Extending their Trade.

The Messrs. Crosby & Hill, enterpris,
ing dry goods dealers Of this city, have
been 50 much encouraged in business
since they came to Wilmington, that
they have opened large branch dry
goods store in our neighboriDg city OF
Chester, and at their opening which
took place on last Friday evening the
store was throngsd with the Chester
people who are always wide awake and
ready to encourage new enterprises.
The Chester branch is under the
supervision of Mr.. D. NJ. Ross who has
been with the firm since they first open
ed out in Wilmington. The patronage
at the opening was SO encouraging as
to give them reason to hope that their
new enterprise will be we'll supported.
The fact that the Messrs. Crosby K Hill
puroh ased the ground and erected their
own store upon it shows that the en-
terprise is to be permanent fixture,
and from what we know of them we
can tell our Chester neighbors that
they are highly favored by having such
an enterprising firm in their midst.
Daily Republican., 1879-10-01

The attempt Of the Democratic news-
papers to hold the Republican party
responsible for any ill-feeling that ex'
lists between the North and the South,
or for the absence of prosperity in the
South, is ridiculous. A few years ago
the depression Of every business inter
est in that region was attributed to the
carpet -baggsrs and to their misrule.
But for more than two years the whole
region had been held tight and fast by
the native Democrats and there has
been no advance worth noting during
that time. The want of prosperity is
due to two things: to the repudiation
which scares off capital and to the po-
litical persecution which paralyzes Ia
Dor, and for these two things the Demo
Gratis are wholly responsible. AS fol
ill-feeling, the loyal people Of the
North will never be satisfied with the
South until truly Democratic princi-
pies prevail there and until the South
srn Congressman represent the majority
and no. a small faction.

Imprisoned for Twenty.One Years
i'm o Pen.

Imprisoned for Twenty.One Years
in . Pen.
From the Henderson (Ky.) News.
Twenty. one years ago man by the
name Of Mccormick, who lives two-and
a-half miles northeast of SaltillO, Har-
din county, became insane, and instead
Of sending him to an asylum his family
built pen eight by ten feet and i'm
prisoned the man in it. The pen is
situated about thirty feet from the
dwelling, and has neither door, window
nor floor. His provisions are pushed
through the cracks between the logs.
His bed consists Of 4 or s logs extending
across the pen at the back end, and
the bed-clothing consists Of one quilt.
From the appearance Of the inside Of
the pen one would come to the conclu-
sion that the chickens had roasted
over the mans head. He has been
living in this manner for twenty-one
years, and We are Of the opinion
that it has been that period since he
has washed himself, and his toe-nails
are about one inch and q Lalf long
The old gentleman has property enough
to support him in some respectable
asylum, but other parties are reaping
the benefits of the same, and he is i'm
pris0red in an old hog pen.

Lecture on Darwinism.

! Prot. Cummings lecture last night
doubled the former audience. The
lecturer held the audience by his prac-
tical delineations as we'll az his words,
and the interest In this course Is sodeep
that we anticipate full houses for the
lectures yet to be delivered. The fol-
lowing is an abstract:
The speaker held that the first cry Of
the human mind was an outcry OF won
der. "Who and where was he," cried
an ancient Hindoo, "the one without
bones who made the first fellow with
bonesl" The only one breathed breath
less by itself. Unlike the Hindoo, the
Hebrew did not concern himself with
distractions. He proclaimed the mere
fact Of creation and did not concern
himself about methods. Method Is
the concern OF science.
The lecturer then showed that ma
turs is in a perpetual fiux. He showed
how plants taken from the Atlantic to
the Pacific coast change. He showed
how animals change and how nature
within 400 years has made new
species of rabbit on the island OF Porto
Santo. He showed what forces the
Divine will employ in creating species,
the chief factions being change of con-
dition and struggle for life. Going
back then to the earliest recorded life
he sketched succession Of species as
they appeared from period to period
till the procession eliminated in the
ape. 49,,
The lecture tomorrow evening will
be on theme Of the deepest interest
and cannot fail to attract full house.
1t is the Origin Of Man.

an Anger Unawares.

L. R. Brown, young physician,
formerly Of Shelbina, Mo-, now OF Wash
ington, Iowa, recently came into for
tune, In 1869 a man by the name Of
N. B. C. stakeheimer, living in the
southern part Of the State, was in lndi-
ana attending law suit and bought a
ticket from indianapolis to Galesburg,
Ill. While waiting for the train he was
robbed of the ticket, his money and all
he had, about $S5 worth. The only way
left was to walk. He landed in Shelbina
footsore, weary and hungry, his shoes
worn out and feet all blistered. The first
man hs met was young Brown, who
took him to a hotel, got him his sup.
per, gave him a pair of old shoes aud
money to take him to Kansas City.
stakeheimer left Missouri, went to
South America, struck streak OF luck
and amassed $lI, 900. A few weeks ago
he came to San Francisco, where he
died, leaving a little fortune to his ben
efactor.
