.lIessrs Editors-You will doubtless learn with
pleasure, the result OF the election in Kent County,
this wear. The Democratic Ticket has triumphed
and the federal dienasty (dynasty) is PROSTATE,
hope, forever Without the aid OF inspiration, this
thing has been clearly foreseen and predicted, for
years; and all cool aad impartial men could no, do
otherwise than discover, that if the democratic
party should cease to oppose there must necessarily
arise from among the pretended fsderalists them
selves, power which must sooner or later over
turn he ar,socratic fabric.


Ii has been said that it is not magnanimous to
exuli over PROSTATE foe But surely those who
have suffered by the ignorance, presumption and
arrogance of tyrannical set Of Office holders and
office hunters may be permitted to rejoice at the
downfall Of such power, without incurrlng cen
sure.


Not only democrats, but .jederalists who have not


had the meanncss to awn at the feet OF power, and
humbly acquiesce in the decisions Of these self
created rulers, have felt the venge!ul ire OF their
wrath, indignation and malice. No terms were too
Aard--no reproaches too unust--nor no eplthets
TOO ignorninoUs for these men 10 heap en- the
names Of their opposers. No means were Lett un.
employed, to iniurc them in their purses, their
reputation, or their feelings. Such are the men
who have seen the power pass from their hands,
alter making every exertion, and abricating every
alsehood their ingenuity could devise, for The pur-
pose of protracting their reign.


Now let the democrats act harmononsly and
wisely let them repeal the obnoxious laws which
grind and oppress the people. Let them explode
he system which makes distinction between the
rich and the poor; let men Of character be eligible


10 the subordinate Offices, without the necessity OF
owning certain quantnm Of dirt, Gland J and lei
ihe Government Of Delaware be administered on
"epabtlcan principles.


OF federalism as it is called, the Lord knows we
had. .c.s IN tavsra hy
repeating the acts which bear their insignia, and en-
acting such as will ensure to every man, the prI.
'ileee of his rights; and arrisocracy mus. skulk
again into The regions of darkness, whence it first
issued.
