: "'Well,' said I, 'let Cameron come

Thursday morning Quay came into

'No I replied, 'Cameron didn't come

"Tho Legislature adjourned and tho
members didn't get their money, nnd
I heard nothing moro of it for some
timo. There was
ANOTHER LITTLE ARRAN0MENT
which Don Cameron ond Quay bad
fixed np which if it hud worked nil
right would have afforded them the
means of getting out of this scrapo.
It was this: A bill had been prepared
in room 42,Girard huuse, Philudephia,
by Hob Mackey, M. S. Quay, Don
Cameron ond Sam Moon. It was to
filuco a Stale tax of ono cent per gul
on on every gallon of oil produced in
tho Stato ol Pennsylvania, and aut hor
iso tho Stato Treasurer and Auditor
Geucral to appoint inspectors nnd col
lectors, and thus ed Iho rnntrol ol

allowed a drawback of three-quarters
of a cent on nil oil shipped from Phil
adelphia. Tito ring intended to buy
up all the oil in lbs Stulo nnd ship it
to Philadelphia first, und Ihcnco ship
it lo uny point whore it could bo sold.
This would allow thorn, of courso,
three-quarters of a cent margin on
on every gallon, and -would havo raised
them a million and three-quarters
ovory yenr. Sam Moon was engineer
ing tho thing through, and Tom Scott,
who was then in the west, was but
superficially advised of the naluro of
tho bill, ond was of courso in favor of
it, ns tho Pennsylvania. Central mon

admitted thut he knew hut little ubout

A LITTLE PISCIIER,
ns Sam Moon would term it, fur Col
onel Thomas A. S.eolt. An act hail
been passed during the Inst session
known ns tho low grade bill, which
authorised Iho Allegheny Valley rail,
reatl company lo take out of llie treas
ury tho bonds of the Philadelphia nnd
Erie railroad company and replace them
with tho builds ol their own company,

that they had learned nothing by their

whatever, ile accordingly failed upon
mo a, few days nftcr the .adjournment
of the legislature, and opened the con
versation in uouut tins wuv :
. "You 'refused to lake my advice on

want you to do is just to h avo these

after you havo made the transfer thore

"'I don't soe what connection this
has wilh yoor talk just now of the
treaty of peaco between the Camerons
and myself,' I roplied... 'What have
you to do with those bonds what is
your object?' . .
HOW THE LITTLE PINCH ER WAS TO IINCU.
, "'Well,' said Quay, 'I tell vou frank
ly just whut wo want. You know
that Tom Scott has gono back on Don
Cumeron in two things lately.' IIo
has repudiated bis engagements in re
gard lo tho money it look to put John

Mr. Scolt wants to get bis bonds, lie

'I replied Ihitt I didn't want lo tuko
any riK, ana mm I certainly would
not inuke tho transfer unless tho At
torney General gave a favorable opin
ion in regard to '.ho constitutionality
of tho net authorizing it. Quay loll,
feeling that he bud i li'oclod bis object,
and so reported lo Don Cumeron, and
Iho ring felt perfectly certain thut
they would soon havo Colonel Scott
between their thumb nnd fingers.
Cut I thought I would have a finger
in that pio just for tho fun of llie thing.
"Colonel Scott ond I havo always
oeen on ll.o most incnuiy terms, nnd
1 did not intend to seo him bled by
lliCKO sharks. I accordingly sent a
dispatch to Colonel Scott and one also
to Mr. William Phillips, tho President
of tho Allegheny Valley railroad, tel

Mr. Phillips posted to Philadelphia..

to a chnrm, and a week ( r ten days
beforo tho expiration of my term us
treasurer evory thing bad been arrang
ed and the Hoods were trauslerred in
duo form lo tlio Allegheny Valley rail
road. It wus all dono so quietly and
so neatly that neither Quay nor the
Camcr jiis suspected what was going
on, although Don Cameron wus Presi
dent ot the Northern Ceutrul ruilroad
and was required to sign a guurantee
oi the nor.ds.
A PROFANE CAMERONI AN.
"On the morning of tho 1st of May,
when the trensnry was lo bo handed
ovr to Mr. Mackey, Quay camo into
my ollico und entered inlo conversa
tion with Mr. Taggurt, tho cashier.
After tulljing n few moments, ho said:
'lly the way, Taggnrt, bus anything
oeen nono ubout tlieso Allegheny rail
road bonds ' . 'O, yos,' said Tuggarl.
What has been dono?' anxiouslv
queried Quay. 'They havo been truus-
lorroov 1 ho Ii I they havo r cx
claimed Quay. 'When was it dono?'
'About ten days ago.' 'Well, I'll be
d d 1' said Quuy, 'if Irwin isn't tho
biggest lunkhead I ever saw. Don
Cameron Would havo given him ffiO,
0UU if ho had let that little job alone,
und I told him fo. He never will learn
sense,' and rushed out of tho building
nnd posted down to tho Northern
Central railro.nl olliee to tell Don
Cameron this last greu mi-ifortunc
which had befallen them and destroyed
all their hopes.
"Just how Cameron nunlo a rniso or
how they arranged it wilh tho cheated

as lliey hud a fight the next spring

lieving that tho mailer wus fixed up

Well known that Mackey was defeated
in 1S70 by a coalition of billing Re

Radicalism in South Carolina A
Frightful State of Things.
Ourdesputches from Colurabia.Sonth
Carolina, show thut the Stato is in us
bad a condition politically us it is
financially, if not in a worse. It bus
been plundered in the most barefaced
way. by the curpcl-bag rascals and
their negro allies, and a debt has been
piled up that staggers tho people by
its weight. ' There is nothing com
parable in the history of this county
lo tne flagrant rouiiory and ubnso ot,
power by the Radical authorities there.
And now, when llie timo bad come
thut tho respectable portion of tho
community hoped to find a remedy for
the evil through the regular Conven
tion of tho dominant party and a
chango of rulers, Iho robbers havo
overwhelmed tho reformers. Hy pis
tols, bribery and vociferous clamor
they nominated a most unscrupulous
butch of plunderers for nil tho highest
offices in the Stato. So outrageous
was tho conduct of tho Convention
and such terrorism was exhibited that
the best men of tho Radical Republi
can parly wero glad to escape from
tho Statu . House to tave themselves
from serious personal injury. Revol
vers wero drawn, chairs wero raised
over tho shoulders of members, ready
to strike, and bo. Ham sjemed to bo let
loose. Il is really a wonder there was
not a general riot and much bloodshed.
James L. Orr, United Stales Senator
Sawyer, District Attorney Corbin, and
others finally called a separate Con
vention ; Hut they represent only a
minority or faction of the party. The
majority appear to go w ith tho carpet
hag plunderers. This is tho old story
of negro government. History is re
pealed. Whenever llio i.cgiT.es havo

w here the blacks having political pow
er havo out-numbered Iho whiles, or
where n few knavish whites have used
the blacks lo ride into power. This
Bhpuld bo a solemn lesson for ns, but
it seems our politicians will not heed
tho teaching ot biBtory. Unless tho
Radical Republican purty be split asun
der nnd a pnrt of tho negroes should
have tlio good senso lo go with tho
