Roy. Dr. McCahe, OF ST. AIMS Episcopal
Church, MiddletOwn, closed his ministry
there Sunday week, and that on the even

sermon 10 a very large audience. On that
occasion he chose for his text the follow
ing: Finally. brethren, farewell! bc
perfect. he of good comfort, he Of one mind

The Doctors sermon WAS u powerful one
throughout, and his tribute of farewell 10

The changes additions and improvements
made to the buildings OF our city have heon
nearly As numerous as In any preceding
year. a. will be seen hv reference TO the
tables In this report. The change OF the
curbstone market from Market street to
King street while II has not apparently
affected the business Of Market street has
perceptihlv improved the business Of King
street. The work on new streets has been
vigorously pushed forward, and about the
usual number OF new houses built. The
city has greatly improved its facilities for
supplying Brandvwine water BY the erec-
tion Of No. Worthiugton Pump capable
Of pumping FIVE millions gallons per day.
This, with the old pumps. makes the
total pumping capacity OF the water
works eight million gallons per day.
The present average consumption Of water
Ia but two millions and-a-half gallons per
day A new reservoir IL about being built,
capable Of holding about one hundred mil
lion gallOns Therefore we have the graft
Tying fact that our supply OF water wiz be
sufficlent for many years 10 come and the
future growth Of the city well provided for.
On the whole. there Ia, Notwithstanding the
gloomy condition Of business At this partic-
ular time, nothing that need discourage us
about our city, hut much 70 encourage US to
continue to labor and have faith.
STATISTICS.
We submit below'A table OF Statistics
which can he relied on a. not overstated
hlNHnukl cpNnpilfu NFluNlVAiN from n COM
psrison with other years. while the proilts
Of the business Of the past year m4v not
heve been equal to that OF some preceding
years, the amount OF business has. on the
whole, increased. as a Careful inquiry has
proved. This IS true 0f nearly every branch
Of BUSINESS in the tables Next year we
shall have some valuable additions 10 make
to the tables with regard TO iron, as inti-
mated In another part Of this report.
Some OF the items In these tables NAV not
be understood when compared with the
TABLES OF last year. II will be noticed that
last year In the column Of "Canital I'm.
ployed.n the capital Of some new firms WAS
included tut uot their production, SO that
this year differan6e will he noticed In the
column OF "VRlue of Articles Manufac.

calculations as correct a. possible. and they
will, we think, be found not over, but rather
understated. The estimated annual in

larged between the East and the West.
until boats and cars are ever in readiness
at each end to receive and carry any
freight that may be offered, and the
question of rates will at once regulate
itself, and we now suggest, as we often
have before, that no farmers oranges
should waste time in fighting existing
lines, or in striving to cripple or control
them by adverse legislation, when by
bestowing their means and energies into
the development and construction of in
creased facilities, they can place the
Yexed question where it will settle and
regulate itself.
We think, also. that the timid ones.
who fear the politicalinf1uenceo of a pow
erful organization of citizens, are only
borrowing trouble when there is no need
OF 1t. The people are intelligent and
naturally conservative, and they can al
ways be trusted to take care of their own
politics. Demagogues and Missionaries
can occasionally procure a transient fol-
lowing, but when reflection comes, the
public good always arises superior to ev-
cry other consideration, and the selfish
ness and greed of the few is surrendered
to the prosperity of the many. The
great want of the times is larger facili-
ties for business and a wider range of
thought. Systems need to be simplified,
and the useless and cumbersome instru
mentalities being dispensed with, and all
friction caused by conflicting interests
being harmonized by the application of
the mathematical axiom that the good of
the whole is greater than any of its
parts, men and society can then enjoy
the natural and inalienable rights guar
anteed by government, without thought
or trouble of how they ought to vote, or
what special laws are required to give
one man an advantage over his neighbor
in the race of life ....-...... ~. .
