Over 400,000 pounds of poultry passed liiaver the Delaware Railroad during the mouth . ;preceding Christmas, bound for Philadelphia it and New - York. This is worth, at the low es elniate of 1.5 e. per pound, $60,000. An im mense amount of poultry and eggs is shipped over this road to northern cities - timing the ~ year; and..l. am assured by a welltinformed rail road official that the revenue from this source actually exceeds that received from our im mense fruit crop in the most favorable years. Our peninsula furnishes all the most epicurean taste can demand. From our coasts come . oysters and terrapins; quails abound inland, and our bays and rivers am the great resorts of • canvass-back and other ducks. We cultivate , . peaches and berries to a considerable extent, and furnish the largest cities with a large pro portion of their ChriAmas turkeys. Yet we are'still.poor. "Why is this thus?” The Wilininaton and Reading Railroad is now completed to Coatesville, Chester county, a distance of thirty miles, and one train passed both - ways over the roadi on the day before .......Christmas. The road needs a considerable iinoiint of trimming and ballasting yet, and workmen will be kept at this work this week with a view to regularly opening it to trade and travel nest week. For the present its .. passenger trains will probably start from the 'depot of the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad. It is generally hoped that this arrangement will be permanent, and that a large .union depot will be built for the Phila delphia, Wilmington and Baltimore, the Dela ware and the 'Wilmington Railroad, now built, and the Wilmington and We'stern, yet to be The latter road will, I am assured, certainly be built, as the people along the line of the route are awakening—not Co its importance, for that they have, always understood—but to a realization of the fact: that they must put their own shoulders to the wheel. It is de-' signed at present to run fro Wilmington to Chandlerville, where it will connect with a branch of the Pennsylvania Railroad, now ,building in a southeasterly direction from Pomeroy. The ultimate design is, however, to push the road to. a connection with Gettys burg, and thence through the southern tier of Pennsylvania counties to the far West. At about two o'clock to-day Washington Cox a Well-known. builder, discharged a half drunken workman named Edward Butcher, who had been working on the improvements in progress at the City Ball. Butcher picked up a piece or building-stone, weighing several pounds. and hurled it at Cox, striking him alongside the head, cutting one of .his ears in two, makity , b a frightful gash and knocking him senseless. lie was instantly arrested and locked up, and Yr. Cox was sent to a phy sician. His wounds are very painful, but are not considered dangerous. DALE. Phenomena at Baden-Baden. • A German paper says: It is well-known that Baden-Baden is rich in 'warm mineral springs. They are twelve in . number, and their estimated yield is about 880,- 000 litres of water a day. They are all situated near each other, on the southern declivity of the Schlossberg, and yet their temperature, and the substances with which they are impreg nated,ditthr widely. Excavations were formerly undertaken for the purpose of forming a large steam-bath; and at a small depth below the sur face a new hot spring was discovered,vvith a basin of It onian workmanship. The excavations were still continued, in the hope of approaching the central point from whence all the hot springs are supposed to proceed, and a new fountain with a temperature of not less than 69 degrees Iteau»iur was found. On the first of last No vember the quantity of water issuing from this source suddenly increased to such rn extent as to .iustifV the supposition of a great internal 'convulsion. A slight earthquake was felt at the same time, among others by the Grand Duke himself, who was at the tithe re siding In the neighboring castle. It has ' long been known that a part of the Castle Garden is slowly but con-. thmally sinking into the depths of ° the valley, with a force which even the lingo supporting walls. dating from the times of the Romans, will not be able to resist much longer. It now seems the foundations of thelpw castle are laid in the coal measures, while the vertical supporting walls, about 10 feet in height, lest on a bed of mica clay. The lower walls of the castle present a most interesting appearance, as they are marked with nu merous cracks closely resembling in their direction the dips of the strata in the neighboring mountains. They differ ' greatly in size, those in the most modern parts of the building being scarcely broader than a • hair, while in the most ancient masonry they 1 are sometimes five inches iu width. The Grand Duke having expressed a. wish that ex act obServations might be made, this was done, and; according to the liiirbiruher &Rung% on the 4th of November all the fissures were found to have changed, some to the extent of !, millimetre. Parts of the wall of the Castle Garden were greatly disfigured at the same time, the new sandstone supports burst, and have bunk considerably, while the wall itself is marked by new perpendicular fissures. At tempts have since been umle to remove the . water faun- nutlet the mosnitusteady parts-: of the wall, by means of ditches and other con trivances, and by these means the movement, though iestill continues, Las been greatly re duced. Lead Poisoning from Cider. The Loudon lancet says: "Cider, when drunk in moderation, is a wholesome as well as a refrigerating, beverage ; and we have no wish to see it replaced by beer in the agricul- Aural districts. But could not its manufacture ,sobe eoriducted as to prevent its taking up lead' ;4 11u the process, to the frequent occasioning of r" tl r ic among its drinkers? In Herefordshire . Liugen told the Commissioners on the • ininployment of Women. and Children in Agri : .- I ,lFttltural Labor that lead poisoning of a very rave character is of frequent odcurrene and' early traceable to the-Presence of lead in the k'- ''der for which the county is famous.

Again, the satne con tamination proditees the like results when lead pipes instead ofzinc ones have been used to convey cider to the taps in public houses, espe cially when the cider is allowed to remain long in the pipes." _ , ...4tevenue Detective .

It is the general belief that Wilson's death was caused by vio lence. The Coroner and the authorities are canvassing the case carefully. The New Anaesthetic. The London Academy says : "Chloral continues to excite attention, more perhaps abroad than among ourselves. The hydrate of chloral is a white crystalline sub stance, which in contact with alkaline • fluids spits up into chloroform and formic acid. Hence, when it comes into contact with blood, the alkaline reaction of that fluid effects its de composition, and a formation of chloroform is the result. Liebreich, of Berlin, to. whom we are indebted for having brought the matter forward, believes that 'when chloral is taken by the mouth or injected under the skin, and so is gradually absorbed into the blood, hloroform is set free in and given up to the' blood little by little. Hence its action is necessarily somewhat slow but gentle and prolonged, very different indeed from the action of chloroform taken in rapidly by the ordinary process of inhaling. At all events the animal or person to whom.chlo ral is administered gradually becomes subject to an =esthetic or rather hypnotic influence, quite distinct from that-of chloroform. It has already found considerable favor in Germany as a substitute for morphia, and as a means of producing sleep. "In England, Dr. 'W. Richardson reported rather unfavorably,on it at the Exeter meeting of the • British Association, disagreeing with Liebreich as to its administration being free from danger and from inconvenient after-effects, and being inclined to attribute ill effects to the formic acid developed at the same time.' In Paris, however, M. Demarguay; in a commu nication to the Academy of Sciences, while dis agreeing with many of Liebreich's conclusions, says that chloral seems likely to prove a most useful agent for procuring sleep, especially in the case of -weak persons.' ; A MERICAN ACADEMY OF MUSIC.- GRAND ITALIAN OPERA.
