sert the following letter, merely promising that
we are glad to hear the gentleman say that if
the Prohibitory Liquor Bill becomcsa law, there
is no one who will exert himself more faithfully
to carry out its strict observance; but, at the
same time, we must be permitted to say that
the remarks made under the caption of ." Bar.
gain and Sale," in our last issue, our informant
(who is reliable) says, is not only su6stantialIa
but nearly verbally correct, as he was present
and heard and saw all that occurred at the
time, and for the truth of the matter, he refers
to those members who were in the Housewives

As to our misrepresenting the Doctor, or an
other gentleman, we most emphatically repl

nothing was farther from our intention. w

and, as such. we disposed of the remarks of Il

Dover, Feb. Goth, 1855.
Mr.. DditOr In looking over the Smyrna
Times" Of last week, see a charge reiterated
in several places of that issue against me,
which feel compelled to ask you to allow me,
through your columns, to contradict.
l am charged, for instance, with having said
in the House of Representatives, that was
bargained for and sold previous to my eloction.
to oppose Prohibitory Liquor Law. Now,
venture to say, that not an individual in the
House at the time referred to, understood me
to say any other than that " it was an under
standing with my constituents that was Op-
posed to any Legislative enactments on thai
subject and that felt as much bound by thai
understanding as | could be by contract OF
bargain Of any kind
When Mr.. Mckee proposed to exhibit tn,
petitions, | did not, as is stated, object to il
and the remark that " that world be argument,
was said in a jOcular manner, and intende,
more as compliment than otherwise and tina
gentleman SO considered it,
My opposition to the Prohibitorv Law ha
not been OF that violent or viudictive characte
which the articles in the " Times" imply, bu
) only such as | felt bound to make from sens
OF duty to my constituents. And regret tina
1t should be the pleasure of an editor or corre
pondent to misreprescnt me.
will further say, that although have sa
nothing which would not again say, if nece
sary, to oppose the bill, yet it it become a la

r faithfully, to carry out its strict observanc
than myself

A SELL.-We learn from the Ledger that
during the past week, an individual, styling
himself Edward or Daniel Cummins, and at
times one of the firm of Cummins g. Brother
of Smyrna. Delaware, created quite a stir
among the Philadelphia storekespers by ma
king selections of goods for shipment to
Smyrna, on board vessel called the Two
Brothers Bills to large amount were pur-
chased, the dealers, in some instances, pur-
chasing from others the quantity quality of
goods desired. At one store $500 worth Of
furniture was packed up ready for shipment
fire-proof of the Herring Patent was sci
aside by Messrs. Farrell g. Co., and Messrs
Weaver g. Volkmar thought they had made
sale of furnace. In no case was any money
paid, nor does the purchaser appear to have
derived any profit from his various acts of de-
ceit. The vessel by which the articles were
to be shipped is not to be found, and it is sup
posed that the purchaser has monomana 70
heavy transactions At any rate the partle
have the consolation of not having met will
any pecunary loss.
This gentleman of heavy contracts does no
belong to Smyrna, and, we believe, she has n

DOVER, Feb. 25th, 1853
Mr.. Editor Having few leisure moments
| will give you brief transcript of the passing
events about the Capital.
During the latter part of last week, consid-
erable excitement was manifested about the
Hotels here, in consequence OF the passage of
the Temperance Bill by the House of Repre-
sentatives. Some, on the occasion, got " glo-
rl3usly drunk" and were disposed to make " a
noise in the world" :" while others-especially
those from the rural districts-talked strongly
of shoHlderng the "musket." But the storm
has abated considerably since Tuesday last.
The Railroad question is still unsettled. Il
has many able advocates as well as opponents
| am unable to form an opinion in regard to the
final result. There has been a large number o
I" lobby members" here from Sussex county
urging it's passage.
The bill for changing the system of common
schools, was taken up in the Senate this after
noon, and was lost on the first section. Ayes
Messrs. Armstrong, Biggs and Dupont. Nay
-Messrs. Curry. Harrington, Hazard, Ponde
and Pusey. No other bills of importance hav
been taken up to-day. Yours, &c,
