They NIingle their Tears at New CastIe-A
Gloomy Look mt the Handwriting on the
Wall.
The Wilmington Commercial continues to
make the Delaware ''white" men laughing
stock. We take the following from its report
of one OF the late forlorn attempts of the De-
mocracy of that section:-
For some weeks call signed by Mr.. Samuel JEFF
ferson Chairman OF the last County Convention OF
the Democratic party for this county, mas been be-
fore the people calling on all white men to meet at
New Castle on Saturday to take measures TO pre-
vent the ascendancy OF this dreadful radical party"
Iu response to the call, about two hundred or tive
hundred and 1fty sin0n-pufe Democrats Cid meet
thtre. About twenty from the lower end OF the
COUNTY came up on the morning train, Newark
sent delegation OF about thirty, and brass
band THIS party feeling the soiemnlty OF the
occasion, and seeing the grave prospect ahead,
formed themselves into a funeral procession, Mr..
REYNOLDS and somebody else riding ahead as preach
ers, the band-wagon representing the hearse and
and decOrousy, at true funeTeal pace and with
than funereal soemnity. The midday train from
Wilmington brought another brass band and the
remainder OF the two hundred. They walked up
from the depot in procession, but all OF them ap-
peared az ahamed OF the business, and in the attempt
OF so many TO appear spectators there was soon no
Finding Court in session, the meeting was Or
ganzed on the east side OF the JAIL the stoop OF the
Sherifrs house answering as platform for the
MI. Wniteiey was called for, and made brief
but clustering address that awoke responsive echoes
in the market-house opposite. He spoke, he said a.
a Democratic politician OF thirty years standing
and advised the Democrats TO lay aside all past DIFF
ferences as 10 tariff etc., and ask all Republicans td
Join them for this campaign assuring them tnat tn'
eleventh hour convert should be as good as th'
oldest party man amongst them. Mr. Whiteley de
clared he would vote for no man VINO WOuld ask

to which the speaker responded

cried 'tIlVe en- =; 70 WHICH the Speaker TtSpOndcd
81 wish could"
Some one here moved that the meeting adjourn,
and showed disposition to push his motion, though
Captain Barr, for whom some calls had been maze,
was seen advancing towards the stand. The Presi-
dent remarking that nobody ought to be choked or
neglected to put the question, and Joseph mounted
the steps and made violent harangue in which
he spoke OF the Congress OF which the first
speaker is a part as "a dsorganizing revolution
ary body that presumes to call itself the Con-
gress." He said but two or three amendments had
ever been submitted to the Constitution before the
radical party came in power and il had already pro-
posed S. Quoted, without credit, some Democrats
history OF Jamaica, made blackguard remarks, and
repeated doggerel verses about General Butler ex-
pressed violent regret that Brooks had not killed
Charles Sumner, wished the May Flower had been
sunk in mid-ocean, and villhed the memory OF
Thaddeus Stevens.
The meeting adjourned with few feeble cheers
fer the Democratic party and the white man.
