A new and very valuable annsthetic has
been discovered by DR.. Liebreich, (of Bcr-
lin, we believe to which he has given the
name Chloralhydrat." From the expert
ments made with it the fact is ascertaincd
that it produces n more complete state oi
uAconSciousncss than chlOroform, without
any Of the lattor's evil effects upon the sys-
TEN. \ medical gentleman who gave it a
very thorough trial alleges that he has held
rabbits from twelve to fourteen hours under
the influence of chloralhydrat, during part
of which time he kept them suspended over
the back Of Il chair. and az soon as they wa
kcnod up they displayed their usual activity
and fed with unimpaircd appetite. Great
success has also attended its application az
scdativc for the insane. Chloralhydrat re.
scmbles chlorOform in appearance, but it is
not so heavy. and being much less volatile
than that body. It has. of course, fecblcr
smell. On the tongue it has sharp but not
IN acid taste. and though it reminds one Of
chlorofOrm, it gives the sensation neither OF
the warmth nor sweetness Of the latter sub.
stance. CblOralhvdrat is absorbed and not

aid by some of breed Of geese which he
calls ''China geese" three of which laid

FREsHEr-THE PUMPS SToPPED.-The
James river, which has been rising ever
since the heavy rain of Sunday, is now very
much swollen. On Tuesday afternoon at
o'clock the pumps at the city water works
stopped, and they cannot be worked again
until the water has fallen considerably.
There is enough water in the reservoir for
several days use. but our citizens had
better be sparing in its consumption.
