PHILADELPHIA AND NEW York AS IN
DUSTRIAL MODELS.

New York is essentially commercial-buying
and selling city Philadelphia has equally
marked characteristics, as producing, indus
trial, manufacturing, city. Tho former is busy,
busting, turbulent, as great mercantileimetrop-
oils naturally becomes while the latter is quiet,
orderly, and conservative in its habits, because
its people are closely and busily employed, in
labors that do not admit of excitement and dis
turbance.
As a model for an industrial city, Philadelphia
is by far the better, and Wilmington is benefited
by the fact that she is neighbor to it, and not to
New York. Our habits are like those of Phila-
pdelphia our municipal order is largely copied
from that city our people are influenced, in a
Thousand instances, which they may not recog-
nze, but which, nevertl eless, exist, by the con-
figuity of Philadelphia, and, as we have already
said, she finds her great advantage in it.
Using the language of New York Times it
may be, with entire truth, said that Philadelphia
as compared with New York, has two very marked
characteristics. One of these is the much small
er number of strikes; the other is the far more
comfortable condition of the workpeople. In
regard to the first point-although there are no
statistics from which any very exact estimate
can be made-we do not think that we can be
accused of exAggeration if we say that in the
last ten years there have been, even in proper
tion to the population at least five times as
many days work of individuals lost from strikes
in New York as in Philadelphia
So, also, as to the second proposition. The
superior comforts which are attainable in Phila-
delphia, by the mechanic and workingman, are
matters of established notoriety. His wages
may be slightly less than in New York, but their
purchasing power of comforts for himself and
family is immensely greater.
III this Wilmington copies Philadelphia, but
improves on the model. Our own city provides
in greater degree, even, than our great neigh
Dor, healthy, cheap and comfortable homes for
the masses moderate taxation fair munich
pal government excellent public schools and
abundant and cheap markets. An industrious
man, trained to some ordinary branch Of EN-.
ployment and blessed with health and strength
can maintain a family in our city, comfortably,
and almost luxuriously, He can acquire, in a
reasonable time, the ownership of his own home;
can educate hischildren, freely, and very com
pletely; and can enjoy large share OF the most
real and substantial enjoyments which life Of
sobriety, unstimulated by excess, affords
In these respects, Philadelphia is our model
rather than New York, and far preferable

Editorial Extracts From the Great Dal


Mr.. eREELLY AS A STATESMAN AND A JOURNALIST.
IFrom the N. Y world.l
His oficous rewriting of the Cincinnati plat
form, which he acknowledges Is succinctly and
ably expressed, is such display Of weak liter
airy vanity, and such parading of his ability to
write good English, as shows that he was not
born to be a statesman, Craftsmanship deals
with things, not with phrases II Mr.. Greeley
approves and accepts the Cincinnati platform,
which he praises and applauds, why need he
have rewritten 1t in his letter OF acceptaLceI
1t is an offensive assumption of superiority IN
the committee who drafted the resolutions, an
''smells OF the shop" in which Mr.. Greeley llAs
so long worked. A journalist must be able to
write that is his function But it is the BUSH
ness of statesman to direct and judge; and
this faculty may, or may not, be accompanied
with writing ability. Mr.. Greeley's letter Of
acceptance proves that he is mere journalist,
and nothing else. His elaborate rewriting OF
the Cincinnati platform is such assumption Of
superiority in a minor matter as the committee
that prepared the resolutions will naturally re-
sent at all events, it ia q most unexampled
thing in a letter Of acceptance.

TRYING TO Guido STEWART AND JIM FISK.
1t is evident that Helmbold's failure was due
to great vanity. 1t is about four years since he
was making his greatest dash, and then his ca
reer certainly was a remarkable one. He had
only been three years in trade in New York, and
during that time had made his remedies famous
and had become rich. His income was $50, 900
per year, and all that was required was q con-
tinued attention to the business which he had
established. Instead Of this, however, he be-
came ambitious of political distinction. When
Grant was nominated for the Presidency, A. 7.
Stewart advanced $50, 600 toward an electioneer-
ing fund. Helmbold, who had the folly to be-
lieve in Seymour's chances, determined to Guido
Stewart, and consequently advanced SAC, 900 to
his party Forty Thousand dollars is large sum
of money. 1t has generally been considered cap
ital sufficient for many kinds of business. That
man should deliberately throw such sum away

equlpage at Long Branch was the grandest ever
seen there, with the single exception Of that
displayed by Jim Fisk. There was an incessant
rivalry between this brace Of fools but in the
long run Fisk came out ahead, which might have
been expected from his unbridled ambition and
vast resources. Helmbold changed his team
