burning pain, the peculiar extension of the

In the shade in which these symptoms ap

What is that :dilute that makes it

A. The degree of severity :and distine•
'tiveness. I mean the severity of burning.
I hare had a eilio of distinct tartar emeue

the symptoms in this hywhetical case—

Her skin became moist before death. She

*Without regard to

01 anything might be a symptom, some

of a caselir which I would take abeamo
as a symptom of a case. Certainly after
understanding the question,, 1 would
say that absence is a -.symptom, and in
prognosticating,,a ease_ aheence some,
times regarded as a symptom. 1 would
nut say, how ver, that in the absence
of Of . poisoning, that poison
ing,was the disease.
libe proniineut symptoms in arsenical
poisoning are burning in the stomach,
and burning extending to the throat.
Nausea, vomiting,and purging, (severe'
and continued,) sense of constriction
around the throat, difficulty of swallow
ing and extreme thirst, and an intoler
ance of all warm drinks. Times aro
what I would gall the prominent leading
symptoms of arsenical poisoning, as I
have learned , them from the hooks.
Those mentioned by Mr. Shearer are
accidental symptoms which may or may
not attend,' but if present would confirm
the other symptoms. The mixture of
blood with bile, gives the vomit a brown
appearance. Even the leading symptoms

NASII LECTIIItE.—The first-lecture
of the season was deliveied at Itheem's
Hall on Friday evening" last •to a very
large, intelligent and appreciatlp audi
ence. The lecturer 'was the celebrated
Potroleu m V. Nasby, and his theme was
the "Mission of Skinenoyh."
As Nasby is a national institution it
may not be amiss here to state ho he
is and what he is like. His . name is
David H. Locke, and lie is by profession
the editor of the Toledo Blade Ile is a
robust, stalwart man, weighing about
two II nod red, and standing about five feet
ten in his boots. He is anywhere be
tween thirty-five and forty-live years,
and looks as if Ite Would live at least
fifty years more. There — is nothing in
A appearance or manner to indicate
that he is conscious of ever having at
tragted any attention, or of possessing any
unusnal powers-whatever. Lecturing is
only an incidental business with him,
having never appeared on the platform
until he had achieved a reputation as a
humorist by his famous letters.
His lecture was simply a scathing
satire on the morals of - American poli
tics, business and society, and they were
ridiculed as fiercely, although in ix very
'different style of English, as were those
of the pro-slavery Democracy at the
Confederate Cross Roads, in the letters
Which have made Nasby's name a house
hold, word all over the -country. The
lecture opens by a description of the
Comanche Indians, in which the humor
ist takes occasion_ to make sundry side
flings at gentlemen who write up sub
jects of which they are profoundly igno
rant: Skinenoyli is ';O representative'
, young Camanchp, who determines to go
Eastward in order that he may profit by
the civilization "Of the kreA white race.
Ho is equipped. for hisjourney- by means
Cf funds raised by fairs, at which the
performances, although they have the
same features ours are rtiore . vigorous.
'He first meets the civilization he is in
quest of on t e frontiers of Kansas,
where he finds i in the shape of whisky,
? 1
bad enough to make him steal money
out of his Own pockets, and where he
meets hind agents who will sell him all
the kingdoms of: the earth, or borrow the
amount of the consideration money from
him just as may be most convenient far
both Parties. The Indian in quest of a
bettor article of civilization
,guts into
Chicago, mid - sees the operations of f the
'grain speculators. He is told thd' tricks
of that trade, and 'concludes that it is
worse gambling anti bigger. lying than
a Camapche could do if be tried, and is
therefore not impressed faVorably with
the ' morals of the-place. — Ho goes' to
Now York anti roes the operations in
gold and stocks, and finds that to be a
little worse oven than the Chicago grain
dealers' swindles. 'Ho finds men stealing
railroads wits lass troublo and risk than
his people incur when they steal horses,

selection of their chiefs, and "concludes
that politics also is a fraud." He peeps
a little into civilized society and makes
some discoveries there in', the way of
dross and behavior that seem to him
worse than all the rest, and he goes itenao

man. A'Short time afterwards Morrison
was re-arrested in a house on North_
street, 'and the parties wore then' eaketi
before A. L. Sionsler, esq., for a hearing.
The parties that had suffered by the
transactions of these young mem were
telegraphed for, and arrived on the 5.80
p. m. train and identified -them. They
are charged with having forged a check
on Mr. Jesse Brindle, in August last, a
gentleman fur whom. they worked last
:Blamer, for VA which was sashed at
the Carlisle Deposit Bank. -
The following from the Valley lade
pendent, of last week, will also illustrate
:a transaction . with which they are
charged : ' '
"Du last; Wedneliday afternoon, a
udranger, giving his name as CharleS
Johnson, walked into the grocery store
-of- -- Wisett - Mateer, on East Main street,
and asked one of the firm, (Mr. Wise,)
if he would cash him a check of fifteen
dollars on Jesse Brindle, who resides in
the countr,g,. Always wishing to oblige.
and accommodate, Mr. Wise willingly
assented, paid over the money to Mr.
Johnson, who with many thanks went on
his way rejoicing. Not feeling alto-.
gather. safe as to..tho genuineness of the
paper, Mr. Wise took it to the First
National Bank, when Mr. Brindle, a
brother of Jesse Brindle, pronounced the
check a forgery. From latest accounts
nothing has been hoary of the bold
stranger, and Messrs. Wise & Mateer,
are losers of a right snug sum of
money." .
Upon being identified, Officer Selene
assisted by Jesse Cart, proceeded to
take the prisoners to jail. When near
Irvine's corner, Johns tripped Cart and
felled hittt to the ground, making good
his escape. At the same time Officer
Sanuo, who, had Morrison in, chary °
turned around to assist Cart, when Mor
rison took the wings of thn morning,"
and rapidly sped down Main street,
passing Sheriff Foreman, who anew a
p.dr of pinchers after hint, attd joined in
the pursuit. Mr. Cart continued the
ohase after Johns, and very nearly suc
ceeded iu recapturing him, when he was
suddenly brought to a halt, by a voice
hips ivar, crying out "stop; or_ I will
shoot." And thus the chase ended, mid
these - young men are still at liberty.

the concert was superior to any instru

Cleveland. Each member is a brilliant
solo peitformer, and ono or two of them
are perhaps 'unexcelled in' the whole
country. Our citizens never heard classi
cal music interpreted so beautifully, or
with such delicacy bud- feeling, before.
Of the various club solos, we shall place
Mr. Heinili's flute- fantastic' at tho head.
It was an astonishing performance,'and
deserved the sincere applause it evoked.
We had hot imagined the flute to bo ca
pable of so much. The clarionet and
