PoIsONED.-Ou the evening Of the 18th
inst, Mrs. Hurlburt, sister of Ethan
Allen, went into room where some cab.
bages had been stored, and plucked leaf
from one and ate 1t, though she thought
she discovered peculiar taste. Soon
after she complained Of feeling strangely,
and very soon noticed that her lips were
swollen. The PAIN in her stomach was
terrible, aud salt and water was admins
tered which produced free emesis (vomit-
iDg) and gave sons relief. In the
meantime DR.. Hendrlck had been sum.
moned, and in short time relief was OBJ
tanned so that no more serious results will
follow. An examination of the cabbage
showed that it was Infested with the cab
bage worm, to which is attributed the
source of the poison. Too much care can.
not be used in preparing this vegetable
for the table, for nearly all of them con-
tain these worms, and all should especial
ly avoid eating them in the dark, as did
this lady.
1t has been ascertained that the pres.
euce of the worm in the cabbage does not
infect it, and is seldom found inside Of
good solid heads So that if carefully
examined and thoroughly washed, no fear
Of being poisoned oy the use of such need
be entertained.
AT a late meeting of Lamoile Cen.
trail Grange p. of e., committee APP
pointed for the purpose, presented the
following preamble and resolutions rela-
tive to the death of Lucy A. Thompson,
the wife of Judson Thompson. Esq, Of
this town.
1t being. emineutly fit. to perpctuate
the memory of our departed sister. Lucy
A. Thompson-,the first of our number
whom the Great Master has removed to
that Grange beyond the River. and to
commemorate her virtues and many
good qualities, by spreading on our rec.
Ords tribute, We therefore resolve.
That 10 her death, we lose valuable
and highly esteem ed member, whose atil-
ity and wisdom made her good Matron,
and whose loss we can lily sustain.
That her literary ability. and the deep
interest and almos. incessant work for the
cause of education, renders her death a
cause for regret 10 the community as well
as In the Grsnge.
That we tender our fullest sympathy to
our brother, the bereaved husband, and
to tie children thus orphaned in token
of which we present them with copy Of
these sentiments.
The subject of the above resolutions,
thou Oh not familiar 10 name to our read
ers has often addressed them in pungent
and able articles over the non de plume Of
sally Safer" aud her writings will be
doubtless, greatly missed. She invented
and copyrighted a series of Geographical
Games which were very instructive aud
entertaining to the young. We fully con-
cur in the sentiment of the resolution
that her death is loss to the community
" well as the grange.
