The National Board OF Trade watchfui OF
the Wilminxtonians.


The Wilmington delegates to the annual
meeting of the National Board of Trade,
which convened at the Shoreham, Wash
ington. ID. O.. returned last Thursday.
Messrs. d. W. Taylor, W. ID. Mullen and
A. $. Reed. who comprised the delegation
from this city were met by representa-
tive of THE GAZETTE on Thursday. They
all Speak very emphatically of the neces-
sity and importance of Wilmington
Board of Trade keeping at close touch
with the National Board,
Congressman Catlsey was seen and
Daniel W. Taylor took opportunity of
ascertaining the exact status of the deep
ening of the Christiana question. Mr..
Causey says everything is in proper posi-
ton for success now. The survey is going
on. When il is completed and the report
made, the new Congressman, Mr.. Willis,
need only be watchtul that it be placed ON
the permanent list.
There were some pleasantries during
the sessions Of the national board. It
seems the members have very vivid
recollection of the activity and persist
ence OF the Wilmington delegates. During
the discussion on the great interstate
waterway, Mr.. Taylor got upand informed
the members that he and his colleagues
are specially interested in that section of
the waterway known us the Delaware a.
Chesapeake canal
A delegate from New York Immediately
arose and remarked that ii that be the case
and Delaware is satisfied the national
board may rest in peace. The inference
was that nothing must be done without
giving full consideration to all the needs,
present and prospective, OF little Delaware.

A correspondent of the Occide,,taL Medical
Times writes from Berlin: when [
worked in Professor Arnold laboratory in
Heidelberg. ten years ago, it was known as
the American Laboratory At that time
the Americans frequently exceeded the Ger
mans in numbers and Heidelberg always
mas been favorite rendezvous for Ameri-
can physicians. In conversation with
Prof. Arnold few weeks ago, lie assured
methat thenumbero Of American physicians
who did work in pathological anatomy at
his laboratory was diminishing each year.
This falling of in attendance he attributed
to the improved facilities for such instruc-
ton in the United States. When the
professors Of such branches as anatomy,
physiology, and pathology said he can
devote themselves solely to their respective
subjects, the pre-emiiience of American
medicine will be assured. "
