Eleven years ago young Frenchman,.

publican. fell in love with the daughter
of an Imperialist, and rs the father of the
girl refused his consent to the marriage
the young couple determined TO commit
suicide. They repaired to q small town
near Paris. and Gilbert, after shooting
his betrothed, attempted to blow his own
brains out. In neither case did the wounds
prove mortal, and the war breaking
out soon afterward, Gilbert was not pros
ecuted, as he had left Paris, to serve IN
the Army of the Loire. He returned to
Paris at the outbreak of the Commune,
served in the National Gaufd, was made
prisoner when the Versailles troops en-

Mr.. Edward Hamilton, of the Grand

The Political HOrOscODe,

One Of the leading questions which
will be before the people of Delaware
in the approaching campaign to decide,
is whether the present DISTINGUISHING
assessment laws are to be tolerated
longer-whether another turn of the
DISTINGUISHING screw is to be made by a
Democratic Legislature or whether a
law providing tor an easy assessment of
voters and an easy and sensible collec.
tion of taxes shall be provided for by a
lspubliCan Legislature. Are our taxes
longer to be collected as revenue for
the State, or to be made political en-
g ne to be used in the acknowledgements
OF large portion Of the opposite party
in politics? Ever since 1872 the Demo-
Gratis have been amending and tinker
ing at the assessment laws, not tor the
purpose of aiding the voter in casting
an honest ballot, but to prevent him
from voting entirely if he was a Re-
ljpW VIGIL uIIty nave Sutfbtutt
is well known. Thousands of distran.
ciised Republicans can attest to the
effect of the Gisfranchisement laws
falsely called assessment laws. But
at last the Democracy stand appalled,
at the iniquity Of their own doings.
Before them stands party intact that
threatens to engulph them. 1t has be-
come schooled to adversely, wrong and
outrage, and seems to have increased
in mum Der according to the severity OF
the prosecutions with which it has been |
inflicted. 1t demands recognition and |
intends to have it. Conscious in the !
integrity of its motives it challenges !
the worst that can be done against. !
We are not surprised that the political
tyrants who have ruled Delaware with
rod of iron are alarmed. In New |
Castle County they find solid phalanx
Of Republican voters that demand their
rights SO long denied them, and which |
they expect to have in the near future.
In Kent county the Democratic lash
has lost its terror and is even defed to
do its worst. In Sussex the battle tor
popular rights is about to result in a
grand victory. The State is about to
be redeemed, and this is what strikes
terror to the Democratic heart. The
day of retribution is near at hand,
when all Democrats will be allowed to
cast but one vote and Republicans will

WE WOULD SUGGEST to the Demo.
Gratis of the Levy Court that they pre-
pare a schedule of questions to be asked
to every voucher who presumes to come
forward and vouch fer voter. Amongst
the questions should be the following,
"Did you ever tell lie ." Did you
ever say mill-dam % "Did you ever
darn stocking 2" care you fond OF
chickens?" 800 you like popcorn %
If the voucher cannot prove his re
specta dIity by answering these ques
tions in the negative, he may expect to
be turned under. Well, well, this is a
new kink in Acknowledgement. Who
ever thought the Levy Court would
become the Standard judge of morals
and responsibility. Such moral court
should net do business another day
without the services of a chaplain.

THERE ARE MANY sincere friends of
Col. Tom Ford who will regret that he
has withdrawn as a candidate for the
Democratic nomination for sheriff.
There is no doubt more money in con.
tracing and building to Mr.. Ford than
there is in making himself target for
his party to shoot at and knock down,
for Col, Ford knows full we'll that his
party wonld not nominate him, and if
they did, they would not permit him
to be elected. H. G. Turner, ESQ, and
Martin Farrell had bitter draught
from that cup and it is unreasonable to
suppose that it would be any sweeter
for Col. Ford. We do not know that
this had anything to do with Mr.. Ford's
declination, but whether it had or had
not, he might as well settle down to the
conclusion that the Sheritl's Office is

longing to his wing of the party to

Unless executive ClemenCy is inter

gan viii forfeit his life upon the gal.
lows on Friday next, for the murder OF
Dennis shea. Governor Hall has been
applied TO on several occasions to in
terpose III behalf OF the condemned man
and grant him at least a reprieve until
he (the Governor) can fully satisfy his
mind in regard to the truth OF what Is
said to be newly discovered evidence,
which would have prevented a convic-
ton, had it been brought before the
Jury at the Trial. The largest and most
influential of these delegations waited
upon the Governor yesterday, and al
though he was evidently touched with
the fervenG and sincere plea in behalf
of the doomed man, there is no certain
ty that he will either pardon or re;
prieve There we're men yesterday who
besought the Governor with tears in
their eyes for a reprieve for Harrigan,
who only short time ago believed him
guilty of the crime in the fullest sense
for which he was convicted and SEN
fenced. To say that very great change
has taken place in the minds Of the
people in regard to his real guilt is
not stretching the truth Enough ad-
ditional evidence is said to be found TO
at least create doubt, of which the
condemned should have the benefit.
We have no special plea to enter for
Jerry Harrigan more than we would
for any other condemned man in the
same position. 1t must be an awful
thing to face the gallows, especially
when there is the least doubt of guilt
The life of a man can be easily taken,
but cannot be given back again to the
inanimate form from which it departed
Is Harrigan really guilty? A jury and
the law say 30, but neither is infallibe

eating circumstance? Is it true that
the woman he had taken for his wife
was untrue to her marriage vows, and
is it true that Dennis Shea was the
man who destroyed his happiness and
caused the lingering fires of jealousy
which ranked in his heart to burst into
an uncomfortable flame? There were
men who knew all the parties who had
no hesitation in saying that after dis
covered evidence convinced them that
Shea Was seducer. Had this been
fully made out and proven at the trial
could jury in New Castle County
have been found that would have con
victed Harrigan? But it was said at
the trial and many times since that
Harrigan was a bad man any how and
the community was well rid of him.
What has that to do with the crime
with which he is charged ? What has
that to do with the case? Harrigan
was not tried for general badness, but
for specific crime. Reputable citizens
have been guilty of the same crime and
through their responsibility have es-
capped the extreme penalty attached to
their crimes. Because Jerry Harri ga
has not hat responsibility to fall back

cause he had no friends? Look at it
As we will, it is case that excites sym.

THE DEMOCRATS of the Levy Court
gave the DISTINGUISHING screw of the
party little twist more yesterday
when twenty-four colored citizens from
St. Georges Hundred applied to be put
on the assessment. They not only re
ouired that the voucher who accom-
panied them should be freeholder, but
that he should be a respectable" free
holder, and in order to prove that he
was not respectable, Clerk Cochran
was called upon to tell what he heard
somebody say about the voucher, whose
name was Downs. Mr.. Cochran did
not know anything himself against
Downs, but he was certain he heard a
cousin of his say that he caught Downs
stealing corn, and to make sure of it he
asked Downs if he had not been guilty
of that disreputabe and disrespectful
act. Downs, to the great surprise of the
clerk, said that he never stole any corn.
Mr.. Cochran is Clerk of the Peace of
New Castle county and of course
has charge of the records of the Court
but it never occurred to him that the
place to get evidence of Downs awful
character was from the records of the
Court. We have always been told that
man accused of a crime must be
looked upon as innocent until he has
been convicted of the crime with which
he was charged; but according to the
action of the Levy Court mere sus-
picion or floating report against the
character of a man mustdeprive him of
exercising certain rights and immu'
mites of citizenship. This smacks of
South Carolina BourbOnism.
