the statement by including the fees re-

THE New York HERALD ON DELAWARE
AND MARYLAND The fifteenth amendment
seems to have touched most effectually that
particular chord in the democratic heart that
has hitherto vibrated for the oppressed cOlOred
man. Now that he can vote without doubt,
and III chances OF preventing his voting are
lost, there is nothing that democratic heart
and head Especially head) can conceive too
good for him. Governor Bowie, of Maryland,
has even mustered up victorious Indignation
that eliminated in veto over a bill of the
Legislature incorporating new town (Chos-
tertown) wherein the voters are described as
white male citizens AS for Deaware-almoSt

Of colored voting on the school question in Will

democratic election officer accepted the new
voters ballots without challenge or change of
color. Delaware is thus the very first to accept
the new political element under the new amend
ment, aud we predict that her whipping post
will be abolished before long.

CoLoRED VoTERs. By the operation Of the
Nine Wards Bill Democratic measure
passed ny the last Legislature to controe the
city Of Wilmington for the interest Of that par
ty, the "ncgroes" voted on Saturday last for
School Commissioners in most of the wards.
Previous to the passage of this Till the old
qualification of School voter required the
payment Of School tax But the Nine Ward,
Bill abolished that requirement and threw open
the doors Of the city election wide and abolish
cd the requirements Of city tax payment in
order that none CT their voters should be left
outside. Here occurred a most mortifying
blunder-the qualification of voter at the
Schoo! election was placed on the same easy
terms as that Of the city election, and through
this broad avenue large number of colored
citizens went TO the polls and deposited their
tickets on Saturday, which by the operation Of
the Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution
made colored men qualified voters. Did ever
the evil purpose Of conspirator more conspic-
uously return to trouble him?

Cowgirl Corner, having missed a quantity of
wheat from his barn that morning aud seeing
fresh wheel prints in the barn-yard, tracked

an half distant. DuttOn refused admission
to his barn, whereupon Mr.. Cowgirl went to
Dover iCr an officer, leaving two men to guard
the premises During his absence five negroes
made their escape by running to the woods.
The barn was duly searched when the wheat
and large quanty Of goods of nearly every de-
scnptlOn was found, most Of the articles being
packed in chests ready for removal. Most of
the clothing belonging to Mr. Kaatz Of this
t'wn, Was found, together with the goods rob
bed from the stores Of Wallace & Burton, of
Dover, and Mr. Stevens, of Camden. A large
quantity Of meat was also found, robbed from

The value OF the goods found is estimated at
over $1,000. The following arrests have been
made: Henry johnson, Samuel Benson,
Thos. Dutton, Sy Green, Swany Saxton, Dan.
