pEcLIsED.-victor DUPONT, ESQ has writ
ten note to the editor Of the Gazette, saying
that he is "not candidate for the Democratic
nomination for Governor, and that he will no
under any circumstances accepta nomination
for that Office
The Democrats have other gentlemen in this
county who are more aspiring, and we may
soon see in the Eee,y Erenino, as well as in
the Gazette, flaming communications setting
forth their qualifications and commencing them
to the support of all the people, particularly ii

we suppose, however, that our neighbors OF
the Commercial will hardly take All spple ONT
OF that basket, although they have said some
things which might possibly lead few Rapub-
Means who are governed by territorial consider
atoms to do So if tho nomination is not made

No BAReAIN.-We say again that We never
heard Of any bargain or contract having been
made by any Republicans that Dr.. Jump should
be nominated for Governor al tie coming
State convention, or at any other lime. Yet We
do affirm that at the close Of the convention
at Dover in 1870, that many delegates who
had voted ior Coursey remarked that DIR. Jump
should be the candidate. We believe the ma.
jority so expressed themselves and this feeling
seemed to be almost universal. 4 his fact, in
connection with other exhibitions Of feeling at
the close Of the campaign, led us to say tina. 1t
was conceded by quite large number Of prom
inent gentlemen that the nomination in 1874
would be given to gentleman in Kent County
We think that the circumstances justified ou'
REMARKS and good faith requires conformity
thereto, yet there was no actual bargain or con
tract.

without regard to where he or they may come

moral and honorable citizens will he selected
for positions Of either honor or profit. If the

- efficient agencies in carrying for
ge1j fbe great work of building up, upon the
vi oro1ite Of Liberty and Equality, the
Toigbty and splendid superstructure of this
Government. When this Declaration was
made, and when the Constitution was framed
in conformity Herewith, then was the human
mind led up out of the gloomy darkness of
bondage into the glorious light of liberty
The letters of Kings mandate, or of tyrani-
cal legislation, have never been known here TO
check the growth OF intellect. And what is
the result? The triumphs of the human mind
since the organization ofthis government have
been most wonderful, indeed; whether in the
boundless domsins of science, the realms of
literature er the fiowery fields of art. The
Teaping machine, the moving machine, the
steam engine. the ecleetric telegraph. and IL
Vulnerable other useful and labor saving inven.
lions, exist to-day as the grand products of
/ American thought and genius. In conclusion,
permit me to say to the Firemen of Washing

Hon. John q. Smith.

Our member of Congress returned
home last week after the adjournment.
His neighbors and friends give him
hearty greeting, as they feel that they
have been honored by his attention to
their interests in Congress. Not since
the close of Hon. Thos. Corwin's Con-
gressional career, have we had more
able industrious RepreseE sative than
Mr. Smith has made. He has shown
careful judgement in his votes, and by
his consistent and energetic work he
has made his influence felt on the floor
of Congress. The people of our Dis
trict and especially of Clinton county
may well feel proud of their farmer
representative, the only one in a halt
dozen neighboring States. His repom
ination and re- olectio by handsome
majority, will be but q simple act OF
justice to him, and that it will reflect
credit on the Republicans Of our Dis,
trict no one doubts.-[Clin Repub-
! lican.
