Theseasonof unexampled depression in
all the business interests of the country has
not been Witbeut its effect in checking Jhe
growth of our city. Builders early noted
the nneotv ffflimr rfmnntr !nnnta nnnan-
the uneasy feeling flftnonir tenants conse
quent upon the reduction of force in some
manufacturing establishments and rumors
of further reductions,, and, - anticipating a
scarcity of tenants at the lime of the next
year's renting, prudently determined to re
duce the extent of their operations. Had
this been theonly influence at work to at
feet this branch of' business, the 'result
nuu&u iiuuniiij uaic uccu iuq aituuon w
tire suspension of building in Wilmington,
but like depressing' influences were affect
ing other branches of trade.
Early in the year the owners of saw-mills
here foud that returns for lumber sold at
the Ncrth were becoming very unsatiBfac
tory, and, owing to tbe great reduction or
building operations iu that section, a time
finally came when the result ot shipments
of lumber on the market of Baltimore and
other Northern cities netted scarcely .any-
thing to the manufacturers here-over the
cost or production, and, in some cases mat
we know of, account sales was accompa
nied with a request that the manufacturer
remit a balance due the commission mer
chant for wharfage, lighterage, inspection.
commissions, etc., in excess of the amount
realized by sale of the lumber.
Of course
such a state of the market led manufactur
ers to reduce production and ship only bill
stuff, and as bills have of late been only
about as frequent as angels visits and the
foreign demand is light, important reduc
tions in prices of lumber and efforts on the
part of the mill men to encourage home
consumption have resulted.
.Last month and the present arc naturally
our dull season of the year, many of our
most enterprising citizens being away on
their summer trips of business or pleasure,
but by September we shall beguTtolook
for their return, and with it, in view of the
prevailing low price of labor, lumber and
brick, and most other articles of consump
tion in housebuilding, the addition to our
population as a result of the successful es-
tablishement and operation of the Cotton
Mill, and the generally more cheerful feel-
ing in business circles as a result of the
news of the past few days, we "look for
a gradual and healthy, revival of the build
ing interest of our city. Already, from the
number of new buildings we notice erect-
ng in our rambles about town, it would
seem that the influences we have mention
ed must be beginning to Uke effect.
We give below brief notices of the prin.
cipal wbrk8 now in progress,some of which,
however, wc have mentioned in former is
sues:
The new press and cotton shed of the
Wilmington Cotton Compress Company,
located on the late site of Bowdeo's still
yard, is progressing rnpidly to completion.
and a" pile-driver is at work ' on the exten
sion of the wharf. The boilers are already
in position, and the boiler-house; of brick
enclosed on three sides. The press itself is.
to be covered by a frame building, of
which the timbers are standing, and the
foundation of the press is completed and
the Jgreat cylinder of 72 inches diameter
was being mounted to its position on the
occasion of our visit. A large force of
workmen were engaged on the long brick
walls of the cotton-shed. The press, we
understand, will compress one-half more
bales than the old one' and deliver them'of
only about three-fourths the size, thus se
curing a great economy of time and of
stowage 'space on ' board ship. It is in
tended, . that f vessels - of deep draft
shall have water sufficient to 'enable
them to i load at the wharves
without the extra expense of lighterage! It
is estimated that the press will be in work
ing order in five or six .weeks, when Wil
mington will have facilities for ..the recep
tion, storage, compression and shipment of
cotton greater than ever before, and with
an economy certainly as ereat as at any
other Atlantic port. The Crolina Central
Railway runs over the front of the premises.

A Monster of tne Deep.
We learn that quite an excitement oc
curred on board the Revenue Cutter W. IT.
Crauford on Thursday last,; while lying at
anchor off Smith ville, occasioned by the
capture of two of those little artful fellows
called sharks. One measured eleven feet
and eight inches in length and five feet
and eight inches in circumference, being a
regular "monster of the deep." The other
was over seven feet in length. His shark
ship No. 1 contested every inch of ground
(water), and not until the officers emptied
the contents of their revolvers into his head
did he condescend to surrrendi-r. ,
The appearance of these ''little artful
fellows,'! who do not care a cent who t they
