HORRIBLE DEATH FROM DRINKING WATER POIsONFD BY DEapD TOADS. Gays ago Mr. Alexander Higble, a promi- nent resident of Springfield, town of Ja- maica, Long Isiand, noticed a pimple com- ing upon bis upper lip, near the entrance to the right nostril. It grew rapidly in size, and the adjacent parts soon nto sweil. Some ove who pretended to have medicai knowledge assured him that it was only the effects of a cold, that there was no danger, snd treated it accordingly. At last it was determined that the affection was erysipe- jas, and the family becoming alarmed sent for Dr. Beldin, of Jamaica, their regular family physician, who at once determined it to bea case of malignant pustule. The head was ina fright'ul condition, and the brain was already affected so that he was delirious. Under tne clreamstances it was impossible to save him, and he died on Friday. In making inguiry as to the in bie cause of the attack, Dr. Beidin found Unat for some time past tne water of the weil had hed @ peculiar taste, and investigation proved that it was polluted by a number of dead toads in various of decom; > tion. Mr. Higbie was in the habit of dripking large quantities of water, and he continued to do so after the taint was dis- coverc’ and even du his iliness. Dr. Beldin bes no doubt that this was the cause of bis death. N. World, tith.
