Governor Cochran has issued proclama-
tior designating Thursday, October 195h as
Delaware's Day at the Centennial. This is
the same day selected by Maryland. and lie
the anniversary of the Battle Of Yorktown.
The proclamation runs as follows
WHEREAS, The United States Centennial
Commission has invited the several States
to assist in celebrating the international
Exposition, held in honor of the one hum
dredth anniversary of the Independence Of
the United States, by setting apart a suit
able day for the commemoration of the
growth and progress of the thirteen origi-
nal Colonies and States.
Now, therefore, l. John p. Cochran, Gov
ernor Of Delaware, having set apart Thurs
day, the 10Th day of October, 1876, in sc-
cordance with said invitation, do hereby
recommend to the citizens OF the State that
the said 18th day of October, 1876. be ap.
propriately observed and that the Centen.
MAJ Commissioners of the State take such
action as to them shall seem most proper

Centennial Grounds in Philadelphia, and
do hereby invite all the citizens of Della
ware, and all Delawareans aud their de-
scendants residing in other sections of the
United States or elsewhere, 30 be present
snd participate in worthily communicating
those events which mark the rise and pro-
gress of the State, and Illustrate the hon.
orable achievements of her citizens.

WHY HON. L. W. THAYER REFUSES TO SUP
PORT TILDEN-sOME PLAIN THOUGHTS
PLAINLY PUT.
In his letter printed by the Warsaw (Wy-
oming county, Western Neto- Yorker, Hon.
L. W. Thayer exposes the hypocrisy of Til
den in his claims of canal reform and the
reduction of the State taxes, and says
"The charge 1 make is, that Gov. Tilden
has used his official patronage to obtain
nomination to still higher Office. In other
words, he has perverted a high official
trust to his personal use. That l am not
the only Democrat who entertains this opin-
ion is evident from the protest made by
the leading Democrats of the State against
his nomination. The mistake they made
was in not giving their reasons why he
ought not to carry this State as we'll as why
he could not. Against the false and mali
cious cry that they belonged to the Canal
Ring it doubtless would have been useless,
except to give them real position. Now, we
have complained of Gen. Grant very just
ly as [ think-for appointing his friends to
Office and keeping them there, without re-
gard to their qualifications Mr.. Tilden has
gone step further, and used his appoint
ing power for his own benefit. Both treat
their high trusts as perquisites. The mo-
osity and friendship the motives that in
spired Gov. Tilden were sordid and mean.
Again, Belknap sold his store licenses for
money to please his wife. Had he used his
patronage to elect himself United States
Senator from Iowa, he would have used it
precisely as Tilden did his. If he had sold
the licenses as he did and then used the
money to elect himself Senator, certainly
it would have been no more corrupt. When
public officer prostitutes his office to his
own use he OF course uses 1t in
the manner most beneficial to himself. II
he prefers money, he takes that but if he
prefers to have his pay in political services,
he takes them. The question is whether it
is any less corrupt to dispose of an office by
way OF barter or cash sale. In my judg-
ment the fairest way in which an office was
ever sold was for cash. The difference be.
tween Gov. Tilden and Belknap seems to
be- that the Governor had plenty of money
and no wife, while Belknap had plenty OF
wife and no money.
You have now the principal objections
have to Mr.. Tilden. have no confidence
in him as reformer, but every reason to
believe that his election would be but a
perpetuation of the system which above al
things else desire to see broken up

TO the Editor OF the Commercial
Let me show you the sort of an election
we had in this Hundred. James r. Booth,
Democrat, came to vote and was challenged
on the grounds of not being assessed. and
as a nonresident, he having left the State
several years ago. and his family now resi-
ding in Philadelphia. He, however, pro-
duced tax-recelpt of Israel FL. Fols, Col
lector (and Trustee of New Castle Com
men, for 1875, and the vote was taken by
Boss Herbert" (This is what Mr..
bartholomew, Collector and Inspector of this
election, designated him.) Mr.. Booth has
been IN the State about three months.
William Sipps, (Republican,) a resident
OF New Castle for three years, assessed and
paid his tax this year to Mr.. John Barthol-
omew Collector, was decided by ''Boss
Herbert" as not entitled to vote because his
wife lives IL Philadelphia. Mr.. Sipps works
for his living and supports his family.
No tax receipts were demanded in this
hundred ercept from colored men,
The Ring correspondent of EUeTy EUen-
ing forgot to add that in 1874 the vote
polled at the Little Election was only 450,
with 166 Democratic majority, while III 1876
(by weeks of hard toll and labor of the
Democratic Ripg,) $40 votes were polled,
and only 1873 majority secured.

The Treatment of CoIOred Voters

To the Editor Of the Commercial:
1 noticed in yesterdays issue of EUery
Eoeniag, a report that two colored men
from the Third, and one from the Fifth
Ward we're arrested for attempting to vote
with bogus tax receipts. wish to say that
1 was present at the time and that such was
lot the case in the Third Ward. Those men
had genuine receipts, but had recently
moved from the Third Ward and were not
under the impression that they were voting
illegally. Upon being informed that they
were not entitled to vote, they we're willing
to retire, but no, there was hue and cry to
"arrest them" They we're then collared
and marched off to the Town Hall. hear
since that their cases have been tried and
dismissed. That is sufficient evidence to
prove that the Inspector had no right,
whatever, to cause their arrest. Why, sir,
the only excitement that could be pro-
duced at the polls, was for colored man to
appear at the window and vote

PROSPECTS OF VERY INTENSIVE AFFAI;-
UNPREcEDENTED NUMBER OF ENTRIES.
The races arranged by the Wilmington
Trotting Association, to take place on their
grounds in this city on the 10.h 11th, and
18th Of this month. promise to be very sue
cessful. For the eight purses offered, no
less than 109 entries have already been re-
ceived-a number believed to exceed any,
thing ever known here or elsewhere, as
competitors for eight purses.
The running race, there being no entries,
was called off and has been made for
PAGERS, instead, and the entries will be
filed this evening.
For the ESQ puIse there were entries

The Iron Trade In Eastern Penn,
syIVamias

There seems to be more life among the
iron men of Eastern Pennsylvania, and
furnaces in blast seem to be turning out
more stock and supplying market that is
more active. There is fair work reported
for the furnaces now in blast, but there
don't appear to be any use for the furnaces
that are idle to start in at this time, as any
over production, it is thought, will ruin the
prospects and the markets for all. Opera
tors in the Lehigh Valley are holding large
lots Of pig metal and prefer carrying it
rather than sell at present. The P. " R.
Coal and Iron Company are also carrying
large lots of iron which they propose to
hold until the market becomes stronger
and better. First-class pig iron is in fair
demand, while lowerSgrades OF metal are
difficult to put on the market at prices at
all right or satisfactory. There has been a
brief breeze in the local demand, and man
ufactured iron of certain kinds finds ready
and prompt sale. From all sources, how
ever, it appears that the great iron giant Of
Pennsylvania is gradually regaining little
reath.-Reddi1g Eagle.
