vulslons the greater part of the night.

Mr.. EDIToR;- Would you please be SO
kind as to insert the following statement
in your paper for the benefit of your nu-
merous readers who are engaged in the
trade?
Mr.. j. w. Vandergrift has in his Or
chard two hundred trees of the variety of
Crockets White, but recently named by
one of our worthy citizens "White Fawn. :"
In 1869 those trees bore 1905 baskets,
in 1870 the same trees yielded 700 bas-
kets.
The 1905 baskets sold for 25 cts per bas-
ket, making $401 .25, the 700 baskets
brought, averaging $1.16 81 per basket,
$S14. We make no comment. Yours &c.

FEDERAL INTERFERENCE WITH ELEc-
TIoNs. We have the authority of Re-
publican official for the statement that
Marshal Dunn says he spoke only in jest
when he talked of sending soldiers to the
polls in this State. And so it has become
a matter of jest for Unitel States Mar
shal to threaten to send soldiers to the
polls to overawe citizens at the elections
We hardly know which is the worst, to
do such thing in jest, or in earnest. 1t
would be no jest for Marshal Dunn to find
himself in the tolls of the State law, for
unlawful interference with the elections.
From the same authority we hear that
deputy marshals, will be appointed in all
the Hundreds, it is probable. These dep
uties will be as amenable to the law as
others, and should be careful of its infrac-
tion, presuming not upon their official
character to shield them in any sense from
the penalty which it imposes; for exam
pie will be made of any one who shall
disregard the laws of this State in refer
ence to elections. H,

see by the Delaware Republican. Mr..
Editor, that the Republicans have called
their meeting for Middletown, in the Town
Hall. Is this done to hide the smallness
of their numbers, or is it done to exclude
the blackeys from their association? Do
they mean to "go back" on their colorcd
friends, and shut them out from seats be-
side them in the Town Hall ? Come, Re-
publicans, honor bright, now, and don't
resort to any such dodge as that. Take
the darkies into the Hall, along with you,
and divide the honors of the organization
of your meeting, with them. Give them,
if not the President, at least Vice Pres
ident or two, or the Secretary. This is
no more than fair. If you expect to get
the votes of the negroes, show them that
you are not ashamed of them. The black
men are watching your maneuvres, and
they will keep an eye on all you do.

We think that the Secretary of the
Peach Growers Association, might have
slips printed at the office of the Delaware
an, Of the proceedings of the Association,
and send them to the newspapers of the
State, SO that all might publish them as
early as possible, and not have to wait to
copy them from the Delawarean, week
or ten days after meeting has been held
After the many courtesies extended to the
Association by the Press Of the State, in
promptly publishing the notices of their
meetings, and the proceedings Of said
meetings after they have been held, we
: think the Association might, through its
proper officer, in spirit of reciprocity, do
this much for the distant Press, at least.
1t is not always convenient for them to
have their reporters present at the meet
ings of the Association, and if it we're, no
published proceedings of that body are
authentic except such as bear the sigma
lures of its proper officers.

ARREST OF CITIzENs.-On Thursday
night last Col. Geo. Gale, levin Usilton
and James Cohee, Esqrs. were arrested by
United States Marshal, under the act of
Congress to enforce the fifteenth amend
ment, on the affidavit, we are informed, of
John w. Corey, James L. Bowers and
John r. Beck, charged with intimidating
a negro voter before the Registrar of the
Worton District.
The arrestof these gentlemen has been
agitated ever since the close of the sitting
of the Registrars in September, one month
since. We are not advised of any of the
facts-if there are any facts in the case
but we know from the character of the par
ties arrested that the charge will not be
sustained. .....
This arrest, and the rumor which has
been started that forty citizens of the coun-
ty are to be arrested, is intended to intim-
idate our people, so that every negro who
may be brought to the Registrars and the
polls by the Radical leaders may be per-
mitted to vote, regardless of their legal
right. 1t is also rumored that soldiers are
to be brought to our polls, to intimidate
voters. We do not believe these reports
are true; but we hope the people of this
county will prepare their minds for such a
contingency, and determine to vote at all
hazards. 1t will not be the first time that
soldiers have been stationed at our polls
and the same parties are at the bottom Of
it here, who conveniently manage to keep
in the back ground and let those who have
less cunning bear the odium We hope
that these arrests will arouse our people to
the highest point of activity to defeat the
Radical schemes to carry this county; it
is an acknowledgment of the want of power
to carry the county fairly. that this scheme
of intimidation has been resorted to.
We hope that meetings will be immedi-
ately called in every district, and the pub
lie indignation expressed for these outrages
upon our citizens. Let the whole scheme
be fairly exposed, and its authors, and it
will arouse such blaze of Indignation, as
will react upon the Radical party here.

ILLEGAL ARREsrs.-A very i'm portant
decision was rendered by United States
Commissioner Osborne, of New York, last
Friday, with reference to the recent arrests
under the congressional election law, the
substance Of which is that the Federal
officers, acting under that law, have no
power to make arrests. This decision was
elected by the arrest of several individuals,
who were taken into custody on Monday,
on the charge of attempting to fraudulent
ly enter their names on the registry. All
the prisoners accordingly were ordered to

New York has been invaded by our
Caesar, who sends thither 1900 soldiers
under command of Gen. Terry, ostensbly
to prevent illegal voting, but really to
overawe the Democratic majority in that
city, so as to defeat Hoffman and the de.
mocratic state ticket. These four thou
sand soldiers are to be backed by eight OF
ten thousand deputy marshals. The World
characterizes this movement as ga foul
conspiracy" and determination on the
part of Grant "to provoke civil war;" but
says the election will be quiet but charac.
terized by an earnest determination on the
part of the people to rebuke by their bal
lots the Radical plotters against the peace
of the city. "This determination will Sc.
