Where is the manufacturer who can
pay such discounts and make anything
after wear and tear? The banks have
consumed the small enterprises of the
country and destroyed the labor de-
pending upon them. These are the
undeniable results of the resumption
act. H.t7- II 9a.Jg q.
Now the foreign bondholders tell
us the silver dollar is below par, so
that to resume specie payment with
deprecated specie seems to be farce
on its face. What kink viii appear
next in our CURRENCY a.a IS
If I am rightly informed, Her Maj
esty's government gave 81, 500, 600 to
get the tariff on iron and coal reduced.
Whether true or not, it is Ia shame
that the American people permit
themselves to be 50 wickedly imposed
upon. Between usnry and frees
trade they are threatened with ruin:
If the democrats succeed in regaining
power, let them be true democrats by
protecting the nations best interest
home industry; and ifthe republicans
are to continue in power, let them
quit daylight robbery. T. R. d

OUR CORRESPONDENCE.
A Glance at our Legislation.

Nh. Editor Political movements
are leading features of the day. We
read of Tilden and Hayes Clubs, and
that both have plenty of backing.
Old Peter Cooper is referee. Both Til
den and Hayes promise reform on
platforms that need reform. The re-
publican financial system is a regular
fraud on the people, and whatever
other harm they have not committed
will be supplied by the democrats who
are going to wind up the cords of
nations prosperity by adopting free
trade. The New York Bulletin says
-$200,00O,000 of English fabrics
weekly" In the same paper we learn
the silk trade of the east has almost
paralyzed our own. For the year end
ing June 80, 1876, the importations of
silk amounted to $22,2O6, ,856-an
amount equal to our entire manufac-
ture. This speaks with no uncertain
sound against free trade. The pro-
tective tariff of thirty cents per yard
on silk during the years 1871, 1872
and 1873, was reduced by the demo-
Gratis, as is well known. Between re-
publican fnanciering and democratic
free tade, is it any wonder there are
tramps? Think of an American citi-
zen, no matter what his calling or pro-
fession, carpet-bag in hand, searching
work, while the very city of his birth
is filling with foreign labor! Does
not every country subject to another,
advocate home rule and home protec-
ton? Why, then, cannot America
protect her industries? Look at the
best mechanics in cities depending up
on soup houses; others crying for
bread or blood, and yet others offering
to sell themselves at half the former
price of a negro.
Let us examine both sides honestly.
The republican party in>1862 issued
greenbacks as a national currency,
and in 1875 they passed the act pro-
viding for resumption of specie pay
ment in 1879. In 1869 there were
two billions of greenbacks afoat; one
billion is called in for redemption in
1879, the other billion is the hands of
the bond aristocracy composed of the
banking corporations of the United
States. In 1872 and 1873 these cor
porations obtained control of the
currency of the country, and what was
the result? We saw business houses
melt away one after another like snow
fakes in the sun. They did it with
their 10, u and Is per cent. interest.

Esquire Puhl's Reply to the Herald =

The editorial attack made on me by
Jno. O'Byrne, Esq, in the Herald, of
yesterday morning, is in general about
AZ untrue as the editorials were that
he wrote in reference to parties form
ing rings and making States, when in
fact, he and few others who were
hostile to the present slate administra.
tion, were forming the only ring and
making states to suit himself. l never
promised him that l would vote for
him as u delegate, nor did l promise
any OF the other candidates, as an
nounced before the election that was
unpledged. No candidate except Mr..
O'Byrne asked me for my vote for
him. When l arrived at Dover, and
on my way from the depot to the ho-
tel, in company with Thos. Bird, Esq,
and two other gentlemen, Mr.. O'ByIne
came up to us and said he wanted to
see me privately. when ] stepped in the
rear. He asked me tocastmy vote for
himself. told him l could not do
that, as l would then consider myself
pledged and hand-bound. He then
asked me again, and to only say the
word ''yes," so that he could report ii
to his friends. / told him / would
not say so. lie then said if would
only "say yes" l should have what,
ever asked for. or wanted for my
friends, then told him again l would
not say yes" He then said that il
he was not elected delegate to St
Louis, it would politically damn him
l told him | could not help that as
wanted so see the county delegates be
fore made up my mind for whom
should vote. And in reference tt
writing tickets for the delegates, it oc
Cured simply thus: was sitting along
side of Mr.. VIM. G. Pierce, of The Sth
ward, who handed me slip of papel
and requested me to write two name,
on the same, he having named tn,
two parties to Inc and that was the only
ticket l wrote for any one, excepting
for my own, and l would do the same
thing for any other person. did no
dictate to Mr.. Pierce or any one else
who they should vote for.

THIRD EDITION. N
The Nominations

HOW THEY WE'RE RECEIVED IN wILMING-
ToN-A GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT TO RE-
PUBLIcANs.
In Wilmington, as in many other
cities, the nomination Of Gov. Hayes at
Cincinnati fell like wet blanket upon
the majority of the Republican party.
The masses of the party favored the
nomination Of Mr.. Blaine, and up to the
seventh ballot We're enthusiastic and
hopeful. But the seventh ballot fell
with sudden and crushing force upon
them, and saddened and disappointed
they gazed blankly into each others
faces and wondered dimly where the
lightning had struck. No enthusiasm,
no cheering or yelling by jubilant Repub-
licans. All was silent, and the grand
arrangements for the celebration of
Blaine's nomination were left unfinished.
The nominee for Vice President being
almost entirely unknown, people began
to inquire "Who is Wheeler ?"
A few were able to give the desired in
formation, and when the reply was made
Hes only New York Congressman"
faces grew blanker than eyer, and the
Republican party of Wilmington set
tied into mass of apathy and despair.
Leading Republicans, W hen approached
on the subj ct, shake their heads sIgnifi-
cantiy, but have little to say. Mr. IL. +.
Pickles expressed himself us hopeful of
the success of the ticket, but he did not
think the nomination of Hayes would in
spire the party with the strength, vigor
and enthusiasm that Blaine's nomination
would have impaired. He is of the opin-
ion that the next Presidential election
will be the closest and most exciting ever
held in this country, but he hopefully
anticipates Republican triumph.
: Other Republicans, those from the
rank and file of tho party, have no hesi-
tation in predicting Hayes defeat. They
say they have no heart to work for the
success OF "mediocrity and expediency'
ticket.
Democrats generally are confident that
a sound platform and strong nomina-
tions at St. Louis will win the day.

THE NEW CASTLE Jail.
BIG FRANK MCDONALD NOT WANTED
ESCAPE OF ANOTHER CONVICT.

BIG FRANK MCDONALD NOT WANTED
ESCAPE OF ANOTHER CONVICT.
"Big Frank" Mcdonald, the escaped
convict from the Jail at New Castle,
Del, was captured last week in Nor
folk, Va, and the New Castle autheri
ties notified OF the fact, but the latter
have thus far declined to send on and
secure the fugitive. The knowledge
of McDonald's presence in Norfolk was
due to lad who, while playing about
bridge, discovered large collection
Of masks, drills, lanterns, wedges,
levers, and, in short, all the most i'm
proved appliances of party of burg
larious artists of the first class. He in.
formed some older persons about it,
and they repaired TO the locality on the
same night armed with guns. Towards
midnight Big Frank and two compan-
ions came along, and were about to
get out their appliances when the party
in waiting laid hands on the three men
and marched them to prison. AS the
case against Mcdonald at Norfolk is
only based on suspicion, unless the
New Castle authorities receive him he
will be liberated.
A few years age,a burglar popularity
known as "Blackey" left the Jail. as
did big Frank, "a man who has the
distinction OF being the only convict
who ever broke out Of the institution
and eluded pursuit for any length of
time. This he did by entering the
army upon his escape. which he made
during the war, and he was not found
until after the war closed. He was
then discovered in a ncighboring State,
