some of the farmers do complain, we have had
on the whole fine weather here this spring. We
have not had such floods as they complain Of in

feet high, potatoes larger than hens eggs and
sweet potato vines three feet long.
But we have something else beside good

sey, our candidate for Governor / know him
well, and know he Is not a man to be carried
away by an east wind nor yet by glass of wlisk-
ey, but steady, religious, temperate man. He
is the poor mans friend, and Kent county should
be proud of him. The soldiers know what he
did for them and the help he gave their wives
during the war. There was time when we did
not get our pay for 6 months and then that good
neghbor, L. Is. Conrsey, let their families lave

tell them to vote for our good friend Thomas b.
Coursey, who never failed to help the needy or
to provide i'll time of need for the families of

WHAT THE PRESS SAY OF THEM.
From the Lcesburg (ya.) Republican, June i'll

Thomas Il. Cottrsey for Governor, and Joshua L.

representation of the party ever known in the

nominated for Governor, and Joshua +. Head,
of Wilmington, for Congress. Both are excellent

The cadets acquitted Themselves right maufully:

1 REPLY TO VARIOUS FALSE STATEMENTS

A REPLY TO VARIOUS FALSE STATEMENTS
MEssRs. EpIroRs Seeing it stated in several
Of the papers that placed the name Of Mr..
Coursey before the late Republican convention,
and In others that it was done by Mr.. Spruance,
of New Castle, I beg leave to say that neither Of
us had that honor. 1. was done by Capt. James
Green, of Green's Mills, near Camden, an hon
ored patriot, who, In One hour after the recep'
ton Of President Linco1n's first call for troops,
moved to raise a company, and, in few days,
at his advanced age, left his home to engage in
the defence of his country.
The Democratic papers gladly report tho mis-
statement, and especially that in reference to
Mr.. Spruance, hoping thereby to make it appear
that Kent county was oyerswayosd by New Gas.
there was "bolting BY the delegates from
Kent. ! know Of but one man that left the
convention, and learn that since his sober Sc
cond thought he is reconciled to the result and
is acting wisely.
It has been claimed that tho Nomination was
"ronc6ded to Kent county" This would have
been very undemocratic and unfair to put it in
the power of twenty-one delegates to dictate Ia
and control one hundred and thirty-nine. Nc
such thing is true the New Castle delegation
accepted the two candidates put forward by
Kent, and expressed their preference, but did
not yield to Kent tho privilege to select ire
spectivs Of tho wishes Of the other two counties.
Another misrepresentation was in reference to
Mr. Simmons remarks in answer to another
gentleman, who reflected on the New Castle
delegation and their constituents. Mr.. Sim
mons made no reference whatever, in his reply
to the people OF Kent and Sussex, and made nc
charges of illiteracy against anybody outside Of
his own county. He simply claimed-and justly
that his delegation represented the thinking
and reading people of their county.
1t is charged by the Gazette that u Wilmington
ring in and around the COMMERCIAL office
managed the whole of the affairs of the conven-
ton. This l can most positively deny. We soi
Kent, feel very much Obliged to New Castle, fol
her liberality and magnanimty, but we claim some
share i'll the work of nominating our respected
fellow citizen. We happen to Knew that the de-
sire of making Mr. Pdursey, Governor of this
State, is no new thing and that the present move
ment originated in Kent county, with some OF

he has established for ability and integrity. He

ATTACKS on cornsEY AND nrALp.

From the Georgetown journal, (iebcl and Rahid,)
June lsth.l
The negroes first candidate for Governor IL a
resident Of Kent County, Delaware, aud this is
all we can say for him. No matter il he were
small-sized angel in outward form, we know that
the blackneas of hell lies deep in his inwards
He will, no doubt he euogizod az third Messiah
and worthy follower Of g Old Abe, but the bare
fact that lie is the candidate of the Radical party
and that too by tricksters' and negro votes, il
enough to damn him.
The candidate for Congress il also a nngroite
of the deepest dye and politically as contemplate
as any man in the State.
The negroes candidate for Congress is perhaps
the representative man of his party, and in lii
nomination we have fitting illustration of wrong
done society by the Acknowledgement of hundred
of ignorant negroes. Mr.. Head, alongside OF
the negro Revels in Congress, would happily
illustrate the wisdom and patriotism of the newly
enfranchsed coored brethren.

DEATH OF REV. II. II. NADAI.
The Methodist Episcopal Church is again
called to mourn the loss of one of its chief min
listers. Rev. b. II. Nadal, D. D., died yesterday
morning, at 0 o'clock, lat Madison, N. ]. The an
nouncement of his death was very startling, as
he was known to be in usual health during last
week.
The DIR. was born at Hanover, Pa, in 1915
He graduated from Dickinson College in 1S48.
In 1857, received the honorary degree of d. d.,
from the same institution az a recognition of his
emminent learning and pulpit ability. He was
for many years a member of the Baltimore Con-
ference, occupying several of its leading appoint
ments.
While pastor of Wesley Chapel, Washington,
ID. O., his sermons attracted the attention OF the
nation, and he became warm personal friend and
and trusted adviser of President Lincoln. In 1868
he became pastor of Trinity NJ. l.. Church, phila.,
and the same year elected to professorshiI
in Dickinson College, although he never entered
upon the duties of The position. He was All as
sociate editor of the Methodist and liberal con-
tributor to the leading religious periodicals OF
the country.
In 1867, he accepted All appointment to the
chair of historical theology, in the Drew Theolo-
gical Seminary, and since the death of DIR. Nc
Clintock az acting President of the institution
In connection with these duties, at the time Of
his death he was engaged in writing the life of
his cherished friend who 80 recently fell at his
post in the same institution, DIR. McClintock.
Since the first of April the NJ. L. Church has
lost heavily in useful and eminent men, amongst
the number being two Bishops Thompson and
Kingsley, Revs.Dr. Foss, DIR. McClintock and DR.
Nadal and such noble laymen as Joseph Wesley
Harper and Mr. Cornell, of New York and Samuel
Hines of Baltimore.
