On Tuesday, after the election,
while J. W. (ioodioo was taking
straw oil (corge liamsey's stack, he
turned up a hirj? snake, about five
feet h'nig, resembling a water mocca
sin, with the exception of having two
legs about three inches long within
six inches of its tail. The feet resem
bled those of a si-uirrel. Jt would either
crawl or rear upon its legs and jump
along. 1 1 would show fight. Instead
of coding up and striking like snakes
generally do, it would stain' upon its
feet, balance itself by its tail, and
jump at its enemy. The legs were
covered with hair resembling that of a
gray s uirrel. Jt is sail I that lizards
and squirrels will occupy the same
nest and live together jieaecably.
