Mr. EplroR:-On a re-perusal of The Del
drare Gazette Of the 18th Of january last, |
see short article thus:
..TnE FoUR B's.-ln the November cleo
.stion, Delaware gave her votes for Buchan-
san, Breckenridge, Bavard and Bates; four
abs better calculated to secure harmony to
..thc political hive could ''no where be
.sfound."
YEA, SIX BIS Had the Gazette stated
that Delaware had cast her vote at that cleo
ton for Buck Brcck. Bayard, Bates, Bona
parte and the British, and that ne comblia-
ton of Politicians would better advance the
interests of England aud France, at the cost
of the industry of the American People, he
would have como nearer the truth. The
vote upon the last tariff as well as all others
given by the locofocos, on the subject Of Am
erican Industry, show this. 1--WE except Mr..
Bayard on the Reciprocity treaty. See the
reduction from 100 to 20 per cent on French
Brandies, and on other articles, the handi-
work of French and English industry, in
| like proportion. An addition of from 5 to so
per cent on $500 100000 ofimported British
and French goods, is an item worth consid-
ering by the American people. Will Bran
dies: or any other foreign goods be any cheap
or thereby? We shall see. That vote Of the
Democrats was not given without consider.

AMERICANISM NOT DEAD.-The following
correct and sensible views we gladly transfer
to our columns from the Philadelphia News
a warm supporter of the principles Of tn,
Constitution:
Those who congratulate themselves tina,
Amclicansm is dead as they say, and that
the American party has run its race, are not
only dcceiving themselves. but might as well
congratulate themselves upon the fact, that
true RepubllcaHisln. and an honest regard foi
the princi pies of our Revolutionary sircs, ar,
also at the end. 1t is all deception. Amer
icanism cannot die so long AS spark of the
true principles of our Government animate its
people. 1t is a living principle deeply rooted
in the heart of all good and patriotic citizens,
and will sooner OF later vindcatc itself.
History can yet record no memorable battle
between Amcricanism and its tue and lcgiti-
mate enemy. In the last great conflict, the
people were amazed and frightened at the in.
truding form of that foul demon of sectional
controversy, which has so often inilamcd The
national mind and brought the country to the
very verge of disastrous destiny. In the
wild excitement of a contest unknown before.
there was no time to calmly think and reason
upon the great principles, the peaccable pol

American party. Like one adrift and borne
away upon the waters Of some wild Niagara
the masses did not pause to drink from tina,
native stream whose tide is regulated by the
Power of reason-intclligcn and excited. In.
gulphed in u storm of sectional agitation, as
were the people Of the Union, the candidate
of the American party was borne down at the
North, while the absence of faith in the pos
sbility of success destroyed his prospects a,
the South. Upon the broad basis Of American
prnciplcs--on the great question Of their APP.
prevail or condemnation there was no con.
test and no decision.
Such a contest of principle has yet to be
gone through with. Postponed at the be.
hest of urgent and clamorous fanaticism,
that great decision is reserved for the devel.
opments of time to come. When the peopl,
will coolly think-when the question shall
come fairly before the great masses of ntclli
gent freem en--wc have no fears for their de
cision. In the felicity of an unwaverins
faith, and with a firm determination whicl
10 mean disasters can oyerwhelm, we bids
our time. The great mass Of the people
without regard to party, are sound to TIT
heart S core on the subject. They are Amer

Correspondence of The Cecil Wing.

| RoWIANDVILIE, April 29th, 1891.
MIR. EDrroR: The inquiry is frequently
made whether the law prohibiting the sale of
ardent spirits has been repealed! 1t has be-.
come quite common to sec persons Of all ages
and all colors intoxicated on that ishauld be)
sacred day until many insist that that the
Law has been repealed, as also, the law to
prohibit the sale of the liquor to minors -
In Pennsylvania, if mistake not. the sale
to minors disqualilics the party to receive a
License. Is this tn. case in Md! If SO and
the inquiry is made think but few Licenses
will be granted for Cecil the ensuing year -
Also the law requiring all personss to refrain
| from abo; on the Sabbath. 1t is not uncom-
mon to see from 10 to 80 loaded and unload
cd ti>h-wagons pass through our village on this
| Should be) day Of rest: are there any officers
in our land havn. power to prevent the con-
slant dissertation of the day and open viola
| ton of the laws Of our land? If those laws
are repealed then We quietly submit, and say
! reign Sodom until consumed as of old by fire
| and birthstone.
The time for renewing License is Tow at
hand; would it not he well for the granting
officer to inquire well into the application
and ascertain something with regard to the
locality of the house; whether to accommodate
the public or to serve as a public nuisance to
| a ncighborhood; to bleed n fathers and mo-
TIERS heart: to cause a poor heart broken
wife to spend slerpcss nights, spreading vice
and immortality broadcast all over the land.
When shall our neighborhood - our whole
county-our State lie rid Of those blighting
curses that ruins both old and young, white
and colorcd body and soul. p.
None Of the laws mentioned by our cor
respondent are repealed. Those who sell
spirtaous liquors on the Sabbath or to mi
nors, or who labor on the Sabbath are as IL
able as ever to prosecution. The Clerk who
issues the licenses has no discretion in the
matter; on presentation of the legal amount
Of money he is bound give license. But
the people of any neighborheod that suffers
by the illegal action. of any licensed liquor
seller have a recourse against HIM at law
Our juries however, even when temperate
men, always are "tendcr footed" in regard to
these matters.
