not. exactly on poisons, but rather the
subject of poisoning, mid its ejects upon
the human system helore mid utter death.
[ would also ask attention to the celebra
ted Praleo- case* which was a cn*e
of apnoplexy, and in which there was u
conviction for poisoning by acid,
based upon an umlehned odor present in
the body, at the liine tlie cliemlcul anal
vaia was made, eix or seven days alter
death, and also upon some coloration ob
served during the anlysis. An abstract 0.l
the case an thed report made to the court
will be found in Chrlstison on poisons, p.
531 o iyo Taylor on poisons,edition of 1800,
p 1557. Ills mentioned In ihb Prateecuse
The entire history of the case, ami the
facts upon which the person chanred
with the polrtoiuiutf was finally acquitted
will he found in Orrtla’s treatise upon
Toxle 1 >uy, Purls, 1862, vo‘, 2, p. 364.--
This epitome Inund in Ohr»silaon and
Taylor gives the principal facts in the
case, excepting the grounds of the clu ml
cul evidence. The body usually exhales
the odor of prussic acid, after death* The
face Is livid, the body rigid, and frothy
matter is usually found around the
mouth. These are the principal exter
nal appearances. The blood vessels ol
the brain and Jungs are usually engorg
ed • the stomach Is flometim. s reddened
in col »r; the liver spleen and sometimes
the kidneys are congested. This latter
conditlmils so common that Casper stales
2 vol. p. 63 that congestion of the II ver,
kidneys and inferior cava has been al
ways present. The veluous system
throughout the body, are engorged with
bh'od,'while the arteries are empty. The
blood throughout the body is usually
liquid and of a dark color. The hr><in
and internal organs, and more especial
ly the blood, exhales the odor of prussic
acid. In regard to post mortem appear
ances I would refer to Ta r dieir, p. 1035
Taylor on poisons, 040. In regard lo the
import of the staring condition of the
eve continuing long after death, I would
refer lo (Jhriatlson p. 596. Too atari in;
expression of toe eye is so peculiar tlmi
it has been claimed by s-une to furnish
proof of the evidence of death froip prps
blc acid. This condition, however, has
been observed In death from other causes
Turdieu is coasirtered one of the greater
if not toe greatest living authorities upon
the subject of poisoning, his persona
experience being perhaps only second to
time of t ie late Casper. I mean in regard
to the symptoips and post mortem ap
peu.aicesof poisoning. The dark, fluid
blood is common to all cases of sudden
death. It Is not peculiar to cases of puis
oniugby prussicaeii', It has been claim
ed that, in dea<h. from prussic acid, the
blood has a rather peculiar bluish up
pearunce. I could not designate ans *
time during which this fluid condition
would continm*. I heard Prof. Aiken’s
testimony. For the detection of prussic
acid, we have several tests. The in
recent la that proposed by Sohroeter.
which depends upon a blue color produc
ed on paper, or Imparted to paper In
prussic, toe paper having pieviously been
moistened with a solution ofgiacum atw
sulphate of copper. This test has vein
recently been proposed, and Is’said to h»«
exceeding y delicate; us yet, however. I
have had no practica experience us to
the real delicacy of the lest, ami the fal
luciea to which it may be subject.—
Tim silver test consists in the production
of a white precipitate of cyanide of silver,
when a solution of nitrate of silver is ad
ded to a solution containing prussic acid.
The reagent will also produce wniti? pre
cipitates when added to solutions con
taming hydro-chloric aci< 1 , phosphate*,
carbonates, or one of severa oilier salts.
The cyanines of silver 1s readily dlstin
gnished fjom all these white precipitates,
excepting that from hydn -chloric acid,
in that they are readily soluble in cold
diluted nitric acid. The cyanide of sil
ver, when present In notable quantity,
may be distinguished from the chloride
of silver in t *at it isinsolublein amnion
ia. A very small precipitate, however,
of cyanide of silver might speedily disap
pear under the action of ammonia. The
chloride and cyanide of silver may uls
be distinguished by washing and drying
the precipitate, and heating it in a tube,
having a contrated or capillary m*C',
when the cyanide of silver would give
otTCyanogen gas, which, it ignited, would
burn with a rose colored flame. This
lest, wlYPii iipplledto prUMsloueld in solu
tion, will produce a visible re ictiou if the
solution contains even no more than the
one hundred one thousand part of it*
weightof the poison ; ami this result may
be observed if only one drop of the solo
tlon be experimented upon. The meth
od of distinguishing between the cyan
de and the chloride of silver, by neuiinu
and observing whether an inflanntble
gas is produced, will, with care, serve l<*
indicate the 500th pari of a gr-du of pros
sic acid. The silver test, for the detec
tion of the vapor of prussic acid, is tin
next general eu ject. When a solution
of nitrate of silver is exposed to the v.-«-
por of pruBS : C acid, the liquid speedily
acquires a white film of tue cyanide ol
silver which is eystulline in its form us
thus produced. Although there are sev
eral other vapors that may produce, an
der the same conditions—such as chlor
ine, iodine, bromine —a.whit-- or whitish
film or deposit—that resulting from these
latter is death uteol crys alii tie form—that
Is amorphous. Tito crystalline form,
therefore, serves to distinguish toe acti m
ol the vapor of prussic acid from th a ol
all other substances, in this manner,
the vapor from one grain of liquid con
taining only the l,tJol)th part of u
grain of prussic acid \Viii yield, undei
tiie microscope, as satisfactory evidence
of prussic acid uy any other quantity ol
the poison however large. 1 mean that
it would be us satisfactory evidence of the
presence V>f the poison, as a few grains of
wheat would be of the character ot the
grain as a bushel would be. Plate 4, .fig
-20, of Wormly, represents the appear
ance of one hundred thousuuth part of n
grain uit ter the microscope. Although
the sliver test has been u loug time
known, that when a solution ot nitrate
of silver was exposed to the action of the
vapor of prussic add, a white film or de
posit was formed, yet, so fur as I know,
that the deposit was crystalline in its nu
ture, was notobaerveduntil 57. The mere
fuel that it was crystullive is stated by.

Ho oilier systematic w*mK mi the subject
of poisons, excepting my own, tiiai f eat*
oi this method of the application of the
teat AM the facta relating to this teat,
as detailed in my own work, are the* re
sults of a long series of experiments by
myself. The iron teat will next be con
stiieied.* This depends upon the produc
tion of Prussian bim , when a solution of
prussic add is trealfd with cauatio pol
ish and a solution of a proto and
combination of iron, hydrow chloric
amil being then added to dissolve the
•precipitated oxids of iron. The only
precautiou necessary in the application
of this test is that a sutticlentquautity ol
hydrochloric acid be added to re-dis
solve these oxides of iron, us the precipi
tate from these may have a blue cotot
even iu the absence of the production of
Prussian blue. I would refer to my oivn
work, page 181. The prussian blue pro
duced from very dlliute solutions of prus
sic acid has at first a greeuish color, but
fioaliy, after many hours, subsides as a
blue deposit, even if ouly the 25,0U0th
pun of a grain of hydro cyanic acid be
present, iu one grain of dq-dd. This
Prussian blue is very permanent, and
can be preserved for any length of time,
as is usual y done in medico-legal inves
tigations. The sulphur test consists in
treating the prussic acid solution witii a
solution of yellow snlphuretof ammonia,
w .en aulplto-oyaiilde of ammonia wdlbe
produced, which alter driving otf the ex
. cess of sulphur by moderate heat, will
produce a deep blood xvd color, when
treated with the per salt of iron. From
very dilute solution this test produces
only a faint red color. But even one
dro»of the solution, containing the 10,-
OUUth part of a grain of prussic acid, will,
under tue action of (he lest, yield an
orange red coloration. This test may al
so be uppiie i to the detection of the va
por of prussic ;.cid. The fallacies attend
ing this lest ore mecouicacid and alkaline
acetates, the former of which wid also
striae a blood-red color, utiuer the action
of the test, whist the latter may piuduce
ft coloration which, might easily bo con-
tuumlud with that pn,iluceil with v-rv
dl ute solution.-of p.-usidoiicld. It there
loro becomes! necessary iu nil cases to de
cide to which ot those substances tile
red coloration is duo. If it bo
due to hydrociuiilc acid, it would
ie .quickly ilmc.mrged by a solution ol
corrosive sublimate, whilst if due to the
presence of meconic acid it would under
go no cu mge, under th- action of this re
uaeot. Aauiu, tlieooloratiou duo to prus
sic acid resisis the action of diluted hy
drochloric uc-i.l, wlille that due lo ine
cooic acid and the alkaline acetates 1-
quickly discharged by this acid. The
nooks state that this lest when applied to
the detection of the vapor otprus.-doucid
is tree from uuy fallacy. That is true
upon ihc assumption that tile reagent
aie free Irom prussic acid iu any form,
mcconloaoiduiid alkaline acetates which
cun only, h. wever, be established by di
rect proof. In this case there has been
nothing done lo establish the absolute
purity of the reugentsaud the vesselseiu
ployed lu the chemical analysis, so far as
1 understand the testimony. It is well
known that the sulphuret of ammo

whether the poison was present. If ei

the subslauce submitted to examination,
suould this method to reveal the pro-ence
of the poison, the suspected substance
might be introduced luto a retort, taking

If tue poison should now be detected in

it existed in Us free slate, or in ihe form
ot au alkaline cyanide, in the substance

the action of prussic acid, and wen ii
pi-usMcucid was inund in the distillation
it would he impossible, in a chemical
pbinlof view, tn state that poison existed

prussic acid, exists norm.illy in liuuuii

meals upon this "subject are those of Fe
reira. I refer to editiou of 1854 vol. 1, p.
1033. Fer chloride of iron produces a
red coloration with meconic add, and
Dr. Chrlstison held that this red coinra
uon was sulticieuily characteristic to
prove the presence of that subject. Prof,
Feruira contended, on the other hand,
mat the production of the red coloration
-vas not sufficient iu itself to prove tlie
presence of this substance, since the sul
pno-cyunides would also ptoduce a red
coloration under the action of the
iron reagent; and moreover that
one of ih‘i-6 sulpho-cyunides, the
me sulpiio cyanide of potash was fre
queutly found in the contents of the

no examined a number of bodies in tue
dissecting room, ntul his results were mac
in-a large majority ot cases, he found that
the saivaand the contents of the*t»m

phuric acid, I refer to my own work,
page 189, where the subject is discussed
at considerable icngtli and also to Taylor
on poison*, page 680, where he sets forth
ihai if tiie poison be fouud in the di-tlllate,
and no sulphuric or other acid
nas been Used 'iu the distillation,
men there is no question but tout Hie
poison existed m its free state, iu.thgsnb
ject subjecte t to distillation. \Vheieas
n sulphuric, phoapiione, or tartaric acid
hud been auded to the tuixiu.e, then
even if prussic acid was not in the mix
ture subjected to dis'iliatlou, but there
nad been a feorr cyanide pie*eut, which
is a medicinal substance, or sulpho cy
anide, which U found in tliesalivu. then
prussic acid would appear.in the distil
late. You wiM find it slated in some very
good authors upon this subject that sul
phuricacid should be used iu the distil
lation. These are works, which were
written before this substance feiyo-cv
aiiide o£ potass, was used as a medicinal
agent, and prior lo the establishment of
me fact that sulpho cyanide of potassium
wasanoumtl cuustitueut of the saliva,
whlcn frebuently found Us way into the
stomach iu very notable quantity. Al
though it ia a fact that the discovery
of a truce of poison at the time the ex
amination is made, is iu itaeif no evi
dence that a large quantity did not exist
tn tue body at tne time of deSlh; yet,
on the other hand, it is' within itself in)
evidence that u iurge quantity actu
ally did exist lo the body at the time of
uealh, or.lhat even a trace ol poison was
present at that time. Th© presence of
the poison at that time, can ouly be es
tablished by the symptoms, post-mor
tem appearance and attending circum
stances. * Moreover, if in the case of prus*
sec acid, sulphuric acid has been added
lu the mixture subject to distillation, and
even granting the presence of poison in
the distillate, there is, from a chemical
point of - view, no evidence that a
truce of liidro c>umo acid, an
such, . existed in the substance sub
mitted to diaitiJiatiou What was the
bource of the poison, under these circum
stances, coutu only be determined by an
examination of a portion ot the suspected
matter, prior to tne addition of the s I
phunc acid. The in meat sulphuric
acid was added it rendered it beyond tlie
lower of chemistry, lu case prussic acid
was discovered in the distillate, to de
termine whet >er tne poison existed as
such iu the stuumcb, or whether it, was
derived from some of Hie substances al

—On Saturday morning Inst, between twelve
and one o’clock, the people of Mt. Holly nndtho
surrounding country wore arrousod, and their
houses shaken beneath them, by a shock as Of
an eaithquake and adeafonlng report which re
verberated among th- spurs of the South Moun
taln'for some seconds. Itwnasoou known to bo
caused by the explosion of one of the. steam
boilers of the p apor mill belonging to the estate
of the laic Wm B. MulUn, and now in charge o
Mr. Foster Mulljn.
it seems that two men, William Moyer and his
son, were left In charge of the engine during
the latter part of the night. Unknown to them,
the stop-cork In the pipe, which convoys the
'steam from the engine boiler to the rotany rng
boiler, wan turned off, permitting no steam to
pass. Examining tho steam guage of the rag
holler, and seeing that It indicated only about
twenty pounds of steam ,Mr, Meyer told his son
to make up tho tire, ns tho steam was going
down. Ho again looked ntthostcam guage of
tho Totally boiler, and seeing the steam no high
er, he again told his sou to stir up tho fire.
Shortly after this they discovered that tho en
gine boiler had on a fearful head of steam, and
both became alarmed, and were In the act of
opening tho safety valve, or providing some out
let for the steam when tho explosion occurred.
Tho end of tho boiler was Dreed out through
tho building, and carried a distance of two or
threclutndi ed yards.beyond the residence of Mrs*
Mullln. Tho engine house, which was a frame
biilldlug.waa entirely demolished, scarcely two
pieces remaining together, and the debris being
scattered over the surrounding Helds for a groat
distance. Tho paper mn king room, which con
tained valuable mnchln ciy, was shattered, and
tho machinery greatly damaged. The boiler It
self was thrown Into the air and turned com
pletely around, landing some twenty foot from
Its old position.
Meyer and his son were both seriously Injured’
one of them dpuhtoss mortally. Tho old gentle
man was seriously cut about tho head and In
thcjabdomcn; his face, nook and hands senldod
and burned almost to a cusp, Young Moyer had
tho back part of his skull crushed in, and was
also cut. bruised and scalded about bis face and
body. Strange to say, he remained conscious
Dr Kiollor was called in, and found a portion of
tho skull driven Into tho brain, and the brain
oozing out. Ti e main artery at the back of the
skull was cut. and from all appearances there
was copious Internal hemorrhage. Ho was
planed under the influence of chloroform, while
the operation was being performed ; and after it
was over, and since, says ho suffers no'paln, and
remains entirely conscious.
The escaping steam and sediment scorned to
sweep down every thing hi Its way, lltco a torna
do. Trees were twisted pud torn from the ear ih
fences demolished, and havoc spiead far and
wide. Tho damage to machinery as variously
.estimated at from $6,000 to $lO,OOO.

nity offerred to mkke money. You can
