ABUSING STA TESMEM.

The Philadelphia Age recently rcpublish-
ed curious paper which it stated to be q
verbatim copy of an undoubtedly genuine
manuscript written by Thomas Jefferson,
and making grave charges against the moral
character of Patrick Henry. The Baltimore
Sun takes the subject up, urging that the
reputation of Mr.. Henry amongst his fellow
men, and his whole life and history, argue
against the truth of the charges made by Mr..
Jefferson, which it is inclined to ascrIbe to
party passion and prejudice. 1t concludes
its rather lengthy editorial thus .
at is true that he and Mr.. Jefferson
parted company politically after the war, but
he always had the confidence and warm
friendship of Washington, than whom no
man better understood character or was
more inflexible in having nothing to do with
unworthy men,"
The Sun probably knows that after the
war, Mr.. Jefferson "parted company, polit-
ically," with George Washington, Alexan.
der Hamilton, and many other ilustrious
men, and if the Age will give sufficient at
tention to the search, we doubt not it car
find undoubtedly genuine attacks on thes,
men by Mr.. Jefferson, in which they art
accused Of being the friends of France, ant
false TO the country they had saved.
We do not mention this to reflect on MI
Jefferson, with whose profound contsmp
for the powdered wigs, silk stockings, elab
crate ceremonies, and other tomfoolery O
the " Republican Court, VIC sympathize a,
cordially as we detest his States Rights doc
trines, but merely to call attention 10 the
fact that the most illustrious politicians O.
that day were pretty much like those O.
these times, and also TO suggest that some
OF the prominent Democratic politicians Of
to-day will probably confer favor ON theil
great grandchildren by leaving behind then
no undoubtedly authentic record of tn.
opinions they now hold, or profess to hold
concerning President Lincoln, General Gram
and many t4hrrs

TILE LEpI GnHRT

With tue trightful example OF Democratic
mismanagement and extravaganza in the
lower counties before their eyes, it is hardly
necessary for lis TO urge upon our readers in
this county, the necessity Of keeping the
desperate hands Of that hungry party off of
our county purse, or the propriety Of elect
Ing truly representative men, and men of
good business capacity,to manage our coun-
ty affairs. Our candidates are men of this
character, as a glance at their names will
show.
David Woolman, Of this city, is an cner-
getic, active business man, and made one of
the mos efficient members ever in our City
Council. Thomas j. MahalI'y, of Brandy
wine, is another earnest, hard working man,
who has done good service in behalf of the
Republican party, and will make a most
efficient member Of the Court. Amos Sharp
less, Jr., Of Christiana, was good soldier,
and is good farmer, and is just such a man
as Christiana and the whole county needs
there.
George jackson, OF New Castle, and Syl-
vester d. Townsend, Of Pcncader. are both
farmers, representing fairly the most impor-
tant interests OF their respective localities.
The ticket is a good one throughout. and
mould be elected by good majority.

WIIHDRA W.!

Tie Democratic patty, by the same act
was Withdrawn from the possibility of sue

And so let the good work go on.
Let Mr.. Biggs withdraw. lie can have
no inilnenre in Republican Congress. He
can do no,hing for tins district or its people

rcscntalives at Washington. They won't
listen to his high-soun.ling stories about
the waving of the yellow sea beneath the

therefore, we say, let Benny withdraw.
Then here is DR.. Brown. What is the use
Of his spending his time at Dover, when he
might be sellin., town lots in West Whining

That is too recent ari occurrence. They

And, in fact, why as,t have the whole

now that the Republican maioritier in Penn

increased. and not reduced, ut the election
next week. Without these States Seymour

Mark this fact.
Now, gentlemen, do you mean that Della

always to be on the weak side, PLAYING

poses, is defunct. 1t is out OF power. and
Will remain so, Tor at least four more years
More than this, it can never come into now
err except under an entirely new organiza-
tion, and with new platform. The ATTEMPT
made to change its character at New Yort,
was unsuccessful, but next time, after the
experience of the mistake then made. il will
triumph. And then, with universal suffrage
for platform and such man us Chase for

racy?
Gentlemen, you have stood faithfully by
the sinking ship. But now that it is sunk.
why stay longer?
Democrats of Delaware save yourselves

WE GIVE the Salisbury family credit for
ability. They control the dominant party
in the State and through it create offices for
themselves to fill. They fix the salaries of
their offices. They tax every person travel
ing sin, through, upon or over the State,
ten cents each for each Time he moves, in
order to pay those salaries. And when the
travelling public complain, they threaten that
the Legislature will inflct worse punishs
ment, and that if they get into the Courts,
''they will be more anxious to get out than
they seem to get in"
This is reasonable on the part of the Sauls-
burys. Amy quiet submission to the cutting
of their pocket nerve would be unreasonable.
They grow fat on ten cents apiece from peo-
pie who travel Naturally they squeal if
the ten cents apiece is not paid.

TIE GAZETTE of Friday violently attacks
and abuses us for our recent item concerning
transportation Of the school fund. We
nave simply this to say that gentlemen in
terested in several schools have for sometime
been making Intellectual efforts to obtain the
money due their districts that the Gazette
iseif has been applied to, and beyond a
vague assurance that everything would be
all right, no satisfaction could be obtained
Now the Gazette rakes up an advertise
hent published in Dover paper several
months ago which states not that the money
is ready, but that for New Castle county il sis
payable" at the Farmers Bank at New Chs
Tie. So far as the school directors of this
county are concerned that announcement
had as well been chalked on the Court-bouse
door at Dover. The Gazette says 10 was to
nave published it, but by mistake omitted II
II then we were mistaken, and we have as
yet been unable to learn from our informant
whether we were or not, it seems that his |
mistake and ours resulted from democratic
negligence, if not Encouragement, in the |
failure OF the proper officer to give full and
sufficient notice.

Or. Browns Negro Mechanics
How he choIxea or the White Work.
n in2nen Of vvtimingtom.


Adelegation ofmechanics waited uponus yester-S
day. complaining to the public of the action OF
DR.. John A. Brown, candidate for the Leglsia-,
ture 81
They state to us that Dr. Brown, having row
of houses to build, the past season, brought
from Virginia, party of negro workmen, car
penters,. brlcklayers, and stonemasons, whom
be employed to erect his houses. These men,
coming from the old slave system of the South
he hired at much less wages than the current rates
of this city, thus undertaking and choking off
the regular working mechanics.
Whit we say about 1t is this: That DIR. Brown
belongs to the party which has always asserted,
that with the end of Slavery, the black men OF
the South would come North TO compete with
mechanics residing here And go to make the
assertion true, as the colored men didn't come OF
their own notion, he imports lot!
This is competition of cheap labor!
We refer this case and the further facts TO be
learned about 1t to the mechanics and working
men of Wilmington. We suggest also to Doctor
Brown that he cant build cheap houses with i'm
ported negro mechanics and get workingmen'
votes in Wilmington, too. If he takes one, he
must leave the other.

THERE is a SORT of grotesquc humor about
q democratic meeting which amuses u.s.
The idea of n man, often a gentleman of
some ability, standing up before an audience
and arguing questions as dead as Julius Caesar
while his hearers applaud his "reminiscences
of an era past forever, wax indignant with
him over the march of destiny and grow en-
thusiastic over his promises to turn back the
mighty tide of events.
What keen sense democrat must have
of the fitness of Whittier's words:
.'For of all sad words Of tongue or pen,
The saddest are these 1t might have been."
But then it wasn't, and what are they going
to do about it? This being the exact state of
the case with them, it is funny to see them
cheer &C., as though they were happy, and
it reminds one more of wake" with the
corpse IN full sight Of the revealing mourners,
than any thing else we can imagine.
