THE CIVET CAT, 72, LORD-STREET.

OUTRAGEOUS I—A man lately died in Kentucky so tarns-
ciously tall, that it took two clergymen and a boy to preach
the funeral sermon.

POISONING A FAMILY. The family of Mr. Joseph
Powell, farmer, of Edmonton, have, within the last few
days, miraculously escaped being poisoned to death. The
particulars, as far as they have transpired, are as follow :
lqrs. Powell, who is in a delicate state of health, has been
accustomed to take for supper a basin of new milk boiled.
This was brought to her by the female servant on Tuesday
night last. She took a spoonful or two, and complained
that the taste was disagreeable, and that it made her feel
sick. Her two sons each tasted it. They then called in
the girl, and desired her to do the same. but she manifested
great reluctance, and said that she had had her supper, and
had no wish for anything more. The mistress and her sons
then said, `‘ If you do not taste a spoonful or two we shall
think you have put something bad in it ;" upon this she
took a portion, when they all became ill, Mrs. Powell alarm-
ingly so, being seized with violent retching, and complaining
of a burning pain in the throat and stomach. A medical
man was immediately sent for, and partial relief was afforded,
but the life of Mrs. Powell is considered in much danger;
she is unable to leave her bed. The servant girl, also, is in
a precarious state. The basin containing the milk has been
preserved, And found to contain arsenic, as well as the pan
from whence it was taken. There is much mystery in the
transaction. The girl is too ill yet to give any testimony.
