In contemplating the wants OF Whining
ton it strikes us that there can be nothing
more urgently needed than new hotel.
we do not mean mere drinking saloon
with Indifferent accommodations, but cana.
clous building, containing all the modern i'm
provements, and kept in style that will
render it credit to our city. The accom-
modations for the travelling public, are not
at all commensurate with the wants of the
public, nor are there provisions for that
comfort which the guest has right to ex-
pect at Il public house. We do not
believe that capitalists can invest their
means in business which will pay better
percentage than in the. erection of hotel in
Our midst. Thousands ofdollars are lost an
nualiy to our merchants for the want of one.
Our city is high and healthy is surrounded
with beautiful scenery, and possesses every
advantage calculated to make il n dali0htfnl
resort for those who are pent up in tbe
crowded, dusty avenues of the larger cities
They would much prefer to come here N

boy, all the travelling shows, which perform
cd under canvass took place. The last ex-
hibition was in 1871, and consisted of sing
ing and dancing. A printer named Samuel
johnson, employed on the Delaware Senti-
mel, printed by WIN. NJ. Naudain in au old
white building which at that time stood at
the corner of Second and Market streets,
played an engagement with this company,
and was the first person we ever saw appear
on the boards in Wilmington as an imitator
of negro character. 1t was well received
aud the company remained here for two
weeks playing nightly to crowded houses.
This house had extensive stabling attached,
and did an excellent business. AT that
time merchants for many miles around,
traded in our city, and hauled all their
merchandise in large -four and six horse
wagons. They would generally spend a
night and part Of day in our town, and
those coming by the Kennett and Con.
cord Turnpike nearly all found quarters at
the Monumental Inn. Time works great
changes, and in few years railroads broke
this system entirely up, and with it the
Monumental became losing concern, and
finally mere drinking saloon. 1t was
eventually purchased by Friend, the old
swinging sign which had hung there for so
long exposed to the rays of the summers
sCorching sun, and winters SHOWS and frosts
that the painting on it was nearly obliter-
ated was removed, and the house converted
into humble dwelling. Finally it gave
place to a splendid row of brick houses, and
where once the votaries of Bacchus enjoyed
their midnight revelry, now dwell in peace
and contentment, quiet, private citizens.
LOST CHILDREN.
Our city is rapidly growing quite large
and as a consequence it is becoming thing
of frequent occurrence that little children
wander away from their parents and are un
able to find their homes again. When Al
occurrence of this kind takes place, they ar,
picked up by some kind-hearted person ant
taken home. The mother may seek lar an,
wide for her lost treasure without beiul
able 10 discover its whereabouts, and thos,
having it in charge may labor equally asst.
diously to restore it to its distressed parents
but without avail, and as a consequence
much mental anguish and toll is occasioned
We would suggest that the City Council
provide q place where estray children could
be taken and provided for until reclaim
ed. Persons finding children conll the
take them directly to such place, aud pa
rents losing them, would know exactly wher
to 60 to find them. 1t would save an i'm
, mense deal of trouble on all sides, and "
hope Council will give the matter its seriou
consideration.

IRON IN THE BLOOD.
1t is well known TO the medical profession
that IRON is the Vital Principle of Life FL.
ement of the blood. This is derived chiefly
from the food we eat; but if the food is not
properly digested, or if, from any cause tchat-
euer, the necessary quantity of iron is no,
taken into the circulation, or becomes re-
duced, the whole system suffers. The bad
blood VIII irri,ate the heart, will clog up the
lungs, will stupefy the brain, will obstruct
the liver, and will send its producing
clements 10 all parts of the system, and cve-
ry one will suffer in whatever organ may be
predisposed TO disease.
The GREAT value of
