Our laws have wisely enacted, that whenever.

Jury. renders himself guilty Of a yiolatian OF the

The body was discovered near the mouth 0f Oak

"THE MANUFACTURERS. Y

Under this title, an article, apparrnt1
editorial, appeared in the Delaware Ga
zette OF the 9Th inst. which did not meet
our observation till lately, and which il
deserving OF passing notice.
The supposition, that the manufactur
ers have attempted to control the votes d
those in their employment, by threats Of
(compulsion, is one which they are reads
to meet in any shape, whether of accuse
ton or insinnation. They deny it fatty,

llshments on the Brandywine, exercise
their civil privileges as independently as
any class of people in this country ID
say the contrary, is an insult to them, d..
well as to their employers.
The writer of the elaborate address IN
the Gazette, inquiries into the motives Of
the manufacturers for their conduct at tie
late election. and very much doubts whctl-
er they can assign for it d reason satisfae
tory TO themselves These reasons are
sufficiently plain. They are TO be found
IN the conduct pursued by the leaders Of
the opposition in this State--in the shame
full attempt to pervert TO political purposes

dustry, held in Wilmington, in July last;
ana that, after it had been previously un-
derstood and agreed, that politics should
not be mingled in any shape with the great
national interests which were the special
OBJECTS OF the meeting :--in the tender fec
ling expressed at that meeting, by the lea
ders OF the Jackson party, for the cclcbra-

That youthful, yet are-furrowed, cold, pale
Where Faith had left her impress pure and meek,
And Hope the image other final vow
For taught by years of sorrow and of pain,
The Bard had learned that time is but dream,
That All the ties of earth are fra and VAIN
