It appears thats gentleman by the name of Levi Bowers, was engaged in night fishing at the Conococheague, when he caught what he supposed to bean ee]. Without stop- ping to examine it, he cut the head and inned it. Taking it home with the fish he caught, his wife cooked it for breakfast. After eating heartily of their meal, Mr. B. and his wife became deathly sick, and could not account for it. Mrs. B, immediately went to examine the remaining pieces of the snpposed ee}, and found it looked very blue, unlixe the ¢o'or of aneel. A doctor was aént for, ad he &t once pronounced the parties poisoned, and atter examination, found that what was su! Poeed to be an eel, was 8 snake. Mr. B. died, and his wife was quite ill for several days.— Hagerstown ( Md.)

The result is that Maine is to have the largest pota- to crop she has had tor many years. Most tues were late planted or had come for- ‘ward slowly, anda frost early in September would have destroyed the crop ina half grown condition. As it is,our most valuable crop ‘will be very large. Almost all eee havecome to matugity,with an average yield.—Lewiston Journal, ae z soe man named Bowerman, of a “Very-wealthy family, in Ontario county, N.

As he was about to return home with his “sub” a he was arrested by the authorities of Uanada, tried and convicted of violating their enlist- ment law, and sentenced to the penitentiary for 18 years. B@ The 5th district of Ohio has the dishonor of committing the outrage of resistance to the draft. Word has reached the authorities at Columbus that one of the enrolling officers of Mercer county, while serving notices of drafts, had his horse shot from under him. No further Tesistanee had been made at last advices. W7Mr. Banting, the English anti-obesity man, has been trying his system with the Princess Mary, of Cambridge, whose embon- point is troublesome to her. By abstaining om bread, potatoes, and milk, the lady wanes apace. 7 John Lynch, the new Republican mem- ber of Congress from the Portland, Me., dis- trict, was born there of Irish parents, and be- gan life as a cart driver, and has worked him- self up to an intelligent and wealthy merchaat and honored citizen. SEVERELY PERFORATED.—The U.S. sloop- of-war Brooklyn, which arrived at Charies- town, Mass., last week, from Mobile, has 59 shots in her sides,73 in other parts, and 1,200 pounds of iron shot and shell buried in her decks. OvT For LiwcoLn.—Wilkes’ Spirit of the Times has come out for Lincoln and Johnson.
