THE PORT OF NORFOLK.
Ihe Financial Review or ISruSScl.
Compliments It Highly.

The Financial Review OF May 1st,
published at Brussels. Belgium, has the
following to say about the port and city
OF Norfolk:
We'll arranged and conveniently To-
Gated on the Chesapeake bay, near the
mouth Of James River. the port OF Nor
folk offers extraordinary facilities,
when compared with the other Ameri-
can Atlantic ports.
1T is, indeed. the natural terminus Of
all railroad lines OF the South on the
east Of the Appalachian range or noun
tains, and is made by this fact an ex-
ceilent distributing point for foreign
merchandise destined to the neighboring
sections, While ut the same time Offering
the greatest facilities for the export of
the productions Of the country
1T Is we'll to remark that the popula-
ton Of Norfolk has almost doubled in
the past twelve years, that many new
industrial enterprises have been estab-
lished there, and that the trade Of the
port has already acquired considcra BILE
Importance.
'Under these circumstances, 1t is Very
astonishing to find that no house OF any
Importance, in the export and import
business. has sought to avail itself of
the many advantages offered by the city
and port OF Norfolk, in establishing
there the centre of it's commercial trans
actions
With the view OF correcting at least
to some degree, this abnormal state Of
affairs. and in order to advance the de-
Velopment OF the city, the Chamber of
commerce of Norfolk has just publish
ed report. with maps and Illustrations
IN which are pointed out all the advan-
tases offered by the city and port Of
Norfolk, their resources. manufactures,
port receipts, a list Of the principal az
ticles Imported and exported, the trans
portation lines. the climate. the banks,
me suburbs, etc. This pamphlet to
which we draw the attention of those
interested can be seen at the CONNER
cial Museum In Brussels"

was about $50 feet above the river, and
thirty miles TO the southwark lay the
growing metropolis of a young republic
that even then promised to rival IN popu~
laton the mightiest monarchies of Eu-
rope. Yet it was with the EXTREMIST eau
ton that these humble men proceeded
to inaugurate what is now one of the
principal branches of river traffic. They
dug pit during the summer, and when
winter came Hlled it with solid crystal
cakes that New York now knows as Rock
land lake ice When summer came, they
built a rude cart, with wheels made from
the cross Sections of a log, and allowed it
10 trundle down the steep incline to the
water side, carrying about ton OF ice.
The New York Steamboat Company took
it to the city full, and brought it back
empty, as long as the supply lasted, and
the result was so satisfactory from a
financial point of view that the business
was continued Two years later the firm
of Barmore. Feltor & Co. purchased a
landing At the river side below the lake,
built an ice house capable of holding 1,500
tons, formed a company into which seven-
teen neighbors put $lOG apiece, and the
great knckerbocker Ice Company was
founded

The film runs like belt on wheels and

purposes 1000 or even less per minute will

The advantages OF mutosclplc photog-

especially as regards the action of bacteria

families Of bacteria have motion,
often motion that the eye cannot

ready been discovered that the same kind
OF bacteria will act very differently under
different circumstances. For instance. a
fish OF bright Hight will suddenly drive
some kinds to cover. Some kinds will read

They Will also seek food with avidity and

phenomena can, OF course, be fo.owed with

For the requirements Of life vary with
varying conditions. and one is as stupid
