Mr Van Opstal, of this city, i-i credi
ted with posse.-in?; a breed of wcll-ttsn'n-ed
carrier pigeons, and he is regarded as
an authority on Mich. Iff: says that tho
most valuable birds at present in use are
called the Antwerp; carriers, which spe

Linls are ab' tit tlii t e lot -nt hs i.ld. The
initiator st t- consi sts in taking thein
about a mile ironi the parent's coop and
letting them loose. The distance is
doubled the next time, and so on pro
gressively. The carrier is larger than
the common pigeon and measures about
fifteen inches in length and weighs from
one and a fourth to one and a half
lounds. The neck is long and the pec
toral muscles are large. An apjendage
of naked skin hangs across the bill and
continues down the side of the lower
inaudible. These pigeons are consider
ed the 'je::t that have the apiendage ris
ing high on t lie head, and of consider
able width across the bill, and that are
also distinguished by a wide naked cir
clet around the eyes. In Hngland it is
usual to keep the bin's in a darkened
cellar, where they are sparingly fed, for
six hours previous to the flight. The
message is usually fastened round the
upper part of the bird's kg, but care
must be taken that it is not tied so as to
impede the bird's (light.
I-'or centuries the carrier pigeon serv
ed a purpose which is row served by
the electric telegraph, and their useful
ness lias not yet entirely departed. It
is known that these birds had been utili
zed to carry messages by the Asiatics
and Romans, and timing the crusade of
!?t. Louis they were so employed Ac
cording to Tasso carrier pigeons were
used in the soige of .Jerusalem ; and
Ariso'.a makes the Castellan di Datuiata
spread the news of Orrillo's death by a
j n -sponger dove. It is well known that
dining the siege of Paris these birds
were employed to tarry me.,: ( ges beyond
the Herman lines. Long documents
printed by micro-photography on films
indestructible by water, and weighing
only a few grains, were thus tranmitted
with gieat su ess. Their conspicuous
utility during this memorable siege has
not bet n lo.t sight el' by the French gov
ernment and other Mm up' an power.
In the Jardiu d'Acclimation, Paris,
l ht re are i.epl some live thousand car
ries pigeons which are trained to pen
etrate into the furthest recesses of the
republic. The di !'!". rent forts and cities
sire a':-o stoc ked with the.- birds. Prus
sia aiso smd oilier (',:, tinental powers

they may bt. utiiied in ease of war when

that the forndei' of tie; pieat banking

of his colossal fortune through the in
strumeiitahty of U.v- i!e-t-winged mes

the revolt of the .struggle between the
contending hosts on the plains of AValer

and was thereby enabled to take advan

It is not too miicii to say that no great
indention which had not its beginning
in the decade of lSiO-ls.io has ai'pesired
in the past thirty years. In that period
occured the most signal development of
the applications of chemistry to manu
factures and agriculture : an enormous
expansion of commerce by means of rail
roads and cean steam-ships; the dis
covery of ether, and the perfection and
diffusion of some of the most precious
contributions ever made to the welfare
of mankind. In ls:V only '.si miles of
rail rood had been completed in the Uni
ted Sfates : in ls-IO they had been near
ly trebled (2, sl:; in A they had been
nearly quadrupled (o.7rS). In ls-lo Ilos
ton was connected in Worcester, and
IhilMmore w ith Washington; fiom Phil
adelphia the travelers could go no fur
ther West by rail than tha Susquehanna,
at Columbia. In ls:'. Ericsson brought
over the propeller to these hospitable
shoies. In 1810 the Cunnar.l line of
ocean steamers was established, but for
a long time only "side-wheelers were
tolerated. The first regular ship, the
I5iitannia, reached J3oston after si trip
of fourteen days and eight hours. Morse's
telegraph, after vain offers on lioth sides
of the Atlantic, was at last subsidized
by our own Government, and in 1S41
communication was opened between
Ualtimore and Washington. "What
hath God wrought !'' signaled Morse
at the capital to Alfred Vail at Balti
more. The news dispatches to the press
"by electro-telegraph" were meagre,
while public patronage was so timid that
the wits of the day made fun of a de
lighted father in Ualtimore w ho "w ired"
the news of the birth of a grandson to a
posloliioo ollicial at the capital "as if
the mail were too slow" at twenty
mies an hour. In April, lS-hi, Goodyear
was in the debtor's prison (a lodging al
most as familiar to him as his home) in
Dost on ; he had the year before found
the clew to the vulcanizing of rubber,
but the process was not reduced to a cer
tainty till 1SJ4, At about the same
time, IS4.V40, the McC'ormick rear r
was confirming the independence ot the
New World of the Old as the granny.
(As late as is:;r,.7 wheat had been im
KUted into the I'nited States from Por
tugal and the Unit ic. ) The sewing ma
chine devised by Klias Howe in ll.'i was
patented in 14'.!, but the importance of
tins invention was not fully realized for
more than a dozen years afterward.
The daguereotype dates from ls:$o, and
in Hh the enterprising Mr. Plumb be
gan taking likenesses in Dost on with
small success for some months. Five
years later his "galleries" were to be
found not only in that city, but in New
York, Philadelphia, Ualtimore, Wash
ington ami even Dubuque, Iowa. Fin
ally, July 21. IS !.'.. the patent, was is

THE STORE AND THE TRADE.
. A study of this ground plan, incom
plete as it is, will give you a better idea
of the store, and of what is in it, than de
scription can do. The store covers 2
acres ; a basement is under, and galleries
are. over, a part. The whole affords
somewhere about 5 acres of room.
Tlus particular business is 4 years old;
it began in I S76 with clothing; in 1877
it became a general store with such goods
as you see in the plan, with carpets, up
holster)', furniture, and kitchen-furnishing
up-stairs. Since that time gallery after
gallery has been added; and there is
not an inch of room to spare anywhere.
To the surprise of many, it has flourished
while trade was languishing almost
everywhere else.
To us there is no mystery about it;
you think the
bundle it back
nothing surprising even ; unless it be
surprising that so conspicuous a business
should ever be misunderstood. We do
nothing more than simply to provide
facilities for your getting what you want.
We don't mean to say that other
facilities are not provided for distributing
goods; but that's a different thing.
We provide so that you get what you
want, exactly ivhat yon Zi ant In the
first place we've got it. In the second
place we send it. And if we send vou
tne wrong thing, or it
charge is too much, you
to us.
We tell of these things In the news
papers, because there are thousands of
you who don't know what we are
doing; thousands of you don't know the
character of the stock that fills these 5
acres; thousands of you who, therefore,
buy where you pay more money.
We are every merchant's fair and
open competitor. We do not expect to
gather millions of trade from all over
the country without meeting opposition
and misrepresentation. Some will be
lieve whatever is said against us. The
only answer v,-n nudte ii;: Send back
whatever you don't want at the price.
Wc want your trade. Vou want our
goods; or would want them, if you
knew. No matter how far away you
may be ; you will do well to send to
us for some things. We ask you to
write to us about something vou have
present occasion for.
When we get in communication with
you. we shall have one means of winning
your trade, viz., by pleasing you. When
we have won it, wc shall have one means
of keeping it, viz., by dealing with you
as we deal with everybody : giving you
large return for your money, and sup
plying your wants so intelligently that
you will write us for what you want as
naturally as you say "good morning'
to your next-door neighbor.
