New Castle Letter.

NEW CASTLE; DEL, Oct. rs.
The Tilden and Hendricks Club, num-
bering over two hundred and fifty per-
sons, went down to Delaware City in the
steamer "Jersey Blue" and returned
about IL NJ, everything passing very
quietly.
The Republicans will turn out this
evening to receive the clubs from Will
mington, and from the activity amongst
the members of the clubs here, quite a
large turnout may be expected band
of music having been engaged for the
occasion. ..
We thank the Commercial for taking
up the cudgel in our defence. We were
absent when Euerg Erening's man made
his attack ON us, and it looked very much
as if he knew it. He is beauty that
is all we can now say Of him.
Four young men arrived here yesterday
in skiff, which they offered to sell to the
men at work on the Tasker wharf, at diff
ferent prices ranging from $40 to So
This created suspicion and officer Con-
ner was sent for and arrested them. One
of the boys has since confessed that they
stole the boat from Chester, or in that
neighborhood. The Mayor holds the
boat and the prisoners, awaiting the own
er of the boat.

GETTING 1T THE ROOT.

Striking for Higher Game-Redching
after The Distribute Of Fradulent
Idr Receipts.
While the arrests of colored men who
voted or attempted to vote on fraudulent
tax receipts has been the aim of the
Democratic Inspectors to reach those who
distributed the fraudulent receipts has
been going on for the past two weeks, it
has been the aim of the Democratic In
spectors to reach those who distributed
the fraudulent receipts among the colorcd
men, and induced the poor dupes to vote
on them.
Several of the arrested negroes, when
they found what pit they had been led
Into, stated where they had obtained theil
fraudulent receipts and one of them
Nathaniel Byard, made oath that his re-
ceipt had been given to him by Captain
Chas. H. Gallagher, Chief Engineer OF
the Water Department, and the head and
front of the Republican party in Will
mington.
A warrant was accordingly issued for
Capt. Gallagher's arrest, and he appeared
before the Mayor, this morning, for a
hearing but as Esquire Publ and Col
lector Lewis Mccall two witnesses, were
then unable to be present, the hearing
was postponed until this evening.
Capt. Gallagher and Byard, his colored
accuser, left the hall and walked down
the Interchangeable an earnest converse
ton. Before night the negro will doubt
less be fully instructed how to swear but
as his is not the testimony to be depend
ed unon the ends of iustice will still bn
served.
Some of the colored men say that the
fraudulent tax receipts were. thrust under
the doors of their houses, and others
claimed, to have procured them from j.
Dillahey; colored man who keeps a
restaurant under Eighth street Market
House. One of the latter said that Dill.
lahay not only gave him the forged receipt
but endeavored to charge him 10 cents fol
it such rascality is almost sublime.
