From the Augusta Constitutionalist. Cure fur the bite of the Vifier, Rattlesnake, Isfc. In great cities, particularly in London a number of persons procure their livelihood by catching Vipers. They are employed by chemists, apothecaries, ike. I remem ber some years before leaving England to have read in the Royal Society in London a curious circumstance of one of these Viper catchers. A member of the Society had received casually, information that a man ; engaged in this business was frequently bit ten, and, that he cured himself by Svvect 1 Olive OB. After a considerable enquiry. | the Viper-catcher was found, and the (mes lions asked whether he dill cure himself by the oil and whether he jvas. willing tosatis- t fy a number of gentlemen of the tact» 1 lie , man answered in the affirmative to botli ques- I lions. Accordingly,a very numerous meeting j of the Royal Society was convened composed , of a considerable number of nobility, sec. the : Viper-catchcr attended accompanied by ^ ls j wite and a large \ iper, and laying lus arm j naked to the shoulder suffered the irritated Reptile to strike, which it did very torn >!y. v —Kis wife permitted the poison to operate * till her husband shcad, tace and tongue weie greatly swollen, his arm ancj face turned \ e- [ ly black, and his senses much anected, when she applied the Oil by pouring a sm.nl quantity down him, and bathing the part ; bitten. Thc man gradually, soon recovered. I This circumstance being strongly impressed, t upon my mind, and knowing the puiso-.i of an English viper w considered in thatcoun try the most yenemous in nature, cetcrmni -1 eil me to try its power in tt'.e bite o. a tnAle ; snake the first o]qmi;tumty that should offer | in the district I reside in. Ini 1< '6, I wa s ' travelling through 1 endl'.ton, S. C. and met ] a man who enquired of me, it 1 could assist | to relieve the pain of a person who had been , bitten by a large Rattle Snake. A ,nu K' sorry for thc man s nusiortune. 1 rejoiced of the opportunity I liwl offered to ascertain I fully the properties of Olive Oil, as an an- ; tuloie to this deadly poison; having a phial : of this Oil in my pocket. I hastened to the j suffering creature, and on seeing lura h-is-ap pearance struck me as the most frightful | object 1 ever befiehl. H's head and bice j was extremely swollen and the latter black. | His tongue proportionally enlarged and ex- . tending out of his mouth; li.s eyes appeal-; ed as it they would shoot tromtaeir sockets his senses gone and every appearance immediate death. He had been bitten on the side of the foot. I mimed, .tely but with j great difficulty poured down urn two table ; spoons »till of the Oil—its effects were al most lustantaiieoiis, and exceeding powei ul ; m counteracting the poison a-, appe wed by the strong though quick convulsions which followed. In about thirty n,mutes it "!>?- j rated strongly, both as an emetic and catiiar- , tic, after which thc swelling of thc head, : ! face, &c. gradually abated, and the tongue' ' began to assume its place. In two hours liej was so far recovered as to articulate, and ! from that time recovered fast, till fie S ot i perfectly over it. The Oil inwardly taken, ; and externally applied, did not exceed seven spoonsful. The number of cases of the like -, nature in 12 years has been considerable, in ! ich Olive Oil has proved itself to be pc culiarlv. adapted and fully adequate to the worst "of cases, if timely applied. It is a remedy which every person can command, (when others can't be procured,) and ought not to be without; indeed many cautious per- ; sons have carried a smalt phial of Gil con stantly, about them. It has also been used j with equal success, when horses, cattle, (logs, &c. have been bit. One case 1 was credibly j informed has occurred where the Olive Oil j succeeded, when given to a woman who had | been bitten by a small dog, and who cxliib- ' ited strong symptoms of Hydrophobia, can hardly excuse myself of criminal neg lect in having so long omitted to make thus public this sovereign remedy for the of poisons. The knowledge of the efficacy ofthe Olive Oil abundantly diffused In the (listriels of Pendleton and partially so in some of the adjoining districts, and wishing it to beknown generally, caused me so write these remarks for publication. The following curious article, is extract ed from a volume of Travels in Kussai and Swedcn, by Mr. Holman the blind traveller,. i iust published in London:— -1 went over the celebrated Wine Cel >ar rid the Lead Cell, so called on account ofthe lead ised for the Cathedral having formerly been placed in it.

It proved that her relatives did not think lier worth a funeral, ! nor did the Senate feel desirous to incur thc expense of one suitable to lier rank, and therefore it w.,s determined to ict her re main in statu gut, and which she has done for three hundred years. Since this tune j other corpses have been deposited in this cellar.—Amongst the rest, a plumber, fifty years of age, who fell from off the steeple, and severed his head from his body; this is said to have lain three hundred years; an English countess, eighty years of age, he- 1 longing to the Stanhope family, who died of ; a cancer, which has been in the vault two , hundred years; a Swccdish General and Ins ] adjutant, who were killed near Bremen dur ing the seven years' war; a cannon shot wound m the side of the latter re yet visible; i also a student, who tell in a duel about the same time; the wound of the sabre is yet j preceptible on the left shoulder, und the ; 0 silken band of the garland made by his fair , friends, in to .en of his affectionate iate yet remains.

Application was made this week, in this town, f or ass i s tance in making outthe neces savy documents for n pension by one of the bargemen in the barge, that conveyed Gen eral Arnold to the sloop of war Vulture. He wa5 bow-oarsman, and next in rank to the coxswain, whose name was James Larvey. His memory is remarkably accurate, and his v <. racity is „„questionable. He is a brother 0 f Mr. James Collins, of this town. The day j before the flight of Arnold the barge bro't j him with Major Andre from LawycrSmith's j beloiv Stony Point to the General's head j quarters. They conversed very little dur jug the passage. The General told his aid, who was at the landing when they arrived that lie had brought up a relation of his wife. Arnold kept one of his horses constantly ca parisoned at the door of his quarters, and the next morning, soon after breakfast, lie ™, c (lown in g" e ' at baste with the coxswain : 1)st behind him on foot. The coxswain cry- i j ni r P ut to the Irargemen to come out from their quarters that were hard by, and the Ge"„al dashed down the footpath, instead 0 ( taking a circuit, the usual one tor those wl)0 were mount ed. The barge was soon ma dc ready, though the General in his impa ticnce repeatedly ordered the bow-man to , m shoff, before nil tbc men had mustered. Tlle sît ,idle and holsters were taken oil board the barge, and Arnold, immediately after they had pushed off, wiped the prim ing from the pistols and primed anew, cock ed and half cocked them repeatedly. He inquired of'Collins if the men had theirarms, a '» d wus tol< ,' tl,:lt thc ) r f , a '" c , m ? ucl > ?? ste -* l,,re were but two swords belonging to linn self and the coxswain. | hey ought to have bronghttheir arms he said. He tied a white handkerchief to the cml of lus cane for a 3;1 Sm passing the forts. On arriving along tbc^ ulture lie took it off and wiped his »ace. I lie (.encrai had been down the cabin about an hour, when the coxswain was sent f,ir ' mul by tlie Mginficant looks and laugh mg of the ofticers, the men in tnc barge be B; 11110 be apprehensive that nil was not right.
