For the Blue Hon's Chicken.


To The Jackasss Editors Of The Deiascare Gaset.e.
II find the lash we have applied has set you bray
ing, grammar or no grammar. The Gazette comes
now as it should have done long ago. nth The ed.
tors likeness on its front page, and great many
democrats as well as myself know that the jack.
ass course OF the Gazette has kicked the Demo-
cratic party into defeat twice in this county md i
remains to be learned if il will not stay defeated il
there is not another democratic party started in
Wilmington, or the long cared animals led back
over the Delaware line again. Those Jacks give
as reason for not publishing our bill ailerthe lash
had been applied to them that sent them q notice
for meeting to be held at Backbird, in which
they say some highly respectable members of the
Democratic party were personally, and as they
think very ungentemanly pointed at insulted and
abused for other fault than having attended lem
perance meetings at which resolutions were adop-
ted no, contorrnable with my views. Now all dem
Gratis that do not belong to the Temperance So
ciety mark these words These Jacks say they
are not ruled bya temperance clique and are OPP
posed 10 mixing up the temperance question with
politics, and at the same time publish all conmu-
neatons from those highly respectable Temper
anee Democrats, but when | in the name of my
Democratic friends Of Appoquuimnk Hundred,
after we have been Threatened and insuited by the
Temperance men, ask for the publication Of ahand-
bill, and that to be paid for, those long cared ami
mails get s1llen, and Will not say yes or no, until
we put the Democratic lash of Appo qpinimink
Hundred on them, and they then publish It and
bray out "Sam Townsend this, and Sam Townsend
that" "bad grammar "bad English, and OIL fofts
Of doleful sounds; but bad grammar, OF bad En-
gish, guess the long cared animals can dcciher il
