Near Seven Star Tavern
"I
March 18, 187G,
.Vy Dear .Vr. Editor: I guess this
Saturday oght up at Miffiintowc is like
it is down here among tbe bills, cold,
windy, wintry, ao that ono almost feels
that the aeison hat got turned wrong
end foremost ; that it is winter coming
in now when it should have come iu last
fall, and aa I walked sbiveting to and
from the Stars, 1 couldn't help feeln.g
quite lively for tbe fellows who are out
sparking their girls, and will have to
trudge home in tbo crisp air about mid
night. "Jupiter!" but won't they
shiver! If it don't chill their love it
must be strong ; but tbe fact is that
when a fellow tumbles into love, these
bad nights kind o' strengthen it. There
is a natural relationship between the
bluster of a night like this and the
daring that seeks the band of a maiden,
or any other kind of a good woman.
The consciousness that a fellow is brav
ing all the storm with iu North Pole
sting, aod bearing patiently, and yet
wtth thrilling feeling the sbieking of
tbe wind, for sosne fair one who is wait
ing with lova-lit eyes, and eager ears
for bis coming, lends a heroic charm to
it all on a night like this. In all of
Andy Jackson's cottrtings there was
something of the heroic manifestation.
lie courted in a heroic spirit, be do-
fended heroically, indeed the beroio
side of Andy was the larger part of
the man, and the heroio political acts
of bis life are what endeared htm to
the dead Democratic party.
The folks that were assembled at the
Stars this evening were as cold and
chilly as the blasts of stoim that
shrieked through the pines in the woods
near by, and whistled and kept up a
thousand confused sounds around tbe
corners of the house and buildings
hereabouts. You see it's the effect of
another storm that haa rolled np from
Washington since I wrote yon last Sat
urday night, in regard to the tertimooy
of the Democratio High Priest, George
H. Pendledon, of Ohio, given before
Cly tuer'a committee. There was a eold,
death-like chill about that storm. There
was death in it to tbe kind of farce that
Pendleton had built np for himself.
Yon know he has been a pet eandidate
for the Presidency in the woulJ-be
Jackson party. Pendleton bad fame,
but it was bf the meaner sort ; it was
of tbe sharp business kind, and not of
the heroic fame that protects women and
ennobles the race, such as of the Andy
Jackson strife. Seme old wise Greek,
long ago, even. wiser than eld Andy
I believe it was Socrates prououoced
genuine fame to be, " the perfume of
h'ofoii action." Shades of departed
betoes,ow the fame of the Pendle
ton vanish, when from the depths a
comparison is coojured up. Tbey could
bardly believe it at the Stars that Pen
dleton bad fallen alongside of Belknap.
Many of my old party friends expected
to vote for him as the next Democratic
eandidate for the Presidency, but now;
that his work has been of such an tin
heroic and mean kind, the deepest dis
gust is felt for him. . Tie bad cut ctlch
a swell, and kind of looked down tin
people who didn't swell like him, that
folks who like show and don't know
that there is nothing in it, that it is like
tinkling brass, were . kind o' blinded
with the vulgar pretensions of the fel
low, and believed that there Was some
thing good in him; Since reading his
testimony tbey say he is only a blather
kii, butterfly, a cod Gab aristocrat,
and the goodues's knows what all, and
the putting of bim in bis true colors
before the country has dons more to
cripple tbe Democratic party than even
the work of Belknsp and Marsh, and
the exposure of the two last named,
you know, gave New Hampshire to tbe
Republicans with a cleaner sweep than
for ten years past. Everything is Re
publican there now by a larger majority
than at any time since the war. If
they bad got Pendleton's testimony a
few days before the election, tbe very
foundations of the false Jscksoniao
Democracy would have bsen swept
away. How Old Hickory detested
such people.
There is no telling bo many people
Pendleton has spoiled, and it is ths
most probable thing in this nether
world that Belknap, and his two wives
and Marsh thrown in, and all Others in
that ring are victims of his, if not di
rectly, then indirectly, for by bit testi
mony, if I art correctly read in it, all
the people just mentioned engaged in
crooked ways alter bis example or m-,
tercourse with them through the B owler j debauci,ery. Is it any wonder that the
estate. 1 believe 1 said in my letter j lWQ wWe of Belkoap mcted ,0 Aa n
last week that in nine eases in ten of a I tLe ,lle of ,ie r0st.,r..(;cr.t1ir., ; Con
man and a woman," where there ii jjaDeuon -with their husband. They
wrong, tbe man is to blame. That is, both ,carned .he Mm. leMon from the
tug muiui'uj ui v j gvuo USJ a -1
the testimony of Old Hickory, and if
yon read tbe testimony of to day it will
tell you the f amo thing unmistakably.
It is just what the testimony of Pen
dleton tells to this country, reeling in
ahia$ement at the mass of corruption
that is floating to the top in ' business
aud tffieial life. Isn't he a nice man
for fame ! Wouldn't be be a nice fel
low lor the country to bave in the
Wbito Uotiset If the man hadn't been
0 lull of pretension, self righieou?."
sanstified,' the effect wouldn't be so
bad. Sugar wouldn't melt in Lis
mouth," but be melted down like a
snow ball under the rsjs of sunlight
That wasn't tbe way with uid Andy ;
when the light was turned on him he
could stand it. He didu't melt ; he
was made of solid stuff.
Pendleton made a fuss when be heard
ot what Mrs. Belknsp had done in the
War Department. He should have put
on sackcloth and ashes for teaching her,
perhaps, the first lesson that led to the
debauchery of the post-trader service.
You can eet it down, my boy, as a rule
that has few exceptions, that whenever
yon find a man that conies down un
mercifully on Women, he's a sham, the
purest specimen of natural fraud, and
obly needs a ceitain kind of atmos
phete to develope Lim, just like it took
the administratorship of the Bowler
estate in Kentucky to bring out in fall
rulief bis natural meanness, and all the
time he was doing it he was setting him
self up as the pink of perfection. He
is a nice pink.
The Bowler estate in Kentucky was
quite a snug one, from all acconnts.
Mr. Bowler owned four-fifths of the
entire stock of tbe Kentucky Central
Railroad. During tbe Rebellion rebels
got hold of the road and damaged it
considerably. The United States War
Department used it some, and all these
things being summed up in a claim
amounted to one hundred and forty
eight thousand dollars, which was pre
sented to the Secretary of War, Edwin
M. Stanton, for payment. He did not
pass the claim. It was presented to
Secretary Rawlins ; he rejected it.
Mr. Bowler died. Pendleton became
tbe administrator of his estate, and
took tbe four fifths of the railroad
stock of the estate and at tbe first elec
tion of the railroad company just men
tioned bad himself elected President of
it, and managed it as such. In tbe
course of events Belkoap, a husband of
one of the Bowler heirs, became Secre
tary of War of the United States, and
then Pendleton came forward with the
claim that had been twice kicked out
of the War Department. He had a
new plan. There was a new string to
the bow, and that string was a woman,
Mrs. Belknap. Could be but draw it,
all would be welL The wife of the
Secretary was an heir with others to
the claim. The temptation was pre
sented to the woman by the president
of the road. "I'll present the claim,"
was said, 'but, no, I'll not present the
claim unless I get eighty thousand dol
lars of it as my share." Astounding
proposition ! It was tbe old story of
the tempter and the tempted, and the
woman, woman-like, reasoned : "If this
pink of perfection Will present it, it
must be right, and I'll agree. But,
sir, it is all of it ours, and your duty
as president of the road tinder your
Salary, and as administrator under your
percentage, is to get it for ns without
additional eoat, if it is a just claim."
"But," -aid the tempter, don't you
see, 8tanto and Rawlins both siii It
Isn't right;' and rejected it. i'lf not
present it." Ths woman gave' iray.
The elaim was presented. Pendleton
got eighty thousand dollars of it for
bis own pocket, and allowed fifteen
thousand 8ollars more ot it to an audi
tor, and tbe heirs cam out at tbe little
en3 of the horn. I tell yon, there is
enough of btimstone iu the transaction
oil the part of the man, if it be touched
of, to send him to the plaee opposite
to Paradise.
It makes no difference how yon turn
the base for Pendletoa, it shows his
utterly corrupt and sbam character.
If tbe claim wis not a just one against
the Government, be of all the men in
..vW.;,...c.. ""I
le present such a one, for the greater
portion of ths reputation be has before
the couutiy is based en his continuous
objection to what he calls tho wrong
doiuga of others. Tbe country has
been flooded with Lis Mattery and frothy
speeches against other people fr cor
ruption in contracts with the Govern
sent at great prices. . If it was a just
claim he should Lave presented it iu
behalf of the heirs of the estate that
he was settling cp, and should not have
robbed them in tbe way be did. These
two plain poiuts in it are outrageous in
themselves and are sufficient to keep
bis spirit and the spirit of Old Hick
ory forevu apaft lu the: next world,
but tbey sink into utter insignificance
when compared to the debauchery to
which the transaction sank tho women.
Here was gentleman George, the es
sence of pretentious perfection, holding
out the idea that the elaim was worth
less, add St tbe same time saying, " If
yon give me so much I'll present it,
and your husband, Mr. Belknap, can
pass it" Tbe money and the woman's
influence he knew could do it. M Yon
can make it right by a promise to give
me fcijfbty' thousand dollars of it."
Did the Devil do more iu tbe Garden
with Eve ? Andy Jackson looks down
wlth sorrow, ritv and aneer oo such
I same man. Thuf, ao far, tbe whole
transaction, link by link, is traced to
tbe very inner court of a Chief Tycoon
of tbe party who want to follow Old
Hickory. ' He wouldn't own them if be
lived.
Look at it. It is none of your po-
; litical house that is in it in this caee.
First The elaim came out of a Demo
cratic Rebellion. If there had been
no Rebellion there would have been no J
claim. Second It was a Democratic
claim by Dcmocratio people through-
lout. Third It was presented by a
