Col. SAMUEL TowsEND :-Dea,
Sri saw your answer to my let.
ter in the DELAWARE GAZETTE, and
heard hard-money, bond-worship
ing Democrat discussing your an
swer, and said he did not think much
of General jackson; that he was a
tyrant. l have no doubt that the
friends of the old United States
Bank and the gold-worshiping Shy.
locks of his day did so think, and il
we had a man to-day at the head of
affairs of his calibre these hard
money Shylocks of to-day would say
the same. You truthfully said that
'eternal vigilance is the price of
liberty" How do you account then
for these great designing rascals get
ting into the Democratic party, that
is now making hard-money platforms
for soft-money Democrats to vote for
the interest of Wall street bankers
and bondholders. suppose we
were not on the watch tower of lib
erty when these great rascals crawled
in, or else we are the dupes of mis-
placed confidence. l know about IL
years ago it was unanimously said
by the Democrats of this State that
the bonded debt of this country
would bankrupt the people. Now,
when their predictions are about to
be verified, they say we are on the
high road to prosperity. All l have
to say is, Lord deliver me and my
posterity from just such prosperity,
for it is prosperity for the bond
holders, national bankers and Shy
locks, and only degradation to the
masses of the people. Dear Colonel,
you seem to be pretty hard on John
G. Calhoun, the illustrious states
man. In my quoting him 1 had
reference to his financial principles
and teachings, and as for his States
rights doctrine, l see the Western
Democracy twhat little there is left
OF it, is beginning to clamor for the
same principles, as they begin to see
the star of their liberties diminish
ing. 1 must confess that States
rights is the only cornerstone left of
the present Democracy to go before
the people of this State for their suf-
frages, and the reason why it is SO,
is that the gold-devouring angel has
traduced the democracy of this State,
and this gold-devouring angel is
worse than all the black angels l
ever read of, for 1 never saw one.
And as l claim there should be
great reformation from the said
angel, and if l understand you right,
you think the same, and that the only
difference is in the method of accom-
plishment, so you and your friends
keep up an internal fire on the
enemy, and the bond busters,
national bank smashers and myself
will keep up an external lombard
ment, and whenever either of us sub
dues the hydra-headed bond monster
first let the other know it, and we
will meet in Dover and have a great
handshaking and big OK roast.
Yours respectfully,
III. W. LONG.

TO-Day's Convention.

PROSPECTS OF EITHER LIVELY ROW
OR SOME WELL CREASED MACHINE
WORK.
This afternoon, in Dover, at two o..
clock, Mr.. Henry F. Pickels, of this
city, will call the Republican State
Convention to order and the hopeless
task of carrying Delaware, which the
Republican party abandoned two years
ago will be again commenced. The
work of the Convention will either 20
along with the utmost smoothness, or
wind up in terrible wrangle. Mr..
Pickels has apparently prepared for
some well-greased machine operations
as he will not call the Convention to-
gether until two o'clock, and the up
train, on which the Wilmington dele
CATION will come home, leaves about
4:3O o'clock. This leaves only about
two hours for the work of the COnveri-
ton, which time, however, will be am.
pie II the county caucuses prove har-
monious and the machine plans are
not kicked against in The open session.
The plan of operations il to send an
unlnstructed, though u strong Blaine,
delegation to Chicago. but the instruc
tons will be given, if deemed neces-
sary by the Blaine men for the success
of their plans. They will control the
Convention, but for all that thew feel
the need of keeping their eyes open as
there are several sharp Sherman men
among the delegates, Mr.. Pickles him
self being classed in this category.
Grant delegates will also be found in
the Convention, and if any favorable
opportunity presents itself, the Blaine
men will be given lively struggle for
supremacy and control.
SO far a. is known there will be but
one contest before the Convention
that OF the Tenth ward delegates. In
this ward Dan Stewart put up ticket
headed by himself, which knocked the
life out of the regular or Blaine ticket.
The latter claim that Dams ticket was
not nominated in accordance with par
ty usuage, and ON this ground they
will go before the Convention and
claim seats, although they are in the
minority 50 far as representing the
ward is concerned.
DIR. Welch and his Greenback friends
will also hold State Convention in
Dover, to-day, to nominate delegates
to the National Greenback Labor Con
vention to be held in Chicago in June.
The Doctor had his Convention called
first and MIR. Pickles followed by call.
ing his on the same day. Whether or
not coalition was designed by the
latter is not known, but the Doctor
says the Greenbackers will not unite
worth cent. He claims his party can
control the opposition to the Republi-
can party in Sussex county, and will
not lose their State identity by uniting
tue Republicans in the other counties.

Logan returned from his last trip TO IL

Grant leaders, at which Logan stated
the danger of defeat which threatened
Grant in Illinois, and said that Farwell
was working for Blaine with tremen-
dous energy. aud something ought to be
done; that Cameron suggested at that
time that Logan ought to return TO H.
the Illinois Convention should be car
ried solid, If possible, and, at any rate,
should be Instructed for Grant, and that
Illinois, with Pennsylvania and New

Deglns to be discussed among some OF

more than he can chew" in this third
term business in Pennsylvania. He
was warned by prudent friends SO long
ago as last February that he was strain.
ing oofh his power and the devotion OF
ms friends and of his fathers friends by
his stubborn adhesion to the third term
business. At Harrisburg he had mar
row escape from defeat and carried the
Conven ion by small majority ouly by
the most earnest personal appeals TO
men who were opposed to the third term
10 stand by him in the struggle, because
II he was beaten he was ruined. 1t was
by such appeals that he carried the day
In the Cont entiOn and the immediate
result was revolt among the repu blic-
an votes OF the State, which showed
him long ago that he was opposing the
popular sentiment of his party. Since
then, and within the last four or five
weeks, he has been visited several times
by Pennsylvania politicians who would
like to adhere to his fortunes and who
mean to do so as long as they can, but
VINO came to warn him that the set Of
the tide was very strong and that he would
greatly oblige his friends If he would
give up what they felt was too big an
undertaking, the cramming ofthe third
term down the throats of the Pennsyl-
vania republicans.
TEMPORARILY TEMPoRIzING.
Until recently Mr.. Cameron is under
stood to have good naturedly temporiz-
ed with these advisers. He Las held out
hopes to them that he might not prove
obdurate, and he has repeatedly said
that If he saw that the ex-Presideat was
not acceptable to the party he would cast
the vote of Pennsylvania soldly for Mr..
Blaine. Just row, however, he is report
ed to have lost his temper; the signs Of
revolt have become so abundant that he
is at once alarmed and irritated. 1t is
probable that he begins TO see what 9th
er Pennsylvanians here see plainly,
that the revolt which was at first only
against the third term promises to turn
against himse unless he can either
crush it or conciiate the mutineers. Men
more familiar with Pennsylvania then
you correspondent are ordering wheth-
er the youngCameron willshow the same
astute tact which always enabled his
father to succeed, by obeying the popu-
lar will If he could lot control 1t or
whether, as some people think more pro-
bable, he will go down with the ship.
