Atiaxtio City, Aug. 8.—This young, pretty, and attractive seaside rosort has just escaned » calamity that at frst threatened to be second in extent only to the fearful ferry disaster in New York. The poitoning of the guests of tho Alliam- bra Hotel, which bas already been announced by telegraph, was an sffair of more moment than has beon given to it, Nearly sixty inmates of the houre partook of the dondly potion, and wore prosirated by ite effects, That none of them loet thoir lives is a miracle that sorpasses words, ‘The Alhambra ts 0 firet-closs hotel, though rather asmall house, Itts kept by Mr. RB, Leeds, well known throughout eastern Pennsylvania and in New Jersey os « popular landlord, and one who thoronghly knows how to keep hotel. He ts largely patronized by Philadelphians, On Sunday last ho Lad between 100 and 195 gnesta in bys hous EATING A POISONED DINNER, Dinner was served from1 to %y o'clock, The guests were all in good apirite and seemed to enjoy the meal, At 8 o'c’ock, however, some of the ladies who bad eaten early began to experience anpleasant symptoms, piting and purging war prevalent in vasious parts of the house, and all the mensongers were employed chasing the fow doctors in the place. By four o'clock the number of affected ones had fncreased (o an alarming extent, and tho wildost consternation prevailed. It became obvious that the guests bad been poisoned, though how aud by whom was a mystery, As the moments pasted the number of distressed ones increased, and those not already sick were nearly as badly frightened as those that wore prostrate, SUDDRN DISAPPRARANCE OF TUR COOK. It was now conceded that tho auflerers had been potsoned, and that the poison had been administered in the food provided for dinner, An investigation ‘Was at once set on foot, but was balked et the out Set by the unaccountable absence of the cook That responsible functionary had taken alarm at the first manifestation of trouble, and absconded. ‘This ffact at onco created the very natural impression "that the polson hind been pur- pose administered, By nichtfall there were be tween Afty and sixty ingiates of the house suffering from the sume cause, The landlord being amoog the number, tozether with members of his ttamily, and some of the sorvants in the houge, it was clear that he couid not have been privy to the dasturdly crime. The continued absence of the cook, how ever, settled the couviction upoo every mind that she Was wlone guilty, WALY TUE HOUSEHOLD POISONED, Halt the housebold were now in the wildest paroxysws of distress, All toe puysicians of the town Were in aitendance, and the cumber was tov Jew to gite promot attention to so many severe 6 1f ferers, Telogras were sent to Philadelpaia tor as- istance, but this reliance failed until Monday morn- gf, When Dr, Grove and one or two others came down, 1n the mean tine, however, the persevering eflorte of the local plysiciaus, Dra, Reed and Black Wood, and the prowpt administration of wutid of various kinds, bad prevepted any fatal results, ‘The patients were still sufering greatly on Monday, and many Were by no Wweans oUt of danger, ALL ESCADED DEATH, Happily, wowever, they have at this timo all es- caved death, and the inost of them have #o fur recovered as to be able to be conveyed to their foveral bomes, ‘Tre affair bas nearly depopuiated those not poisoned taking the alarm and first opportunity.

What the poison was {s not yet ascertained, Sere ral diferent stozies are efloat in regard to it, most commonly accepted version is, that in making & curtard tae cuok used oi) of bitter uimonds instead of essonve of vanilla, a8 intended. ‘Enis isa herd sicry to believe end can only be accounted for on the supposition that the Cook wae so stupidly Crunk tet sue diun't know what sie was doing, Aby one in their sober senses would at ‘once detect the diflerence in the edor, Oil of bit- ter simonds 18 Che Of the Kost getive aud deadly poisons known, It is four times as poworful as the Ordinary prussic acid dispensed in the drug stores.
