TRUE To THE LAST.

Delaware, the ''blue hens chicken, ~

out on all the new tangled notions of Dcmec.
cracy, and wants " none of 'em in her'n.
Her Democratic State Convention, yesterday.
unanimously resolved in favor Of ..raisht-
out ticket, and denounced the Thirteenth,
Fourtsenth and Fifteenth amendments 10 the
Constitution as frauds upon the American
people, which all the true Democrats of the
sovereign State of Delaware will ever hold in
supreme contempt, and will repeal, abrogate,
and totally wipe out, as soon as thev get the
power.
That's business; it seems like old times:
1t has familiar ring, and brings us back to
the good old days when the Democracy didn't
add hypocracy to its other sins by pretending
to be what il want In these day. Of
Democratic dsgensracy where 30 many of
the trusted lights Of the party are living a
lie BY claiming to be what they are no, and

We agree with the Pittsburgh Comntereidi,
that one Of the most important acts o. the
Congress jus: adjourned, ia the passage oil
the tax and tariff bill, whereby the ca''ntry
will be relieved of taxation amounting IN The
aggregate 10 s53, ,000, 600 annually. The to-
til reduction within the last two years Is
sl4e, ,000, 600. These measures OF the he-
publican party for the relief Of the most ni'
portsn, interests OF tn country cannoi faii
10 command the Learty conimendailon OF all
right thinking men. The magnitude Of 'h-e
REDUCTIONS has no parallel in the history OF
the country. They have been made volun-
tarv. and with view to relieve the burdens
of the people as fast as the requirements o.
the Government would allow, without eH-
posing other interests to sudden and
disastrous changes. While tightening
taxa;ion, the party has also s;riven
TO crrtaiI tie expenses of the government to
the lowest point consistent with effectiveness.
Increased efficiency in the civil service has
tended materially to this result. The bill
i,s, psssed reduces the number Of collectors
and assessors two hundred and seveniy-hTe,
aud repeals the moieties to iniornners. In
the face Of these facts there are ihose un-
scrupuIous enough TO charge the adminis.ra-
ton with corruption, extrayagabce and de-
sire to oppress the people for the benefit o.
ofIicc-holders. These uniounded accusations
may deceive the ignorant and the prejndiced,
but there are Thousands of intelligent Demo-
c5a;s who appreciate The truth; and, however
they may differ from the Republican admin
istra,ion on other questions, sisei credit for
integrity and general irusiwortLiness.

Ia eight or ten days from now, the en-
tire wheat crop of this country will be har-
vested. The average yield is remarkably
ligh,-not much over one-third the usual
crop-al,houghw hear OF a number of fields
that will turn out upwards o:twenty bushels

but the heads are large and well filled.
There was no; over half as much wheat sown
