We dreamt we saw a beautiful &male ty=
ing dead in the fatal embrace of a terrible
serpent. Its horrid folds confined the limbs
and_closely_compressed.the_chest and neck.
Her livid countenance and glaring eye-balls
marked the agony of strangulation; and the
monster's head was thruSt into her very
throat, with her sweet tongue in its horrid
jaws. We dreamt again, that a Jury.of in
quest sat over the Corpse of tho beautiful fe
male. The monster, after having made her
mouth the tongueless receptacle of his putrid

her death like her mother Eve; by a foolish

Senatorial Candidate.
Whet. our paper went to press last week,
we were not aware that our friends of York
had settled upon a person for Senator. From
the Ymit "Republican" of Tuesday last,
we learh that the Senatorial Delegates, who
met at Hanover, on the preceding Tuesday,
had, "without a moment's hesitation select
ed JAMES R. REILY as their candidate,"
In the same paper ,lie' . find the following
"Address of the Democratic Anti -Masonic
Delegates assembled in convention at York"
—For a notice of the talents, capacity, and
principles, of the' gentleman chosen, we ask
the public to read the following Address.
Amongst other names mentioned, that of
Jaines-IL-Reily appeared to be the most
prominent, .and consequently it became a
niatter of some importance, to ascertain f his
fitness foethat station.
Our first enquiry of course was,_whethef
Mr. mute. firm friend to the principles
of Anti-masonry, and, we are pleased to say,
that he is thoroughly so. He believes the
Masonic Institution to be both dan erous

Beside this, Mrifteily has the benefit...of

himself at this time, as he served the citizens

It has been thought that the man who
was ready and willing to fight his country's
battles, deserved, if otherwise fitted, some
substantial evidence of that country's regard.
During the late war, after Governor Snyder
had called out the first draft, or finir classes
of militia, he made a further requisition of
the remaining fbur classes,. when Mr. Reify
