BY A CANADIAN SETTLER, I was brought; up near the Canadian line in -Vermont. My father owned a large farm, though he was an iron worker by trade. I think he made some of the. best rifles ever used. Not far from his farm was quite a lake; we used to enjoy our selves at fishing and sailing; for we had , one of the best sail-boats ; ever put into fresh water. We knew there were plenty of snakes about the lake—especially one part of it—a wide piece of flats, where the water lay most of the year, and where the tall grass and reeds grew thickly. It was a sort of bay, making up into a cove on the opposite from the farm. We had seen some large snakes in the water there, and I had tried to shoot them as they swam with their heads up, though I never hap pened to get one of them in that way. I am sure I hit some of them, but they man aged to get away into the grass, and I had no desire to follow them, especially into such a place. Most of those that I saw were the common black water snakes, but they were not all alike. Some of the largest ones had a light colored ring round the neck, and I was told, by those who knew, that these latter were by far the strongest and most dangerous. . However, I was destined soon to have my eyes opened. One afternoon I saw a flock of black ducks fly over the house, and I was sure they lighted on the lake; so I seized my double-barreled gun and ammunition, and started off. When I reached the landing, I saw the ducks away off by the opposite shore. I at once out some green boughs with my knife, and having rigged up the bows of a small flat botomed we kept on purpose for such work, I jumped in, and started off. There was a hole in the stern through which we could iput the oar, and.thus scull the boat with out sitting up in sight; so from where the ducks were my contrivance had the appear ance of only a simple mass of boughs float ing along upon the water. I had got near enough for a shot, and had drawn in the scull, and was in the act of taking up iny gun, when the ducks started up. As quickly as:possible I drew one hammer and let drive. I hit two of them, but they didn’t fall'into the water. They fluttered along until they fell among the tall grass up in the eove. The water Was low, and the place was dry where they were. I pulled up as I far as I could, and got out and waded up. I knew very near where one of the ducks had fallen, and, very soon had my eye on it. As 1 ran up to take it, I saw the head of a black snake pop out and catch it by the wing. I saw only the head and neck of the reptile, and had no idea how large a one it was, or, if I had no idea of fearing such a thing. So I just run up and snatched the bird away. I had left my gun in the boat, and had nothing to kill the ehap with; but as I took the duck, I just put my foot upon the thief’s neck. The ground was moist and slimy, and as the snake had his body braced among the roots of the stout reeds, he took his head out from under my foot about as quick as a man could comfortably think. I thought I’d run hack to my boat and get my gun, and try to kill this fellow; and I had just turned for that purpose, when 1 felt some thing strike my leg; as though somebody had thrown a rope around it. I looked down, and found that the snake had tafl?en a turn around my left leg with his tail, and was in the act ‘of clearing away his body from the grass. I dropped the duck and gave a smart kick, but that didn’t loosen him; so I tried to put my right foot upon him, and thus draw my left leg away; but 1 might as well have tried to put my foot on to a streak of lightning! And hadn’t I been deceived 1 I had forgotten the proportionate size of the head of this species of black snake. I had expected to see a snake ifour or five feet long, but instead of that, he was nearly eight feet and a half ! I tell ye; I looked ten ways for Sunday about that time. Still, I hadn’t yet any great fear, for I supposed that yvben I put my hands on him I oould easily take him off, for I was pretty strong in the arms. In a few seconds he had his body all clear, and it was then that the first real thrill shot through me. There he held himself by the simple turn around my leg, and with his back arched in and ou,t, he brought his head just on a level with mine. I made a grab for him, but missed him, and then, as quick as you can snap your finger, he swept his head under my arm, clear around my body, and then straightened up and lookedjne in the face again. I gave another grab at him—and another, as quick as I eould, but he dodged me, in spite of all 1 eould do. I next felt the snake’s, body working its way up. The turn of the tail was turned to my thigh, and the coil around my stomach commenced to tighten. About this time I began to think there might be some serious work, and the quicker I took the snake off the better. So I just grasped him as hear the head as possible, by taking hold where he was around me^—for he couldn’t dodge that part you know—and tried to turn him off. But this only made it worse. The fellow had now drawn him self up so high, and stretched so, that he whipped another turn about me. His tail was now around my left thigh, and the rest of him turned twice around my body —one of them being just at the pit of my stomach, and the other one above it. All this had occupied just about one-half a minute from the time he first got the turn around my leg. The snake now had his head right around in front of my face, and he tried to make his way into my'mouth. What his intention was, 1 cannot surely tell, though I have always* believed that he knew he could strangle me in that way. lie struck me one blow in the mouth that hurt me considerably; and after that I got him by the neck, and there I meant to hold him—at least, so that he should not strike me again. But about this time another difficulty arose. The moment I grasped the snake by the neck, he commenced to tighten his folds about my body! It wasn’t over a few seconds before I discov erered that he’d soon squeeze the breath out of me in that way, and I determined to unwind him. He was in this way : The turn around the thigh was from left to right—then up between the legs to my right side, and around the back to my left side—and so on with the second turn— thus bringing his head up under my left arm. I had the snake now with the left hand, and my idea was to pass his head around my back until 1 eould reach it with my right, and so unwind him. I eould press the fellow’s head down under my arm, but to get it around so as to reach it with my right hand, I eould not! I tried —I put all my power into that one arm, but I eould not do it. I could get the head just about under my armpit; but here my strength was applied to a disadvantage. Until this moment I had not been really frightened. I had believed that I could unwind the serpent when I tried. I never dreamed.what power they had. Why— only think—as strong as I was then—and could not put that snake’s head around my back! I tried it until I knew that I could not do it, and then I gave it up. My next thought was of my jack-knife, but the lower eoil of the snake was directly over my pocket, and I could not get it. I now, for the first time, called out for help. I yelled' with all my might; and yet I knew the trial was next to useless, for no one eould easily gain the place where I was except by a boat. Yet I called out, hoping against hope. I grasped the snake by the body and pulled—l tried to break its neck. This plan presented itself with a gleam of promise ; but it amounted to nothing. I might as well have tried to break a rope by bending it forward or back ward ! A full minute had now passed from the time when I first tried to pass the snake’s head around my back. His body had become so elongated by his gradual pressure around my body, that he had room to carry his head aroundfln a free and symmetrical curve. lie had slipped from my grasp, and when I next caught him, I found that I was weaker than before ; I could not hold him! The excitement had prevented me from notic ing this until now. for a few minutes I was in a perfect frenzy. I leaped up and down —cried out as loud as I could—and grasped the snake with all my might.— But it availed me nothing. He slipped his head from my weakened hand, and made a blow at my face, striking me fairly upon the closed lips. This made me mad, and I gave the infernal thing another grasp with both hands, trying once more to twist his neck. The only result was, that I got another blow upon the mouth !. But the moment of need was at hand.— I felt the coils growing tighter and tighter around my body, and, my breath was get ting weak. A severe pain was beginning to result from the pressure, and 1 saw that the snake would soon have length enough for another turn, lie was drawn so tight ly, that the centre of his body was no big ger than his head ! The black skin was drawn to a tension that seemed its utmost, and yet I could tell by the working of the large hard scales upon the belly that he was drawing himself tighter still! •‘For God’s sake !” I gasped, stricken with absolute terror, “what shall I do?” The enemy for whom I had at first held so little thought, was killing me—killing me slowly, openly, and I had no help ! I, a stout, strong man, was being actually held at the deadly will of a black shake ! My breath was now short, faint, and quick, and I knew that I was growing .purple in the face! My hands and arms were swol len and my fingers were numbed! I had let go of the snake’s neck, and he now carried the upper part of his body in a graceful curve, his head vibrating from side to side with an undulating motion of extreme gracefulness. At length I staggered ! I was losing my strength rapidly, and the pain of my body ’ had become excruciating.. The snake’s skin where it was coiled about me was so tight that it'seemed almost trans parent. He had found me, or I had found him, in a state of hunger, his stomach free from food, and his muscular force unim paired. A second time I staggered, and objects began to swim before me. A dizzy sensation was in my head, a faintness at my heart, and a pain the most agonizing in my body ! The snake now had three feet of body free. He had drawn himself certainly three feet longer thair before. He darted his head under my right arm, and brought it up over my shoulder, and pressing his under jaw firmly down, there, he gave a sudden wind that made me groan with pain. Each moment was “ THAT COUNTRY IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS WHERE LABOR COMMANDS THE GREATEST REWARD, LANCASTER CITY, PA., TUESDAY MORNING, MAY 19, 1857. ! —each second a step an age of agony! nearer to death! My knife ? Oh ! if I could but reach it! Why not! Why not tear it out! My arms were free. Mercy! why had I Dot thought of this before—when my hands had some strength in them 1 Yet I would try it. I collected all my remaining pow er for the effort, and made the attempt. — My trowsers were of blue cotton stuff, and very strong—l eould not tear it! I thought of the stitches. They might not be so tenacious. I grasped the cloth upon the inside of my thigh, and gave my last atom of strength to the effort. The stitches started—they gave way ! This result gave me hope, and hope gave me power. — Another pull—with both hands—and the pocket was laid bare! With all the re maining force I eould command—with hope of life—of home—of everything I loved on earth in the effort—l caught the pocket upon the inside and bore down upon it. There was a cracking df the threads —a sound of tearing cloth—and—my knife was in my hands. I had yet sense enough to know that the smallest blade was the sharpest, and I opened it. With one quick nervous move ment I pressed the keen edge upon the tense skin, and drew it across. With a tearing snap the body parted, and the. snake fell to the ground in two pieces ! I staggered to the boat—l reached it, and there sank down. I knew nothing more ygtil I heard a voice name. I opened my eyes, and looked up. My father stood over me with terror depicted upon his countenance. I told him my story as best I eould. He went up and got the duck 1 had taken from the snake—the other one he could not find —and also brought along the two pieces I had made of my enemy. He told me.he had heard me cry out, and at once started off in the large boat after me, though it was a long while ere he saw my boat. I had lain there over half an hour when .he found me. When.- we reached home, |be snake was measured, and found to be eight feet and four inches in length ! It was a month before I fully recovered from the effects of that hugging, and to this day there is something in the very name of snake that sends a chill of horror to my heart! MARY MOORE. A I-LEASANT I.OVE STORY. CHAPTER I All my life long I had known Mary Moore. All my life I loved her. Our mothers were old playmates and first cousins. My first recollection is of a boy, in a red frock and morocco shoes, rocking a cradle in which reposed a sunny haired, blue-eyed baby, not quite a year old. That boy was myself Harry Church; that blue-eyed baby was Mary Moore. Later still, I see myself at the little school house, drawing my little chaise up to the door, that Mary might ride home. Many a heating have I gained on such oc casions, for other boys besides me liked her, and she, I fear, was something of a flirt, even in her pinafores. How elegantly she came tripping down the steps when I called her name ! how sweetly her blue eyes looked up at me ! how gaily rang out her merry laugh ! that fairy laugh ! No one but Mary could ever bring her heart so soon to her lips. I followed that laugh from the days of my childhood till 1 grew an awkward, blushing youth; I followed it through the heated noon of man hood ; and now, when the frosts of age are silvering my hair, and many children climb my knee and call me “father,” I find that the memories of youth are strong, and that, in gray hairs, I am following its mu sic still. When I was fifteen the first great sor row of my life came upon my heart. 1 was seut to school, and was obliged to part with Mary. We were not to see each other for three long years ! —This, to me, was like a sentence of death, for Mary was like life itself to me. But hearts are tough things after all. I left college in all the flush and vigor of my nineteenth year. I was no longer awkward and embarrassed. I bad grown into a tall, slender stripling, with a very good opinion of myself, both in general and particular. If I thought of Mary Moore, it was .to imagine how I would daz zle and bewilder her with my good looks and wonderful attainments—never thinking that she might dazzle and bewilder me still more. I was a coxcomb, I know; but as youth and good looks have fled, I trust I may be believed when I say that self-conceit has left me also. An advantageous proposal was made to me at this time, and, accepting it, I gave up all idea of a profession,.and prepared to go to the Indies. In my hurried visit home of two days, 1 saw nothing of Mary Moore. She had gone to a boarding school at some distance, and was not expected home till the following May. I uttered one sigh to the memory of my little blue eyed playmate, and then called myself “a man again.” “ In a year,” I thought, as the vehicle whirled away from our door—“ in a year, or three years at l the very, most, I will re turn, and if Mary is as pretty as she used to be, why then, perhaps, I may marry her.” And thus I settled the future of a young lady whom I had not seen for four years. I never thought of the possibility of her refusing me—never dreamed that she would not condescend to accept my offer. But now I know that, had Mary met me then, she would have despised me. Per haps, in the scented and affected student, she might have found plenty of sport; but as for loving me, or feeling the slightest interest in me, I should have perhaps found I was mistaken. India was my salvation, not merely be cause of my success, but because my la borious industry had counteracted the evil in my nature, and made me a better man. When at the end of three years I prepared to return, I said nothing of the reforma tion in myself which I knew had taken place. “ They loved me as I was,” I murmurd to myself, “and they shall find out for themselves whether I am better worth lov ing than formerly.” I packed up many a token from that land of romance and gold, for the friends I hoped to meet. The gift for Mary Moore I selected with a beating heart; it was a ring of rough, virgin gold, with my name and her’s engraved inside—that was all, and yet the sight of the little toy strangely thrilled me as I balanced it upon the top of my finger. To the eyes of others it was but a small plain circlet, suggesting thoughts, perhaps, by its elegance, of the beautiful white hand that was to wear it. But to me—how much was embodied there! A loving smile on a beautiful face—low words of welcome—a future home, and a sweet smiling face—a group of merry children to climb my knee—all these delights were hidden within that little ring of gold ! CHAPTER 11. Tall, bearded and sun-bronzed, I knocked at the door of my father’s house. The lights in the parlor windows and the hum of conversation and cheerful laughter, showed me that company were assembled there. I hoped my sister Lizzie would eome to the door, and that I might greet my family when no strange eye was look ing curiously on. But no; a servant answered my sum mons. They were too merry in the parlor to heed the long absent one when he asked for admittance. A bitter thought like this was passing through my mind, as I heard the sounds from the parlor, and saw the half-suppressed smile upon the ser vant’s face. I hesitated for a moment before I made myself known, or asked after the family. And while I stood silent, a strange appa rition grew up before me. From behind the servant peered out a small golden head —a tiny, delicate form followed, and a sweet, childish face, with blue eyes, was lifted up to mine—so like to those of one who had brightened my boyhood, that I started back with a sudden feeling of pain. “What is your name, my little one?” I asked, while the wondering servant held the door. She lifted up her hand as if to shade her eyes, (I had seen that very' attitude in another, in my boyhood, many and many a time,) and answered in a sweet, bird-like voice : “Mary Moore.” “And what else?” Tasked quickly. “Mary Moore Chester,” lisped the child. My head sank down like lead. Here was an end to all the bright dreams and hopes of my youth and manhood. Frank Chester, my boyish rival, who had often tried, and tried in vain, to usurp my place beside the girl, had succeeded at last, and had won her away from me ! This was his child—his child and Mary’s ! 1 sank, body and soul, beneath this blow And, hiding my %ce in my hands, I leaned against the door,/while my heart wept tears of blood. The/little one gazed at me, grieved and amazed, and put up her pretty lip as if about to cry, while the perplexed servant stepped to the parlor door, and called my sister out, to see who it eould be that conducted himself so strangely. I heard a light step, and a pleasant voice saying : “Did you wish to see my father, sir?” I looked up. There stood a pretty, sweet-faced maiden of twenty, not much changed from the dear little sister I had Inved so well. 1 looked at her for a mo ment, and then, stilling the tumult of my heart by a mighty effort, I opened my arms and said : “Lizzie, don’t you know me ?” “Harry 1 Oh, my brother Harry!” she cried, and threw herself upon my breast. She wept as if her heart would break. I could not weep. I drew her gently into the lighted parlor, and stood with her before them all. There was a rush and cry of joy, and then my father and mother sprang towards me, and welcomed me home with heartfelt tears. Oh, strange and passing is such a greeting to the wayworn wanderer! And as I held my dear old mother to my heart, and grasped my father’s hand, while Lizzie still clung beside me, I felt that all was not yet lost, and though another had cured life’s choicest blessing, many a joy remained for me in this dear sanctuary of a home. There were four other inmates of the room who had risen on my sudden entrance. One was the blue-eyed child whom I had already seen, and who now stood beside Frank Chester, clinging to his hand. Near by stood Lizzie Moore, Mary’s eldest child and in a distant corner, to' which she had hurriedly retreated when my name was spoken, stood a tall and slender figure half hidden by the heavy window curtains that fell to the floor. When the first rapturous greeting was over, Lizzie led me forward with a timid grace, and Frank Chester grasped my hann. “Welcome home, my boy!” he said with the loud, cheerful tones I remembered so well. “ You have changed so that I should never have known you. But no matter for that; your heart is in the right place, I now.” , “ How can you say he is changed ?” said my mother, gently. “To be sure, he. looks older graver, and more like a man, than when he went away, but his eyes and smiles arc the same as ever. It is that heavy beard that changes him. He is my boy still!” “ Ay, mother,” /answered, sadly, “/ am your boy still.” Heaven help me ? At that moment 1 felt like a boy, and it would have been a blessed relief to have wept upon her bosom, as I had done in my infancy. But I kept down the beating of my heart and the tremor of my lip, and answered quietly, as I looked in his full handsome face : “ You have changed, too, Frank, but I think for the better.” “ Oh, yes ! thank you for the compli ment,” he answered with a hearty laugh. “ My wife tells me I grow handsomer every day!” “His wifei! Could I hear that name and keep silence still ?” “ And have you seen my little girl ?” ho added, lifting! the infant in his arms, and kissing her cijimson cheek. “ I tell you, Harry, there js not another in the world. Don’t you think she looks very much as her mother used ?” “ Very mubh,” I faltered. “ Hallo !” pried Frank, with a sudden ness that made me start violently,” I have forgotten to introduce you to my wife. I believe you and she used to be playmates in your young days—eh, Harry ?” and he slapped me on the back. “ For the sake of old times; and because you were not here at the wedding, I’ll give you leave to kiss her at once ; but mind, old fellow, you are never to repeat the ceremony. Come, here she is, and I for once want to see how you will manage those ferocious mustaches of yours in the operation.” He pushed Lizzie, laughing and blush ing towards me ! A gleam of light and hope, almost | too dazzling to bear, came over me, and l cried out before I thought: —BUCHANAN. u Not Mary!” I mmst have betrayed my secret to every one in the room. But nothing was said. Even Frank, in general so obtuse, this time was silent. I kissed the fair, cheek of the wife, and hurried to the silent figure at the window. “ Mary—Mary Moore,” I said in a low, eager voice, “ have you no welcome to give the wanderer ?” She turned and laid her hand in mine, and murmured hurriedly : “ I am glad to see you here, Harry.” Simple words ; and yet how blessed they made me ! I would not have yielded up that moment for an emperor’s crown ! For there was the happy home groupe,4nd the dear home fireside, and there sweet Mary Moore ! The eyes I had dreamed of by day and night were falling before me ! I never know the meaning of happiness till that moment came ! Many years have passed since that hap py night, and the hair that was dark and glossy then is fast turning gray. lam growing to be an old man, and can look back to a long and happy, and I hope a well spent life. And yet, sweet as it has been, I would not recal a single day, for the love that made my manhood so bright shines also upon my white hairs. An old man ! Can this be so ? At heart lam as young as ever. And Mary, with her bright hair parted smoothly from a brow that has a slight furrow upon it, is still the Mary of my early days. To me she can never grow old, nor change. The heart that held her in infancy, and shel tered her in the flush and beauty of wo manhood, can never east her out till life shall cease to warm it, Nor even then, for love still lives above. Gen. Small Released.— This gentleman was liberated on Tuesday last, upon the re ceipt of a despatch from Harrisburg, stating that the Governor had signed the bill to that effect just passed by the Legislature. His incarceration has extended over a period of some eight months, a fact which shows that Gen. S. is a stickler for military etiquette.— It will be remelnbered that his imprisonment arose out of a contested election for the com mand of the Second Brigade, to which both Mr. Small and Mr. Tyler, jr. claimed to he entitled. The Governor conferred the commission upon Gen. Small, a matter which was immediately afterwards annulled by the Supreme Court of the State. Gov. Pollock, however, did not revoke the commission, and Gen. S. persisted in retaining the command.— 'l’he Supreme Court then resented what itcon sidered a contempt by ordering the contume lions General into confinement. CARDS. Dr. John.
