HORRIBLE Poisoning Case.-The Dadeville
(Alabama) Banner publishes the following
particulars of most harrible poisoning
case
We have just heard the particulars of a
most horrible poisoning case, that is repOr
ted te have transpired in Barbour county
the parties interested being movers from this
county to Florida. 1t seems that about one
month ago, Floyd knight, in company with
his wife, son, and Mr.. Phillips, started
from this county tie seek employment in
Florida. When they arrived in Barbour,
they stopped Gas the story runs) at branch
to get some water, and to take something
to drink" Some poisonous drug, prussic
acid, we hear reported however, had heen
previously instilled in the bottle by his wife,
SON and Phillips. After drinking, knight
sat down by tree on the roadside-the 9th
err three drove 0n--and, in few momen is
some one passing by, discovered Knight in
dying condition. Assistance was rendered
him, but " as useless.
A siekening case of foggipg recently oc-
Cured at Chatham, England. A private of
the ssth Connsught, Rangers, named Nor
ton, who was decorated with the Sebastopol
medal, returned home wounded from India,
short time ago, aud was awaiting the err
der for his discharge. He appears to have
always borne somewhat indifferent charac-
ter, and on the evening Of the 7th ult., he
struck a sergeant. For this ofteRce he was
sentenced - receive 50 lashes, and be i'm
prisoned for one hundred and sixty eight
days, and though it rained heavily at the
time, the wounded wretch was undressed
and fastened up to the triangles,: when the
full number OF lashes were administered: AS
soon as he is able to leave the hospital he
will undergo the remainder of bis sentence
at Fort Clarence Prison.
