A correspondent writinjj from
Warren to thu Konovo lirortf, n
lates tho folio iviiig ubout a reuiaik
ablo family.
In my travels, a short timo nr;o,
near Cattish, Clarion county, I met
Mr. John C. Kissinger, an old gen
tleman eighty years of nje, halo and
hearty, who is the father of thirty
four children. Mr. Kissinger was
twico married having bv bis lirst
wifo nineteen children and fifteen by
ins second wno is siui living, uoii
forty-four vears and wei'diiii" III")
pounds. In 1831 Mr. Kissinger lost
nino children iu ono night, under tho
following circumstances. Ilo and
bill wifo wero summoned on n linv
suit, somo fifteen miles distant; tak-
ing 0110 horso they st ilted 011 th ir
journoy, rnling alternately, taking
with thom their baby. After linisb
itig their business they started on
their homoward trip, but when thoy
got within four miles of home, a
fearful storm arose, which obliged
them to remain over night at Mr.
Steele's, a neighbor. This was the
lirst time since their iiinrrwgo that
thev had ever left their littlo family
alono. At nn earlv hour in tho morn
ing they started for homo, but had
uot gono far whon thoy wero met by
two neighbors, coming iu haste to
ward thorn, whon the horrible tale of
death was soon told. That night tho
house, was burned and nothing re
mained of their nino children (tho
oldest being It!) but a few charred
bones. Tho youngest child by his
first wifo, now living is a littlo girl
cloven years of ago. They loHt tho
yonngost child last spring, ngod l
years. Mr. Kissinger was born in
Adams county, and moved iuto Cliu
ton couuty whon ho was sovon years
of ago. Clarion county was thou a
denso wilderness, gaiuo of every kind
being plenty. Mr. Kissinger, iu his
day, was a groat hunter, and the
writer had tho pleasure of hearing
him relate many interesting nd ven
tures which by far outstrip our
gcniid friend Undo Jako Ham
tnersly. Mr. Kissingor ia surround
ed by plenty nnd bids fair to live
many jonrs yot. Tho writer spent a
pleasant part of a day aud one night
with the family, nnd as I took the
sketch from tho old man's lips, tho
tears coursed down bis furrowed
chocks, and Lo said ho would gladly
give all ho possessed to have the
pleasure of seeing Lis thirty-four
children all alivo. We bid the old
man adieu, with wishes that the
evening of his life might not be so
heavily clouded as the morning.

It was a calm ami pleasant evening,

"You nro half a point off the

corrected, aud tho ullieer returned to
his post
"You intt-d steer very accurately,'
said tho looker on. "when only half n

"Ah, half a point in many tilaces.

In tho zoological gallory of Dr.

in many particulars the Tiger l'athou
or Amca, coiled in tremendous folds,
with head erect, mouth open ami a
mammoth forked tonguo protruding,
as if about to gulp down at ono
spiiug everything 111 reach. This
snake, which Dr. Cunuiugham has
named tho Lead Python of tho
Southwest, is, without dout, tho
largest American reptile over cap
tured. Tho bstory of its capture is
about as follows ; Two miners in
Hickory couuty were returning home
from a prospect in the woods, in the
hitter part of July, accompanied by
a large dog. Whilo pausing a thicket
ou the banks of a stream tbey were
attracted by a hissing or gushing
noiso followed immediately by a
loud yelp from tbo dog and a crash
among the bushes. On approaching
tbo spot they beheld the terrible
monster in tbe act of swallowing the
dog. Tbey fled, but soon returned,
and succeeded in capturing tbe rep

snake when first taken was ubout
