The Poisoning Case at JThitingham.--We re-
Gently copied a paragraph from the Greenhsld
Gazette, relative to the following Of poison
ing That paper Of the 3lst ult., contains these
corrections We some weeks since published. on
the authority ola correspondent, an article stating
that Il was thought that Uri Waste, who died in
that town, had died FROM the effects Of poison
The relations Of Mr. Waste deny that he died from
the effects Of poison, and we understand that they
they have commenced. or will soon commence a
suit for SANDER, against the originator Of the ru-
NOR We have also been threatened with a libel
suit, but as the laws of Massachusetts, which we
live under, exonerate editors FROM blame Ia such
matters when the publication is not made from
any malicious motives, we think whoever sees tit to
sue US will not make much out of the operation
The physician who attended upon Mr. Waste, has
published the following Card in relation to the
case, in the Bellows Falls Argus -

of poisoning in Nottingham, and as the article
makes some alusion TO me, as | was one Of the
physicians that made the posi- mortsm examination
OF the Mr.. Waste that suppose to be meant in
the article, beg leave to make some corrections

wrong. The name was Uri Waste, and his age
was 81. lie was sick months. Again, Mr..
Waste, and his family, said that he drank the ci-
der spoken Of OF his own accord. There has been
q story in circulation that he was poisoned with
dfugged cider, hut wish il distinctly understood
that discovered nothing at the post norton ex-
animation that induces me to believe that he was
poisoned, and made discovery Of no symptoms or
Appearances but what might be the result Of dis
ease | would further state that Drs. Bems Of
CummDgton, Mass. and Dean Of Jacksonville,
who participated in the examination, CONQUERED
with me in saying that they knew Of no poison
that would produce such results"
