ENGEM* OPERA horse.—The yet-Fort/Ince of Mr. MATrrrr;
last night went off with increase 1 t ffect. The [louse diq!ayeti a
crowded and fashionable audience. The noise and buqie GE
their carriages and servants rendered the Strand in the (nu t of

him oxalic acid instead, which the deceased took, and soon after
expired. Thomas Wheatley (the foreman to Messrs [Aiwall

shop, accompanied by Dr. Pugh; when the boy, who could tut
read, pointed out a drawer, whence he had taken the FA,lnous
drug, which was marked " oxalic acid ;" and whir there, a
Gentleman came in who had suffered, but in a mitiga:ed de-
gree, from a like cause. The antidotes Dr. I ugh gave ta the

ceased. John Richardson, the boy, was then examined; hc had
never been authorized to serve, and bad only been engaged a

clared they had never authorized the porter to serve.—The Co-
roner and Jury were satisfied the death was the effect of acci-
dent, and gave a verdict accordingly.
