FOR THE WATERMAN.
To the Farmers aud Landholders.

Before you 90 to the Election request you to
consider for moment how important it is to you
that the Opposition to the present Administration
should be defeated. You well knew what would
be the policy that these men would pursue if they
should get into power. They are opposed to the
Tariff and would immediately repeal or SD modify
it that the consequence would be that the Govern
ment would have to resort to nirpct Tar to raise
revenue. and the ,rloie burden of this Iaa uouid
c'me dorm nth heary hand upon the FdRyIEKS
and LdN'DHOLDERS. | ask you, therefore, to
consider whether it will be best for your interests
contribute the elevation Of the candidate of the
jackson party, and thereby the risk of bringing
tins SO much to be dreaded evil Direct Tax, upon
you, or to give your united support to KENsEY
JOHNS, Junior. man of talents and Irrepr0achable
character land friend to our present worthy Admin

cultural and manufacturing classes. IN every part
Of the policy they adopt. Think Of these things
seriously, my brother farmers. have bestowed a
great deal OF attention upon them, and can per-
ceive in the camor made against Mr.. Adams and
his cabinet, nothing but the cry Of greedy office
hunters, class Of people who ought not to receive
the support Of the ,eomanry Of America. l shall
therefore do all can for the election of Mr..
JOHNS because know him to be worthy of our
confidence and support, and hope you will follow
the example OF AN OLD FARMER.

Two candidates for Congress are now IN nomi.
nation. Mr.. JOHNS, by the Adams party. and
Mr.. BAYARD by the Ja, k-on party. Mr.. Johns
has. we have every reason to believe, been fairly
enough put into nomination; and his pretensions
are modestly and unassumIngly presented. Mr..
Bayard, on the contrary. has been irrcgulary and
unfairly forced upon the people, Look to the
facts Of his nomination; first " the three Law
ycrs' visit Sussex, and get up tremendously large
ssCounty Meetln.'' of eiehtesni at which he is
taken up for Congress This, however, imposing
as il ,ras, would not do; selection must be made
by confprees from each of the three counties, at
dover; meetings are held. conferees appointed and
sent to the Capital, and what was the RESULT Did
they take up Bayard No. for although il was
intended by the Managers that they should thus
confirm his nomination, they had the impudence,
owing chiefly to the daring independence and de-
cision Of one or two individuals. to choose Demo
craft Col. Whitley, as the candidate Of the Jack
SON party. The United States Senator and his
adherents, or, flor the sake of breytv,) !" the Man

totally regardless Of the just claims Of Col hite

take up Bayard. Now, at last, they have got him

But uho i, to elect him? Can they do it. No!

this with ME, or any other good democrat, is
enough for have no idea that such men AS M'Lane

the folks in Washington believe that he is Dictator

BY electing MIR. Bayard we yield tame and
passive submission, and indeed serviLe homage to
M'Lane, with whom we have been saddled long
enough in all conscience! We should therefore
use every exerton in our power to defeat Bayard

Against such tunes aud trucks. { men still
The fatal Christiana meeting Of the 18th inst.
has convinced many an hune>t friend of General
jackson, that the ptsrentt hour men who acted as
managers there, have fallen into the jackson ranks,
not because they think differently Of him from
what they did IN 1894. when they applied to him
every cpithet that vile but because thes flat
Ter themselves the jackson party in this State Is
strongest, and think that by trick and management
they can mould it to their own views, and for their
own ACKNOWLEDGMENT
Who are the managers Louis M'Lane. James
Rodgers, James Black. 4 20. James Rodgers
was an Adams man originally. M'Lsne made
him Crawford man, only few days before the
Legislature appointed electors in 1874 and sent
him and I,ayard to Dover, To influence the mem
beers to vote for Crawford electors. Alto Adams's
election, he was an Adams man az ain: but as soon
as M'Lane found that MIR. Adams would give him
no appointment, he turned Rodgers over to Jack
son.
Mr.. Black, at the late meeting at Chrstiana
requested democrat to urge the proprIety OF ia
king up James Rodgers, Attorney General, to re-
present Red Lion hundred in the Legislature Of
this State, saying "you had better agree to it. as
the Jackson Federalists are determined to take
any man of the county to represent any hundred
in it they please. You had better come into the
measure. for they will do it." The reply to this
sage advice was: +" If you do, will not support
the ticket; as, to take man not resident III the
hundred, to represent it, is different from the
course heretofore pursued" This demucrat now
says that his eyes are opened to the whole scheme
and that he will vote the Adams ticket. IT you
want more information on this matter, inquire IN
Re-, Lion hundred any one there will tell more
about it.
Bayard, the presen. candidate, is another of this
firm. In 1924 he said at New Castle that JACK
SON acas ga DID OLD CUrTHROAT." Since
chen he salt, in the town. that he was not only
opposed to the present administration, but that II
Jackson were elected he should oppose his. None
of the acts of Gen. Jackson which led him to be-
ieve that he was cut throat" in 1924, have
been undone none of them needed any explanation
70 men as conversant with public affairs as a man
ought to be, who pretends to be fit for Represen-
satise in Congress. He cannot therefore have
changed hin opinion Of Gen. jackson. Why then,
does he wish to elevate :" cut throat" to the Pre-
sidencyp
Because. first, M'Lane has wiIled it.
Because, seuond, he expects to be wheeled into
Congress over Jackson's shoulders. This wont do.
Mr.. Bayard. Neither your fathers virtues, nor
Jackson's merits, will send you to Congress until
you display some Of your own. advise you to
initiate them both. Your father was matchess

KENSEY JOHNS, JUNIOR,

Has been selected BY the Administration Party
in the State Of Delaware for their Candidate for
Representative to Congress. His prospects Of
success are very encouraging. He has every
thing to recommend him for the important station,
and his most active opponents can find no accusa-
tion against him except that he is friend to the
Administration. We call upon the lovers Of good
order; the friends to the best system of govern.
ment upon the face of the globe, and which is
wisely and impartalls administered by the emi
nent patriots at the helm Of State, to be up and
doing. The, have opponents to contend with,
who will leave no stone unturncd in their efforts
to "put down" the Administration.

the Administration men be on their guard-and
let those who are SO unprincipled as to practice
deception in the manner alluded to, be held up to
