fear of successful contradiction that q

Of citizens we have not met here foI
many years. | must congratulate Del

tors to their fellow townSmen-wht
are here engaged in business.
Amongst those who are here are Il Z,
O'Rourke of the Wilmington House.
Georgia Avenue, and Joseph Orme OF the
Delaware County House, on Pacific and
Georgia avenues. The scene at each ol
these places was almost indeScribabIe
it being the desire Of the visited and
the visitors to have the pleasure of q
good shake hands together AMI TO con
gratulate their two Wilmington broth
ers away from home for their enter
prising spirit shown in opening two
first class hotels. Mr.. Seigle's band
which accompanied the excursion gave
the two mentioned gentlemen good
send off by dispensing some choice Sc
lectionS of music at each house. AT [

panied it.

Some Great PennsyIVap1a Estates.

Interview with cX-Gov. Cultin in n. y. Tri.
bunc.
(Which estate will net the most to the
heirs that Of Colonel Thomas a. Scott
or tie Estate Of Asa Packer"
81 think that the Packer estate is the
best. 1t is generally held to be worth
81, 100000, without eXaggeration. The
estate Of ColCne. Scott is large, bit
think the newspapers rate it too high.
/ should put it tdown at about 81, 900, 900.
Considering everything, that is y very
great result for such an active aud ven
turesome mind as Col. Scott's. Some
of the largest fortunes in Philadelphia
have been accumulated by the manu-
facturers. There is Mr.. Weightman, of
the firm of drug manufacturers which
mohopoIized the Quinine. He is one OF
the richest men in Pennsylvania The
estate ofGillingham Fell is very large.
DiSston, the saw manufacturer, has
made a large amount of T0ncy. Dob
son the carpet anutacturer, has done
a great business. The Baldwin Loco
motive works, as you know are the
LARGEST in the world. Sellers, the
boiIermaker, is anothergreat force with
us. In Pittsburg the largest fortune |
presume to be That of William Thaw,
who is at the head of the Pennsylvania
railroad lines west OF Pennsylvania.
He is now a director in the PennSylvan-
ia railroad. Some reckon his means at
SlOO0O,OO0 Hostetter, the bitterS man,
is also very rich in PiCtsburg. One of
the most successful men i'll our State
is A. }. Cassat, Vice President of the
Pennsylvania railroad. He was boy
of plain, respectable family III Pitts
burg: He entered the railroad service
near the bottom and has worked his
way up till he is one of the great mas
ters of railroad details, and by his ad-
dress is considerable of public and
social man, and his sagacity has made
him large fortune"

THE PHILADELPHIA North Ameri-
can thinks that President Garrett, of
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany, is immovably fixed upon obtain
ing for his company an entirely indie
pendent connection with Philadelphia
and New York, and in which purpose
he will ultimately succeed, though it
will cost great deal. Of money" We
thought six months ago about what the
American n9~ thinks, and i, was given
out four months ago, that the part Of
the line from this city to Philadelphia
wSs'to be built and in operation by the
first of June. The President, however,
was away in Europe at that time, and
perhaps was not fully posted about the
promises his subordinates were making.

If IT WOULD do any good we would
tell the farmers how much we pity
them in their struggle with bad wealth
er to save their hay and harvest their
grain. 1t is good weather that not
only the farmers, but lab0rers and me-
chanics want, for if the farmer fails TO
save his crops, it will be dark day for
everybody else. Bread is the staff Of
life, and without wheat, there will be
no wheat bread at least. and then we
would have TO fly to "Johnnie" cakes
and pone. But what if the corn fails
We don't like to contemplate it. After
all, somehow, it does seem that we are
under great obligations to the farmers,
and we sincerely hope that they and
Vennor may compromise on good
weather long enough to save the wheat
crop.

IT Is In MEXICO this time where a
railroad train is run over an enbank-
1aent and 200 persons killed. AS rail
roads are but new thing in Mexico,
we may expect an opposition to arise i'll
that country against a sS stem which
hurls 200 souls into eternity in a few
minutes without warning. The MeXicans
can stand a revolution once year and
the slaughter Of several thousand peo-
pie at every revolution. but they can
hardly be expected 10 tak6 htNdly to
the railroad system Of thinning out the
population. Seriously though, this is
q terrible accident and the causes
which led to it should be fully investi-
gated. If it occurred through the ne
glect or carelessneSs Of. some officer Or
employe of The road, his life would be
but a small forfeit for the mischief he
has done.

The Increased Police Force.

Mayor Almond has appointed Mint
additional policemen in accordance
with the requirements of the ordinance
passed couple of weeks ago, and they
go on duty the first of July. A glance
over the namee of the lucky ones who
have been favored by the Mayor with
appointments we notice that his Honor
has not been Influenced by the motives
which actuate8 Mayor King of Phila-
de,phia who has resolved TO appoint a
number OF colered men on the police
force. However, we never expected
this, as Mayor Almond is not Mayor
King, though both are Democrats and
Wilmington is not Philadelphia. 1t
will be noticed hEwever that his Honor
has been extremely liberal to the Over
all portion of the Democracy and SO far
As he is concerned that class Of persons
that the Democrats party scarcely ever
exalts beyond a policeman or City
Councilman, are to lie largely represen-
ted on the police force. We are not
complaining of this at all, for we think
that the gentlemen appointed have
earned their appointment by hard solid
work for the party, and without the
Irish Catholic element now in the as
cendant on the force, the Democracy of
Delaware would not stand the ghost of
a CHANGE of success i'll the State, nor i'll
the city. The Mayor has again tried the
experiment of making Il policeman out
of an unlicensed liquor seller up to the
time the amended liquor law went into
effect. This gentleman however may
make Z very efficient officer in preserv-
ing the peace, as another officer taken
from the same illegal business has done,
and we would say nothing to create all
unfaVorable opinion against linn until
he has proven himself He will receive
every Dark OF appreciation and credit
from us if he makes a model officer.
We are not intimately acquainted with
any OF the new appOintees but we hope ;
they may all make good and efficient
officers, and reCsiYe the appreciation OF .
The ordec loving class of citizens. The ,
force when al on duty will consist of ,
thirty one patrolmen, two specials at :
the City Hall, four Sergeanto and one
Chief. The summer special at the City q
Park to watch "bums" playing cuchre, :
and three Summer specials OH the Bran
dywine, added to the regulars make an a
entire police force during the summer, Of ,
forty-two men. This should make ,
. @;aarceptible difference in the good order ,
have Won a a hough it bears vvfittle hard
q On the pockets of the lsax-payers.

THE COMET Is THE chief object Of at
traction yet, though it could not be seen
last night on account Of the clouds that
interviewed. Professor Draper, of New
York, snatched II pretty good photograph
of the celestial visitor on Saturday, as
he was cavorting around amongst plan
cts and stars. The general opinion is
that it is now receding from our Sys-
tenn as it has already passed the nearest
point to the sun. Its distance from the
sun is about 69,OOo,OOO miles and from
this little earth that is to be smashed
into smithereens, if we believe all we
hear, about twice year, it is about 30,-
100000 miles distant. 1t can be seen
for some tine to come yet.

THERE, NOW, "Pat" is out again.
The nire additional policemen have
been appointed and Patrick Gardner's
name is not amongst them. Republics,
it is said, are ungrateful and Mr.. Gard
ner may think the same of the Demo
cratic party of Wilmington. He can,
however, WELD the spade and broome
awhile longer. There is yet dazzling
future for him and though for the
time being the coveted prize has slipped
from his grasp, the time may not be far
distant when he shall be clothed in blue
and brass, aud wear star IL is due,
however, to Mr.. Gardner to state that
he denies that he ever made application
to be appointed on the police force.

Mayor King and Colored Police.

|
Mayor King, of Philadelphia, elected
by the votes of the Democrats and a
number of Reform Republicans has
decided to appoint upon police force a
number of colored men. just how
many will be given position has not been
determined upon, but Mayor King says
he is firmly of the opinion thai the col
cred men should have proper recognition
and he proposes to give it in spite OF the
Iprotestations of some of his most inti-
ma ate counsellors. We are pleased that
there is one municipal officer i'll our
large cities, and he is a Democrat, who
is determined to do what is u simple act
of Justice to a despised race, despite the,
clamors of politicians. AS Mayor hlng
was elected as an Independent he is not
bound by the party restraints Of either
party, nor need he be influenced by their
preiudices or their favors. AS the
rough bark of political prejudice wears
away the great mass of the people Will
be surprised that there ever existed such
an uncomfortable prejudice against the
colored race as has been and still is
We are frank to say that
We are agreeably disappointed in Mayor
King. What he has resolved to do
should have been dCne long ago by his
predecessor. Colored men
serve as policemen in nearly all the
cities South Of Richmond and we believe
in Some Virginia towns, and give as
much satisfact on, and are as faithful,
efficient and honest as white policemen.
It is only in the north where the people
profess to be the true friends Of the col
,re1 peop'e that studied effort has
,een made to exclude colored men from
he offices and emOluments Of party
atronage. 1t is not likely that Mayor
King is under any obligations Whatever
} the colored voters of Philadelphia for
is election, and therefore the praise be
,ngs to him for The firm and independ-
ut stand he has taken in favor of right
nd justice. 1t may just be possible
lat the whole tking is a political dodge
, catch votes for the Democratic party,
ut if it is it will hardly placate such
lplacable Democrats as the Samuel
ownsend stripe, many of whom no
oubt reside in Philadelphia as well as
Delaware.

LADIES, YOUR ATTENTION.

We are selling more muslin underwear
than ever before, but not enough, not tenth
part of what we should sell, if every lady
who reads this would take the pains to see
our work.
We ought to sell two million dollars
worth a year, because we have the whole
trade to ourselves. True, the common grade
of shop underwear is in many of the stores
we don't keep that grade. Our underwear
is as perfect relief from family sewing as
our ready-made mems and boys clothing is
a relief from tailoring; greater; for nobody,
NOBODY, NOBODY wants better plain un-
