Is TEA POISOSOUs?

Persons unaccustomed to drinking tea
are aware of the peculiar sleeplessness
which follows an indulgence in the bever-
age. This effect is due to an alkaloid
which exists in tea, known to scientific
men by the name of "theine." A medical
student in Boston recently tried some ex-
periments with this substan &c, the result Of
which he describes as follows:
L took myself theme or. xii, at about
2 P. NJ, by the mouth, and about two hours
after there came on state of great physi-
cal restlessness, and at the same time a
very uneasy state of mind, which Leh-
mann describes in this connection as a
mental anguish Soon after, there was a
tremulousness, most marked in my hands
and arms. On attempting to write and con-
troll the muscles of the hand, the hand
trembled 80 violently that it was impossible
to write with any regularity, nor could it
be restrained for more than a few seconds.
My mind was also in an excessively I'M
comfortable and anxious state, which adj
mitted not the slightest rest, whether | sat
or lay or attempted reading. This lasted
perhaps two hours, when there we're no
other phenomena, except sleeplessness.
until A. NJ, having gone to bed at 10.
Meanwhile, the mind was in a state of
most active and persistent thinking, in
spite of all attempts at forgetfulness."
The same substance, injected under the
skin Of toads, produced death in a very
short time, and the ezperimenter came TO
the conclusion that theme Is to all intents
anC purposes poison. Still, tea-drinker'
will probably say, as the tobacco chewei
die. when told that tobacco was a poison
off it be poison, it is very slow ONE

ALOYALJU JUROR.

Under the protection of the Freedmen s
Bureau and the teaching of the loyal
Fetish, the negroes of the South commit
more crime every week than the aggregate
crime among them during the two huns
dred years of slavery. Rape, robbery
and murder are daily occurrence. Still,
amid all the outrages committed there has
been a good deal Of the ludicrous not un.
worthy the HaVersack.
When the order came from the Big Boss
of each of the five districts" to put ne
groes on the jury, the colored brethren
were not slow to learn that the pay was
two dollars per day. Many of them
walked ten and fifteen miles to town,
saying that they had come to zine the
jury" One of these, who may bear the
generic name of Pompey Squash, did get
on the jury. During the whole trial, he
sat meditating upon the goodness of the
Big Boss in letting him have a chance to
get his twO dollars day He understood
not 4 word that was said by the witnesses
and lawyers, but his meditations were,
nevertheless, sweet upon the forthcoming
greenbracks. de ole woman shill git q
rael, shore huff caliker froek, and shan

white trash In the midst ofthese pleas
ant reflections, the Judge gave a solemn
charge to the jury, explaining the points
of law and enjoining them TO discharge
their duty faithfully. The jury retired
to their room. "Did you understand the
Judges charge, Mr.. Squash {" asked one
of the jurors. Instantly Pompeys face
became a shade blacker, his eyes rolled
in his head, and the whites Of his eyes
looked like snow flakes on a coal pile
"Bless de Lord, is de Judge chargin US
l tot we wos a gwine to git pay p
We will conclude the anecdote We
never liked the style, "the rest Of this
thrilling story is to be found in Bonner s
Ledger next week" Cloe got her "rael
caliker frock," and looks down, with
queenly contempt, on ode white trash.

HEAVY DAMAGES CLAIMED.

An Important Action Against Dry
Goods Merchants of New YOrk-sSO,-
900 Damages Claimed for Malicious
Prosecution.
An important action ia on trial in the
Supreme Court Circuit of Brooklyn New
York, before Judge Gilbert, in which near
ly one hundred dry goods merchants of
New York are interested. The action was
brought against the merchants by Mr..
Leonard G.. Klinck, who claims 5000
damages for false imprisonment and mali
cious prosecution. 1t appears, as shown in
the complaint, that Mr.. Klinck was arres-
ted on the 18th Of November, 1866, in the
city of New York, on the complaint of the
defendants, Charles L. Harding and some
seVenty-fve others, who charged him with
having conspired TO defraud them out of
goods; tharthey did so for the purpose of
injuring his good name and bringing him
into public disgrace; that they combined
together to prosecute him, caused him to
be brought before Justice Hogan and i'm
prisoned for six days; that he had to give
bail in $500 for his appearance. On the
18th of February, 1867, he was held 10 ap-
pear at the Court of Special Sessions He
was tried there on the Goth of February,
1867, and was acquitted.
1t appears the trouble grew out of the
alleged failure of the dry goods firm of
Fogler & Tibb7, of New York, and the de
PENDANTS in the present action suspecting
the plaintiff Klinck was in with them
caused his arrest with others. Klinck kept
a store in Cincinnati, and was in the habit
or occasionally received consignments from
them, but so far az shown knew nothing OF
their business in New York.
