Atropa Belladonna. 



Referring to the note of H. P. B. in the ^ Phytologist' for 

 April, 1858, 1 find Miller, in his Dictionary, under Atropa Bella- 

 donna, says Buchanan relates the destruction of the army of 

 Sweno the Dane, when he visited Scotland, by the berries of this 

 plant, which were mixed with the drink which the Scots, accord- 

 ing to Bruce, were to supply the Danes with. The Danes became 

 so inebriated that the Scottish army fell on them in their sleep.
