
with white, tough, leathery skin.
AS might be supposed, there are many other
kinds of snakes in India besides the cobra,
and of all sizes.
There is most deadly little reptile, which
makes very loud hiss; is very thick for its
length, and prettily marked. This is called
the Echis Carinata, and is an exceedingly bad
tempered little fellow, not much disposed to
move out OF anybody's way, as most of the
snakes are when they have their choice.
Then there is the Daboias Eegans, just as
vicious and much larger, and the bites of
either of these are almost necessarily fatal.
There are many others, which we will not
mention.
Iti s supposed that in India one in every
ten thousand Of the population of that i'm
mense and densely-populated country is killed
by snakebite every year. As the whole popu-
lation is stated TO be about one hundred and
eighty million, any lad may make the calcula.
ton for himself.
An enormous number of domestic cattle are
also killed by snake-bite every year So seri-
Gus matter is it that a large sum is annually
paid out by the Indian Government in bounty
or reward for killing noxious reptiles; and
yet, so rapidly do they increase, the mortality
resulting from their bites remains about the
same.
This result is partly due to the prejudices
of the people themselves; for many pious Hin
doos will never kill cobra which has once
taken up its abode in their house or garden,
and are rather inclined to propitiate the ser
pent by offerings Of milk. of which they, like
