The "West" is the land of wonders, and is
determined not to be excelled, even in snakes,
with which we had thought the mountains of
Western Pennsylvania were especially favor
ed. This is esemplifled in the following para
graph, from a Western exchange:
"A rattlesnake was lately killed, twenty
miles west of Terre Haute, twenty-one feet in
length, eighteen inches round in the largest
part, and which had one hundred and eleven
rattles. This same snake, or one like it, was
seen in the same locality thirty years ago. The
monster was killed with a rifle bullet, and is
undoubtedly the biggest snake upon record.'
The story, we feer, is larger than the snake:
but the following, from the Johnstown Eao.
comes within the bounds of probability:
"Mr. S. J. Hill, Verona, Westmoreland
county, and a lad in his employ, captured n
live rattlesnake on Thursday last, some three
miles from Mr. Hill's residence, Which in size
and age "knocks the spots" off any of the rep
tile species ever known to have been seen in
that neighborhood. It measures six feet three
inches, and has no less than thirty-three rat
tles, indicating the venerable age of thirty-six
years. Mr. Hill extracted the fangs from the
"varmint," and presented it to Mr. W. F.
Graham, who sent it to Pittsburgh for exhibi
tion."
We should like to see the reptile, and when
it comes we hope the exhibitor will give us the
opportunity.
FA.SRIONS FOR Z•EPTENIBER.—The modistes
(says a late "fashion" publication) seem de
termined 'to make every style fashionable, so
that the casaque and basque are worn ns well
as pointed and round bodies.
Therouhd-waisted bodies (revived novelties)
seem to threaten us as leading on to the short
waist worn by our ancestors. At present they
reach quite to the hips, and only appear short
by the suppression of thel basque, and litle by
little the waists will lie shortened in the same
proportion as they have been lengthened.
Skirts retain all their fullness, and most
dresses are made with bands: full bodies for
light dresses, many of them with open bodies,
trimmed round with tulle ruches; high and
pointed bodies are worn for dresses of silk or
other thick material.
Sleeves are still worn very full and open:
tight sleeves are worn for morning dresses, and
small bishop-sleeves, with a turned back cuff.
are still in favor. Low bodies are much in re
quest, with canezons either of figured nett or
muslin, fastened under the band, and trimmed
across the shoulders with a frill of bouillone.
As neglige, the long casaque, with skirt of
the same material, is much worn, either in
quilting, chintz, jaconet, steel colored harem..
and printed mudins ; the casaque trimmed
Ivith flat plaiting.
Simple dressed made with lour flounces, trim
med with ribbon or the same color, are much
worn ; ribbons of different colors are aban
doned. High-bodied barege dresses, made
either with a gilet in front, and pointed be
hind, or round at the waist, with a sash, the
bow in front, are fashionable.
Mantles are going out of favor; shawls of
cashmere, lace, silk, muslin or crape. are now
the favorites. These are trimmed with two
rows of lace, or with gimp, fringe and jet bet
tons.
There is little change in bonnets; light fancy
straws, crape and Leghorn are worn ; these aro
trimmed with a simple ribbon, or flowers and
lace, the inside to match : any becoming color
may be worn.
A NEW GROCERY STORE IN ALLEGHENY.-
Our readers, and the public generally, especial
ly those who hold the position of betul of the
c.i.t.4ehold and purveyor, in Mir sister city of
Allegheny, will he pleased' to learn that a new
family grocery has been opened, at the corner
of Qhio street and the Diamond, in the new
threestory brick building just completed there,
the whole of which is occupied by the new
firm of Tiernan & Getty, with a choice selec
tion of family groceries. The firm is composed
of Mr. Francis Tiernan. and Mr. R. P. Getty,
who has long been in the employ of Messrs.
Mercer & Robinson; Federal street. The former
gentlemen has recently returned „from the
East, where he purchased, for cash, as exten
sive a stock of groceries as there is in Alle
gheny city, and which are now exposed for sale
in the fine building above noted, the main room
being one hundred feet long bv' twenty wide .
This stock embraces everything usually sold in
such establisments, from the substantials, sugar,
tea, coffee, rice, molasses, and fish, to the fancy
groceries, such as pickles, chocolate, &c. They
have also a large stock of cigars of choice
brands. In fact, it would be difficult to ask for
any thing that they have not in their large as
sortment. The store looks cheerful and clean,
and as these gentlemen are determined to sell
goods at small profits, anddo all in their power
to please, we commend their establishment to
the public, and heartily wish them success.
CAMBRIA COUNTY—Patrick Nightly, in the
etriplesk of - the Cambria Iron Oompany, met
with a horrible deatb,on Thursday of last week.
ffe was engaged in undermining a pile or
clamp of ore which, as is usual, had been burn
ed or calcined previous to being introduced
into the Furnaces, and although he used every
precaution to prevent the immense heap from
falling upon him, u portion of the burning
Mass unfortunately gave way, and era the vic
tim bad time to escape, the ashes, dust and fire
thrown out in its desent, completely enveloped
him and communicated the flames to his cloth
ing. He was terribly burned, the flesh falling
from his body in charred masses, while his hair

Professor Gardner In Allegheny.
Yesterday morning, from nine o'clock until
noon, the citizens of Allegheny were brought
to the doors of their dwellings and places of
business by the brazen music of Professor
Gardner's gong, which resounded throughout
the length and breadth of the city, attracting
the attention of all. Ever and anon the Pro
fessor would stop his buggy, and announce in
stentorian tones that he would deliver a lecture
in the Diamond square in the evening, on the
qualites of the New England Soap, -by con
sent of the Mayor and civil authorities;" then
bang went the "dreadful gong," and the Pro
fessor drove on.
In the evening, about four thousand persons
assembled to listen to his address. Tho Pro
fessor told many quaint anecdotes, in his own
style, and said many good things, all entirely
original. He then descanted upon the qualities
of the "Now England Soap,' and wound up
by selling a cake of that article to all who
needed, and although the crowd generally bad
clean faces ; he drove a thriving business for
some time, and we should judge from appear
ance that he made an immense sale of his cele
brated soap. Tho Professor is a live, energetic
Yankee, and deserves the success he now com
mands.
