A WHITENALL (N. Y.) Ginu’s Anyor- MAL APPETITE FOR ARSENIC.—A ‘diet of arsenic, it seems, is nothing at ail after you get used to it. There isa littie girl in W! ee. hall, N. Y., who eats it and cries for it. fame of her singular appetite has 5) a all around the region of the little of Lake Champlain, and the editor of the Whitehall Times has been interviewing her personally. The father, Mr. Flagg, proceeded to feed his daughter her regular arsenic in the presence of the editor. Iiereupon her father took from his ‘ket a ginger snap, and upon this he sprinkled a 7 of arsenic. He then hand- ed the cake to Mary. The delight with which the child devoured it was simply horribly ravenous. After devouring the cake, Mary asked fora drink of water. it seemed to us as if this was but the premonition of the fatal drug’s deacly effect, for when rats bave been partaking of poison they imme. diately go for water and expire at the Water's edge. But we soon lo realize that the child before us was a remarkabl« exception to the general rale. We noticed @ great flush of te checks, @ bright sparkie of the eye, and @ general ‘briliiancy of the Whole countenanee. She seemed like oue transformed. The strange metamorphosis was indecd startling. She m talking, asking many questions, and making sugges- tious as to Our profession. Her father in- formed us that he did not often give her the drng, but lately he has been visited by many persons who had prevatied upon him to a Tatnister it for their curiosity. The effect of the drag remains for at least six hours,when it passes off, leaving the child as she was previous to partaking of it. @aA Ber Paip.—The Albany Jour: 8 Story: “Ex-Alderman J.
