round, and on a certain sigAil given by his
master, suddenly dropped' the eartheto jar;

house, where he bad several others similar

The next exhibition of his powers was

formed tricks and wonders which I. shall
not, however, set down. Had I not seen
them I should not have believed them; I
cannot, therefore, expect tint my readers
should-do so, and will not risk my reputa
tion for veracity by relating them.
Being desirous of seeing a combat be
.- tween a snake and its inveterate enemy,
the mungooze, (an animal similar to the
icheeumon of Egypt.) I requested the
charmer to exhibit a fight of the kin).—
He instantly consented, as every one of
these men carry not only snakes but mun -
goozes with them, and led us out into the
compound—the field attached to almos.
every house in cantonments. Having ex
pressed our fears lest any of the party might
be injured by the reptile, he proposed that
the exhibition shriek take place under an
enormous pheasant-coop of worked wire,
which was lying unused in the courtyard.
This arrangement was acceded to, and, at
our suggestion, the snake first taken in the
morning was selected for the' encounter.
The mouth of the vessel in which he was
enclosed was placed under the edge of the
coop,and the covering suddenly withdrawn .
In a moment after the cobra corolla darted
out. The jar was then taken away, and
theedges of the pheasantry coop lei down.
During fwo or three minutes the monster
_linked his nose al; round the enclosure,
.evidently wishing to escape; but finding;
ibis impossible, he quietly coiled hitiself
up,freeine, however his magnificent heat'
from the folds, and remained in a sort of
\listening attitude,
Presently the man produced the mun
goose and let him in to his adversary.--
NAV fr• was I more surprised. This was
' the first time I had seen one. I had ex
pected to behold a somewhat powerful op•
pnnent. Never could I hive expected that
BO small an animal would have dared to
cope with serpents of the largest and d"ad
liest kind; such, however, was the case.
The little creature which now sniffed
around the edge of the coop, was about half
as lareeegain'as an English rat, of' a mot
tled color, with small red eyes. and would
have been a very ugly animal bad it not
been for its tail, which was long and bushy
in circumference near the centre, almost as
dirge as the little body to which it was at
ttached.
For a- time the mongoose ran about with•
gt.ing y up T.O the snake, which
uvarestr.: having pp:ritpiu.d
arils first entrance, had prepared to give
him battle. Suddenly the tiny creature,
to its adversary, saw the
snake, and without hesitation ran at it. So
apparently unequal a contest I never be
held. The cobra capclla had reared itself,
and -spread out its hood—a sort of fleshy
evetit inflates . when irritated, and which
has ; given rise to its designation. The
=aka around its eyes resembles a pair of
spectacles. Its marble stained scales seem
•all as it raised itself some three feet
high, J 3 meet the attack of the little savage,
Whole fiery eyes seemed suddenly to glow
*As red-hot cinders as it rushed towards its
mighty enemy and bit it. The snake dart
ed at it, squeezed it, inflicted its dreadful
wound, and then threw itself back. The
Mongoose was evidently disabled. Faint,
'attit almost dying it retreated. Many of
utt.funcied the battle was over, and regret
tedthe untimely end of the courageous
blast. Alter limping about for some

VVestmorOlatno County.
The democrats of this sterling democrat..
ic county held a pnblic ,meeting at Greens.
burg on the 22ilinst., f.)r the purpose of ap,
pointing delegates' to the State Convention
at Harrisburg, -on thellthef January. We
observe that the persons who took part in
the proceedings, are men - who for many
years have enjoyed - the confidende oltheir
fellow citizens,. and whose opinions inpo.
Neal matters have.great weight witb -their
;Political brethren.
The meeting was organized by calling
Samuel L. Carpenter to the chair, and J.
NI. Laird, Esq. of Franklin, E. A. Robin..
son, Esq. of Derry, And' w Robertson, Esq.
of NI ountpleasant, Benj. Chambers of Al
legheny, Daniel Rimier, Esq. of Hemp
field and John Larimer, Esq.
,of Franklin,
were appointed Vice Presidents, Thomas
Latta, Esq. and D. IC. Marchind, Secreta.,
The Chairman, in a brief but pertinent
speech, which we find embodied in the pro•
ceedings, explained the object of the meet
-ing, and the propriety of the democracy of
Pennsylvania urging the strong claims of
the State, for the Presidency in 1844.
R. McLaughlin. ofrci-cd a preacrib'e
and resolutions expressive.of the sentiments
that they are such sentiments as might be
expected from the honest democrats of the
—star ►n the West," maugre tho efforts of
a few reckless individuals to misrepresent
then. We' make the following extract
from the preamble, from which our readers
can judge of the spirit that animated the
meeting.
Whereas, it has been recommended, that a State
Convention of Delegates should aisemble at Har•
risburg op the approathing anniversary of the bat
tle of New Orleans, for the purpose of advocating
th e nomination of a candidate for the office of
President of the United 3tites, and believing as
we do, that the claim of this state, as the KevQtrine
of the Federal arch, are strong and well founded
in the first office in the gift of this great conred
eracy, we therefore take great pleasure in propos
ing to our democratic fellow citizens the name of
the Hon JAMES BUCHAWAN, of Perin4ylvania
as a person eminently qualified to discharge the
duties of President of the U. S and we do hereby
earnestly and respectfully recommend to said
Convention, this gentleman as the Pennsylvania
candidate fm. President.
Col. John McFarland of Ligonier ; Cul.
F. A. Rohrer of Greensburg, and Joseph
Greer of North Huntingdon tp., were ap—
pointed delegates to: represent the county
in the state Convention.
We are pleased to learn that the Con
vention on the Bth or January, is likely to
be•attended by delegates from all the coun
ties in the state. The efforts that have
been made by the personal enemies of Mr.
BUCHANAN to send the impression abroad,
that he is not the choice of the democracy
of his own state, hail aroused those who,
under other circumstances, would have re
mained inactive, and will-be the means of
calling for a more Universal expression of
public opinion in his favor•, than if his en
emies and the enemies of the rights of the
Keystone, had perMitted the state to pre.

M ysterious--Colt supposed to be still Alive.
It appears by some of the N. Y. papers
that a strong-suspicion , exists in the minds
of many, that Colt is alive, and that a plot
was consumated by which he has made
his escape. A report is in circulation and
generally credited, that the coffin carried
into his cell was so heavy that the two ne
gro bearers struggled beneathahe weight,
and the inferences, says the Tattler, that
it contained a dead body, arranged to look
as much like Colt as possible, and that this
was the corpse with a knife sticking in the
breast, found by the sheriff and Dr. An
thon, when they opened the cell at four
o'clock. To carry out successfully this
plan, the building was fired, and the at..
tenting of the multitude was thus drawn
off from the execution, (Jolt meanwhile
being concealed beneath his bunk, till
night, when he made his escape.
The same paper says: We are not diss
posed to encourage this unhappy state of
public feeling, but. merely, proclaim it as
an argument to hasten an inquiry into the
conduct of the officers in whose hands was
committed the safe keeping or'. -Colt. An
outraged people are sensible that a foul
wrong has been committed, and it is right
that a searching investigation should be
had without delay. It is known by many
that a close carriav was waiting near the
prison, but for what purpose we know
not; a friend, however, of the deceased in
formed us that it was kept in readiness to I
receive the bogy of Colt from the gallows,
in order to attempt to resuscitate it with
the greatest despatch. The rumor of his
escaping in the disguise of a fireman, and
driving off in a cart iage, probably otigina
ted from this. The bribe of one thousand
dollars said to have been offered to each of
the deputies to suffer Colt to escape in the
dress of Caroline Henshaw—the furnish
ing of the knife to commit suicide—the
firing of tlis :«.. art rarer linwrsr

minutely investigated, justice may be said
to have flown from the empire city.
.11 Hard Case.—The Washington Spec
ator says, that an opulent merchant in one
of the northern cities, who died a few
years agn, at an advanced age, bequeathed
a considerable fortune to his wife and
daughter, taking precautions, at the same
time, that the investment, which was in
stock of the Bank of the United States,
should not be changed. He apprehended
they might be tempted by higher interest
or plausible inducements, to place their
funds where they would not be secure,
When the stock began to fall, the advice
of eminent counsel was taken with regard
to the practicability of selling out- -but it
was decided that it could not be
value was • thus Been to fall from day to day,
until it melted away to nothing, and the
unfortunate women were consigned to
abject poverty.
Issue of the Boston Slave Case.—The
Boston Courier of Friday states, "Ir.Nvill
be seen by the report of proceedings yes.
terday afternoon in the Municipal Court,
which will be found in another column,
that the case of Latimer is decided for
the present, at least. We undersand that
he was discharged from the custody of the
jailor before dark last evening, with the
knowledge and consent of his claimant,
Mr. Gray.'"
..That Spot?n's" Bee ction.—The story
of the "spoons," like many other of their
malicious inventions, has beepme a thou]
in the sides-of the Whigs. Witness - the
following apt illustration, which we fitui

of the sliding scale.

the N. 0 Jeffersonian has discovered tha t ,

of being stuffed with laces and smuggled
from France into England. Congress
should take this into consideration and pass
a law making all bustles that may come in
to the country subject to examination.

pounds wouldn't be a "small potato."—
The Attacapas editor has come to this
conetosion.
A Fact.—lt is well said by an exchange
paper, that some people troub!e themselves
more about the payment of the debt of the
State than they du about their uaNti.
Florida Tigers.—One of these ferocious
animals (says the St. Augustine News, of
the 12th inst.,) which are very numerous
in our_ Teriitory, was killed a few day s
since,#Out eight miles from our city. He
measu'ed from the tip of the tail to the
nose, 8 feet 6 inches.
Fire and Loss of Life.—A negro house
on the plantation of Mr. Thomas Oliver,
says the Hamburgh (G-en) Jou ornal. below
the city, took fire on Saturday night, and
burnt a negro woman and three children
to death. •
The Prize Fighters.—The tiial of the
persons indicted fur the murder of Tom
McCoy, at Hastings, was to have come on
last Monday, before the Cou t of Oyer and
Terii.iner of Westchester county, New
York.
An Alabama ed,tor apologizes for the

Colt--Is he Dead or rot--His Wife, Ste.
New York: as we!l as this city, is fu'l of rumors
'in relltion to the Colt romance. Numbers ineiet
Oat Colt is not dead—that his suicide was a hoax;
that he was permitted to csc ipe—and one gentle
man assured us yesterday that he st-le Mr. Colt
land here is the New, York boat at night, and heard
him make inquiries as to the roost expeditious
mode of reaching New Orleans via Pittsburg from
this city, and via Wheel ng from Baltimore.
14 , a must conless that we think our'informant
was mistaken. But it seems that similar stories
are narrated in New York. Tho N. Y. Chroni
cle of yesterday says—" There was a rumor in
the city yesterday that John C. C. It was Seen at .
Harlem at 12 o'clock on Saturday, and that he
crossed the river o'New Jeraey in an op rt boat.
The rumor further stilted, that he made his es
cape in fethale dress from the Prison daring the
hu .bob oceasinned by the fire--4 - 'was passed out of
the El 111 street gate—entered a hackney coach pre
pared for his r..ception, and was driven off at a
moderate pace, to avoid suspicion, in thd direction
of the upper part of the city.
And the rtiinor further has it that the body with
the clasp knife stuck in his heart, and n a which
was held the Coroner's inquest, was that of a
man bearing some resamtlance to Colt—who diLd
the night before in the Alms House, and who was
stealthily conveyed into the Prison, with the full
consent and by the aid of certain of our v-orship
fill authorities."
If this rumor be true, the person v. ho arrivera,
by the midnight tine from New York, might have
been Mr. Cott, hot we cannot believe, it..
The N• Y. Aurora speaking of the rumors-a
float there, observ.es„.4hat--="-notwithstanding the
out upon
his body, and the testimony of the Lira number
of persons who saw him weLerino in -4th blood
there are hundreds in the ell who b3.ieve, or at--
feet to believe, that the story of his suicide is all
gammon, and that he is still alive and kicking.—
We saw one fellow yesterday, who aware that a
cabman, of th. , mast undoubted veracity, well ac
quainted with Wt., was ready to make affidavit
t at he pat him on board the New Haven boat fin
Saturday, and left him in the enj )yrnent of excel
lent health and spirits."

Whigery with the mask off—The New
Haven Daily Herald, a Whig pai.►er, in
speaking of the defeat of its party in New
York, uses the following language:
'How humilliating, we -repeat. is such
a stEte of things, when the honest and in
telligent of our native growth, are bidden
to stand by and bow to the supremacy of
.newly naturalized foreigners!' This comes
of the-foul and degrading -doctrine-of UM..
