TEE Gazette says that Gen. Torbert ia an
applicant for the office of Collector of In
ternal Revenue for Delaware. Gen. Torbert
is brave soldier, and spent the best days
of his life in the service of his country. He
was with Gen. SHERIDAN in the Shenandoah
Valley, and on every occasion distinguished
himself for courage and soldierly qualities
He has earned the favor and gratitude of the
Government with his blood, and should be
appointed.

ON a square party issue, and full popu-

the State is just about 10000. We can
overgo that figure this Fall, and are deter.
mined to do it, Never did the pulse of n
party beat higher than does that of the Re
publicans of New York to-day. The New
Orleans massacre, with the nelarious means
used to mislead the public mind touching the
facts, and the dispatches Of Gen Sheridan,
have aroused stern public indignation
which sweeps all before it. II the election
were next Tuesday, we should poll more
votes than we did last year; with two months
wherein TO enlighten and arouse the masses
by publications and speeches, we can poll at
least 10000 more votes than any party ever
yet cast in this State, save at the last Presi.

ANOTHER NOBLE LETTER---RAY-
MoND THE TRAITOR FLAYED.
These are strange and eventful times. We
scarcely know from day to day where we
are, or who is for and who against the coun.
try. Boldness of speech and yet greater
boldness of action are necessary to indicate
the true man in these perilous hours of the
Republic. Perhaps the "littlo villain" " Ray.
mond, thought so, when he sent the follow.
ing notice to Hon. N. B. SMITHERs. If he
| did, Mi. SMITnERs has met his bold action
by bolder and yet more telling response,
which should make the treacherous New
Yorker writhe and smart under the casliga.
ton. Henry j. Raymond, the traitor to the
Republican party, certainly did not know
the character and sentiments of the patriotic
elawarean--SMTTHERs- whom he sent
his willy note. Here is the correspondence

to-day.
am somewhat surprised that you should
nave deemed yourself in a position to issue
a call OF that nature. When you abandoned
the political organization that conferred upon
you the Guardianship of its National Com
mittce, it seems TO me that sell-rcspeci should
have suggested the surrender of the trust
committed to you, or nj least have induced
you silently TO allow your faithful colleagues
to pursue such course ms their judgments
might approve
had hoped that such was your dotermi.
nation, but your personal notice assures me
that you have not only deserted your trust,
Dht are willing to use your official character
TO distract the councils of those who honored
you with their confidence
The publicity of your acts renders IT i'm.
possible to doubt your adherence to II faction
