Flanking a Salary Grabber.
Colonel Ozro J. Dodds, lato member of
Congress from the Fifth District of Ohio,
tells a good story about a call he recently
received at his office from a man who
claimed to be an editor from Arkansas.
He was a very soedy-louking chap, and
appeared as thongU he had but recently
come off from about a six weeks’ spree.
Bowing profoundly, then striking an atti
tude, with one hand on his heart and tl e
other extending a badly used plug hat, he
exclaimed with a dramatic air:
“Have I the honor of addressing tie
Honorable Ozro J. Dodds ? ’
Said the Colouel: “My name is Dodds,
but I*m no longer au honorable.”
“Not an honorable? Dodds not an
honorable ? Now, by St. Paul, when I
scan /hat honest face, on which all the
gods at once do seem to Ret their seal
(‘Green Seal,’ murmured Dobbs to him
self;, I read nothing dwhonorable.”
“That’s right,’ said Dobbs, “never read
' anything dishonorable. But to busi
ness.”
“Yes, as yon say, to business. I am a
printer—I might say, with no unbecoming
blush, an editor. I am from the noble
State of Arkansaw—the only State, by-
the-way, able and willing to support two
Governors at the same time. Bat I have
been unfortunate. Much have I been
tossed through the ii£ of cruel Juno,
and—
“Juno how it is yourself,” broke in the
Colonel.
“Buffeted by the world’s rude storm
you see me here a stranded wreck. Scarce
three moons have passed since I left my
offtoe in charge of my worthy foreman,
and sought the peaceful vales and calm
retreats of the Muskingum valley, where
my childhood sported. Beturning, I
stopped in Cincinnati. I fell into evil
company, and—but why dwell upon de
tails ? Enough that I am, that, that I am
disheartened, ruined, broke! A mark for
scorn to poiut hat slow, unerring finger
at. As I,WttS about to give up in despair,
having given up everything else I had, I
thought of you. Sir, I am here. .You
have not scut for me, but I have come!
Your name, sir, is known and honored
from one end of this great republic to the
other! It
“Glow* in the •taw,
Refreshes in tho breeae,
Warms in the sun
And blotsoma on the trees.”
“When the national treasury was threat
ened by a horde of greedy Congressmen
you stood like a wall of adamant between
the people and those infamous salary
grabbers. Lend me a dollar!”
“My dear sir,” tho Colonel hastened lo
explain, “you mist'dte *the case entirely.
I was oue of the grabbers.”
“Yon were?” (gnspiug the Colonel
hand warmly) “so much the better! Let
me congratulate you that a parsimonious
public could not frighten you out of what
was but a fair remuneration for your val
uable services. I am glad that your pe
cuniary circumstances are so much better
than I supposed. Make it two dollars! ’
And the Colouel did. It was the ouly
clean thing left for him to.

A Delaware Snake Story.
The following description of a strange
and deadly reptile found in Sussex coun
ty, Del., is given by the Seaford Citizen :
“A curious and daugerous snako, the
only oue of the kind that has ever been
found in this part of the country, was
killed by some workmen on the farm of
Francis Iusley,' near Wetipquiu, $u sex
county. It measured twenty-eight moo
es in length and two inches in circa infer
ence. Its color is black, striped with
w hite, which, when exposed lo the rays • f
the fcuo, shine with the brilliancy of pol
ished silver. It was provided with two
rows of teeth, twenty-six ou each side,
very sharp, yet are different from those
of the snake common to this ouuutry.
About five inches from its tail are two
thick grisly protuberances, about one
iuck in leugih, one on each side of the
body. Kacb protuberance contains eigh
teen horns, about one-eighth of an inch
in length. They are hollow, and tho poi
son is supplied to thorn by means of small
ducts connecting with a thin, transparent
bag about oue inch below the protuberan
ces. We are told that some years ago a
snake, supposed to be a horned sunke,
attacked a man in this same vicinity, and
in order to escape he jumped behind a
large tree, aud the snake striking with
such force .buried its horn into the trunk
about ouo-eighth of an inch. In thirty
minutes thereafter a dullness in the
leaves was perceptible, aud strange to
say in another hour they commenced fail
ing off, and to-day it is nothing but a
withered, naked trunk.”

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
TO
EVERT ONE WHO WISHES TO SEE
THE
SOUTH SUCCEED
THE
COLUMBUS ENQUIRER-SUN
Is the only thoroughly independent paper South. It believes
we are to win; not by complaining about the past, but
working for the future. While it gives proper space and
notice Jo all political matters of State and National impor
tance, it aims to call the attention of emigrants and capital
ists to our great resources and to build up the South on a
basis that has for its foundation Industry and economy.
While disclaiming to be the organ of any creed, party or
society, all its tendencies will be in favor of TEMPER
ANCE, MORALITY and RELIGION. Being deeply
interested in the success of the farmers, and having implicit
faith in the grand destiny of the GRANGES, the EN
QUIRER-SUN will devote a large space, under a capable
editor, to AGRICULTURE, and in chronicling the move
ments of the Patrons of Husbandry.
THE DAILY ENQUIRER-SUN
Will contain all tlie latest National, State, Local and For
eign news, dcvoting-much space to Alabama interests. Its
editorial management will be fearless for right, and while
recording passing events it will not neglect the arts, sci
ences and the advancement in the world’s material progress.
THE WEEKLY ENQUIRER
Will give weekly a digest of all Foreign and National
news. It will devote much space to Southern intelligence
and will contain original articles on Agriculture, the Granges
and other matters that will be of incalculable benefit to the
planter and general reader.
The SUNDAY ENQUIRER-SUN
While giving the latest news, aims to become what is
much needed, viz.:
A GREAT SOUTHERN LITERARY WEEKLY!
It will contain original articles, stories and sketches, his
torical and biographical, from Southern pens. Each issue
will contain in addition poetry, scientific notes, domestic
recipes, fashion and household affairs, wit and humor, no
tices of late books and periodicals, religious reading, church
news, and in fact every interest will be represented that
will, in any way, aid the reader.

the poorest man and road with profit by himself and family:
