to Be organized throughout the North

"On Thursday, April 23d, 1868, We shall be

sounds significant, in connection with
the above:

Foustain Kelly and his vile. Of this
placs, were almost fatally poisoned. on
Thursday evening last. in the following
msunsr: Mrs Kelly. iu preparing to bake
biscuit for supper. dipped spoonful Of
common baking soda out of . paper
which had been purchased It the store.
ssd found among it, lump which did
not sxseily resemble the bal.ucs Of tbs
soda. asd which abe found hard to dis
solve. Still. not thinking but that twas
all right. shs pulvsrissd it. put Il in tbs
tray. aud made the biscuit. They failed
to become light. and their look was not
tempting. Sitting down TO supper. they
each ate . small portion Of biscuit. bu'
the tass was disagreesble. and they push.
ed them. aside. Pretty soon they both
became very sick with burning and
crsmpiug in the -stomsch. Mrs. Kelly
vomited freely. and felt relieved. and ha,
not seriously suffered since. But bel
husband did not vomit, and suffered
greatly. his gums snd the glands Of th'
mouth snd throat becoming sore and swol
len. sad sxerucisting psins flying through
all parts Of his systsm. A physician wa
sent for. who administered remedies. snt
he is now able to be mp. but is very veal
snd emscisted. 1t may be weeks o.
months before he is able to work. snt
will probably feel the effects Of the poas0l
for life.
The poison must have been very pow
erfnl, as it VISA but small lump in th
6rst place. mixed through 8 quantity o
-four. and very small portion Of . bis
cult eaten BY each person. Fortunatsl!
The children ate noEe of it, and thus es
capped. The doctor thinks. from tn
symptoms. that the poison was corrosiv
sublimate. But how it got there. is
mystery. as they had no poison sbont tn
house. none is kept at the store wher
the soda was purchased, and II is hardl.
probable that soda and corrosive subli
mate were m Manufactured in the same es
tablishment. Other persons who use'
soda taken from the same keg. have suf
fered no Inconvenience from its use.
