The following affecting story is from the Toronto
U. c. Constitution of the 9th inst
A FAMILY PoIsoNED.-Those who feel for
the miseres of others will drop tear when they
name of Smith, resided in Bottoms Field, Toronto
consisting of the father mother and four children,
The eldest girl eleven years of age, another younger
and the boy, went into the woods to gather mush-
rooms, and by mistake gathered toadstools, which
are poisonous. They brought them home, the eId-
est girl cleaned them, the mother cooked them on
the gridiron with salt. The children ate them, and
took sick, first one and then the others-the ply
sicans could do nothing for them-they all died
and last Saturday we hear tbNt the 4th or youngest
infant died also, but not of poison like the others.
| The two children of Mr. Jameson, also Of this
city, out with MIR Smith infants, and one Of
them went to Mr. Smiths ate of the toad -stoDls
with the others, and is since dead and buried.
1t Is truly remarkable how many ways there are
in which death approaches the human family with
his dread summons.

miles from the shore of Lake Erie, and 20
miles from Cleveland, and count no less than
1000 persons under their leader Joe Smith,
They have been lately Joined by shrewd lite
rary person, named Sydney Rigdon, formerly
a preacher Of the doctrine Of Campbell. He
is the grand vizicr to Smith; and under their
decision banking house has been established,
OF which Smith 10 president and Rigdon cash
Ter. The issues have been about $3.50, 00O.--
The bank failed. They have several mills on
their property. The houses are small, inclu-
ding the prophet Joe's. The temple is beau
tifnl building ofrough stone, three stories high.
and 20 to 70 feet square. Each of the two
principal apartments holds 1900 persons. The
joists of the interior are supported by six futed
columns. Each apartment contains six pull
pits, arranged gvGdation, 3 at each end of the
"Aaronic priesthood" and at the other end
Of tho .priesthood of Melchisidic. The slips
are SO constructed, that the audience can face
either pulpit, as may be required. In the high
est seats of the s.Aaronic priesthood, sits the
reverend father of the prophet; the next below
is occupied by "Joe" and his prime minister
Rigdon. The attic story is occupied as school
rooms, five in number, where the various
branches Of English, Latin. Greek, and He
brew languages, are taught TO large number
Of students. The actual cost Of the temple Is
not known, but it is estimated to have cost
not less than OK, 900.
Smith, from the account Of late visit in the
Miami Of the Lake newspaper. is represented
as placid looking knave, with passionless
features, and perfectly composed in the midst
Of the heterogeneous multitude who hays be.

Rigdon is described = the reverse, with face

The subject Of his sermon was the pressure:
