BUSINESS MATTERS.

BeIs" Delaware Steam Soap and Candle Fac
tory, conducted by Robert d. Hicks, stand
prominently forth among the business institu
tions of this city. The people throughout thu
country, who purchase soap and candles il
Philadelphia, are doubtless not aware that Mr.
Hicks manufactures all kinds of fancy and
common soaps equally as good as the same
kind of articles can be made in Philadelphia
or New York. We happened to drop into his
Factory the other day and were really aston
ished to find the works so extensive and the
machinery so complete. Nearly everything is
done by steam. A stationary engine in the
cellar works the pumps, and the boiler sup
| plies steam for the various purposes OF manu-
| featuring soap. We saw a great many very
pretty fancy soaps that would be a great ac-
QUESTION to any ladies toilet. Why do our
people go abroad to buy such articles as are
manufactured at our very doors? Our drug
gists snd dealers in fancy articles will no doubt
be very much surprised and gratfed to find
that they can purchase all kinds of fine soaps
at the Delaware works. We make rule of
buying every thing we use at home, and we
think that Delawarians would do much for our
selves by following our example.
BSS~ Delaware Military Academy Theodore
Hyatt, President, is one of the Institutions
which reflects so much credit upon this city as
place for strangers to send their children to
be educated. There is perfect order about this
Academy, and everything is conducted in such
II manner that great good cannot help growing
out of it. We stopped Mt the Academy grounds
the other day to see the scholars drill. They
have several pieces of brass cannon, which
they WELD with much dextcrty. The princi-
pal, Mr.. Hyatt, is man of much energy and
perseverance, and is peculiarly adapted to gov
erning an institution of this kind. Persons
residing in the lower counties of this State
would do well, when in Wilmington any plea
SAINT afternoon, to visit the grounds of the Mil
itary Academy and witness the exercises of
the pupils.
