A sad mistake.

--Mr. C. Becott, of East Newark. New Jersey, on Wednesday last procured some cough drops at the druggists, for a cough from which his son was suffering. In the night the young man got up to take some of the drops. He took them, as was supposed, and went back to his bed. In the morning, when called to breakfast, he was dead.
