Tlio story is rather a tough one—snako storied genornlly aro—but from the clmraetor pf the pnpor, tlio correspon dent, arid the sworn certificate of an officer, wo think, precludes all doubt as to its correctness! About twenty-flvo yoars ago a Sir. Vernon was returning front ills work shop near Llndnll’s Mill, on the Frank lin and Murfreesboro road, nt tlio foot of it largo hill, ho saw tlio track of somo immense sorpolit, loading toward ri largo thicket on tlio bill-side. It measured nbout nineteen inches across, anil sooincd to press into tlio dust as if a great weight had passed over It. Mr. Vernon collected tlio people of the neighborhood the next morning, and welt armed, tlioy made a close sonrcli for tlio monster, but without success. About ton years nftonvard ills track wns again scan by several man nbout a mile from tlio formor pined. Some five yoars later, as a Mrs. Barnes was In her garden gathering vegetables, she saw the monster lying along a cabbage row, but was so badly frightened that she wns unable to form oven a conjec ture ns to liis size. Her husband quick ly ran to tho gardon whan the alarm was given; but tho snako had disap peared, leaving, howover, his immonse trail.

Ucoccupies tlm only ground for the workingman to stand on, ami any man who does not hold tlm principles he has onuclatcd wilt be defeated tu November. To their surprise tlioy saw tho suppos ed polo, when thoy got within sixty or sovonty paces of it, suddonly raiso its lioad above tho top of tho fenco on tlm west side of tlm pike, and commenced moving slowly over it. Although tlm two gentlemen were badly frightoned, they dotermod to bco moro of his snake- ship, and as soon as ho had got about ono hundred yards into tho field, they passed beyond him on tho piko nnd quickly got to tho top of tlm hill, some two hundred yards above him. Tlm serpent did not seem to earo for tlmir proximity, but quiotly pursued his way, which lay about half way down tlm hill-side through tho field, until ho camo to tlm huslms in tlm woods. Ho re mained hero nearly two hours, until midday, wlion 1m raised his head full flfteon foot, looked around slowly, and resumed tho snmo course through tlm woods, with head erect. This position lm did not clmngo for noarly half a mile when they saw him dart sudden ly forward with grout velocity, nnd striko toward tho ground. When he again raised his head ho lmd a hare in his mouth. IIo halted hero a while, and, lowering his head, they supposed ho swallowed it, fof nftor remaining down for fifteen or twenty minutes ho raised his head aud moved slowly for- nrd. Tlm woods lmro becoming open nnd freo from bushes, they lmd a fine view of his size nnd length, and becoming coolor nml more self-possessed, thoy were able to como to somo conclusion ns to tlmir course. Boing both of ven turous spirit, tlioy determined to watch him to liis den, and if possiblo effect his capture. Tlmir dotermiuntion be ing made, tlioy, without a groat deal of difficulty, kept in sight nt a safo dis tance. Uewas often hidden from tlmir viow by intervening thickets, butkuow- ing of liis previous appearance, they supposed ho wns going to his den in that direction, and time, by getting a clear viow beyond tlm plnco where he wns bidden, they soon would bo ablo to see him emerge. When tlm ground wasclcarof obstruc tions, lm traveled with bis bead near tho earth, raising it ns ho approached a fence or bushes. Thus they followed him up near two nnd ono-lmlf miles, until lm came to a largo hill. When about half way up this hill, tbo snako slopped in a perfectly open plnco, nnd after looking all around bo gavo lortlT alow bellowing sound like tlm sup pressed lowing of a cow, nnd then thrusting bis bead into a hole that wns invisible to them, ho slowly drew him self into it. Mr. ltohinsou now remained on guard while Mr. Lisle with tlm assis tance of Mr. Thomas Burke, quickly aroused tlm neighborhood, nml coming to the plnco each with a largo rock in his arms, limy quickly stopped up tlm hole. It was about two feet in diatn- otor nml, scorned from tlm plnco boing worn smooth around to have been oc- cnpled-.for some timo. All yesterday was occupied by llm neighbors in constructing n long box, of heavy two inch planks, one end of which wns thrust into tlm hole nnd rocks piled around, tliojother end cross ed with iron bars so ns not to obstruct the light.
