The "Delawsrean ON the "PoIlies.,
The last Delaparean, editorialy, says:
We see no reason why this should not be
done, but for many reasons, some of which We
have already assigned, we infinitely prefer
Greeley to Grant. If we could with a due re-
gard Tor truth say as much for some of the
would-be par excellence Greeley-men here
abouts, We would not hesitate to do so but as
things now stand we should have to be both
0llnd to the movements and actions of some
gentlemen whose perigrinatiOns come within
the range OF our vision when they pay their
almost hourly visits to the haunts of the
Granite, or deaf to the soft mutterings of
these same parties when quietly canvassing
near our presence upon the chances of coali-
ton. We have no sentiment in common with
the followers and advocates of the continuance
IN power OF Grant, nor have we any faith in
those who out of selfish and sordid motives
will strive, by intriguing and designing means,
posed to the present corrupt and dangerous
administration. The only sure way for a party
or people to be successful is to pursue such a
course as shall seem most meet and proper by
the great body Of those who constitute the
element OF power, and it is idle and worse thar
folly for a mere handful of croakers, having
but little concern for any principle of honest
political action. to attempt the Inauguration Of
self constituted power"

A correspondent of the Delawarean, in ar
article headed The Boilers Meeting" write,
as follows Of the " Poles
L could name the men, but do not desire tC
be personal, who assume the title of Many
Democrats. They are the smallest part, no.
only in numbers but in mental calibre, of the
Boilers of two years ago. Their object, if pos
sihle, is to disorganize the Democratic party
and thereby better the chances of Grant anC
the Republican party in the State 1t is known
that they have consulted Republican lawyer
In this town to know whether he would accep
nomination for Congress from them, assuring
him that with a nomination also from The
Radicals he could be elected. This prove,
that their object Is to defeat the Democrac,
if they can. In fact, in the very calls which
they issue they SANDER the Democratic party o
the State, BY alleging, in their own clasSi,
language, that it is hardly likely the part,
will ratify the nomination, and virtually stig
matlze the Democracy as dead party anC
declare for new party.
Last week the "Polly McNatts " issued ,
supplemental ratification poster, which seems
to have been more cautiously prepared thar
the first one. 1t is headed "Greeley and Brow
Ratification, instead of Democrats, and signeC
Many Citizen" instead of "Many Demo
Gratis, while all the garlic against the ring i
omitted. 1t is altogether more carefully wOrdet
than the first one issued, and was doubles
suggested under advisement 1t also name
the speakers to address the meeting, viz: Hon
Richard Vaux, Hon. A. K McClure, of Pa.
Hon. William Whiteley, John O'Byrne, ESQ.
Charles NJ. Cullen, Esq. JAS. r. Booth, Esq.
Jos, NJ. Barr, Esq, and Col. VIM. +. Town
send, and others.
Pretty Well Satisfied.
The SuSSer Journal was the first Democrati
newspaper in this State to come out squarcl
III favor of the abandonment of old issues ant
1t not unnaturally feels somewhat complacen
as 1t sees the papers which denounced it
utterances as treason to the Democratic part,
come along in its rear singing the praises of tn
new departure. .-Erery Erening
