An ENTIRE FAMILY PoIsoSED-The entire
family of Mr.. William Dawson, who lives near
Bel Air, were poisoned, last week, by eating
bread supposed to have contained arsenic. On
Tuesday Mr. Davison's daughter, Miss Mary
Dawson, made n quantity Of light bread, and
after baking 1t ate n small piece off Soon af-
forwards she became very sick but her sickness
was not attributed to the bread she had eaten
Some of the bread was placed on the breakfast
table the next morning and two of Mr. Davi-
sons sons, Joseph and Elmer, the gardener
Thomas O'Brien. and colored farm hand who
ate of it, were made very ILL., II was served
again ut dinner when Mr. DAWSON and his son
Samuel also ntc somc of il and became sick
The symptoms In every case were vomiting,
dizziness, sore throat, excessive thirst. &c,
followed by swelling of the stomach and other
portions of the body. Dr. William S Richard
son, who was called in. pronounced the symp-
toms those ofposoning by arsenic Remedies
were administered, and although still suffering
from the effects of the poison, Mr. Dawson and
his family are out of danger
The poison was ut first supposed to have been
placed In the Yeast which was kept in the spring
house A part of the Yeast was used the week he
fore in making bread. which was eaten by the
family and no unpleasant effects followed The
escape Of the family from horrible death is pro-
baby owing to the fact that an unusually large
quantity of bread was made and the poison was
so much dlffused that none of the family got
deadly dose. All Of the yeast was used, but a
loaf Of tie bread has been sent by States Attor-
ney Maynader to Prof Tonry, of Baltimore,
for analysis. The theory that the poison was
placed in the Yeast was partially upset, on Mon
day, when Mr., Davi on, who had eaten some
milk thickened with -four, was again made sick
as before. This would appear to show that the
poison may have been put in the flour ms well
as In the yeast. Judge Waters and States At
torney Maynadier have been Investigating the
matter but no arrests have yet been ordered

gentleman named for the Democratic gubrr.
material nomination besides Governor Ham,

clans appear to be friendly to Mr.. Archer's

twenty one votes of the city of Baltimore in

Mr. Archer, besides being one of the ablest
men in Maryland, is gentleman of incor-
ruptibe integrity and unflinching frmness
of character He possesses in the highest
degree the confidence of the people OF Har-

he would make Governor of whom the

ical alliances with rings or ciques, and is not a
