acknowledgements Due.-One of the most unex
pected and astounding occurrences to few of the
Opposition men in Delaware, is the establishment of
this Journal. Their prophecies respecting the pat
ronage it would obtain, were most kindly made
without the least charge; and the fu6ment Of them
resembles, very much, the fulhlment Of their pres
dental predictions in 1924 Their attempts made
in different places to prevent subscriptions, deserve
great commentator; but as am not anxious for a
brush with any man-more especially on account of
trife-I shall not now narrate theparticulars l.,
therefore, return my sincere thanks to all my friends
for their labours of love on the present occasion,
and hope that they will not be offended while
omit, for the present, more particular specifca-
ton.
But acknowledge that there seemed to be some
just grounds for dissatisfaction, the part of my
particular friends, when it was discovered that the
most respectable people, in every post, station and
condition in life throughout this state, thought prop
er to patronze this paper. All candid men-I think
will admit that the fault was not mine and
therefore hope that may be permitted, peaceably
and quietly, to edit paper more agreeable to their
views, and somewhat more consonant with fact, ar
gument, and decency, than what appears visible in
some Of our public prints. The Romans had saying,
De gustibus not est disputandam-which, am
told, means that different people have different
tastes. Now, if that be the fact, it appears to me
quite as cruel to insist upon mans taking certain
newspaper and swallowing all its fa!sehoods. mis-
statements, and trash, as to make Jew-the grand
Judge of Israel for instance-to eat pork whether
he would or not.

were severaly read and unanimously adopted.
Resolved, That we highly commend and most
heartily approve of the present Administration.
Resolued, That, should the Administration pro-
coed as it commenced and has continued, John Q.
Adams, SO eminently calculated and qualified, in
all respects to perform the duties of his present ell
evated and responsible station, shall, at the next
election, receive our undivided support.
Resolued, That we have full confidence in the in
tegrity and talents of the President; that we be-
leve him to be devoted to the welfare, prosperity,
and glory of the nation and that he was fairly and
consttutionally elected.
Resolued, That we disapprove of the hateful prac-
tice, so much in vogue, Of vllifying and abusing
either Adams or Jackson and that the only fair
means of enabling the community to form AUST and
correct preferences to contrast virtue with virtue
to oppose talents to talents-and that thus. with
out doubt, they will unite in the reelection of
John Q. Adams.
