A CHALLENaK-W VINO BACKS OUT - VIM u. White
ly sent a challenge 10 Hon Elisha d. Cullen,
a few days ago, to meet him in this county,
and discuss the Principles Of ;he American , nns
that he was engaged in Sussex county, and he
therefore claimed the right as the .chalehgedparty
10 name the place Of meeting, and suggested Pep.
pers woods ia Sussex, where the Americans had
already called meeting fer the Saturday prior to
the election, and the psinocIats had ayertisea one
TO be held at Lipley's woods on the same day, not
over quarter Of mile distant. Mr.. WHITLEY de-
cines aceeiing to this reasonable request, and the
Gazette calls il back out on the part OF Mr. Call
len. This is another proof Of the easy way our co..
temporary has Of getting out Of difficulties and we
should not be surprised II he should make the at
tempt in his next paper to prove that black is white
or that the sun does not shine in the daytime. Mr..
Cullen does not decline the discussion, but only ex-
ercises his right the challenged party, to fix the
place of meeting and Mr., whitley declines to ac'
cede 10 it 10 other words backs out. Our read
ers can judge If this Is not legitimate conclusion
| In the discussion at Bridgeville, Mr. Whiteley
or his friends acted US though II were not safe 10
| listen tG the argum ent of Mr. Cullen, as when MIR
w.. concluded his speech, the locofocos, with few
exceptions, at the tap VI the DRUM withdrew frsm
the meeting, without waiting to hear the reply OF
Mr.. @ Mr.. Whiteley stateb that he did not know
that the Demecrats left the meeting at Biidgevile
whom he ceased speaking" II he had remained
himself we think he would have been aware Of the
fact but this withdrawal looks very much like afear
of his opponent though he and his friends may not
| Ike such admission. The yictoIs always retain
the field till he proper time to march the yanqush.
ed leave it at the earliest possible mompnt glad
to ESQ ipo 10 season or out of season.

DECLlNED.-We understand that when Hon. Jas
A. BLyard, was addressing II meeting in Sussex
county, he made some allusion derosatory to the
political character of Hon. Caleb s. Layton. Mr.
l. being informed of this wrote to Mr. b. asking
him to name time for joint meeting 10 the city u
Wilmington, where no tNr. L might defend him
self and a. the same tilno iscnss the platform oil
principles which tho Democrats party had laid
duwn. Mr.. however, wrote an apologetic rep
declining 10 meet NJ L., thus shrinking rom a CON
test which would have boon highly edifying and in
structye to our people, and implicitly admitting that
be feared the result.
