Judge of the extent to which her eyes protruded, when, upon cut ting up one half, preparatory to cook ing it, a snake, which had been con cealed in the folds of the leaves, dart ed out. Viney’s acrobatic feats, on, the occasion, would have secured her an engagement with Robinson’s circus. The story is only half told; next day she found another snake concealed in the other half of the cabbage.
