Ma. D. A. MAnoNy, publisher of the

rested by order Of the Government on
charge of having discouraged enlist

convention held at West Union, Fay

TINS is all wrong. Whether Mr.. Maho
ny be guilty or innocent, we know no.,
nor is it material in this connection.
His arrest must be supposed to have
been by competent authority, and, while
he remains in custody, it is contempt of
that authority to place him in The atti-
tude in which he is placed by this nom
ination, and we trust all good Demo
Gratis will wash their hands Of the pro-
ccedilg. 1t is one of the most obliga-
tory commands Of the Democratic
faith that the citizen shall yield obedi-
ence to the law, or what shall stand as
law for the time being, and that aboli-
tionis,s have for years detied the law
and nulified it, is no provocation OF
apology for the same thing by Demo
Gratis. The members OF the convention
which nominated Mr.. Mahony may have
believed that he had teen wrongtuIly
arrested, but this does not alter the
case. Though be be entitled to be con-
sidered innocent Until he be proven
guilty, decent respect tor the govern

Let Democrats remember that there
is but oac safe way out Of the terrible

A bill is TO be introduced into the
Legislature Of Delaware 20 abolish sla.
very in that State by this bill il is
provided al that slaves over thirty Eve
years Of age shall be freed within ninety
DAYS after it become law; all under
thirty five shall become free on reaching
that age; a.. males born after the bill
becomes law are to be slaves till they
are twcnty-one, and females till they are
eighteen; and al slavery is to cease at-
ter January Isl, 1872. These provisions
are made conditional upon this, that
Congress Viii, at its present session,
engage to pay to the State Of Delaware.
in bonds of the United States, bearing
interest Mt the rate Of six per ccntum
per annum, the sum of 5000, 1000, in ten
annual instalment, 100000 to be pay
able on some day before the first day
Of September, 1862, to establish und
for securing full and fair compensation
to the owners Of slaves who shall have
been Invested of,heir property by force
of the act in question"
Delaware has, according to the cen
ens Of 1860, eighteen hundred and five
slaves. and the sum asked of Congress
for their gradual emancipation amounts
TO five hundred dollars head, which is
fair price. The Wilmington Repnb
icdn says that many Of the largest
Shareholders are in favor OF this bill,
and that "many Of the Shareholders
would gladly exchange thcir-laves for
money, which they could use in pay
mcnt for their lands and contemplated
improvements
If this measure comes up before Con-
gress fer its response, we hope that
body will make it condition to the
national assistance tina: the State of
Delaware shall engage itself to provide
by sufficient laws for the rights of the
freedmen, and also for their education.
