VandeyeP at Delhi.

DELHI, Sept. 10, 1853.
EDITOR HERALD: The Delhi Democrat of
to-day, has called my attention to an arti-
Gle in the Dubuque Times of the Sd instant,
in which that paper, claiming to speak au-
thoratively, denies that Mr.. Vandever in
his speech at Delhi or elsewhere, has ever
admitted that if elected to Congress he
would Gf an opportunity occurred) vote for
the admission of new State into the Union
with u slavery clause in her constitution,
provided such constitution had been fairly
adopted by majority Of the legal voters Of
such proposed State. l cannot give the ex-
act language used by Mr.. V. in answer to
my question as to how he would vote on
such an occasion, but the substance of his
remarks were that as a member of Congress
he would place no restriction whatever up
on the fairly expressed will of the people
that if the constitution had been adopted by
full and fair vote of the people, he would
vote for their admission. And in this view
Of the substance of Mr.. VS. language, l am
seconded b. several prominent Republicans
who were present at that meeting, and
among whom l will mention the name of
James Wright. Esq, the present Clerk of
the District Court. / do not believe Mr..
V. himself will deny the correctness of my
view of the position he took at this place;
and also believe that had he have taken
the contrary position he would have lost
the votes OF many persons calling them
selves republicans. Yours truly,
J. II. PETERS.

Ahe Hoard Of Equalization. The Hall
Mill Reduction.

1t will be remembered that Extra
John Pattee, the Auditor, in the letter
IN defense OF himself and of the Board
of Equalization, published short time
since, claimed that the taxes of the
present year were twenty-five per cent
less than those Of the last fiscal year.
l. also, will not be forgotten, that he
asserted that in all cases where the
Board Of Equalization Ihad added to
the assessed value Of property in any
county, it had been done on account
OF the fact that the Assessor had pur-
posely placed too low value upon
the property estimated by him.
Taking this letter of the Auditor as
a basis, the republican papers Of this
District have continued to assert that
the taxes this year levied upon each
county in the State, arc tewentv-five
per cent. less than last.
BY reference to letter Of Jane.
