There grew, during the past summer, in the garden of Mr. David Parmly, in the township of Perry, in this county, a Cucumber, which measures from end to end, six feet two inches and a half! It was a species called the snake-cucumber; and grew in two or three circles, bearing an exact resemblance of a rattle-snake when coiled up.
Dead

In this vilalge, on the Thursday last, Frederick Wirt, in the 15th year of his age. The cause of his death was somewhat singular. About 9 days previously to his death he had the misfortune to run a nail into the bottom of his foot, the wound of which healed up in four or five days. Soon after, he was attached with a violent contraction of the muscles and tendons throughout the system, succeeded by lock-jaw, which soon terminated his existence.
