The election in Delaware, Tuesday, for In

majority of 30 so far as heard from.

and is sitting bolt upright therein, enlighten-

The 'Tammany Ring" in New York are so
| frightened at the boiling of the 'Young De

| candidates for the city and county offices will
be nominated upon which the Republicans
can unite, that, in their desperation, they have
issued an edlct that, .,"if the Republicans do
not set up straight-out independent ticket OF
their own for city and county officers at the
coming election, every Republican now hold
ing Office under Tammany Hall shall be forth
with removed" 1t is very evident that the
Tammany party in New York is "in peck Of
trouble"
opened in very spirited manner, which
promises the best results for the Republican
| ticket.
The New York Commercial AdUertiser say:
whatever the result may be in that State OF
Governor, there is not much doubt that thu
Republicans will carry the Assembly. Th'
contest for Congress in the various districts
ought to call out large vote, and large vot'
is sure to give the Republicans the control o
the Assembly.

i OUR PISCATAQUIS COUNTY CORRESPOND
ENr wrote last week that great deal of in
dignation was expressed in that county at the
course of the State in paying bonus fol
Swedish emigrants to settle in Aroostook
county; and he says, moreover, as clincher
that for one half the cost to the State an
equel number of families of Piscataquis coun.
ty can be gathered to COLOMBO in Aroostook
county. The PRESS takes different view OF
the subject. If our correspondent will ex-
anime the census returns he will find that in
the rural portions of the State, except in
Aroostook county, there has been a deploaa-
BILE falling off in our population during the
last ten years; and that the small gains which
the State has made in the number of inbabi-
tants has been exclusively in and aronnd the
larger towns and cities where commerce and
manufactures are depended upon. and even
the increase in Aroostook has been drawn
rom the population of the older counties al
most exclusively.
How to check the tide of emigration from
Maine. and promote our agricultural inter-
ests-to bring our millions of fertile acres I'm

sition, has long beeu matter of solicitude tn
our legislators and practical business men.
Inc larger cities have attracted manv of our
young men, aud the Central and Western

of the vast army of European emigrants ro
main with us, but push their way to the West
and Maine lis gradually losing her position as
an agricultural State. Now the question
arises, how shall this difficulty be met. Has
the policy of the State been injurious to her
farming interests? Perhaps so; but if so.
this does not answer the whole question.
Another explanation is, that our extreme
northern counties have offered no temptations
to farmers because of their distance from
market Not even the offer of rich soil at a
nominal price hrs been temptation TO set
tiers What, then, must be done2

LIES RoMANcE.-Many of our readers, mo
doubt, remember the excitement which was
caused in this city just previous to the late
war by the attempted seizure of colored man
named Charles Male, who was in the employ
of Mayor Gilbert as coachman, and who it
appears, was runaway slave. He was track
ed to this city and pursued, but eventually es-
capped to Canada, and during the war returned
to this city and lived in peace and quietude.
Male was almost white in complexion, and
had daughter, named Alice, whom it would
be difficult to distinguish as colored girl,
Her complexion was light and freckled, and
her hair straight anftinged with red. Some
time ago the daughter-now grown to he a
young lady-obtained employment at Wash
ington as seamstress, and there met colored
gentleman, named Ruby, State Senator of
Texas: and on the goth Of September last she
was married to him with all attendant cere-
mony. The couple are expected here to visit
relatives about the 10th of the present
month, and reception to the Senator will,
undoubtedly, be given. Mrs. Ruby was al
ways distinguished as young lady of con-
siderable accomplishments, and Senator Ruby
may congratulate himslf on the feet that he
has done well in his choice of a help-meet-.-
