Havre, and large sums Of money.
II 10 not questioned that man by the
name of J. ID. Stevenson, a Van Buren
partizan in New York, and tool oi
hfess,s. Butler and Hoyt, came on here
TO the house Of May or Swift, Oct. ltb,
and represented himself as Wing, bear
Jog a letter of introduction, either real or
forged, in which, however, the man in
troduced had no name, but who subse-
quentIy called his name Jarvis. This
Stevenson thus changing his name and
his character, pretends to have been in
troduced by the Mayor 10 several per-
sons in Philadelphia, and put words into
their mouths, which are proved utter
fsisehoods. Such il the character and
conduct of.a man, upon whom Nessrs.
Butler and Hoyt rely to convict the
Mayor Of Philadelphia, and some of the
most eminent men in New York Of wick
ed violations Of law.
Mr.. Bella Badger has declared to Us
this morning explicitly in the presence of
several gentlemen, that he never was at
any time directly or indirectly concerned
in Sc nding men from Philadel phia to New
York for the purpose Of voting. When
Stevenson was in Philadelphia he called
on Mr.. Badger the day before the cleo
ton when MIR. b. was very much enga-
grd, and introduced himself as Mr.. Jar
pis lie said he had come 10 PhiIadel-
phia on the same business for which Mr..
GleD,wonh had come in 1888, and asked
MIR. B. whether he could send any mon
to New York. Mr.. Badger declares to
US that he understood the object Of Ste
venson to be to obtain certain whig citi-
zcns OF Philadelphia TO 90 To New York
aud watch at the polls us they had for
nerly and publicly done in order to pre-
vent the Administration party from using
imported voters from Philadelphia, as II
was known they intended to do. Upon
the application OF Stevenson TO MIR. Bad
ger, MIR. Badger told Linn that he had
10 time to attend TO the matter, and
in fact no inclination TO trouble himself
about it, after a few words more, Steven
son departed and left the fictitious name
of "Jaryis." Mr.. Badger afterwards
received "a letter from him to which he
paid no attention. This statement oi
MIR. Badger will be duly fortilied-but
we give it thus at present in order to dis
abuse the public at distance Of the i'm
pressions against MIR. Badger. 10 this
city his character is sufli cient TO weigh
down oil the evidences OF Stevenson
aud his infamous cabal.
The Gard Of Mayor Swift is amply
sufficient to sa' isiy the citizens Of Phila-
delphia that Nc is falsely accused by the
conspiratOrs.
We might add also the counter decla-
rations Ut gentlemen whom the last
card" uf the administration is thus de-
signed to ruin. The testimony Of them
all under oath will be duly laid before
the public, shelving conclusively that Ste
venson and his associates are guilty ol
the diaboical sin Of attempting to rende
honorable men infamous Ior the purpose
OF carrying political point and that Tho
means which have been used and which
they will TOR the sake Of consistency pur
sue, are bribery, treachery and pcrjsry
This plot we find already is recoIlin:
upon its authors. We have not heard
single individual Of the many who have
spoken with us on the subject, who zoe
no, regard it ia the light Of malignan
device Of certain salaried leaders an
tools OF the enemy. 1t is designed ais
10 direct attention from the investigation
now in progress touching the inIcfpola
tions Of forged declarations Of citizen
A. Il. Al, ,l tha TO
this city, which nefarious proceeding
it Cannot be pretended was not the wor
of persons in the Van Buren Interest
In proof OF this il is only necessary I
say the Wing Counsel are prosecutln
the matter, and Van Buren, Counse ar
endeavoring to qmash 1t.
We solemnIy address the good sense
moral sympalhes Of this community an
ask whether a party, which uses the ie
onious slratagems thus brought home
the Van Buren, managers, is 10 he trus
ed with the government, no matter viii
may be its avowed plans Of national po
iy!
Nlessrs, Grinnell, Blatchford, We
more, Cook, and the Others implicate
all men. Of the first responsibility ar
standing in New York, have solemn
tesiife on their oa,hs, that there is n
n word Of truth in the charges again
them. The deposition Of MIR. Jam'
Glsntworh, the only person who b
been arrested, discloses the dark desig
OF the loco loco leaders. Read il, ca
die men Of all parties, and see to what
desperate state The administration I'M
are reduced. nv
