A Fearful Incident. A woman,
whose name we have forgotten," lies, or
lately did lie, very sick at Hemlock, this
county. A few days ago, in the daytime,
the watchers, returning to the room after
a temporary absence, were horrified to
find a huge snake coiled on the pillow of
the sick woman, and very near her head.
The woman was asleep. What to do, was
the question of terrible import recommen-
weak from illness, and any sudden excite
ment wonld surely kill her. It was there
fore thought unsafe to attack the snake
while she was asleep, because an excite
ment would thereby be communicated to
her system which might prove fatal;
while, for a like reason, it was thought
equally unsafe to wake her up to a reali
zation of the danger menacing her.- Tho
question, in all its terrible bearings, was
discussed by the watchers in a moment,
while their blood ran cold, and it was de
cided to maintaio, like M'Clellan before
Manassas, a masterly inactivity. If the
woman remained asleep and motionless,
she might escape. There was a chance
that the reptile might withdraw, without
doing any harm. After a few minutes,
which seemed like hours to the lookers
on, the slimy thing moved first one fold,
then another it slid from the bed to the
floor it crawled rapidly though the room
and hall, and out intottie. garden. It was
then killed. TJie woman 6lept calmly
throughoutvthetrying scene, and was
spared an experience the mere recital
whereof is enough to blench the cheek
and cause thebfqgd to curdle
-.Base Bali.. An interesting game of
base ball was played here on last SatuftUy
afternoon, between the married aud the
v mt
single nine or tne mountaineers..! ne
gamatwas. dosely contested throughout,
and was a creditable display of batting
and fielding on either side: After a play
of two hours and a half, victory perched
on the banners of the single nine as will
be seen by the following score :

To the Editor The Alleghanian :
Picnics are the order of . the day here.
The Turner Society celebrated their first
anniversary on Wednesday, Slst ultimo,
by a picnie at Luenan's grove, on which
occasion they were presented with a bean
tiful flag, rained at $200, by their lady
friends. One side of the flag represented
our National colors, the Stars and Stripes;
the other was red, Slack, and gilt, repre
senting the colors of the German Repub
lic. The Kiskiminetas Tribe of Red Men
No. 66 held a gTand picnic on Saturday,
3d instant, at Woodvale grove. The af
fair proved an entire success.
A parcel of "drunks" enjoyed them
selves in a free fight at the Franklin
House last Saturday. They smashed
things promiscuously for a time, when
our Burgess happened along and arrested
two of the principals, whom he permitted
to cool down in the stone jug. The. next
morning, they paid for their accommoda
tions to the tune of $12.
A special election was held here on the
29th alt, to fill vacancies in the borough
Council. The following persons were
elected: Second Ward, A. J. Hawes;
Fourth Ward; George Carroll, Airwine
Metr; Fifth Ward, Alexander Kennedy,
John Everhart.

to Ohio about a year ago, has come back
among us on a visit. In his western

know he is doing well in business, and
hope his stay here may be both long and
pleasant.
Painting, &c. For a specimen of
superior painting, graining, paper hang -

T. Sharretts Dysart, one of the best pain
ters in the State.
Speculation. Late reports have it
that John Morrisey made $200,000 last week

Go to Mills & Davis for your dry
goods, ready-made clothing, groceries, hard
ware, &c, &c. They are determined to un

History or the Penna. Reserve
Corps. This interesting book has just been
published, and subscriptions will be received
lx Mr. Silas H. Davis, the agent for this
place. It contains a complete record of the
organization of the different companies, reg
iments and brigades: descriptions of marches,
skirmishes and battles, together with bio
graphical sketches of officers, and personal
record of each man during his term of service ;
and in fact, it contains a minute description
of every movement of this famous organiza

"He hath a daily beauty in his life,
That makes me ugly."
"His beauty consists principally in his
fine head of hair. My features and form are
as good as bis, but the unfortunate prema
ture greyness of mine and the early tendency
to baldness have made me ugly."
A thorough course of toilet treatment with
Barrett's Hair Restorative would have pre
vented such a misfortune. No peron has a
right to be any uglier than nature makes him.
