ON THE VENOM OF SERPENTS
BY J. OILMAN, LL. D. •
ere is much in the history and habits
of the reptile tribes, however repulsive
they may be in appearance, that is very in
teresting. During a sojourn of two or
three months in the interior of Arkansas,
which appears to me to be the paradise of
reptiles, I paid some attention to that
branch of natural history called ophiology.
I found four distinct varieties of rattle—
snakes, (croialus,) of which the Crotalus
Horridus and Crotalus Kirtlandii are by far
the most numerous. The former is the
largest serpent in North America..—
The family of moccasin snakes (Collumber)'
is also quite numerous, there being not less
than ten varieties, most of which are quite
asvenomous as the rattlesnake. By dissect
ing great numbers of different species, I
learned that the anatomical structure of
the poisoning apparatus is similar in all
the different varieties of venomous serpents
It consists of a strong frame work of bone,
with its appropriate muscles in the upper
part of the head, resembling, frid being in
fact a pair of jaws, but externally 'to the
jaws proper, and much stronger. To these
is attached by a gingly-moid
. articulation,
one or more moveable fangs on each side,
just at the verge of the mouth, capab!e of
being erected at pleasure. The fangs are
very hard, sharp and crooked, like the
claws of a cat, and hooked backward, with
a hollow from the base to near the point.
I have occasionally seen a thin slit of bone
divide this hollow, making two. At their
base is found a small sack, containing two
or three drops of venom, which resembles
thin honey. The sack is so connected with
the cavity of the fang during its erection,
that a slight upward pressure forces the
venom into the fang at its base, and it
makes its exit at a small slit or opening
near the point, with considerable force ;
thus it is carried to the bottom of any
wound made by the fang. Unless the fangs
are erected for battle, they lie concealed
in the upper part of the mouth, sunk be
tween the external and internal jaw-bones,
somewhat like a pen knife blade shut up
- in its handle, where they are covered by a
fold of membrane, which encloses them
like a sheath ; thiS is the vagina dentin.--
" There can be no doubt that these fangs are
frequently broken off or shed, as the head
grows broader, to make room for new ones
nearer the verge of the mouth; for, within
the vagina deptis of a very large crotalus
horridus, I found no less than five fangs on
each side—in all stages of formation—the
smallest in a half pulpy or cartilaginous
state, the,next something haider, the third
still more perfect, and so on to the main,
wellset, perfect fang. Each of these teeth
had a well defined cavity, like the main j
one. Three fangs on each side were fre
quently found in copper heads, vipers, and
others.
, The process of robbing serpents of their
venom is easily accomplished by the aid of
chloroform, a few drops of which stupifies
them. If, while they are under its influ
ence, they are carefully seized by the neck
and the vagina dentis held out of the way
by an assistant, with a pair of forceps, and
the fang be erected and gently pressed up
ward, the venom will be seen issuing from
the fang, and dropping from its point. It
may then be absorbed by a 'bit of sponge,
or caught in a.vial, or on the point of a
lancet. After robbing several serpents in
this manner, they were found, after two
days, to be as highly charged as ever with
venom of equal intensity with that first
taken.
During the process of robbing severe.]
species of serpents, I inoculated several
small but vigorous and perfect healthy veg
etables with the point of a lancet well
charged with venom. The next day they,
were withered and dead, looking as tho'
they had been scathed with lightning. In
attempting to preserve a few drops of ven
om, for future experiments, in a small vial
with two or three parts of alcohol, it was
found in a short time to have lost its ven
omous properties. But after mixing the
venom with equal ammonia, or spirits tur
pentine, oil of peppermint, or of cinnamon,
or of cloves, or with nitric or sulphuric
acid, it still seemed to act with undimin
ished energy. It is best preserved, how
ever, for future use by trituration with re
fined sugar or sugar of milk. . .
A very fine, large cotton-mouth snake,
being captured by putting a shoe-string
around him, became excessively ferocious,
striking at even the crack of a small riding
whip. Finding himself a prisoner, with
out hope of escape, lie turned his deadly
weapons on his own body, striking repeat
edly ids well charged fangs deeply into
his flesh. Notwithstanding this, he was
put in a small basket and carried forward.
In one hour after he was found dead,
and no amount of irritation could excite
the least indication of life. Four hours
after, while removing the skin, for preser
vatipn, the blood oozed slowly from the
vessels in a dissolved state. No violence
was done to his snakeship, except what he
did himself. •
Another moccasin, shot by a pistol about
two inches back of the head, and skinned
immediately, gave evidence of Vitality four
hours after being flayed, by Writhing the
body whenever it was irritated by a seal-
A large rattlesnake, beheaded instantly
with a hoe, would, an hour and a half after
strike at any thing that pinched its tail.—
Of several persons whp were testing their
firmness of nerve by trying to hold the
hand steady while the serpent struck at it,
not one could be found whose band would
not recoil in spite of -his resolution; and
one man, a great bully, by-the-by, was
struck on the naked throat with considera-
Lk 11,1,e by ale neatness trunk of the ser
pent, and staggered back, fainted and fell,
from terror. Mr. Stewart; of Mississippi,
tells me he, once -witnesseda similar scene.
An old hunter shot a rattlesnake's head
off, and reloading his gun and standing
some time, he stooped to pull off the rattles
and the bloody but headless trunk of the
snake struck him in the temple, and he
fainted and fell down with terror.
Seven venomous serpents belonging to
five different species, were made to frater
nize and dwell amicably in one den. A
beautiful pair of long-bodied speckled
snakes, known as king-snakes, found to be
fangless, and consequently without venom,
were duly installed as members of the fam
ily. Some uneasiness was perceivable
among the older members, but no attempt
was made to destroy the intruders, though
they might have been killed instanter.—
The next morning four of the venomous
serpents were found to have been destroy
ed by the king-snakes, and one was still
within their coil, and the remaining ones
would make no effort at self-defense. A
large rattlesnake seemed stupid and indif
ferent to his fate. He could not be made
to threaten or give utrning even with his
rattles. The smallest king-snake was af
terward inoculated with the poison of one
of•the serpents lie had destroyed, and died
-immediately after—thus evincing that they
must have exercised some power beside
physical force to overcome their fellow
creatures.
In short, the results of a great number
of experiments performed with the venom
of a great variety of serpents, seem to lead
to the following conclusions:
1. That the venom of all serpents acts
as a poison in a similar manner. •
2. That the venom of some varieties is
far more active than that of others.
3. That a variety of the colluber, known
as the cotton-mouth is the most, venomous
serpent in Arkansas.
4. That the venom of serpents destroys
all forms of organized life, vegetable as
well as animal.
5. That alcohol, if brought into contact
with the venom, is, to a certain extent, an
antidote.
6. That serpents do possess the power
of fascinating small animals, and that this
power is identical with mesmerism.
7. That the blood of small animals, de
stroyed by the venom of serpents, bears a
close resemblance to that of animals de
stroyed by lightning or hydrocyanic acid ;
it loses its power of coagulation and can
not be long kept from putrefaction.—St.

WIFE LOST AS SOON AS FOUND-INCI
DENT ON THE G. W. RAILROAD.-A corres
pondent of the Port Huron Corarnercia
communicates the following to that jour
nal :
At the time and place of meeting the
train of cars, oftentimes amusing incidents
occur. I must record one of the most lu
dicrous, and at the same time awkward af
fairs. In passing up to the Ingersoll sta
tion, there was a great crowd of people
who had escorted a couple who had been
joined in the bonds of wedlock. All were
pleasant as the morning sun. The bag
gage had been checked for Detroit, where
they were destined for their bridal trip.—
The couple were seated in the cars, which
only tarry a few moments, when the bride
imam, at her suggestion, stepped out to
get some cakes. While making change
the whistle blew, and both trains started.
He jumped on and passed out, and after
very leisurely stowing away the cakes in
his pocket, he started forward to hunt his
bride. He looked all through the train
without finding her, and then accosted the

THE PROPHET WARRIOR OF THE
CAUCASUS.
"God is Great ! Mahommed is his first
Prophet; and Schamyl is his second."—
Such is the rallying shout of. the followers
of the famous Schamyl, the Twain and Sul
tan of the Eastern Caucasus, who since
the year 1834 has baffled the power of
Russia, and now attracts the attention of
the greatest nations of Europe as a worthy
ally against the pretensions of the great
Northern Autocrat. Schamyl is a native
of Himri, in Avaria, and was born in 1797.
It is said that from his earliest childhood,
his silent earnest ways, intense determina
tion and love. of knowledge, distingitished
him among his fellows. Spactan habits and
a strong will compensated the natural de
fects of a delicate physical organization.—
He would shut himself up for weeks in
shame and rage, if defeated in the games
of the youth of Daghestan; and - having
once been set upon and severely wounded
by a number of his rivals, the
that, he brought himself to tLe.,,,;" of
death rather than reveal what he con• r
ed his disgrace.
The following description is given of his
person and manner, by Bodenstedt, in his
history of "The people of the Caucasus,
and their war of freedom against the Rus
sians :"
ocnamyt is of middle stature, has fair
hair, grey eyes, overshadowed by thick,
well-marked eyebrows, a regular well-form
ed nose, and a small mouth. A peculiar
fairnes and delicacy of skin distinguishes
his countenance from that of his fellow
countrymen, and his feet and hands are
singularly well shaped. The apparent im
movability of his arms in walkingindicates
the determination of his character. His
manner is noble and dignified. Perfectly
master of himself, he exercises a silent in
fluence over all who may come in contact
with him. A stern impassivity, which is
undisturbed even in moments of the great
est danger, is his characteristic expression.
A condemnation to death falls from his
lips with the same calmness as he shows
in conferring on a brave Murid the sabre
of honor won in some sanguinary fight.—
With traitors or other offenders, whose
death he has once determined upon, he
converses without manifesting a shade of
angry or vengeful feeiing. He regards
himself as simply the instrument in the
hands of a higher power, and holds, with
the Sufis, that all his thoughts and
deciards are the immediate inspiration of
God. His eloquence is as fiery and per
suasive as his ordinary manner is calm and
commanding. • "Flames sparkle from his
eyes and flowers are scattered from his
lips," said Bersek Bey, with whom Scha
myl lived a few days after the taking of
Akhulgo, when he resided for a time among
the chiefs of the Dschigde and Übiche
tribes, in the hope of raising the Western
Caucasians against the Russians.
Schamyl did not obtain his present posi
tion without great difficulty. He found
the people of the Caucasus much divided,
and only obtained the. ascendency by
the most indomitable energy and deter
mined enduring courage.: To these quali
ties he unites military and administrative
abilities of the highest order. A writer
in the April number of the Westminster
Review, thus sums up his: achievements.—
Of a mob of scattered tribes, divided by
innumerable feuds, he has made a nation
capable of the most complete unity of ac
tion, and animated by one faith; and his
genius as a law-giver, is as pre-eminent as
his religious enthusiasm. With a strong
hand he has swept away all the old bound
aries of race and tribe, however consecra
ed by tradition, and has completely reor
ganized the country over which he rules.
A stern ,and even-handed justice char
acterizes all Schamyl's judgments, and he
would have long since fallen a victim to
the blood-fiends thus excited, but for the
watchful devotion of his body-guard, the
Murtosigators, who constantly surround
him in•public. The guard is composed of
a selection from Murids, and only the hot
test enthusiasts are chosen for the post
which is considered among the Caucasians
to be in the highest degree honorable. The_
prophet puts the most implicit confidence
in them, and they, on the other hand, re
nounce every tie,' and place their lives in
his hand. They live frugally, carry out
the law to the 'very letter, wear peculiar
insignia and receive regular pay, and a
share of the spoils, In time of peace they
are Schamyl's apostles, and considerable
sums are placed at their disposal for the
carrying out of their propaganda. They al
so form an efficient police. In war they
constitute the heart of Schamyl's troops
and the terror of the Russians, who have
never yet succeeded in taking one of them
alive.
Schamyl's influence has been greatly
strengthened among the Caucasians by the
remarkable preservation of his life on sev
eral occasions when escape appeared im
possible. His safety has been-ascribed to
the miraculous intervention of Allah, and
Schamyl hasithought it prudent not to de-

B On B— street, in the beautiful
city of C—, there was residing, at the
latest accounts, a strangely matched con
nubial pair. The woman, although good
looking, and possessing a skin of almost
snowy whiteness, affords unmistakable evi
dence that she "has not loved lightly," for
her "liege lord" is a full-blooded African,
as black as the Ikev. Mr. Ward, upon whose
exterior we are told that charcoal would
"make a white mark." It is not strange
that a pair so assorted should meet with
occasional "lights and shades," the most
remarkable of which consist in the progeny,

A CHILD FASCINATED BY A SN 4 E.—
The editor of the St. Louis Herald relates
an instance of a child being fascinated by a
black snake, seven feet six inches long,
and vouches for the truth of the story.—
The child, it is said, was a little' daUghter
of a man named O'Mars, about 13 y4rs of
age, residing in Franklin county, Mo.—
About nine months ago, the parents i)bser-
ved the child to be pining away, and be
coming very weak and pale, without appa
rent cause. By the time winter had set
in, she was a mere skeleton, but began to
revive, with the cold weather. As spoil as
spring arrived, hoWever, she could not be
prevailed upon to eat any victuals in her
father's house, but would take a piece of
bread and butter, or piece of meat, and go
out to the edge of the creek to eat it.—
The family noticed her regularly, t,lways
going precisely to the same place, Ind in
variably complaining of being hungry af
ter her 'return, when, if more victuals
would be given her, she would againlreturn
to the creek, as: they thought, to eat. Fi
