"a shaMsiess Mate Prostitute.

Iuo ERoTy EVohlnR III speehiuk
of the tender by Secretary Evarts to
Mr.. Whitelaw Reid, editor of the =" N.
Y. Tribune" of the position of Minis
aer to Berlin, uses the following Ian
,guage: We are glad that the most
'sham-less prostitute Of the male sex
'onr land has ever produced is not to
represent us at the greatest coart OF
Europe, aud as the successor of the
honorable and honored Bayard Taylor"
Mr.. Whitelaw Reid is quite we'll able
TO defend himself, If defenr,- we're need
ed against the violent words of an OBJ
scure slanderer, whose chief notoriety
lie in the abusive slandering of almost
: every ono except the small number Of
those to whom for the time being, he
may he toadving. But considering
who the Elitor of the Every Evening"
~, and was, and the position he has
cnossn to take for himself before the
u community We are constrained to say,
that for him to charge anybody else
with being shameless male prosti-
tutp," is the coolest and finest piece of
impudence we have seen for some time,
even from him.
The editor of the every Evening"
began his editorial career by publish
ing Republican party newspaper in
GeOrgetown. Afterwards he was asso.
ciated in editing the Wilmington Daily
ly COMMERCIAL" Republican party
ne wspaper. In the conduct of both of
these papers he was furiously partisan,
for he Is nothing il not always furious
He LIT the Commercial to start the
livery Evening"" all ostensiby inde-
pendent or non partisan paper. For
while he maintained such course in
the Every Evening"" if to abuse
every body on both sides and in both
parties quite impartially, makes one
independent and non partisan. But for
4 long time back, even this veneer
Jag of assumed independence no longer
serves to conceal the fact that the
''Rvery Evening" is a Democratic pa
per and its editor a Democrat.
Whatever may be the ingredients and
elements which go to make up the res
ultant known as a modern Delaware
"Democrat," without doubt he is it.
He would deny TO the United States
ali power to protect the citizens of its
own creation in their right to vote at
elections OF Federal officers, and he
calls the demand of the people that the
General Government should exercise
such u power of protection "the stirring
up of str.y among ones own country
men."
He claims for the respective states,
the exclusive control of the elective
franchise, or in other words that the
Sta.es, 'aely in rebellion should b.
nanded over to majority Of white
voters with a majority Of their citizens
bound haLd and foot in the grasp Of
violence, murder and fraud, more mer
giles aud uuscrupulous than the bonds
of slavery itself. AID even in Della
ware, lie urges GENT" compliance with
Dem ,cratc rule, that the people of this
county. under the minority rul. Of Kent
and Sussex shall mpekly and humbly |
