eral health is better than it was for some
time. I feel under many obligations to
you, and hope you may be as successful
with all of your patients as you have been
with my daughter.

A singular and, if report speaks true, very
valuable discovery has just been made at
Cincinnati. 1t seems that q man upset his
kerosene lantern into his mealbin, and he
noticed afterwards that his hogs ate the
damaged fodder with avidity This gave
him an idea, and by experiment he found
that five weeks feeding with the kerosene
mixture made one of his hogs so fat that it
could scarcely stand. The animal was then
tried into lard with the following result:
When cool, the lard did not CONCEAL, but
the addition of n certain amount of potash
resolved the contents Of the kettle into three
distinct substances-the first light, trans
parent OIL better than kerosene or sperm
oil; the second jelly-like substance, which
turned to soap; aud last, small residnm of
insoluble muscle. John Smith" is the
name OF the reported experimenter.
Gen. Gordon recently addressed the peo-
pie of Albany and Americus, on the subject

DAsrARpLY ATrEMPr TO Poison A
WHOLE FAMILY. We learn that dnring
the latter portion OF last week gentle
man OF this city received from q neigh
boring city by express, box containing
Il small quantity oI granulated sugar and
a number of oranges. The man at first
supposed it to be an agreeable surprise
from some kind friend In exsminin.
the fruit however, his wife discovered
that the oranges had been punctured.
This aroused a shade of susp cion and
the gentleman conveyed q portion OF the
sugar to a scientific chemist, stating the
circumstances and requesting an anaiy-
sis.
The chemist proceeded with the neccs
sary process, and discovered in about
two ounces OF the sugar oi stry Gimme
enough 10 kill five men.
1t WAS undoubtedly a deliberate at
tempt at the most da,tardIy of crimes
tie murder Ola whole family by poison.
A single teaspoontul in cup OF tea
would doubtless have caused death.
No effort should be spared to ferret
out the monster who could be guilty of
a crime like this Portland Argus.
