Opinions of the Press.

The Worcester County Shield copies lengthy
AMI able article from the Delaware Common
ueaiih, advocating the policy of uniting the
peninsuar in one State, and thus comments
upon it:
1.-The sensible article we print elsewhere
from the Delaware Commonwealth, respect
in the uniting Of this peninsula in one State,
(Which is the question interesting above all
others now to us here will be read with
interest. There seems to be perfect IMAM
Unity with the press and among the people
of Delaware upon this subject. Should the
Western Shore refuse to yield to the wishes
ofthc Eastern Shore in this respect, it would
clearly indicate an improper motive on their
part. If the Western Shore people are
merely seeking to aggrandize the city Of
Baltimore by making everything tributary
to her interests, we ought to know it. The
course of trade would not be affected by the
desired change, and it could only be done.
