Alleged Poi.onlpg y .As U.a Of BE Cog...

A German family Of eight persons residing
in Amity street, Brooklyn. have recently been
subjcct to violent nervous headaches. dizziness,
and uneasiness at nights, with other symptmOs
indicating that they had eaten or drank Of a
poisinous character. The female portion of
the family were particualry affected DR.. Pal
medO, the family physician was consulted. and
after considerable inquiry he ascertained that
tue sickness resulted from the use Of some pow
erful vegetable poison. He called upon DR..
L3usi Bauer, the Health Officer, ard they to
gether made an analysis of the several articles
OF food the family we're in the habit Of usiRg.
and found in the material known az rye cofFso
the presence of Ergot (blasted or diseased
+, and of poisonous weeds which grow in
rye fields.
The deleterious substance is not powerful
enough, however, to cause death, unless taken
in large doses. or by frequent use, as in the
case Of the family alluded 10, who freely par.
took Of the article at nearly erery meal. DR..
Bauer becoming satisfied Of the danger of the
cnmunity that might possibly result from the
continued use of compound of this nature.
prohibited the sale Of any Of the packages
from which the sick family had made the eOF-
fee which psisoned them. The use OF the ar
ticle having been abandoned by ths afflicted
persons, their general health is rapidly improv-
ing. The physicians who examined iuto the
matter are of the opinion that the rye used in
the manuGcture OF the coffee used by this fam
lily was of an inferior quality, from the fact that
it had not been properly cleaned of the seeds
ef poisonous weeds,-L New York Tribune.

LOOKING OUT FOB sLIGHTs.

The local of the Philadelphia Led ger speaks
by the cards when he says there are some
people always looking out for sights. They
cannot pay visit, they cannot receive friend
they cannot carry on the daily intercourse of
the family. without thinking SONS offence is
designed. They are as touchy as hair trig
gers. If they meet an acquaintance in the
street, who happens to be occupied with bus
iness, they attribute his abstraction to some
motive personal TO themselves, and they take
umbrage accordingly. They lay on others
the fault of their own irritabiity. A fit of
Indigestion makes them see impertinence in
every person they come in contact with. In
nocent persons, who never dreamed of giving
offence, are asst )nished to find that some un-
fortunate word, or some n1omentary taciturui-
ty has been mistaken for an insult.
To say the least, the habit is unfortunate.
It is far wiser to take the more charitable
view of our fellow beings, and not suppose a
slight intended, unless the neglect is open and
direct. After all, too, life takes its hue iu a
great degree, from the color of our minds
If we are frank and generous, the world treats
US kindly. IF, on the contrary, we are suspi-
cious, men learn to be cold and cautious to US
| Let a person get the reputation of being
teuchy, and everybody is under more or less
restraint in his or her presence; and in this
way, the chances of an imaginary ofense are
vastly increased. Their jauadiced tempers de-
stroy their own comfort, as well as that OF
their friends. They have forever some faacied
slight to brood over. The sunny, serene con
tentment of less selG-h dispositions never visits
them,

The Curse of a Divided Union.

The New York STA well says, if anything
were wanting to prove the madness and folly
of the dis,enSiol that di'lrac;s the North re-
speoting the prosecution Of the war, the jubi-
liant remarks of the Southern press would sure
ly suffice. All the late rebel papers eXult in
the increasing bitterness Of party feeling u
mongst US and point to it as an indication of the
iardy but effective growth Of that Northern
sympathy with rebellion, on which the seces
sion leaders so largely counted.
When enemies and traitors rejoice at oul
conduct it is time to take warning. The en-
emy hopes to gain by our divisions more thar
they.could ever achieve by their victories. i
should be the first duty Of patriots TO foregr
all minor differences and cultivate union Tor tht
sake of the Union. A departure from this pol
icy has made good men almost despair Of thei
country, and alf6rds pleasure to none but tht
open or concealed foes Of our country,

A English Opinion OF American Fighing-NO
General Yet.

The London Army and Navy Gazette, cd
tied by Russell, the Times correspondent, has
an article upon the character Of the Generals
engaged in the American war, in which it is
asserted that no real General has yet appear
I'd upon either side. Testimony is given TO the
bravery and stability of the common soldier,
and the statement nude, which is too true
that while there are mlny excellent leaders
of division, brigade, regiment or squadron
there has yet arisen no Napoleon. The wri-
ter again says that the chances Of success have
been decidedly with the COnfederaies, but
they have had no leader capable Of improving
them, ITO stand and fight has been their
great strategy. Not one Of them seems to
have made campaign with purpose; not
one has had the capacity to understand the
value of victory" OF West Point Russell
says. "West Point s the nursery Of incapa
bles the most conspicuous failure as train
ing school for soldiers the world has ever seen
and if it is true thae General, like poet
is born and not made, 1t must be admitted
that as yet the New World has not been Wis
tied by the terrible genius to whom is duC
the patronage Of cOnquerors aud heroes"

about twenty FIVE per cent, and is still rising =
and when we tell our Democratic friends, cnndid-
Iy, that we can no longer afford to sell the "Week-

must add fifty cents or stop the publication, we
trust they will appreciate our position, and, in
stead of withdrawing their subscriptions, 90 to
work with o will to increase our list IN every
county in the state. We have ondcayorcd, and
shall continue our efforts to make the paper use
ful ms n party organ, and welcome as a news
messenger in every family. We fatter ourselves
that it has not been without some influence in
prod ucing the glorious revolution in the politics
of the State achieved at the late election and if
fearlessness in tho discharge Of duty, fidelity to
the principles Of the party, aud an anxious desire
to promote its interests, with some experience
and n moderate degree Of ability, can be made
seryiceablo hereafter, the Weekly Patriot and
Union will not be less useful to the party or
less welcome to the family circle in the future

cd encouragement in this great enterprise, and
appeal to every Influential Democrat in the State
to lend Us his mid in running onr Subscription list
M to twenty or thirty thousand. The EXPENSE to
each individual is triaing, the ben eft to the par
ty may be great. Believing that the Democracy
Of the State feel the necessity of sustaining a
fearless central organ, we make this appeal to
them with the fullest confidence Of success.
The same reasons which indL &c us to raise the
price Of the Weekly, operate ia regard to the
Daily paper. which has also increased. The adj
fitional cost to each subscriber will be but triaing
and, while we cannot persuade ourselves that
the change necessarily made will result in any
diminutiun of our daily circulation, yet, were we
certain that such would be the consequence, we
should still be compelled to make it, or sufr3r a
ruinous loss. Under these circumstances We
must throw ourselves upon the generosity, or,
rather the justice of the public, and abide their
verdict, WI. tcver it may be.
The period for which many of our subscribers
have paid for their paper being on the eve of
expiring, We take the liberty of issuing this no.

they may
