flock of sheep, together with • general cargo, and when
she left the Clyde she had on board 1,700 sheep, besides 18
paseeogar4, principally shepherds. It appears that the
crow rod passengers, with 80J sheep, were saved from the

TILE SHIELDS Poisom.wo CASE.—The excitement
consequent on the case of alleged accidental poisoning in
North Shields continues unabated. At the resumed in-
quest. on Thursday, some impo-tent evidence wail given.
and the question promises to furnish • theme for animated
discussion in scientific circles. Under the supervision of
Mr. Newton and Mr. Pattinson the chemical analysis of
the viscera taken from the body of Mrs. Gilheapie, the
deceased woman, has hese completed, and some interesting
facts have been revealed. In the case of the stomach
and duodenum, the crystals of strychnine were dis-
tinctly sees ; and with a portion of the residue ob-
tained from these sources, dissolved in • drop of ascetic
acid and a little water, some experiments, followed
by startling effects, were made ; the most singular phe-
nomenon being that produced upon a frog, which, on
the application of several drops of the solution to
the skin, was subjected to violent convulsions, and died at
the expiration of half-an-hour. These matters baring been
placed before the jury, Dr. Fenwick, medical attendant of
the late lady, and from whose emery the fatal draught is
stated to Lave been obtained, was examined. In the pre-
scription which he had prepared, and which he read to the
court. no poisonous ingredient was contained, arid, indeed,
be affirmed that be bad not prescribed strychnine for some
months previously. The symptoms exhibited by Mrs. Gil-
lespie prior to death were not, he thought, such as to war-
?set the assumption that the reception of poison into the
stomach had been the cause, and attributing the fatal result
to congestion of the lungs, he gave a certificate accordingly.
So far this opinion was borne out by Mr. Newton, surgeon,
el Newcastle, who, having inspected the pulmonary organs,
expressed his belief that Dr. Fenwick might have mistaken
the case for one of fibrous bronchitis. Further, however, the
matter did out proceed, the inquiry being again adjourned.—
