INDIANA FLEcTIoN.-The election for members Of
Congress and the Legislature, &C., took place on
Tuesday, and was closely contested. 1t is thought,
however, that the Republicans have carried the

TROUBLE IN THR CAMP-We understa nd that there
was considerable excitement and i'll feeling In the
Convention, which met at Delaware City, last Sat.
urday. Appoquinimink and ohristiana had each
two sets of delegates present. and in order to get rid
Of the iculy Of deciding between them, they were
all admitted to seats, and equal voices in the seec.
tion Of candidates. This led TO some objections and
determinations, and the leader of the party, in this
county cooly informed those present that they must
respect the wishes of the citizens of
Hundred If they expected their support at the polls
His opponents cried out against this denounced it
as treason to the party, and ended by informing Mr.
Townsend that they could elect their ucket in thi:
county, without him and his hundred. This at any
rate ia the report in our city, and we have heard
moro than one Bushananites in this city say that Mr.
T. should be turned out Of the party as they could
get along better without him than with him. This
Is the spirit manifested towards Mr.. Il. and we are
not surprised that he resenS ii and soornfully dees
the opposition. In another column We insert his
manifesto, from which 1t will be seen that he will
not submit to bow his neck to elevate intriguing and
selfish politicians to places of homer and PR it, what.
over others may do. He advises that County
meeting be called to meet at St. Georges ut an early
day, when each Hundred should be requested to nom
inac their candidates by ballot the only Democrat
10 way We may remark, in this connection, tha
call has been issued requesting tho Democrats o
Chrstiana Hundred, to meet at Feming's hotel this
Fhursday) evening, to take action in regard t.
the nomination. This looks as though the member
Of the party, in this Hundred as we'll as in old Ap
poquinmink, were not ready to be kicked and cufct
at pleasure, as may suit few selfish and aspirins
demagogues,
IL lis also reported that resolutions approving til,
course Of Mr., Bayard were vOled down, a mnjorit,
OF the delegates being decidedly Hostile to his re
election and unwilling to commit themselves to hin
IN any shape or form. Tho nominees are anti. Bay
ard and If elected will favor the selection of Rid
dle' Bates Salisbury or Gordon to the IT, S. Senate
II is amuHng to witness this scramble fer office, thi
effort to get into places of honor and profit, and WI
rust our friends will proGtby the lesson which
affords.
