Delaware tribune. [volume] (Wilmington, Del.) 1867-1877, 1868-11-19

A pen-sketch of Fletcher Harper, ESQ.,, of
the firm of Harper & Brothers, occupies
couple of pages of the last issue of the Pub
lishers' Circular. Some space is devoted to
the early history of the house, with the
principal facts of which the public arc famil-
lar. A high tribute is paid to the subject of
the sketch for his executive ability, business
talents, and large -heartedness. Although
the youngest of the four brothers, (having
been born in l806,) he is called ''the lender
of the house" and the qualities which he
has brought to bear upon his business, the
writer tells us, are Of that kind which, if he
had been trained to public life, would have
made him one OF the foremost men of the
country. He is shrewd, and yet with broad
views; he has courage, which never deserts
him he has most keen eye for shams and
for IN Illogical position and, finally, he is
an upright and humane man, whose heart
is with the lowly, and whose sympathies are
with every effort to elevate the people, and
to help men to help themselves. In this
| connection we make room for joke, with
which all of our readers may not be ac-
| quainted. The Rev. DR.. Blank, one of the
great bores of this country. once told little
anecdote of Mr.. James Harper. 81 asked
the Mayor" said DR.. Blank, "what he did
said to him, know that Mr. John Harper
attends 10 the business; MIR, Wesley Har-
per looks after the literary correspondence /;
Mr.. Fletcher Harper, receives authors, and
looks after new books and the Magazine
but you, MIR. Mayor, have never been able
to discover what you do" "Tll tell you,
answered the Mayor, in whisper, "but
you must not let it out; l entertain the
| bores /"

OLD WILMINGTON FOUNDRY TO BE TORN DOWN
MARKET HOUSE AND CARRIAGE FACTORY IN
ITS STEAD.
Messrs. Gregg & Bowie, carriage manufac-
turers, at the Northeast corner of Third and
French streets, have purchased of Messrs Belts
the old 7" Wilmington Iron Foundry" at Eighth
at once. In the spring they intend erecting on
Its site fine carriage factory, four stories in
height, with q market house on the first floor.
This will be great Improvement, as the old
foundry building has had a gloomy look ever
since It was closed and Messrs E. & A. Belts
moved to their new building out Newport road.
1t will be pleasant to the old corner alive with
business again, and still more pleasant to sec q
handsome new building there.
