1t unpopular. But however this may be,
1t was bill which should have been en-
acted into law, in which event the rcsOlu-

would not now have been required. Per-

people of that State, unmolested by rifle
clubs and uuassisted by tissue ballots,
elected Republicans to Office, even the Dem
Ocrats themselves did not presume to raise
the question of fraud, for the laws were
strictly obeycd. But now, when every dis

OF the laws the proof of which was stamped
upon every voting precinct in the State,
there is no escape from popular condemna-

safe, rs Mr.. wADDELI. has decided not to
oppose his seat. In the first district, now
represented by Major YEATEs, Mr.. MARTIN,

as RUSSELL has, and has adopted similar
tactics by means of which TO influence the
next House in the event of contest. He
Is elected by twelve majority only, and is
trying to bolster himself up by proving that
he is not q Republican. He declares that
he was an original Secessionist that he
never voted to put black man in Office,

letter from Samuel Townsend
For the Gazette.

For the Gazette.
MIR. JoHNsoN:-In Saturdays GA
zETTE there is small editorial, which
asks if ii is not a sin and shame that the
produce Of farmers, should lay and rot in
warehouses, because of favoritism to the
manufacturer preventing the lowering of
duties, and opening of the ports to a
moderate interchange of products with
the starving world. Now, sir, have you
any idea if we would burn down our Gus
tom houses, that the people abroad would
eat more bread and meat, and pay us
more for it, and how with such set of
imposters and thieves who are running
the government, do you suppose we
could pay the bills only by an enormous
direct tar, which would be poor ex-
change for burning down our manufac-
tories, and become hewers of wood and
drawers of water for foreign countries |?
A Frenchman can buy barrel of hogs
lard for S25, and make it into perfumery,
anu pun IL up III ldiCN pOlIles anu ldDfls
and send it back here and sell it for
thousand dollars or mor@ and it is said
the French can, out of every hundred
gallons of New Orleans molasses, make
ninety-fve gallons of French brandy, and
send it back and sell to the people of this
country, Qor there are many Noahs here
YETI for from six to ten dollars per gal
lon. |, as one Democratic farmer, will OPP
pose any movement or resolution of the
Democratic party to break down the in
dustres of this country, to court any
foreign buyers for our produce. They
never buy or would not buy only when
they want it, and the increase of direct
taxes, would more than counterbalance
the increased price of farming products
The blunder is our gudgeon Congressman
refuse to spread our commerce over the
world,to hunt up and make new markets
for products and manufacturers. Some
day this fall, when it gets cooler, and if l
feel right, 1 would like to talk two or
three hours OH this blunder of Congress
in defeating the Brazil bill.

A Curious Horse.

The Chester Times says that on Satur-
day afternoon gentleman came from
Wilmington with horse and phaeton,
in which were two women. They stop
ped in front of one of our leading hotels,
and after the gentleman had drank freely
himself with friend, he concluded the
horse should have some also. He pro-
cured milk pan and put half gallon of
ale in, and the innocent looking animal
drank the contents of the pan as freely as
if ii were SO much water. After he had
finished drinking the ale his owner OBJ
tained two pounds of roasted beefsteak
and gave it to the horse. He consumed
the quantity of steak greedily and SEEM
ed the better for his lunch of beef and ale
His eating and drinking of these things
usually Objectionable to horse, excited
the curiosity of many.

A WELCOME VISIT OF THE RAIN-HEA-

WELCOME VISIT OF THE RAIN-HEA-
Wy THUNDER AND SEVERE LIGHT
MING.
The long continued drouth that was
beginning to arouse an alarm in the
minds of farmers and to work severely
upon the health of people in general, was
broken, last night, by the visit of severe
storm of thunderi and lightning, accom-
panied by drenehing rain. The storm
clouds appeared first in the southern and
western horizon, and were of pale, lead
ell color, suggestive somewhat of an ap-
preaching storm, but they spread very
slowly, and at times almost disappeared,
so that people alternated between hope
and fear for over an hour.
Finally, about quarter past seven
o'clock, brisk breeze sprang up from
the west, and sent huge, black storm
clouds skurrying across to the eastern
horizon. In less than half an hour the
sky was covered with thick rolling clouds
and persons on the streets hurried for
shelter thinking the rain would be upon
them every minute. But still it delayed,
and dpeople were beginning to think the
whole storm would blow over, until
about s o'clock, the welcome rain drops
began to fall. They came slowly at first,
but soon increased in volume, while the
thunder rolled continuously and the play
Of the lightning was vivid and incessant.
For nearly an hour the violence of the
storm continued, after which the thunder
and lig htning considerably subsidized,
though the rain fell in torrents. The
storm continued, with abated violence,
until early this morning, when it cleared
away.
During the early part of the evening,
while the storm was at its height, barn
in North Christiana Hundred was struck
by lightning and entirely consumed. The
affair is reported elsewhere.
Notwithstanding the cooling effects of
the rain upon the atmosphere, last night,
this mornings sun arose hot and scorch-
ing. The air still felt sultry, and the
thermometer at the GAZETTE office
marked $50 at seven o'clock. The grow
ing crops, however, were greatly bene-
fitted by the rain. and for this much the
people will be duly thankful.
