"Who will como above me signing,

We can't say positively who, but if
the cemetery fence is in the usual repair,
it will probably be the cow.-Hawkeye.

GoyBREoR HALL. Las more than met
tn. appreciation Of public opinion by
the appointment Of JohL R. McFee,
ESQ, Of Gsorgetown, State Commission
er of Insurance Companies. Whatever
merits George II. Bates, Esq. or g. w
S. Nicholson, the other candidates for
the Office may have had, they are fully
met in the appointment of Mr.. McPee.
The latter is a gentleman of much more

a man Of the str!ctest integrity, and
honest and upright in all his dealings

paniss and the people Of the State are
fortunate in having such capable and

Some psrsone appear To think be
cause Rev. J. B. Mann In his address
At the Opera House On Sunday alter
noon, alluded to tho fact that no
body was hung in Delaware for
numbering usgroes, did injury to
Delaware and injured certain aspa-
rant from Delaware for the presidency;
saying if he were that distinguished
citiz.r he wonld leave his seat in the
Senate and Sec hat justice was done to
Perry Dsmby, for nobody will be cleo
! ted President who makes no effort to
have just laws and sees that justice is
meted out alike to white and black
This declaration Of Mr.. Mann operated
upon the "Evsry Evening"" something
like flashing 3 red shirt in the face Of a
bull, and in his virtuous indignation
the editor asks, "What on earth has a
United States Senator to do with the
prosecution Of criminals in DelawareY"
We might answer the question by ask
ing chat has every citizen to DO with
the enforcement Of the lawsi Senator
Bayard (for he is evidently the Senator
alluded to- not excepted. So long
as the distinguished Senator knows
that there Is nobody but negroes hung
in Delaware, while all the white mur-
derers are allowed to escape without
raising his voice and using his innu-
ence against such rank injustice, is
guilty to q certain extent for the exis
tsncs Of such perverted state of 30
ciety. Mr.. Mann means to say that the
people of these United States will new
er elevate a man tc the Presidency who
never raises a voice in favor OF an op-|
pressed race, that il bulldozed out Of
their political rights and executed up
on tn. eallows for every imaginable
capital crime, Will. there is no pre-
tence of hanging white men any more,
though they are guilty Of the most dia'
bolicaI murders. OF course MIR. Mann
knew that he was exposing himself to
the fire of the Every Evening" if he
alluded to Mr.. Bayard disparagingly
in the most remote manner, and he
would DO doubt have been didappoint-
ed had the editor of that paper treated
his remarks with silence.
But after all it seems that the Rev.
Mr.. Pegg committed an unpardonable
sin by intimating that the four young
men now confined in New Castle were
from all appearances guilty of the muir
der Of Perry D-mby, and If guilty they
ought to be hung. Being present at
the meeting We do not recollect OF Mr..
Pegg saying positively that the four
young men at New Castle were guilty
OF the murder Of Perry Demby and
therefore ought to be hung. Mr.. Pegg
is a very cool aud deliberate man and
is not capable of assuming to sit in
judgmrn. upon any one accused Of
capital crime before his trial comes of.
The "Evrry Evening" is a qnihbler,
strainipg at gpats and swallowing
camels, and we will venture to intimate
that the cause Of its bad numor lies in
The fact that Mr.. Mann happened to
allude in crilicising spirit to Senator
Bayard, and Rev. Mr.. Pegg spoke in
wiillering dennnciation OF the rum
traffic. 1t looks as II notLirg plcases

but the alteration of Senator Bayard,

kOme Political Facts.

There are many voters in New Castle
county, who desert their party, change
their politics and embrace the tenets
of the men whom they have derlded
and reproachrd as the workers of in
iquity, and ascribe as a reason for their
action, the corruption that SO frequent
iy il seen in the transactions Of men
entrusted with the government OF q
s:ats or nation. There are compara-
lively few Lowever, who take into con
. iera,ion the absurdity Of this lalt
aerirg to the petty whims OF an
inconstant mind before assuming the
responsibility Of standing before the
world in the guise Of trimmer and a
traitor to party principle. 1t is not
An unfrequent occurrence that mel are
dissatisfied with the regular party nom
inees, and hence desire to support the
opposing candidate or withhold their
votes altogether. 1t certainly would
he much more honorable to refuse to
vote, than vote for the candidates on
the opposite ticket for the sake Of cast
ing ballot. As the sentiment of the
people Of the world is tending towards
Republicanism in its literal sense, it is
not strange that the better class Of
Democrats, should join the party OF
freedom and equal rights but it is
contrary to the laws of nature to see a
man loving liberty and honest govern
ment, proclaiming his allegiance to the
party Of despotism, thraldom and du-
plicity. Unfortunately the country is
burdened with wiseacres who are con-
tinually hsrping on their favorite sub
ject---ths corruption that is in politics;
and they advise young men to discoun-
tenance the science Of government, for
they say that politics lead men astray,
corrupt their morals, and make them
unfit for good society. Was there ever
more senseless advice given by men
Who make pr-tentions to learning and
wisdem Do these men suppose that
the country shall govern itself after the
present generation shall have passed
away! 1t can truly be said that the
science Of government is as free from
blemsh as It was when tho christian
founders Of the Republic laid the fouu-
dations of liberty, and formed the
principles that ara now cherished by
the Republican party, and scorned by
an infamous horde of land pirates, who
prey upon free institutions and the
rights Of Universal suffrage. We hope
that 10 honest Republican will b- found
rejecting the principles Of equal rights,
homes. money, honest government and
liberal education, nor vote for sending
the SCUM Of the earth into the council
chambers and the executive halls of
the nation. The Republican party does
not claim to be composed of saints as
some Democrats would have US believe
concerning their party, but it points
with pride to its banner OF freedom, as
it is spread before the world, with the
words, preservation Of the Union and
liberty and justice to ALL" written in
indellible letters, and bidding welcome
to the oppressed Of the 30 nh, and
the down trolden monarchical ma
tions. This the Democratic party
cannot do without tresspassing upon
the cr-dulity of tn. people who regard
with contempt the pretence to honest
Intentions.

REv. ]. ". ELLIS.
Action of tho Chico Prssbyterians on Receipt
Of His Resignation.

We clip from the Chico Enter
prise, of Nov. 28tb, the following
action of the Presbyterian church
of that place on receipt of the resig-
nation of Rev. ]. w. Ellis, who has
accepted call to take charge of the
Presbyterian congregation of this
city, and who will assume his new
duties on Sunday next:
Last Sunday evening meeting
of the Presb yterian Church and So
ciety was held after the service to
act upon the resignation OF Rev. j
w. Ellis, who has been their pas
tor for the past three years, and
who has received a call from the
Presbyterian church in Los Ange-
les. AT special meeting of the
Trustees held last week, the follow
Ing resignation was received from
Mr.. Ellis:
been called together at the instance
of the pastor of the Chico Presby-
terian Church to consider the ad-
visibility of dissolving the existing
relation between the pastor and
church.
Unsought and unexpected a call
has come to me from the First
Presbyterian Church of Los Ange-
les, Cal. The circumstances which
have governed that church, its
present wants and necessities, and
the lines leading to the call, need
not name, but suffice 1t to say that
1t has been made plain to my mind,
Judgment and conscience that l
should hearken and accept. My
wishes, attended with many re-
grets, is that you call a meeting of
church and congr' cation and rec
ommend that my resignation, as a
pastor, be accepted, to take effect
the first day OF December, A. D..
1879. Affectionatrly,
J. w. ELLIS.
The above was referred to com.
mittee, consisting of Gen. Bidwell,
A. III. Crew and w. Chalmers, who
submitted report recommending
that the resignation be accepted
and also tho following resolutions,
which were adopted:
Rssolved, That the Chico Presby-
terian Church, yielding to the de.
sire and deliberate purpose of their
esteemed Pastor, Rev. j. w. Ellis,
to withdraw to another field OF
Christian labor, do hereby, with
great reluctance and feelings of re-
gret, which sense of duty alone
can overcome, accept his resigna-
tion, and ask the Presbytery to ap-
prove the same.
ResolVed, That this Church and
community accompany their said
Pastor and his family with their
affectionate regard ana their warm
est commentators TO the love and
kind offices of all whom they. may
meet in their new relations with
another Church and wheresoever
Providence may cast their lots.
