The GREAT PoIsoNNG.-I'or ourselves we
have had no doubt, for some weeks, that the
sickness which has already killed several per
sons, and greatly injured the health of many
others, originating at the National III otc
Washington, was really Il case Of DELHI crate
poisoning. We sec the same view is now taken
by physicians in the East, The reasons for it
are obvious. |. 1t was not a case Of mi asma
or ordinary fever. 1t was different in its char
acter and occurred only at one house 2 1t
did not arise from drinking water, for that was
taken through pipes from distance. 3. The
Washington committee report the seweru ge of
that house was no worse than that Of Others
4. The symptoms Of the disease are pre- ciscy
those of arsenic in small quantities; espe cialy
that of lingering on for weeks and mont lbs af
forwards. This is occasioned by the nAa NINA
ton and corrosion Of the stomach, which though
not enough to destroy life at once, yet Cannot
be Immediately healed. In fact, there is ne
reason to doubt that hundreds Of persous were
deliberately poisoned Cm GazeHe.

ine elements Of character honor, generous en-
thusasm and talent, concilatcs favor or b ears
down opposition.

assumed to be the organ Of their sentim ens,
and subscbo myself your friend and servant,

The WALTZ DEsCRlBED.--A Western editor Who's
curiosity led him TO Washington to witness the III
stallation Of a new President, attended the inaugti-
ration ball. That his primrose modosty received a
severe shock is plainly manifested by the following
amusing and very graphic description of the modern
waltzes in vogue:
even Byron called in question, is here ignored as
altogether too cool and distant. The lady here lays
her head on the genteman's BOSOM puts one hand
in his and the other in his coatai pocket then re-
signs herself to his embraces and goes to sleep, all
but her feet which, when not carried by him clear
off the floor goes paiting around on her toes The
gentleman thus entwned throws his head back, and
his eyes up, like dying calf; his body bent in the
shape Of figure four he whirls backs up, swings
around swoons, to all appearances, pushes forward
and leaves the ring TO the delight of all the decent
people,"
