,hen 40 matter which, the following facts will
believe as clearly prove, that the sun shines al
midday.
1t must be carried in recollection, what efforts
have been made to elect one Of the FaniLy to which
the federaliss gave their support for The last three
years. When Mr.. Rodney was elected, his election
was opposed by the Federalists, and the present
member OF Congress belonging to the same Family,
was tried against Mr.. Rodney, and the Democratic
Senator, from BrandywIne Hundred, MIR. Victor
Dupont, endeayoured, but in vain to bring over
some of the members from Newcastle county, 10
join him, in supporting The member of Congress
against Mr.. Rodney. Thus the embryo seeds CT
the late events at Dover were then sown.
AT the last session, when il was found the mem
Der of Congress- ,couM not go d0,cn, a candidate
from the same Family was selected, who it was
known beforehand, would meet The support of
Charles Thomas, because his sister was married TO
this candidates second son; and thus the Uft0te
Family interest combined to carry The iayorite
point, 1t possible, that the Family might be agran
died and arisocratica dom nation raised,
which the people would find they could not alter.
wards put down. if they would and for this praise
worthy purpose, Charles Thomas was made pres-
dent OF the Senate, that if the votes were equal,
which IT was foreseen would be likely to happen,
he might have the casting vote.
Mr.. Thomas being thus added to Mr.. Victor
Dupont, the same attempt that had been made he
preceding session to corrupt one of the members
from Newcastle county, was again practised, with
better success-for Andrew Reynolds Joined the
Federasts, and then, the three in conjunction with
the Federal members, attempted to force upon the
Democrats the most Objectionable and most anpop-
atar man OF the Family, save and except the col
lector for the Port OF Wilmington; and so certain
were they of success, that Mr. Victor Dupont de-
lclared, He held in his possession the keys Of the
state OF Delaware"
Thus, fellow citizens, has your confidence been
betrayed and abused by three OF your servants, in
whom you thought, you had faithful and upright
represenatiyes-and one Family has sought, by all
and any means, 10 seize and grasp power, at the
sacrifice of your dearest rights and interests by the
aid of Federal help. If the Federalists are no,
therefore to blame, that there is no Senator from
Delaware in the Senate of the U S. don't know
who is. BY intrigue and treason they carried this
point lido you, therefore, fellow citizens, shew
them, at the polls, that you can and aoit scatter
this intrigue and this treason like chat before the
wind. CALM OBSERVER.

Alter religious service Of praise prayer and OK
hortatlon by the Revd. MIR. ALLEN, coloured
preacher from Philadelphia, and the Revd. Mr..
GuRLEY, DR.. AYREs addressed the emigrants and
exhibited to their view the difficulties and dangers
they would probably have to encounter, and the
deprvations they might suffer; assured them that
they were at liberty to withdraw if they pleased and
If they had any inclination to remain in this country
he enreated they would then retire. He made
many judiclous observations on the necessity OF
harmony and good conduct in every respect, and
obedience to the authority set over hem-lI spoke
OF the great exerons made in their behalf, and the
expectations oil their friends here of the success and
prosperity OF the colony resulting from their good
conduct. The oath OF allegiance was then admin
lstered by Peter Calf, Esq. to about 25 men. 1t
was an interesting and impressive scene.
The passengers in the brig amount to sixty three
men, women and children (all in good health)-as
respectable as any coloured people in this country.
Many of them are well educated and all of them
very intelligent Among them is a late slave of
DANIEL MURRAY, Esq. whose master not only
gave him liberty, but furnished him with supplies
to aid him in the new settlement. There are good
grounds TO be confident that MIR. Murray's exam
pie will be followed by many as soon as the colony
becomes more settled and in more prosperous con
dItlon. Yesterday morning the brig lying out in
the stream was visited by an immense number Of
persons, and large crowd was on the wharves TO
see her departure. She takes out an uncommonly
intelligent colored man OF considerable talents and
good judgment. He has travelled eighteen years
through various parts Of Asia-has been in most
parts of the countries OF Europe and South America,
and now visits Africa TO explore The River Mesurado
and ascertain its proximity TO the Niger. His name
Il is ABEL HERD; he is native of Frederick county

with the appreciation Of the American Colonization
Society, to open trade with Liberia and the neigh.
