TALE OF UNEXPECTED BRAVEUT.-Thc following is one of the moat thrilling adveutu res that it?has been our lot to chronicle. Three beautiful and brave young ladies, while enjoying a walk among the doep shadows and oool re? treats of the beautiful park adjoiuing their home, near Brook's Station, Bullitt County, Ky., encountered a largo* snake, measuring forty-eight inches iu length and Ove inches in circumference. Instead of, running away, these heroic ! fuir ones attacked tho scaly munster and succeeded in bruising thc serpent'? head, i When the crown of bia mujesty'a bead was laid low, the fairest of the fair, not satistled with taking the would-be de? stroyer's life, proceeded to dissect him. I -Horor of horrors! they discovered that thia gay deceiver bad just swallow? ed four, newly-fledged birds. On being released tho happy little creatures flus? tered away, seemingly unconscious of the danger they had joist passed. The snake weighed eight pounds, and was of the rare species known by the familiar uame of *'gutter'' snake." The young ladies aro proud of their bravery and profoundly grateful for their . escape from an untimely death. [Louisville Courier-Journal.

Howard, Sr., living near the Cherokee Ponds, Edgetield, S. C., waa sot on fire by lightning July 6th, during a severe rain and thunder storm. The tiro wns discovered in time to save about 100 bushels of corn and fifty bush? els un threshed wheat.

Only about live bushels of wheat were burned. Ou Thursday afternoon, Mr's. Martha Sheldon, aged about sixty live years, aud residing iu Camden, uccompuuied another lady to a grist mill in the oonn try on the Burlington turnpike. While in the mill, Mrs. Sheldon's dress was caught in a revolving shaft, which whirled her around with great velocity, her houd at each revolution striking a bar near by, until it was entirely beuteu from the body. A Kansas 'journal 'mnst be held re? sponsible for this item: "We learn of a woman in Jefferson County, in .this State, who took a colt six months old tp her'brcaat und thus saved its lifo. It had lost its pareut, and but for the kind iutorest taken in it, it would have starved It ia said that the colt would, whenever the lady was sceu, run whinnying to her, and, laying its head on her breast, would partake of food with great relish."
