The Democrats of Connecticut hoped
to have the help of some campaign
speeches from Ex-Governor Waller,
one of the most popular men in the
State, but they have been disappointed.
Mr.. Waller, who is consul General az
London, is home on leave of abscense.
When he applied for the leave he ex-
plained, that he did not intend to take
part in the political canvass and when
asked to take the stump said that he
could not do so without the consent of
the Department of State. He wrote
to the Department on the subject and
received this reply:
81 have no hesitation in saying, as
the view of the department, that it is
not considered proper for consular
officers while on leave of absence in
the United States to take any active
part in political canvass, and I en-
tirely concur in the opinions expressed
by you upon the subject. 1t is hoped,
therefore, that you will adhere to the
determination you have already express
sed. It has been and is the purpose
of the President to give the people of
the United States an honest and just
administration, and to leave them free
at the end Of his term to express them
selves for or against the records so
made without official interference or
instruction.
Things have changed since former
campaigns. when half of our leading
diplomatic and consular representa-
tives used to come home to stump
their States for the administration

ALvAN ALLEN, ESQ.,, of Whining
ton. DEL, is the Democratic candidate
for Sheriff Of New Castle county. A
very brief acquaintance with this gen.
tleman leads lis to believe that in his
election the county will go great
way beyond their usual wisdom in the
selection of fitting incumbents for this
responsible Office. We are more than
favorably impressed with Mr.. Aliens
personality, in fact we intend it as a
compliment to him, when we say he
does not look like a Sheriff he could
sell our property and still be our friend.
We predict that Mr.. Allen will, if he
does not lead the ticket, be found well
up in the race. We also predict that
he will make model Sheriff, and feel
that we can safely recommend him to
all Democrats, for their votes.

plished something. This week we

LITTLE or nothing has been
said or done by the press of
New Castle county, looking to the
success of our county ticket. Whether
this is the result of an overweening
confidence in the righteousness of our
cause, or the conceded adm irable
qualifications of the gentlemen compos-
ing our county ticket, we know not !;
but we think it due the party and the
ticket to speak a good word for our
candidates, and ask for them at this
time, the united support of this hun
dred, dropping all factional differences,
sinking them, so to speak, in the gen.
eral desire for party success. Whether
this may seem consistent with politics
from an independent point of view or
no, we will not now determine. All
we can say is, that we see no particu-
lar danger staring US in the face from
a continuation of Democratic rule in
this State, nor any the slightest prom
Use of better things from our friends,
the Republicans. Therefore as Demo-
Gratis, we propose to support the whole
ticket and earnestly call on all who
have hitherto called themselves such
to do likewise. We would have liked
to have seen our legislative ticket
nominated on the pledge Of constitu-
tional reform, but beyond few promi-
ses, not in any sense binding, there is
little to be hoped for on this score, and
we are put to the choice of deserting
our party. because it fails in one
particular, and supporting another, no
better in this sense-or Of standing by
our party, clearly the better in all other
things. We infinitely prefer the latter.
Let every Democrat in st. Georges
Hundred do likewise.

only difference being that, whether
the Tariff is tax, as the BoWery Ear
