EOMMUNIcAP

lo the Democratic Delegates appointed TO meet al
the Red Lion on the 18th Of September:
! FELLOW cITIzENs-There is one consideration
which It is important for you to bear in mind and
hat 49, that yoa do not nominate any person for the
legislature, Who is in fauor of
w. H. CRAWFORD for President.
| There is no doubt in my mind, but nine .enths
OF the People OF this state opposed to Crawford
for President; and yet unless you turn your atten-
ZION particularly to this subject, he may obtain the
vote OF the state. He has his nrguers here as well
as IN New York; and it is not at all impossible, I'M
less yoa are particularly on your guard, that they
may succeed in cheating the people of this state OF
their rights as they have done in New York. though
by different means. 1t is understood, that the friends
OF Crawford 10 Kent and Sussex were particularly
instructed to attend his interests in the formation
OF the Legislative tickets to be supported at the next
election. while those opposed to him were not aware
OF the intrigue, and quietly submitted to the nomi
nation OF some Crawiotdites, without any suspicion
o. their sentiments this lect of the reasons
why they were nominated. Do not permit yourselves
likewise to be caught mapping. Il is in your power,
and you ought TO determine, that no friend Of Wlt
Tam III. CraWtord shall go upon the legislative tck
f. Ii you permit one two Crawordtes to get
upon the ticket he may obtain the vote Of Delaware
notwithstanding the immense majority we know
lhere is IN the state, against him
You are to consider that you are really voting for
President and as It IS well known that nine tenths
OF you are opposed 10 Crawford, it would be proper
to meet the question at once, by resolving that no
friend TO The caucus candidate will be supported by
you tor the legislature, You should then, vote down
every man, who is proposed for your choice, that is
suspected Of the least faint of Crawfordism. Ad-
here steadily to this determination. DO not be de-
TERED from it by the clamors uproar of any Of
the caucus gentry, who may peradventure be among
you Ion knoao the sense Of the people Of this coan
try, and h.t they WiH support gnu IN any measures
you may adoW to prpserre the state from The Craze
tord taction. ! am not particularly conyersant with
he regulations the Red Lion but il it be necessa
ry to adopt new regulations to meet the case, do
not shrink from it. Let your motto be. as already
IS that OF the people Of Newcastle County
ANY OF THE CANDIDATES BUT CRAWFORD.

The I.or.!ou Morning Chronicle Of the 9TH June,
makes the following remarks upon our new Tariff
which has been published in that paper IN etrten-
so -
ssWe refer our readers to the United States Tariff
Bill in another column, which will produce great
sensation in oar manufacturing towns. The enor
NOUS duties on all our Staple manufactures, will no
doubt, give rise to smuggling on a most extended
scale from Canada and the West Indies, but while
the most demoralisng effects will be seen in Anne
RIGA, we fear the effects IN England will be OF very
distressing nature. We owe this measure chiefly
to the cupidity of our Country gentlemen who by
excluding their produce from our markets. impel
all the agricultural nations to become manufacturers
for themselves. Thus our poor unfortunate work
men, one Market being shut alter another, are forced
TO toll for less and less every day --weavers Tor IA
or 5 hours day receiving from seven to ten shil-
iings week. while the Corn Law compeis them to
pay twice as much for their food as is paid by the
people Of every other country"

From The Neao Haren Register.

Most of the northern Crawford papers have with
in few weeks published short article kind
Of political and religious LABEL designating the chris
tian denominations to which several distinguished
men in the nation ave attached. The article pur-
ported TO be from the Columbian Star, religious
publication, conducted by gentlemen OF the Baptist
Church, which article denominated Mr.. Crawford
Baptist. We thought it little singular that the
Star should engage in this political artlfce: for It
was well known The nation that so tar from Mr..
Crawtord'S being a BAPTIST he had TWICE en-
gagged IN bloody rites and belonged TO The sect cal
led DUELLISTS 1t appears by the following
that the article did not originate in the Star, but was
started by some of Mr.. Crawlord's warm partzans,
who had more zeal than wisdom. We predict that
very lew if any of the Crawford papers will do jus.
lice to the Star, by CORRECTING the error.

Mr. .9dams.-As to supporting Mr.. Adams, (says
the n. Y. Commercial Advertiser,) we hope those
who give him their support, have sense enough to
found their favor upon the merits OF his character
his virtue, his talents, his love of country, and his
experience. 80 One thing we shall take good care
of, (and doubt not readers will do the same
in giving our support TO any particular Presidential
candidates and that is, TO know and be sure that he
has done no" murder" MIR. Adams fights no
duels.

How ridiculous Sammy liarker renders himself to the

should be elected President Sammy talks about prefer
ring Crawford for the Presdencybut this is all wind

ter General of the United States, &c &C. under Craw

i'll vanish like the early dew. And we have good rea
for thinking sofor the people have determined
that King Caucus shall be their President After
