In the Pcnipsular Ners Of Friday We find the
following.
a COMPLIMENT learn that Gov. Burton
has paid to our good Repuhlcan friends Dts,
Grimshaw and Garrett Of Wilmington, grace
full and well deserved compliment by appointing
them his aids with the rank Of Colonel Let us
hope that patriotism will thus supcrcele parti-
sanism throughout oil our State"
10 the same number of the same paper this
sentence also occurs -
DELAWARE DIsaRAuEp,- Our once honored
State now stands dlsgraced aud degrnled in the
eyes Of the world by the meanness and toryism
of her State officials"
In reading these extracts, are we to infer that
"our good Republican friends,' being now
estate officials, are assisting to " disgrace an.
degrade the State" or are they merely "aids'
to " tory State g5'cial"g Let us have this mat
ter understood. some oil the warmest politica
friends our amiu5le and good-patured friend, the
Postmaster, Cau ever hope to have this side Of
the grave are utterly opposed to his touching
such &" compliment from spcA a source Mr..
Garrett il pFyhe gentleman, representing no
political interest Of his party in an official char.
acleF, therefore he same objection will not apply
to him.

Ano,n.r card from Mr. E.l.on.

MIR. FELTON,, the President of the Philadelphia,
Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad, is determin-
ed 10 chase up and overtake the falschOods which
seem To be set atloat to the injury of the road
Last week he captured one lie, in the phiadel-
phia Inquirer. Yesterday he made prisoner of
another in the Press. Here it Isl:
PHILA., Will AND BALTIMORE II. X. Co.
Philadelphia, June 81, 1861.
To THE EpiroR OF THE PREss-Dedr Sir
notice in your paper Of this morning paragraph
which does great injustice to this road, in stating
TINT twenty. five car loads daily is the utmost
capacity of this route for the transportation of
troops; and also, that New York and New Eng
land troops will be forwarded at the rate OF
twenty-five car loads daily over the Lebanon
Valley and Northern Central railroad, leaving
the reader to the inference that want of capacity
of this road is the cause for sun1ing troops from
New York through Harrisburg, some IS or 81
miles out OF their way. deem il but justice ia
the road represent to state that the capacity oil
the route has never yet been reached, and WI
have already transported 80 cars per day. II
the Government desire it, we can easily send 20t
car loads of troops daily between Philadephia
and Baltimore, and in shorter time, with mort
comfort to the troops, and Mt less expense thai
hy any other route between New York or Phila-
delpha and Baltimore
4 We find no fault with the Government or an.
of its officers for sending troops by other routes
10 case they are shorter or cheaper than ours
10 justice to ourselves, we cannot remain silen
when efforts are constantly made to deprive us 0
our legitimate business by gross misrepresenta
tion from my source.
Yours truly, S. NJ. FELToN

The Responsibility of tho state Ad-
mfnistratiOn.

The Madison Courier, radical Republican, has
the following comments upon Governor MoRroN's
State policy:
We print to day short article from the New
castle Courier, one of the oldest Republican pa
pers in the State, in which some points
against the State Administration are made.
A very foul mouthed editor(?) in Indiana at
tempts to defend Governor Morton by throwing
whatever there is to blame upon his subordinates.
There is no principle better established than this:
Every political party is responsible to the country
for the conduct of the officers it places in power,
and the chief officer is responsible to the party,
well as to the people, for the acts of his subor-
dinates The selection of subordinate officers is
the most difficult of the duties of President of
the United States and of a Governor of State.
The Republican press of Indiana held the Demo-
cratic party responsible before the people, for the
alleged monstrous corruptions of the Democratic
State and National Administrations in the cam
vass of 1860. The press did not permit the re-
sponsibility to be shuffied from one officer TO
another. So it will be in all future canvasses.
Gov. Morton can not throw off the responsible
ity for the appointment of Mansur, Commissary
General, and if corruptions proven upon the
Quartermaster General, Morton can not shirk any
OF the Odum which will attend theexposure. The
"stnking sour meat" Mansur is charged with
furnishing to the soldiers, will be thrown at Nor
ton and his party in the next canvass; it will stick
to him closer than Horace Helfren; so will the
"chickory and burnt BEANS" notwithstanding the
l,bors OF the Indianapolis Journal to account for
it in the coffee furnished by the Commissary.
1t is hardly probable that any future canvass
will be conducted by the Republican and Demo
cratic parties, but there will be, must be, new par
ties; one of these will inevitably be the State Ad-
ministraton party. of which Gov. Morton will be
chief. Ii seems that Morton appreciates the po
sition, and that he is willing to strengthen him.
selfby uniting, as far as possible, the debris OF
the Democratic party to bis fortunes.

Cotton and Freights.

If we are to recognize the belgerency of the
Southern Confederation, and if we respect the
'blockades" of the North, it follows that our
commerce with America will be closed until the
quarrel ends Meanwhile, it does not seem to
occur to our statesmen at home what Lancashire
IS to do for cotton, or Liverpool for freghts The
Congress of Paris came to resolutions in accord
ance with the humane notions of the present age,
and II America did not choose to Join in that
Convention, 1t is yet open for Europe TO enforce
upon the High Seas the doctrines on which the
Representatives Of the Great Powers agreed in
1896. The ports Of the Two Sicilies were not
blockaded against the Stars and Stripes, and so
the ports of America ought not now 10 be scaled
against the commerce of Europe. Asbetween na-
tons, We can know nothing of civil wars, we may
not intervene on the soil where the strife RACES,
but we surely have the right TO prevent the ex-
tension of the quarrel into every sea on the globe

The Americans are seeking to settle by arms on
one side, and apparently by words and threats on
the other, dispute in which Europe has no inter

not discharge the duty she sought to take upor
herself to teach the world in 1856, unless now
when the great maritime power of the West could
scarcely resist an unanimous expression of Euro
