Bosi ness men are branching oat and are get ting out of the old grooves they have been trudging in for many years past. Mr. Jcs. B. Worth has established a steam laundry in the building next adjoining his present Htore. The engine used' in his pea out business will furbish steam and power f -r tbe laundry. Iu order to make the enterprise a complete success, Mr, Worth hb 6ent North and has brongbt out improved macmnery and nas em ployed skilled lab-r. The foreman f his lauudry has beeu for seven years past foreman of one of the most exteurlre Una dries in New York City. The stationary wash and steam tubs, ironer and starcher are In position and ready fer use. Th drying room Is about 10x12 feet and will be sufficiently heated to dry clothes in from one to two hours. All that is now wauting to complete the establishment are the hot and cold water, steam and gas pipes, and loroa pump. The pipes are being laid today and the lorce pump Is expected to arrive to-day or to-morrow. A large water tank of twenty-five barrel capacity has been erected and also, two smaller ones, through which tbe water will pass and be thoroughly filtered before it Is turned into the tubs. Mr. Worth s help has arrived and they are busily engaged in getting everything in readiness. We caw the machinsry used in the 'establish ment in motion this morning. The en terprise, we doubt not, will be apprscl ated by the public and will supply i need felt in any city of tho 'size of Wil mington. In the Fall Mr. Worth will embark in the manufacture of shirts, col lars and cuffs. . " I Plows, . Shovels, Pitchforks. 1 Snades. Rakes' Trace Chains, Plow Lines, &c.

One pleasing though sad incident of the battle of Williamsburg on tbe pe. ninsular, in i May, 18C2, has just come to our knowledge, and we think it worth relating here. The battle had been fought and lost to our side, and many of the dead and wounded left upon the fieldi Among the former was Captain Snow, tit Halifax, in this State, and among the latter Captain Henry Mullins, from Fayetteville, both heroic members ef tbe gallant Fifth i N. C. regiment. Captain Snow's brilliant conduct was noticed by the enemy, and his dead body was found almost within ten yards of the redoubt he was charging, while Captain Mullins fell mortally wounded in nearly the same locality. Three days later Col. D. K. McRae, the commander of the Fifth N. C, received by flag of trupe from General Hancock, who commanded the opposing forces, a letter, with two others eu closed, one of which was written to the mother, of the brave soldier Snow, by Hancock himse!f,commending the aoble and heroic conduct ef her son on the bat tle field; tbe other was directed to the mother of Captain Mullins, and contain ed the last! words of her dying . son, which that chivalrous foeman, the illus trious Hancock, conveyed in these words over his own signature, 'tell my mother I died a true soldier and a gentleman.' These facts have been given to us by Ooh McRae, and that gentleman has further informed us that he had positive informa tion that' on the night succeeding the day of the battle, which was a bleak, dreary, rainy and stormy night, that General Hancock pereonally supervised tbe remo val of and attention to the wounded pris oners. And now maybe these Kads think the survivors ot the Fifth North Carolina 'ain't a going' to vote for Hancock. Wei1, all we have to say upon t ha subject is just let them keep on thinking so, and wait until the sun goes down on i the 2d day of November next, and maybe then they 11 think, when the result is known, that not only tbe Fifth N. C , but a good many other 'old Rsbe' besides, voted to put this illustrious and humane soldier in the p ace that was once filled by the father of his country; and so mote it be, say we Them's oar sentiments, and, we are the strongest sort of a double-dyedin-tht-wool 'old Rb at that.

Here is something more about the pro spective fast mail. The New York Bulle tin states that tbe arrangements for a fast mail from New York to New Orleans and the Southern seaboard and gulf cities, will not be completed until some time in Oc tober. , Unlike the North, where negotia tions for a thousand or fifteen hundred miles of route may be made with a single individual, many interests must be cori suited in the South, When the arrrnge ment is completed trains leaving New Yoik at 4:35 a, ro., will reach Washington not later than 11 a. m. Mails will reach Jack sonville in less than thirty-six hours from New York, and one day will be saved on the present schedule to New Orleans. DIED.
