A envious spectacle was witnessed hy a nuinbor of pooplo in Walhalla last Fri day moruiog. Suspended hy a strand of spiders' wob, writhing in agony, and at intei vals tormented hy his captors, was a small blacksnake, about seven inches in length, dangling from a box counter in Mr. O. Ii. Schumacher's storo. Tho spiders wore wholly masters of tho situ ation, and every few seconds ono of tho snake's three captors would climb down tho almost invisible rope to the dangling snake and tighten tho coil about his nock. Uko a forked dart the snake's tongue was Bhot out at his persecutors, but it seemed only to servo ns a stimulus for worso treatment from tho wily little posts into whoso snare bo had fallen, and he was tormented constantly until ho dually gave up tho struggle. This lynch ing gives rise to the spcculutivoqucstion, aro spiders imitative creatures, or are tlioy tho originators of tho praolioo of lynching'.' if tho latter, then another good reason fer tho desirability of their extermination has ce io to light.
