Naples, April 7.  The following melancholy accident happened
here lately; a drummer of the regiment of Farnese having
bought some mushrooms, dined on them with the rest of his
family; and in 24 hours the father, mother, three children,
a cousin, and a soldier who died there by chance, were all
killed by them.
