POISONING AT A. PUBLIC DINNER.—Since Wednes-
day last great excitement has existed at Northampton,
in consequence of the sudden illness of several of the
persons who had attended a public dinner at the New
Hall, in Newland-street, which followed the ordination
of the liev. G. Nicholson, 8.A., as the minister of the
Ring-street Dissenting Chapel. The viands were of the
usual substantial kind, and before the cloth was removed
some of the gentlenien were seized with sickness and
vomiting, while others were taken ill at a later period of
the entertainment. One of them, Mr. Cornfield, aged
63, an accountant in the town, expired at five o'clock on
Thursday morning. The dinner was provided by Mr.
Franklin, a townsman, at whose house the whole of the
cooking utensils have been seized by order of the magis-
trates. The inquest has been commenced, and a post
mortem examination of the body of the deceased made,
when a slight appearance of arsenic was detected, but
it required longer time to complete the analysis.
The
inquiry is therefore adjourned until Tuesday. Six
other individuals are still indisposed, but no danger is
apprehended. The cook, a man named Rucdel, is in
custody.
NEPOTISM EXTEAORDINAIIY.—The late Miles
Lester, Esq., of Upton, Gainsborouga, who died a fort.
