Established Oct. 18, 1851 mm path) Jlrflua OFFICIAL CITY & COUNTY PAPER VERT LATEST BY TELEGRAPH. Dr. T. XX. Schcnck. Oo our trip, to and from the Eaat we never fail of spending a few daj in that old and well regulated city of Philadelphia where liberty first found light in old lode' pendenoe Hall. Neither do we miss of call mg upon Dr. J II. Sohenck, who is well re membered by more newspaper men tfcau any other man in the United Statu. Lr. Schenck hat been eminently suecesstu!, aud is probably more favorably known than any man iu Philadelphia. By .hi. indomitable enterprise he has added ad much to the wealth and mercantile reputation of Phila delphia as he has to bis own weakh. n . i . . . lurjugnout tne entire country hie came ia JZ O a teinil:nr title, and bears with it everywhere a re.pect equal to that accorded to any. By Lis acquaintances Dr. Sohenck is known to ba a man of strict probity, who has riaeu to his present eminenoe without a stain upon his character. In the accumulation of his fortune he has not been neglectful of those less favored, and his unostentatious charily ba. relieved many a burden, and assisted to euoces. not a few who needed but such a helping hand to make their own way even tually, lie is now building a magnificent buaiuesi block which for architectural beauty aud perfection of design is not surpassed in tue United States. The Davenport Deao- crat, believes in Dr. Schenok, and takes au unlimited amount of stock in all that the ujator does, says as fjllows of this buiid- TEN YEAU.S. la the old country the career of mercan vue nouses from poverty to affluence, from ia dingy little ornce to the immense com worjiai palace, is reckoned by centuries. auJ to detail their history would be to give 10.1 memoirs of succeeding generations, u;,uu without respite to accomplish popu larity aud wealth. In this country there are luituncB of the same result in comparative ly a marvelous short period ol time, but the luj-tt surprising instance Is where, from t&a merest germ in the form of capital, au immanse fortune, enormous trade and universal popularity are accomplished in ten years. This is a lesson which teaches tue poor but enterprising young man on en teriu hit business career "not to despise the day of small things." It was no longer ao tnan IsoU when Dr. J. a ochenck, col looted together all his available capital, wmub was not large euourh to cause him uuca auxiety or eioite the cupidity or envy ul'the world iu general, aud in a dingy and cjuuqkJ ulliSe, among the rag and paper warnhouses, with their old fashioned fronts aud pauas, commenced the sales of the Sea VVe jJ 'f ouio, the Pulmonic Svrup and the .MiaJruit) Pills, which have sinoe become a staple article with every druggist throughout America. There were, however, one or two little requisites which rise superior to mere casn capital, ana which generally prove more potent tain wealth in securing the success of m commercial enterprise. These are determination, application and a genu ins stock in trade. Ihe begianer had no miscalculated, and in choosing his location tnoub. small and unpretending, was not mistaken ; a tew years later and we find him io a business block on Sixth and Com-in-irco known as the emporium of nis now world known remedies. On visiting the city of Brotherly Love a third time we find tiie irrepressible Doctor a.'ain preparing to chigoe hin quarters to another building oo Sixth end Arch, eclipsing all that had gone before. The broad and deep foundation hai buou laid, and its walls, destined to tow er above all others on that prominent and leling thoroughfare, were slowly and mjsiically oreeping np, and when it has secured its finishing touch, full a quarter of a million dollars will have been exhausted. We have reooived a lare and beautiful photograph of this magnificent fitructuie, which might be exhibited as one of the dn)9t efforts of street architecture in Amer u.i Hising in romantio beauty for five .'.tines, it supports a Mansard roof, pierced wUh many windows, and above this are grtv.ful turrets, and a towering dome, re minding the traveler of one of the palatial buildinjrs of Paris, Elegant ratlines sur mount the towers, and the American flag uiatj grandly over all. Arohed windows, 'rh of a single plate, give a light and airy i-!i'7nce to the ground ttoor. while mulUoned an t arohn liphta give imposing grandeur to the superstructure. An appropriate statue on marble pedestal occupies the center of llii plinth, the cupola being niched to rm;eive it. We have submitted it to some of our moat prominent architects and build nrt who are unanimous in their commenda tions, and this view of the "Schenck Build ing" will be one of the oraments npon the walls of the office of thejDacettporf Democrat a the ultimate result of ten yers' commer c.1 aptitude excellently applied.
