THE ADvERrlsER,S RRAsoNs FOR DIv1-

Following the precept of O'Connell aud CARR
son, the Advertiser of Saturday cries Asitate
Agitste Agitate !" on the county division gues-
ton, it's article having been written, az We
suppose, before the vote was taken at Dover. 1t
recites the following conci!e propositions us the
basis Oh which it proposes Division, AMI it insists
that those opposed thereto have not duly
answered them. Although the main question
has been disposed Of, these propositions still
contain something of interest, and we propose
to give them word of attention. The Advertiser
says:
l. 1t has been shown by figures that we are
unjustly taxed for the DeueiG VI other parts of
The county.
2. That the only present practical way to
escape from the injustice of unequal represent
tation Is by division OF the counCy.
8. That division of the county would lessen
taxation, and at the same time vastly improve
the city in every one of its features.
4. That the diversity Of interests between the
southern hundreds and this vciuase,Is so maj kcd
that they cannot be unified AMI per consequence
separation is the only remedy.
D. That the Levy Court is an institution I'M
suited to our city organization, and hence I'M
meaning. That any Increase of representation
IN the House would give us no relief 30 long Ms
the Levy Court absolutely control the fund
arising from taxation.
Upon which we comment:
l. This, if true can be remedied by the Leg
islature, aud neither demands division Of the
county, nor needs to await the slow process of
amending the Constit .tion.
2. This il pure assumption unsustaiuet. by
facts the Legislature has (since the .idrsr-
fiser wrote this proposition,) indicated that Di-
vision was not present road of escape from
unequal representation, at all. And even if this
Legislature had now proposed Division it IL a
substantial impossbility that tile next one would
have ratified it, Division was not a way open.
8. This we deny, point blank 1t is more
costly, the plaineHt man knows, to maintain two
families than one. To make two counties is to
double the outlet of expense, while tho peoplet,
pockets are neither made deeper nor more nu-
merous.
1. This, also, Is pure assumption. The peo =
pie OF the lower Hundreds differ IN no import.
ant particular from the people of this city, and
their Interests are substantially the same
8. This is answered ar the first proposition
was. Tie glaring injustice of the present Or
ganization of the Levy Court Of this county can,
At any time,b be rcmedied by the Legislature, aud
does not neei any amendment of the Consttu.
ton.
These are brief, but fair and sufficient, an.
swers to the Adeertiser's five reasons for diyi.
sion. We especially commend.to that journal
the first and fifth points. II you see the Levy
Court so bad, why don't your Legislature rene.

DIVISION DOES NOT DIVIDE.

FfpW 'Ht tVHtWtJrmt, ffWuv
The sudden collapse OF the Division PROPOSE
ton. yesterday, WAS rather SURPRISE W there
had been no public intimation that the vote was
to be taken 81 soon. Mr.. Bird, however, called
his bill up, and had it knocked down, in short
order, and while the newspaper friends of Divi-
sion we've still printing columns OF argument in
behalf Of their measure, it lay sacrificed bant-
ling on tho floor of the House, receiving only
eight votes out of twenty. one, and scarcely get
ting more than one-thrd of the whole number
instead of the two thirds which it needed
The measure never had any strength with the
people. Toa number of our citizens it ap-
pearod to be the best thing that could be done,
sndeFtte circumstances, bat to the great majo
ity of people, both inside of Wilmington and
throughout the county, it was entirely uuwel-
come and unsatisfactory, being likely, AZ they
believed, to bring more and greater evils in its
train than those which 1t proposed to remove.
Tho members OF the Legislature from the two

wine, and Mr.. Riddle from Christiana-were
both strongly opposed to the proposition, and In
that simply reflected the feelings Of their con-
stluents. The almost perfect unanimity with
which the people of the two hundreds rejected
the wh,l1 proposition may be sufficient warning
for the future, il ever the m.schievous scheme
is revived.
The action OF the Legislature sufficiently dis
proves the allegation that its members were
friendly to the division OF New Castle county.
On the contrary, after the spirited efforts made
in that behalf, with all the influence OF the Gov
