In the coursoof his long tight against slavery Ooneral Hawley and his oM friend, John Hooker, had on cxporit " ence which Is probably unlquo among Vow England citizens. Hawley bought and Hooker owned a doctor of, divinity. A scholarly colored man, James Pi n nlngton, who had nvt'lved at Hcidoli berg the degree of D. D., was settled pver the TalcottStreetchurch In Hnrt tort, Conn. It came out that ho ran away from slavery wlon a boy. lie was "owned" at the South, and when tho fugitivo slave law was passed there was danger of his capture and servitude. 8q Lawyer Jqj Hawley went to his owners, for Mr. Hookor, bought this doctor of divinity and brought Mr. Hooker back tho bill of fcalo. Mr. Hooker tried for a day tho Reeling of owning n, minister and than put on record in tho town clerk's ofllce deed giving tho Itev. Dr. James Pen nington tho ownorshlp of himself. ' t The Dos and tlia Watch. A youngjady had a beautiful gold. watih of which, she was unduly proud. Tlio time-piece was exhibited on vari- xous occasions, and a fow days agc Vhen toino admiring friends ver ox- jtminlng it, tho watch accidentally flipped from their fingers. A cry of -dkmay went up whon tho party saw rho watch disappear with a gulp in the yawning mouth of a dog which sat pt their foot, looking expectantly up--vard and good-naturedly Wgging its, stall. Toor doggie imagined that he iud nvcived a choice morsel, and "looked pleased with his feat of catch- irg it ou he fly, but prveH to b(, 'h us death warrant. Uo was summarily Upat.!hed, and at the post-mortem the watch was recovered, none the worse from tho mishap. Treating 8naka llltet. Sir Joseph Fayror, who is the great est living authority on the subject of i snake bites, holds that a person suffer- i 'ns from snake poison is practically 4ying "uexvous exhaustion," an4 Consequently when" tha victim, is forced o tako violent exercise 'in oriler td throw off by perspiration the poison that has been absorbed in his system, his end s in reality being hastened;, perspiration &huld be induced by a rrapor bath so as to draw the poison out of the system. Sir Joseph Foyrer's experience leads to the conclusion that jit tho present tlnje tltere is no known fcure for the bite of eithen the cobra o -Iie Dabolo.
