Driving through The park, past the pal

the gardens, which abound In shaded
avenues, bowers, grottos, statuary and

Louis XIV, who added the theatre and

The Negro Element its 0nyU
Dependence.

It IS clear that the Republican Party
Is not only split up in Wilmington, but
the discension extends to the whole State.
The Commercial may attempt to conceal
and deny this; but it is too apparent not
to be known to all who read and reflect.
The negro element is the only solid ele-
ment upon whom the party can now de.
psnd for Its votes, and they could not be
haid in the traces if It we're not for
their ignorance, and the fact that the
Democratic party will not allow them to
commingle in their meetings and take
part in their conventions. And to be
honorable and consistent members Of
our party cannot ask to vote with
them or for them, who they will not
associate with or vote for. When q
Democrat asks negro for his vote, to
be consistent he must promise 20 vote
for negro for Office This is fair. But
the Democrats can only promise the
negro good government. Now the Re-
publican party promise to run him for
Office. but instead thay only give him bad
government. How long will it take,
therefore. to make this element vamoose

and it will take all the pleading and
promises that Mr.. Valentine is capable
of to induce them to cast full vote at
the city election. The Republican party
isadsrs have fairly gorged themselves
with plunder through the aid of the negro
element. Without it that party would
have been in the minority all over the
country ten years ago.

Sheriff sales in this county, now, with
the aid of advertisements in Every Eved-

The talk about breins, and the stupid

advocates of the repeal, but the unfair ,

to enable Mr.. Croasdale, who

A NEW SECRET PARTY,
ANTI CATHOLIC ORGANIZATION IN MARY
LAND,

ANTI CATHOLIC ORGANIZATION IN MARY.
LAND.
The Washington Star says: Lately
we made some mention of a new DO.
litical organization of secret nature
that seemed to have its nucleus in
Maryland. Since we have seen it
stated that the new party was rnvi.
val of the old know-nothing organiza-
ton, that shot uq into such formida,
Bile proportions Il few years ago, and
dwindled almost as speedily rs it arose.
Our information is, however, that the
new organization is not "native"
party, but that il embraces many for.
clgncrs in Its ranks. Neither is it
confined to any political lines. SO far
as can be gathered it is strictly secta-
rian, anti-Catholic party, and in Many
land it seems to have been organized
on the basis of opposition TO sectarian
appropriations. The following circu.
lar, issued from Baltimore, seems to
set forth the objects of the party with
explicitness:
"Y Oh are called upon to unite at the
bsllot-box 10 resist papal prctentions
in our politics. The Church of Rome
has long controlled, directed and mis-
led the Democracy, and now believes
that with her compact military church
organizations and by aid Of her ancient
diplomacy, her counsels may totally
ignore the Protestant spirit within hel
party, Convene, then, citizens, for
the purpose of organization, that you
may with more ce,tainty of success
beat at the elections those candidates
who do the bidding of Rome; that you
may resistth destructian of our schools
and by your vote maintain the scpar.
ateness ef state and church, demand
ing the taxation Of all church property,
and the discoptinuance of sectarinn
