Two squaws with two moccasins and ■Other wampum bead work, had been drawdling along by, a moment before, which probably suggested the thought that was permeating his. half-addled bruin.

It was cruel! Tl.e string came up with a round turn, which almost tore the poor fellows toe off.

An Extraordinary Cose. The Homer (La.) Illiacl publishes a lettcrfrom «a person in Burleston county,’ Texas, whoso veracity is endorsed by tlio 1 Iliad. \Yo extract th<5 following : 1 will give you a short account of a very singular case in this ucigbboi hood, which lias for'the last eight or ten weeks- uitracted more attention than any ease I ever heard of. Persons for fifty or sixty miles, even from Austin, Bastrop nnd other places, have come to sec it. For about three weeks ihere were every night-from fen to one hun dred persons present, campingall round. .Some-tiuio last fall, a young lady, about *20 or 22 years of age was gathering peas near night, when something bit or stung her on the foot. She says it was a snake, but she did not see it. Some timo afterward it began to affect her.— She.Feemed to have fits, commencing about sun-down and lasting sometimes a part, and at others nil night. I have not been to see her myself, though several of my -family have. She first becomes nervous, then jerking, and then her eyo balls begin to protrude, and. in a few hours they look like bursting out, and she begs those around her to push them back. During tho fit she puts her self in every possible attitude—often trying to bite .herself, licking out her tongue, and mimicking a snake iu many ways, and mast generally perse veres until she succeeds in biting her self; und, very curious to state she gen erally tries to bite her big toe. About seven or eight weeks ago she got so she could not drink, and about eight weeks afterwards she could not eat ; and she bus positively remained twenty-eight days without eating one particle of any thing. Doctors could not get anything d0" ii liet—not evmi with puna*.' She a Snocitixo An.un.—A ,mo then seemed to sutler less, h or Some f u j occuronco took place in tho town of tune she has lost the use ot one hand Bloomer, Montcalm county, on Thurs- «nd Ug ami, in tact, ot onoside. day the 15th inat.
