THE DELAWARE RIVER.


All along thelineof the Delaware from vii
nnngton to Richmond, stretch of over thirty
miles, q scene of unusual industry meets the
eye. The river is full Of vessels, ever moving
to and fro, a;wogderful and most interesting
panorama,, ,india4ong the shore remarkable i'll
'dustry and thrift greet the inquirer.
Wilmington is hive of industry-so is
Chester-and this may be said of all the towns
on tile Delaware, near Philadelphia.
Population trebles every year betwixt vii.
niington and Philadelphia. owing to the good
sense Of the Philadelphia, Wilmington and
Baltimore road, and the enterprise ofScitizens
like Mr.. Thomas Cochran. who is building
largely and promoting industries OF every
kind
We have spoken of the grand improvements
OF the Pennsylvania Railroad and those Of the
Reading road. &c..
From information received through the Of
fee of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company,
we are assured that the contract with MI.
John Roach. of Chester, for the build of three
new steamships for this company has been
completed. The contract III for three first class,
ships, to be constructed of iron, each to cost,
ready for sea, S60O,0O0. This makes the total
cost involved 81 ,s0O.OO0 In addition, there is
an allowance OF 100000 for the outfit" Of
each steamer. -..
II is stipulated that they shall be built ac-
cording to the French Veritas, which is the
highest standard known to maritime author
tiles. Moreover, theae steamers are guarteed
to have fifty per cent. more power than the
Colima and Colon, and they will be fifty feet
longer. The entire contract must be complet-
ed in three months--the ships finished.
The officers of the Pacific Mail Company con-
tend that ships of equal size and style of equip
inent cannot be built for less money in Europe
or elsewhere, and that they will equal anything

TI,e Churches sunday

The weather Sunday was the most delight
full we have had for several weeks, and the
congregations at the various churches of the
city were large, giving little evidence Of the
absence of those who have gone to the noun
tains, to the seashore, or to the homes Of
g" country cousins to spend this, usually
the most disagreeable month of the year.
Most of the city pastors were found at
their posts, but the services were not mark
ed by much out of the usual course. In the
morning the pulpit of Clay Street Methodist
church was filed by Rev. DR.. W. W. Ben
nett, editor of the Christian Adcocate, while
the pastor, Rev. Mr.. Woodward, conducted
the services at the Union Station church.
There was no preaching at Nicholson-Street
church, owing to the illness Of MIR. Mullen
revival is in progress there. AT all the
other Methodist churches there were the
usual Sabbath services by the pastors.
Rev. II. Lansing Burrows, Of New Jersey,
| filled the pulpit OF the First Baptist church
on Sunday morning; and at night preached
| to large and attentive audience at the
Second Baptist. Rev. J. l.. Burrows, u.
| D., favored the Second Baptist congregation
| in the morning with 4 sermon OF his usua!
| ability. Rev. Kerr 3. Tupper occupied
morning and night the pulpit of Rev. Or.
Wilson, now absent from the city. The
congregations were large and appreciatiye.
After the services of the night, Rev. j. K.
Garlick baptized one candidate for member
ship.
Rev. Henry R. Dickson, Of Yorkvile, S.
c., preached at the First Presbyterian
church in the morning, and at Grace-Street
Presbyterian church in the evening; both
sermons were pronounced admirable and
were attentvely heard by large congrega'
tiopS. In the absence of Rev. DR.. Hoge,
| his pulpit was filled in the morning by Rev.
DR.. William Brown, and in the evening by
Rev. w. A. Campbell, Of Manchester.
Rev. Wv. Green, of Pittsylvana county,
occupied the pulpit of Grace Episcopal
church, now vacant, in the morning, and
preached at ST. Marks church in the evening,
and delivered very acceptable and able SER

DARING BURGLARY Sometime during Sun.
day night the residence Of MIR. Michael
Doran, on the corner Of Twenty-seventh and
Leigh streets, was entered by burglars and
clothes and money taken to the value of
$500. The thieves cut the Stats from the
window on the north side Of the house on
the lower floor, then raised the sash, and en-
tered. In the room was bureau contain
ing clothes and money-the bottom drawer
also containing the keys to q drawer in
which were twenty-five dollars in green.
backs Itseems the keys were first found,
and the other drawers unlocked and the
bureau then ransacked of all the clothes and
carried into the yard. A trunk was also
carried out, the contents taken out, and it
left in the yard, and in the field adjoining the
house one OF Mr.. Doran's shirts was drop
ped. LIN the trunk was also five dollars in
specie, which the thieves carried of, with the
exception of four quarters, which were scat
tered about the yard. Mfr. Doran's pants,
banging at the foot of bis bed, were also
taken; in fact, all the clothes of Mr.. and
Mrs. D. were carried of, except few be-
longing to Mrs. D. Mr.. Doran is under the
impression that be was drugged, else, being
easy to awake, he would have been disturbed
by the thieves. The loss to Mr. Doran is
quite heavy, as he has been out of employ
ment for number of months, being stone
cutter engaged on the Government contract.
He is an industrious and worthy gentleman.
and has the sympathy Of bis neighbors and
friends in his troubles. We believe several
parties are under suspicion as being engaged
In this bold transaction.
