The Levy Court.
YEsTERDAY--A SUPER
VISOR sNUBBED.

r,. VISOR sNUBBED.
The Levy Court closed It's March
session at New Castle, yesterday, and
assessed every one waiting for this OBJ
ject. y,
A number of Republican Supervi-
sors came over on the noon train, and
took seats in the court room. They
were under the leadership of Bob
Fraim, who held conspicuously in his
hand a bundle of papers, prepared by
Republican canvassers, and containing
a number of names placed on the as
sessrnent lists by the Assessors, but
which the Republicans claimed should
be stricken off, on the ground Of hav-
ing been returned as delinquents year
ago. -a+ -
About A 80 o'clock, all in waiting
had been assessed, and President
Bright asked If there was any further
business to come before the body. A
slight pause followed, and then Mr..
Fraim arose, and began to make an
address to the Court. sas a United
States Supervisor of Registration. y
Here Mr.. Wells arose and made a mo-
tion to adjourn, which President
Bright promptly put before the Court,
at the same time informing Mr.. Fraim
that if he addressed the Court as
citizen of New Castle County he would
be heard, but the Court had nothing to
do with United States Supervisors.--
The motion to adjourn prevailed. "a
Surprised and astonished, Mr.. Fraim
stood irresolute for an instant, and
then walking up to the Clerks desk
laid his bundle of papers thereon
The Clerk paid no attention to them,
and for aught known to the contrary,
they still lie on the desk.
Some Republicans are very indig-
nant at this action ON the part Of the
Court, and threaten to have all the
members arrested and tried under the
United States laws. ...i, .

HISTORY is now doing what the veno-
nous tongues and pens of inscriptions
politicians so long refused to do-vindica-
ting the military career of General McClel-
Ian. The careful and intelligent historian,
George Ticknor Curtis, now comes to the
front in the North American Review, and
declares that every move made by the Gen
cral, up to the receipt of Halleck's order to
advance, had received the entire approval
of President Lincoln, who at all times en-
tertained the highest respect and admira-
ton for McClellan's military genius The
order to advance was the result Of political
pressure which the president was unable to
resist. 1t was intended to blast McClel-
lan's presidential prospects, and in the
achievement of that end, the lives of twenty
thousand men were held as nothing.

him, the ball taking effect in his head, in

THE clause in the appropriation bill re,

appear to fully satisfy either party, and
strong effort will be made to defeat it in the
senate. The Republicans ridicule Garfield
a good deal for having, as they say, stepped
into the trap prepared for him by the Dem

finally retreated but not in time TO save
himself from much annoying criticism.

THE MAN FOR THE EMERGENCY

IHE MAN FUN HE ENEhuE-NCl
When, some weeks since, we announced
as our first choice for the Democratic nomi-
nation for President, the mans Of Hon.
William X. Morrison, we drew upon our
selves the stingless sneers of some OF our
small fry contemporaries, whose line OF
vision was like that Of drill-sergcant, so
elevated that nothing was visible within
blank range. The comments Of the great
metropolitan journals, the Washington dis
patches and correspondence, and the inter
views with distinguished political leaders,
since then published, all show that we but
voiced strong public sentiment, which
needed only expression to show its potency.
All this, whilst very fattenng to Col,
Morrison, means more than a mere personal
compliment. His personal character and
public record are not only open to
examination but invite scrutiny, and
the more thorough such examination is, the
more thorough is respect for the man, and
confidence in his adaptabilty to the needs
Of the hour, established.
His record establishes his fitness to inves.
tigate fraud and his instructive detection Of
it under whatever specious pretense II is
covered. He has shown himself Jealous
guardian, not only Of the peoples money,
but what IS of more moment, their nights
and liberty. His career has been excep-
tionally free from the enmities and eal.
ousies usually provoked by success, and
those who formerly opposed him on par
tisan grounds, respect him, acknowledge bis
ability and lncorruptibility to an extent
mucn greater than those are generally &C
knowledged by political enemies.
As citizen, soldier and public servant
whether in the post of honor or the private
station" his fidelity, eminent capacity and
unimpeachable integrity have always heer
manifest. His modesty would have forbid
den suggestion from himself that there
are either fitness or propriety in his being
brought berore the public This very mod
esty is one Of his best qualifications. II,
has nobody to reward for favors received
and none to punish for their negligence
If the convention shall be abb,
to rise TO the dignity of the occasion ant
can distinguish between real popular wisl
and an employed claque by placing Col
Morrison a, the head Of the ticket, we ar
satisfied he would carry not only the state
now regarded as doubtful, but would re
deem his own state and place it where
belongs, in the file Of Democratic states.
