Webster defines it thus; Cranberry, A we'll

berry when ripe is red, and the size of small

MEssRs. EDIToRs.-I observe the names of
quite number of gentlemen proposed as candi-
dates for the gubernatorial chair. If the candi-
date is to como from New Castle county permit
me to suggest the name Of William Magens, of
Red Lion hundred. I know no one to whom we
could more safely confide the interests of the
party. His long and useful life has been spent
In our midst. As business man he has few su-
periors, and for sterling worth and integrity and
iinselfsh devotion to Republican principles his
record is one of which his friends feel justly
proud. With such a man for our standard bearer
in the approaching campaign, victory must be
ours. FARMER.
