TIE GAZETTE, (referring to the Democrat
ic party of this State,) says there is already,
in Delaware Z" White Mans Party, pure
ly, and only such" If this be true, it ad-
mits the charge that Democracy, in Della
ware. now rests on but one single support
that of prejudice against color. 1t is a
"White Mans Party" its organ here states (;
purely "White Mans Party; and only a
white Mans Party"
Now we put the question 10 any Demo
crat, of common intelligence, whether this
is true. If SO, where would itland the party
of this State? In other States, Democracy
makes no such issue, but accepts-nay court:
and "cultiyates colored vote. How
then, can this organization in Delaware b
the Democratic party, if it has but one, sin
gle plank in its platform, and that the on
which the Democratic party of the nation a
large rejects.

THE PENNSYLVANIA PoLIIIcIANs, not be-

Dawson Coleman, the Iron Prince Of Leba-

Of Chester; John Cessna, of Bedford ;

that his chances cannot surely be all dough
James II. Campbell is fine speaker, and
has good figure, so that his portrait would

Of Curtin, or even the shot-riddled Geary
Wayne Nc Neagh is eloquent, persuasive
and blooming John Cessna is active, pug

after all, Colonel Forney, or General Hart

We PRESUME no intelligent person needs
to be told that the public schools of the city
are open to the inmates of the Catholic Or
phans' Asylum, and the Home for Friend
less Children, and always have been. On the
other hand, the laws of the State make no
provision, whatever, to educate the pupils
of the Howard School. Why, then, when
the City Council decides, very properly and
most justly, to assist the Howard School il

g IT IS UNNECESSARY" says the Gazette,
.'to refer to the familiar fact that negroes
epay no school tax" 1t is unnecessary to
refer 10 the fact, not very familiar, perhaps,
that the colo-ed people petitioned the Dem
ocratic Legislature, at its last session, for
such change in the law as would permit
them to pay such tax, in order that the
funds, thus raised, might go to the aid q
cslored schoolsf 1t is unnecessary, like
wise, to mention that this hide-bound, igno-
rant and prejudiced Legislature, some Of
whose members were cheap at any price, fol
any buyer, contemptuously refused the petit
