Shin kspiIlIinS,

At the ship yard of Enoch Moore work
is very brisk. TO accommodate the re-
vival of business and to render the
decks, &C., more navigable, the Chris
tiana in front of the yards will be deep
ened.
Yesterday the propeller "Green-
wich, " recently built by Mr.. Moore for
c. Holmes & Son, of Greenwich, Conn.,,
made her trial trip. She averages over
twelve miles an hour.
The sloop "Olivia," Of Odessa, was
placed upon the railway, and " Mary
Ann, from Little Creek Landing, ar
rived at the works. The schooner
" Alaska, " belonging to William Lea
& Sons, of this city, and the "Path-
finder. " OF Baltimore, are in for re-
pairs.

and Rad Roads.
Prosperity reigns at Riddles Banks,
though the large cotton mills formerly
operated by the firm of J. Riddle, Son
4 Co. have been leased to other parties.
Mr.. Lsander +. Riddle still remains at
the works, exercising q general super
intendency, but like Othello, with his
occupation at least half gore. Mr.. W.
M. Field, his brother-in-law and former
active partner in business, is travelling
in Europe, and letter from him states
that his health, which was poor before
he went, is much improved.
William Wier & Son have removed
from their former place Of business in
the mills, to two story building ou
Riddles Road, where he has put up
very pretty two horse power englne,
which is necessary to aid him in the
prosecution Of his business. Mr.. Wier
4 Son were engaged in covering thros-
sells and mule rollers, things known to
manufacturers. They cover about 1000
a week, and send them to the various
cotton mills throughout the country.
They make a speciality of supplying
all the mills on the Brandywina They
have been at this business over thirty
years. Stepping into his place yester-
day, we were shown some very super
ior specimens of workmanship.
Across the creek from Riddles bu: a
little lower down are the extensive Au-
gustine paper mills of Jessup & Moore,
which are also in full operation. This
firm probably the largest paper manu-
featuring firm il America have had their
pulp mandatory in Manayunk on
property not their own and getting
tired OF paying increased rents, they
have determined to build their own
pulp works, over in the Ninth
Ward of this city, in close proximity to
their large warehouse. The building
it is said will cost about $3.50, 900 and
will be large enough to swallow up two
or three court-houses, as big as the
contemplated one in Wilmington about
which there is SO much contention. The
estimates for the work are now being
made in Philadelphia, and we under
stand that John Quigley, of this city,
having heard Of it is amongst the bid.
ders. The building it is said will be
commenced this summer.
The hands employed at the Angus.
tine mills, but living on the west side
Of the Brandywine are advocating the
building of foot bridge across the
creek at the mills, and for this pur-
pose they have $500 subscribed, but
as the bridge will cost 81 900 they are
still short. 1t has been suggested that
the City Council often throws away a
hundred dollars that could be more
usefully expended if donated to assist
in the building of this bridge.
Messrs. Harris and Lindsey at the
mills are using all their exertions to
have the bridge built. The works have
been lately attached by telephone to
the telephone centre at 3rd and Market

more people leaving the cities for the

the sea shore, some away up north to

ly on the eggs you are eating to be
fresh, and you can take walk or run
with the children, dress to suit your
self and not have any fear of hearing
of Mrs. a. or B. criticising you, and
it is rest indeed.
If the brain-racked merchant or the
weary mother is seeking rest and quie'

country boarding houses are the places
to find it.

were Of % different uation-a nation of
thieves and robbers. Two Of these robbers
were very fierce and terrible looking, so
much 50 that they were called The liOu-like

mischief, were attacked by him, and he
killed them both. On another occasion he
fought an Egyptian giant. This giant was
famous fellow and if the other lion-like
men were terrible locking, this one was
more 50. He was SO tall that he could not
enter IN ordinary house door without stoop

would not fetch the cream for her, no.

"a To take care of the horses, and clean

You say right, answered the master,
" and do not expect you to DO more than
