Fatal Occurrence. — —.. ♦ An extraordinary fatality is reported from British Guiana. It appears tha* experienced traveller having, as is the cußt'om id tropical countries, taken a refreshing draught from the stem of . one of the many wateivholding plants 1 which thrive m th? ; forests, qualified his cold refreshment by a "nip " of rum,. : Shortly afterwards he died m - agony, and a posUmortem examination showed that his internal organs were literally sealed up with jndiarubber, He had imbibed the sap of the Mimusops balata, the juice of which coagulates and hardens m alcohol, and the rum had its usual effect : m the poor man's stomach, with necessarily fatal results. . : '
