TIONS.
Special to Iho Daily Gazette.
Coatesville, Jan. H, 18*2.
The annuel masting of the Stockholders of the
Wilmington A Reading Railroad was opened at
tha Company's office, In Coatesville, this morning.
Reports of the operation, of tha Road for the fis
cal year ending Oct. 31st, 1872, presented grots re
ipts for the year, 1228,773 25 bein ;
t0|, 981.28 over tho previoue year. Freight ton
nage increased 57j^ per cent, and freight receipts
47 per cent, over those of last year. A large pro
1 ortion of this is in the carriage of anthrncite coal
and iron ore, and all the items, shows steady
and giatifying increase.
Track greatly improved during the year. Near
ly ttt* who** length of the road being well ballast
ed .fid in firet class condition. The siding and
depot accommodations hove been much increased.
The Reading branch is under way and tho hope is
expressed that the rails of the company will reach
tho city of Reading early in the coming summer.
Reference is mide to tho interest of tho company
in tho Barks Count, Rail Road extending north
wards to the Lehigh River aud tho report states
that active prograss is now being made in this
work, and its completion from Reading to Slating
ton is anticipated duritig the year 1873.
The Iron Ore region of the Welsh mountains is
baingTargelj developed and the transportation of
ore over the road is greatly incteased. The notion
of the city of Wilmington in the widening of
Watir street is alluled to as affording to the Rail
road Companies entering the city from the west
an opportunity to reach the business of the Chris
tianue river with their own tracks, and enabling
them to iucrcase their business with the city ami
with the lines of transportation to Phi'adelnhia

Wilmington, Del., January 1 Uh, 1873.
Mr. Editor I read an article in your paper
tinder date of Jauttary Uth, 1872, headed "Too
l.alu." The undersigned was Street Commis
sioner from July 187Ï, to July 1872, and during
my term of cilice, a jury awarded to William
l'ylc as damages for opening Monrno street,
from Fifth to Seventh streets, two hundred and
twenty-five dollars which was accepted by ilte
City Council, of Wilmington. After receiving the
order from the Clerk of 'Connell, I called on
William Pyle and paid him, September 28tli, 1871,
the amount above named (two linndrcd and
twenty-five dollars), for which I have his receipt.
One year after the date of payment to Wm. Pyle,
the present Street Commissioner called on me to
kuow the date of the paymeut, and said to me he
wanted it for the City Solicitor, after referring to
the receipt the same day, I gave him the dale.—
The first intimation 1 ban that an attachment for
tho amount was over issued by any person or
persons was In rending the artiielc in your paper,
therefore the haste referred to in the article to no
tify me previous to payment is not correct.

Lydia Sherman, the Poleoner-M
Sentence and Confeeslon.
New IIates, Conn., January 12.—Mrs
Lydia Sherman, the reputed poisoner of three
husbands and two or three children, but who
was only convicted of manslaughter in the
poisoning of her last husband, was sentenced
to the State prison for life yesterday. She
received the sentence with the utmost indiffer
ence, and at the conclusion gracefully courte
sied her acknowledgement to the court.
The confession of Mrs. Sherman admits the
poisoning of èperson».
Mrs. Sherman is a very ignorant woman, and
all through her trial in court and to her own
counsel denied having poisoned anybody and
wanted to swear to it, She was bora in New
Brunswick, New Jersey, in 1325, and became |
au orphan while yet a child. At the age of
seventeen she joined the Methodist Church,
and at one of its love-feasts met Edward Struck,
whom she afterwards married. He became
a policeman at York ville. He was dismissed
from the force for neglect et duty and subse
quently went crazy with a softened brain. He
became a burden to her, and, as she says, "at
the suggestion of a friend," she gave him arse
nic in ms food. It dkl its work so well that
sh« saw at once a way to lighten herself still
further of domestic duties, and so, with the
potent agent, she sent her two youngest
children after her husband. She next went to
Litchfield, Conn., and met Dennis Hurlburt.
She married him, but not liking him very well
procured an arsenic divorce, and Dennis died.
Another "friend" told her of Horatio N. Sher
man, a widower, and wealthy, who lived at
Derby. She angled for him by procuring a
situation as his housekeeper. She married him.
He had two small Children, who were objection -
able to her, and she applied the arsenical anti
dote for suclt troubles. They were taken to the
graveyard. .Sne did Dot intend to kill her bus
oand, but had procured that package of poison
f or ra t s . U lay upon the mantel beside
saleratu? which ho used to put lu Ms elder to
make it foam. It became mixed somehow, and
bheruiau s body revealed poison. She never
knew how it g J t there as ^ du , not intend
klu hinl Y et it was for his death she was
