The resolution of our State Convention. in.
structing the delegates to the Philadelphia
Convention to vote for the denomination of
Viee-Presldent COlax, is the result partly of his
own popularity and partly of the unpopularity,
In this State, of Senator Henry Wilson.
Mr.. Wilson saw fit, in 1869, to take Delaware
under his especial charge, and it is said dictated
the federal appointments, or at least, threw
the whole weight of his political and senatorial
influence in favor of certain aspirants, and
thereby procured their appointment. A great
many, In fact, large majority, Of the leading
Republicans had made other recommendations
and were justly indignant at this interference
on the part of Mr.. Wilson, who, they said
knew but little of the State of Delaware or of
the relative merits or claims of the different
applicants. Some of the gentlemen against
whom Mr.. Wilson's influence was exerted. were
old and tried Republicans commanding the
confidence OF the party and who would have
undoubtedly received the appointments they
wished, but for Mr.. Wilson 1t is claimed
that the wishes and preference of the party
were set aside to please him, and it is said that
he was himself deceived by certain gentlemen
in Wilmington who made him believe that
they represented the live Republican partv
of Delaware" and pledged him her vote for
Vice President at the National Convention in
1872.
Mr. Wilson sinterference resulted disastrous

campaign OF 1870, and disastrousIy for him
self so for as Delaware's vote is concerned
for, instead Of being pledged to him for Vice
President, it is pledged to his strongest oppo-
aent. Prior to 1869 Senator Wilson was non.
ular In this State, but now there is. perhans
no public man in the Republican party 50 un-
