from the National Intelligencer.
Anonymous detraction has attempted,
through the federal prints, to inflame the
public sentiment refpeCling the iflue of the
p e laware Election, by the imputation of
charges as unfounded as atrocious. De.
la'.vare is divided into the three counties
0 f Mew-Castle, Kent, and Sussex. In
the tirlt county the republicans have tri
umphed by avast majority j while io the
tvvo last the federalills have had a majori
ty. Accordingly no calumny is too gross
to impute to the former, and no encomi
uin too extravagant to bellow on the lat -
ter . An indecent attempt is made by re
viling the voters of New-Castle, to agitate
t he paflions of Kent and Suflex, and to
deltroy the fublilling harmony between
them and New-Castle. It is (aid that a
large portion of the votes of New-Castle
are illegal and corrupt while all the
votes of Kent and Sullex are averred to
be legal and pure. The former are fa id
to have been fvvclled by aliens and rene
gadoes, regardless of their oaths, and
without charaCler, to obtain whose votes
Iwfe and improper means were used, by
which New-Castle has obtained an undue
political weight, to the deprivation of ihe
other counties of their legitimate ihare.
Let us examine these charges.
In point of general relpeCtability of
character, the county of New-Castle has
been pre-eminent. It is the moll popu
lous, the best informed, and the weaithi
eft county in the Hate. A large portion
of its population conllftsof friends, whose
indufti# and probity are proverbial. By
these remarks it is not meant in the leall
to derogate from the character of the other
counties.
So far then the republicans of Delaware
Hand upon the firmeft ground.
A different view will Ihew in other re
fpeds that they Hand upon ground equally
firm.
The votes given (land thus:
Bayard . Rodney. Total.
New-Castle, 707 1,664 2,371
Kent, 1,162 943 2,105
Suflex, 1,537 844 2.351
6,827
According to the late census, the num
bers of the refpeClive counties, deducting
Haves, Sec.
New-Castle, 23,52 3 .
Kent, 18,069
Suflex, 16,528
58*120
According to the refpeClive numbers of
the counties, had each voted proportion
ally, of the whole number of votes given,
viz. 6,827, w °t have had the
following number of votes;
New-Castle, 2,776
Kent, 2,135
Suflex, 1,916
Had these been the votes given, and
had the majorities and minorities borne
the fume proportion with those of the
votes actually given, the following would
have been the result;
Republican, Fed.
Kew-Caftle, 1,944 832
Kent, 957 1,178
Suflex, 663 1,253
3»564
Republican majority, 301
Thus it appears that the county of
New-Castle, so far from having had in
the late election an undue weight, did not
enjoy that weight to which her numbers
tntitied her. It (hews also that Suflex
enjoyed more than her due weight. If
then charges of unfairnefs and fraud are
made, to whom are they molt applicable ?
To the county whose votes are compara
bly small, or to that county whose
*otes are comparatively great ? It is not
Jlleged that there was fraud or unfairnefs
in either county ; but it is contended that
if they are to he aferibed to either, they
®ay be imputed, with more force, to Kent
l nd Suflex, than to New-Castle county.
Let us then hear no more of these vague
vicious calumnies. Whether they
proceed from infuriate disappointment, or
J nti.republican hatred, they are equally
*nworthy of any one who pretends to the
Aarafttr of a good citizen,
. If unfairnefs or fraud ever pollute the
of fuffrage, let them be proved,
and punilhed ; but let riot the
bndiary of the public peace, because be
15 disappointed, revile the honell exercise
tfthe very right he profeffes to dlecra
«cred,

To the Editors o f the Gazette of the U. S.
Wilmington, Off. 20, 1802.
Sirs—Not redding in Wilmington in
the fumrner season, it was not till yester
day I heard of a paragraph in one of your
papers, flared to be ** an cxtraft of a let
ter from a refpedahle gentleman in Wil
mington,” charging me with holding a
diftriil court for the express purpose of
admitting aliens to citizenlhip, to vote
for the democratic candidate Ctefar Rod
ney. As this is a flagrant impeachment
of the impartiality and integrity of my
condud as a judge, I mud demand your
author.
The imputation is as falfc as it is ma
licious, and it the person had ever been
admitted to my society, he would have
known, that it has long been my fixed o
pinion, that one of the sources of the
evils of our country is, the too easy ad
miflion of foreigners to a participation in
the affairs of our government, and their
interference therein; of course that I
should extremely regret, the fate of any
of our elections being influenced by them,
and particularly that of the date in which
I reside. He raufl also know, that I have
too much charafler at flake, ever to pro
stitute my official situation, to the mean
purposes of party.
Impartiality, will, I presume, induce
you to make this public.
Your humble servant,
GUNNING BEDFORD.
