Delaware gazette. [volume] (Delaware, Ohio) 1855-1886, 1858-11-05

Our Democratic neighbor seems Distress
ed because we do not see fit to adopt him as
a model, and shape our movements accor-
dinghy. Perhaps we are in error, but we
take a different view of the matter. We
have the vanity to think we are able TO
manage our own business, and when his adj
vice becomes desirable will not fail to ap.
prise him to that effect. If his oft repeated
assertion is proof of the fact, the Gazette is
an exceedingly dull, stupid, and uninterest-
ing affair; its editor a lazy, prosy, weak-and
unenterprising old fogy-while on the other
hand (according to same auihority,) the
Standard is a lively, brilliant; witty, wide
awake, interesting sheet; its editor an in
d~ustrious and enterprisiDg individual; a racy.
talented and strong writer-in fact a "most
tremendous man" in all respects. We free
~ accord him all he claims in regard to him.
%sel--it is the universal sentiment of the pub-
lie where he is known that when he departs
the world will "ne'er look upon his like a.
gain" Only this age of"Atlaniic Telegraphs
and other lSteam Enqines''* could produce
such a prodigy, andit others are unable to APP
preach him in any respect, it is their misfor-
tune, and christian charity would dictate that
it should not be imputed as a fault. OF course
no other mortal could hope to get up such a
paper az he does, when he "spreads" him
self; the effort would be utterly preqosterous.
As to the estimate he is pleased to place
upon curself and our labors, it is a subject
upon which it hardly becomes US to speak.
| The public are perhaps more disinterested
and competent judges-and, actions speak
ii they coincide with him, that the dull
and stupid Gazette should have one Of the
largest and best paying lists of subscribers
and as large and profitable an advertising
patronage Us any country paper in the State,
while the brilliant and ably edited Standard
has always stood very far in the rear of it
in both respects.

By the provisions of the English bill. This
course has raised great commotioD among
the faithful in the South, and their papers
and orators are loud in denunciasion of the
treachery and in threats Of revenge. As a
sample of the tone ard spirit of their spea-
kers, we give an extract from a recent adj
dress of one of the most prominent leaders
of the southern division of the party-Hon.
