Poisons and thkir Anti
boTES. —The employment of subtle poi
sons in VAkYiy WttArkable cases of puis
oning by intelligent criminals cognizant
of their efficacy, has awakened a spirit
of dread among the reflective portion of
Nlie community—as it is generally be*
Heved that science has discovered but
saw, if any, antidotes to tho working of
theea destructive agents. This is partic
ular the popular prejudice with respect
to strychnine; but we glean from tho
Rochester Democrat a case of a return k-
Able character, ift which a complete re
covery from the effects of this deadly
poison has been wrought by the appli
cation |L most simple antidotes. The
narration of this case we deem of such
general interest as to authorize epitomiz
ing its features.
A policeman having accidently swal
lowed a large quantity of strychnine,
which he used for dog-killing, at once
struck upon the idea of attempting to
‘neutralize its effect, by swallowing an
‘emetic. This operation he twice re
peated, before the servicos of a practis
ing physician were called upon.
When the oV Galen arrived, he
found tho poVi'Ceman laboring under se
vere spasms ; his body was bent in the
form of an arc, and his teeth were con
vulsively closed. The physician imme
diately placed the sutyect under the in
fluence of chloroform, which appears to
have entirely negatived the power of the
spasmodic action, and continued the ad
ministration of powerful emetics; aud
thus, at the end of some twenty-four
hours, the sufferer was found not only
to bo relieved of every particle of the
poison, but entirely free from the spasms
and conyulsions which had seized upon
him. At the last accounts the man ap
pear? to be rapidly recovering, lie hav
ing regained consciousness during his
period of treatment. We have now in
disputable authority that chloroform,
Jwlien correctly administered, acts as an
antidote to poison; and,the very sim
|>Kcity of the remedy should place it
within the reach, as well as remem
brance of every individual.

The testimony is more than ample to p’ ove that
the Author of this System is the only inventor or

and that the’ Northern System is a failure und a
