John O'Byrne ON the Resolutions O
MIR. WildS.

Aho hIlnlugtOn AuCeTttSff OF Oaturuay
has the following: -
The fate of our party-its very existence, so
manlfestly depends upon its policy that we
cannot nor will not be silent while it is being
debauched by leaders who are unable to see
how fast the world moves. Once for all, let it
be distinctly understood that one large class of {
the citizens OF Delaware, "a class remarkable for
their tealty to the Democratic party, have too
much at stake to accept the White Mans
Party hereSy. The rights which are given to
naturaIlzed citizens are of constitutional origin.
10 deny or 0bstruct the right of the negro to
vote, would be an impeachment of the very A
power which qualities foreign born man for C
citizenship. Their citizenship is creation of
the Federal Constitution. The citizenship of
the negro is alike IA creation of that instru-
ment. The principles of the White Mans
Party is reasonable in its philosophy, and if
we admit that party may ban class for an
accident OF color we cOncede its power to do SO
for an accident of birth or belief 1t may be
said that there is no danger of such thing
happening. 1t may be so. Better still to
render its happening impossible.
The BDurbOnS are inconsistent and illOg
ical. The Fourteenth and Fifteenth amend
ments are those con.tanty resolved at'-the
reason because they were passed in fraud
! Why not resolve at the Thirteenth Amend
ment, which coDfessedy was codifed as part
OF the Constitution by fraud and violence,
hene6cent and grand as are its provisions? For
the reason that you dare not. All the virtuOus
hosh about fraud, &c. is cowardly buncome.
! \ gu ale indignant about the fraud of the
Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments and
like LdzdrOni swallowing nLdcdrOMi. you gup
down the big fraud of the Thirteenth Amend
ment with ,ut making wry face.
"COwardice and Inconsistency, can you 60 |
any further?
HAS it never occurred to our Evangelical
friends in the State, that the white Man
Party idea is at war with the christian doctrine
of the unity of the human fimlly and directly
in the teeth of the spirit of the new Testament,
: which teaches the equality of all men in
: Christ. We have again and again discussed
e this view Of the question, without any one pre-
e sumlng to answer our arguments Coming
= down to the sober practical view of the matter,
t a platform scabbed over with this heresy IS not
Democracy, and of course cannot command the
n suffrage of Democrats. In New Castle and
n Sussex not one third of the party would touch
i such platform, and We know the DETECTION
f would be very considerable in Kent.
" 1.-The proceeding in the House upon Mr. Van
e Gaskens motion, indicates a trouble for the
e BourbOns, they are too blinl to see When
IS clear headed and brave Democrats like Hck
d man, Martin and Thompson of Sussex, think
e ing like Statesmen, and acting like PATRIOTS
e vote with the Republicans upon a party
- interests of freedom, which would sweep away
fOgyism, as easily as the sea breeze breaks
through the fragile spiders web, which gllHts
in the morning sun beams These Sussex men
deserve well of their State, and they may
= proudly demand, and they will receive, the en-
~ dOrsement of their constituents.
