A good joke is passing round. A
young man in town was considered
doubtful by the Republicans and they
reported him as such. He had con-
cluded to vote for Garfield. In due
time he received the Life of Garfield"
by mail. He read it carefully and
prayerfulIy, and now he declares for
Hancock.

A RELIC OF THE WAR.

Yesterday, says the Little Rock Ga
zette, well-dressed man, taking from
his pocket button, remarked;
Rather valuable relic. This but
ton was shot from General Hancock's
coat at the battle of Gettysburg. My
father was on Hancoek's staff, ard he
picked up the button when it fell from
the Generals coat.
Il should think it was valuable"
said the man, examining it. From
Hancock's coat? Well, l declare
What1l you take for it? Excuse rae,
sir. | should not have asked such s.
foolish question.
''No offense, sir. / wouldn't sell the
relic, OF coarse, as it is bound to me by
more than one tie. My father is dead,
and | wouldn't sell it, but j am now in
Strengthened circumstances, and I'm
going to the pawn shop and pawn it. "
Don't do that; let me take it.
Well, loan me five dollars.
The money was handed over, and
after the relic man bad carefully taken
down the address of the capitalist, he
walked out. About FIVE minutes after
wards the clerk in neighboring store
entered and exclaimed: ''See here,
fellers, / reckon I've got the boss relic
"a button shot from General Ham
cocks coat at the battle of Gettys
burg" He then unwrapped a lot of
oil paper from around brass brass
button.
"Where did you get it: ?" asked the
man who had similar curiosity.
II got it from man who picked it
up just after a bullet had clipped it
from Hancock's coat. The poor fellow
had started to the pawn shop. | let
him have ten dollars on it.
"What, no ! boss, . exclaimed another
man, entering the store and holding up
brass button. Heres a relic for
you-shot from General Hancock's coat
! during the"
'Say, there" said man, looking
through the doorway, ''do you fellows
want to see relic Of the late war,
shot"
1--WE got one that'll beat it," said a
man, stopping and fumbling in his vest
pocket.
"Hole on dar," said colored man;
lem me show you de boss curyasity.
Hits button often"
"Oh, you let up" exclaimed several
voices, while the noise of buttons roll
ing on the floor was heard
LESS look for that feller, said the
first victim. "Why, bust my buttons,
somebody must have drawn on Han
cock with double barreled shotgun"
The party went out, when the man
who disposed of the first button found
he had been paid worthless bill, and
the only information learned of him
was that he had just cut the buttons
from an old army coat and started for
the next town.

Of this county will not be driven BY any
threats 1t may make TO do aught which 1t
thinks ough. not to be done. The voters
of this State have been generous In their
l:beralily to tile negroes-they have not
tried to deny them q right to vote,
although there is no legal right in Della
ware statutes emitting negroes to suE
frage, nor has there ever been. And 1t is
folly to talk about resorting to law TO
punish men when the law provides no
punishment. We do rot deny the bal
lot to the negro; but when a jury is
empaneled to try case hey are sworn
to try it according to law and to render
verdict OH the infraction OF the law, as
it stands upon the Statutes. But the
Delaware Statutes make no provision for,
