Work n the II. Il II. Yards.

The ship yards of the Harlan 4 Hol
lingsworth company are beginning to
assume busy aspect and as fast as
the work is being developed new hands
are taken on. The Philadelphia Ferry
boat to ply between Vine street wharf
and Camden, is framed and nearly
sheeted. The New York ferry boat to
run on the East river Is on the ways
and in few days will be in frame. The
keel blocking ior large yacht tor agen-
tleman in New York is now being laid
and the large Baltimore boatis now un.
dergoing the moulding process in the
moulding loft. The barge "Vesper,
of Warmers line, which had been over
haul.d left the wharves yesterday, and
the barge annie" of the same line
took her place for an overhauling. The
steamer Columbia" which has been
completely overhauled and repaired,
was taken out of the dry dock TO day,
and the steamer Twilight took her
place for repairs. There are other con
tracts in consideration but not yet fully
secured but which We doubt not will be-
which will make one Of the busiest

Our Letter Carriers

In yesterdays paper We published an
article headed Stamps for Unprepared
Letters. In justice to the Letter Car
riers OF Wilmington We will state that
the article was taken from one of our
exchanges and not from any person in
this city. All letters that are not prop
erly stamped in the Wilmington post
Office have an impression OF the amount
due on them put on hy the distributing
clerk. The dues on the letters are
then charged on a slate, to the carriers,
and in the evening they make their re-
turns on slip. Should they fail to
collect the money due on the letter not
properly stamped they, the carriers, are
the losers and not the government. Mr..
Pyle, the efficient Postmaster OF this city,
has his business so systematically ar
ged that there is 10 possibility of
the carrier getting anything from the
office. We are unable to say how other
Offices are carried on, but such is the
manner in which the Office in this city
is condr cted. The carriers all of them
are honest men and even if disposed to
be dishonest under Mr.. Pyle's rule they
could not be so. We cheerfully make
this correction in justice to Mr.. Pyle's
efficient force of letter carriers.
