He possessed n most perfect horror of every thing in the shape ol a serpent . and often prophe sied that he should some day or, other die irnm tie bite of one. On one fourth of July the doctor had been invited to a pit; hie, mid on their return home the party agreed, ns the evening was very pleasant, mid the moon shining brightly, to go by wuy of the river. Accordingly Huy handed the ladies into the lioal. und shot ,d off, having sent their horses home by auu'h- er route | Suddenly a tremendious yell arose from vvheie the doctor was sitting, and he leaped from his seal so violently ns to almost over set the bent.

The doctor, surprised at. the calm tune in which this was stud, suspended his flag ge lation and looked up. ‘ I should be very much obliged to you if you would not demolish my whip eitirely,’ c intinued the gentleman, picking a -iding chip which Imd tl e bundle curved in u pond imitnLon of n smtko’x head. ‘ What!’ exclaimed the doctor, 1 isn’t it a shake?

When it is so easy 0 tiling to heaulilt and ndorn homo, .is it not a mat ter of surprise that so little attention in-this respect, is giv en to it in many parts of our country ?
