At the Spelling ilatcb. in Petersburg on the 2ird mst , Mr. "Arthur Arlington of this place bore off the prize, not having missed a single word during the even ing. There were 19 rounds, in which Mr. Ally of Petersburg held ground up to the 1 8th, when he 'was floored. The prize,a large Websters Unabridged Dictionary, was presented to Mr. Ar rington,by Mr. W. Gorden McCabe. We congratulate our young friend & conntyman upon his success, in hold ing his position and not being "turned down" (as it used to be called, when we went to school) in the .entire lesson. The Masonic Hall at Franklinton, was sold on Thursday last, to the high- est bidder, it was bought by Mr. Reams, who intends converting it into a' tobacco Factory. We also learn that Mr. I5ob- bit will soon y commence building a factory in another "part of the town. It gave us pleasure, during our stay among our neighbors to notice that they were in excellent spirits, their motto is, onward.

In New England, the Spring of 1794 was distinguished by the forwardness of the season, and by the destruction oc casioned by the frost on the night be tween the 10th and 18th of May. Ap ples were then as larjre as grapes FFintcr rye had attained its full height. The apples and a great part of the rye were destroved. Tn 1798, snow, fell November 17. and lasted nearly all the time until April. "The cold year" was in 1R16. That summer there was frost in every month. On the 7th of June there was snow;. on the Sth it was too cold to ride com fortably toward the 2Vbrth, even in winter clothes ; and for three succes sive nights there were lanre white frosts, which cut the corn down to the rots. Corn was so thoroughly frozen on the 25th of September, that it ws hardly worth harvesting. In 1818, i.he season was extremely backward" It rained or snowed nearlv every day in the month of March and April. i AStandforLifo. Mr. Editor : I saw in the last Courier, a selection, headed 'A jump for life.' Now I propose to give you an -incident which occured in this, (Franklin county) showing as much nerve and presence of mind as your Western selection. . Mr. G. when a young man went on one occasion to a Store in his neigh- borhood, where he engaged in a social gLss with some of his boon companions, and according to his own statement he took a glais too much. When he reached home in the evening, a ser vant who was hauling with some oxen, met and informed him that a very large rattle enakc was lying a cross his path. and lie wanted help to kill it, where upon our hero proceeded to the spot and finding the reptile as reported, he proceeded at once to dispatch his snakeship. To accomplish this he se cured a stick of sufficient length and size, Lut in attempting to strike, his stick broke, -, which threw him forward with his heel on the snakes head, now if he jumped he would in all probabili ty be bitten, so throwing his weight on that foot held the snake fast until he could get his knife out, and then cut off the head of the snak?, and upon ex amination found he had 13 rattles and a button. So I' head my snake story a ."Stand for life.'' 15 B. la reading the snake story of our Correspondent u5. B.,' it briugs to mind one related to us by aunt Abby House not long since. She states that on one occasion whi'e walking a through path from Pony s Church, she saw a large black snake coming towards her, it very naturally frightened her, and she ran with all her speed,-(which she said was faster than gals of the present day can run, she was then only about 18 years of age) and the snake right after her, very soon she came to a small creek that crossed her path, and cousin 'Sally Dilliard'' like, she pre p;iri:u lo vrusa, uutiuu u;nu cau-jumer just as she reached the bank of the I I Pi K 211111 I f II 1 1 1 1 If l 1 (1f I Wl lllllltr II IIII I n i. i t.: self around her Ie in a marncr too tight for comfort. She seized the rep tile by the neck with one hand, and with the other drew her knife from her pocket, which she opened with her teeth and cut off his snakoships head. This in connection with our friend 'B B." communication, makes out two very giod snake stories, Ed, STATE NEWS. - - The State Agricultural Journal, has been sold o Col Jno. T.
