IMPRovEMENTs.-In passing around
to note the progress of improvements
in our midst, we were kindly shown
through the new and substantial
Warehouse of Messrs. HYATT q HoBBs,
located near the depot. These gentle
men are extensive dealers in wool, OPP
Grating both here and in Worcester,
Mass. To accommodate their trade
here, they have erected a large ware
house on the west side of the railroad,
south of Winter street. Here they
have all the facilities necessary to re-
ceiving and shipping wool on an ex-
tensive scale, evidence of which is
found in the fact that they have already
bought over 6OO,O 600 pounds of wool
this season. Seeing the pressing need
in this line of trade, they have also
fitted up their establishment so as to
combine a irst-class Grain Warehouse;
and they propose to push things so that
Delaware shall not longer remain be-
hind in this matter of buying and
shipping grain. 1t is a w~ell-known
fact that our town has been doing COM
paratively little in this line of trade,
and we are glad to see that these gen.
tlemen are disposed to remedy this
They r well prepared to receive grain
of all kinds, having plenty of room,
with scales, elevators, &c. Connected
with this department they have a first
class corn-sheller, capable of Smelling
M hundred bushels of corn per hour,
operated by steam power. The eleva-
tors are also worked by steam. The
Railroad Company has kindly consent
ed to lay a side track for the accommo-
dation of the warehouse. This build
ing has been put up at a cost of about
"a, 800, but they contemplate several
Improvements among which
will be a feed stable to accommodate
the teams of farmers hauling grain to
their warehouse. Farmers will here
after find a ready market for all kinds
of grain and seeds, and we have no
doubt that business in this line will
rapidly improve.
There is a large room underneath the
warehouse, which has been rented to
parties designing to enter somewhat
extensively into the pork-packing
business. This will also open a branch
of trade hitherto amounting to but
little here. The facilities for packing
and shipping will be very good, and
we predict success for the enterprise.
Nj. THOMAS EVANS has moved into
his beautiful and spacious new store
room, directly south of his old stand.
This is certainly a handsome room, not
surpassed by any in town, being 100
feet long by 80 wide, and finished in a
highly creditable manner. Nj. Evans
will soon combine with his stock of
Tinware, &C., a large stock of Hard
ware. He deserves great credit for
the enterprise he has shown in erect
ing the new and substantial block in
which his new room is located.
Messrs. LYBRAND q Sons new build
ing is being pushed forward toward
completion. They will move into their
beautiful and convenient new room in
a few days. North of their store room
is a very pleasant room for an office,
and on the second floor there are three
rooms for offices, two of which have
already been rented. Above these is
one large room. The manufacturing
department will be up stairs in the real
part of the building, and readily &C.
cessible from the store room.
Mr.. CHARLES CRoNKLETON will sooI

first door east of Thompson's Livery
Stable. He will have a very nice stort
