Much besides travelling is required OF a Cover
MORGAN you, Mr.. Harker indeed, think us sim
pie enough to believe that body too imbecle to bear
ride Of Sicty miles tacice gear will not sink un
der the ardnous and mutilarious duties of chief
magistrate Of this state? Think you that we have
not yet learned the humbng lesson TO human pride,
that intellect cannot be bright and vigorous even
when the frame is slightly deranged much less
when its fragile tenement worn by the and tolls
OF seventy Winters is Wondering ruin around it?
A fit OF the ague made the Roman Dictator whine
likea pulling girl Further says this Incompatible
advocate, " This circumstance that the Governor
Will not have to travel much, connected with others
favorable to his health warrants us in concluding
that lie will find no difficulty in attending to all the
duties of the Office" What these other circum-
stances are, we somewhat at loss to divine, I'M
less they be that large fortune accumulated by the
salaries OF lucrative Offices enables the Judge to keep
carriage, and that OF late he has frequently exhibit
ed himself in this vehicle in every street in Will
mington. "But' proceeds Mr.. Harker, " even if
Mr.. Booth is unable to discharge his duties as Gov
ernor, he could depend on his Secretary of State"
This indeed is too absurd. Upon this principle our
votes might be asked for any old ,coman in the
state--if we objected that she was rheumatic, or
equity, or paraytc dOting, all difficulty will be
obviated by telling US she ,oiH hare Secretary II
Mr. Booths Secretary of State to do the duties OF
Chief Magistrate, not my fellow citizens, but Mr..
Booth will make the Governor.

FOR THE WATERMAN.
a feec reasons achy Judge Booth ought not to be
GOTERROR

He has held nine OF the most lucrative Offices in
the state from which he has received at least sixty
thousand dollars His son in law is the Attorney
General, which Office he has held for seven years,
worth seven hundred dollars per annum- four thou
sand nine hundred dollars Joseph Roberts who
marriedth the Judges niece, held at one time the Office
of Clerk of the Peace, Register in chancery and
Prothonatory, which netted him at least two thou
sand dollars year--ten thousand dollars. Roberts
now holds the Office Of Prothonotary and will be re-
appointed for FIVE years longer il Judge Booth is
elected The Judge, his son in law and nephew to-
gether, have received out Of the public purse the
round sum of seventy four thousand nine hundred
dollars These, fellow citizens are a few OF the
many reason why you ought to oppose the election
OF Judge Booth but in my mind they are small
IN comparison of the few others which shall sub
nit. Judge Booth during the Revolutionary WGr
took sides with the enemy Of our Country; fot this,
after lapse of so many years charity might throw
her mantle but what has the Judge been and done
since? On all occasions he has been the acarm
friend OF our deadly foe Great Britain. He just-
fed the impressment OF our brave tars-he advoca-
ted the obnoxious orders in Council which struck
at the vtals of .4lnerican Commerce--he censured,
even abused the General Government for earring
against Great Britain in defence of our honor Z
our most sacred rights. This war he pronounced
unjust and cruel He identified himself with the
friends to the Ha tford Conventional set of factious
Jacobns whose express object was to war against
the constitution OF our Common Country and who
were ready to unsheath the sword against any body
else than the enemy. He palliated if not justified
he Conflagration of our Cities and Towns, the in
dignties offered our innocent and helpless females
and the encrueltes and outrages committed on our
prisoners by the enemy during the late war. lfthese
are not sufficient reasons why Judge Booth should
not be Commander in Chief of our State, | will at
once admit that the Judge ought to be voted for.
