THE CONSPIRACY.

We ask Mr.. Archer if he did not approving
ly con over Mr.. Bolts articles of impeachment,
at a time when he little thought we would drive
the leader of the Wings to print them, and
thus enable the InlelIigencer and the universal
Wing party" to disclaim them and repudiate
the authors? 1t will be in vain for the Clay
Wings to attempt to get rid of the odium.

We observe, by the papers in Maryland and
New York, that the Senate proceedings in secret

MEssRs. SNYDER AND MATHIoT.

MESSRS. SNYDER AND MATHIOT.
We design to re-insert, every few days, this
true version of Mr.. Mathiors disgraceful as
sault on the President and the noble and over
whelmng defence of Mr.. Synder.
Mr.. Mathiot rose (Mr Weller giving way)
for the purpose as he declared to convict the
President of uttering "deliberate lie;' Or in
case of failure, TO receive the Z" brand Of inta-
my'' on his own brow.
The substance of Mr.. MS charge was this,
WHILE called on the President on the Friday
previous to the Veto of the last Bank bill, and
during the interview the President (according
to Mr.. ND
"Aluded to Mr.. Ewings bill, and wished to know
why the Wing party could not be satisfied with that
measure. He (Mr. MathtoD said that it did not meet
with the appreciation of the Wings.
"The President desired to know whether he Mr..
Mahiot) had studied the principles of MIR. Ewing IS
b2 The President then went on to discuss that
bill, to defend it section by section, sho0ing conclu-
sipety that Mr. Tyler had himself studied the bill
had read it carefully. And yet the President said,
after this interview, to his (Mr. Malhiots) col
league from Montgomery, that he Mr. Iyler) had
not read The bill Of EOing's and did not hnoW arhe-
Their he could approve It,"
When Mr.. NJ concluded he turned exuting-
ly to Mr.. Weller, and desired to know if he had
not convicted The President of having uttered
"a wHful and deliberate ie?"
AT this juncture Mr.. Snyder rose.
Mr. Snyder asked Mr.. Mathlot whether he Mr..
N.Y. did not tell him Mr. Snyder that on the Friday
evening after he left the Presidents the Pres dent
sent hun MIR M a message-that, since the depar-
ture of Mr.. Nj he (the Presidency had read Ewing S
bill, and found it SO entirely different from what he
imagined it to- be- he could not approve it,
Mr. Mathut replied hat he had no recollection OF
telling Nh Snyder, any such thing.
Mr.. SNYDER then said-sI DO NOW AssER +
Mr. SPEAKER, IN VIEW OF THE FULL REsPoNsIBI-
LIrY WHICH MY DECLARATION CAN BRING, IN THE
FACE OF THIS HOUSE, AND UPON MY HONOR AS A
GENTLEMAN, THAT Mr.. MATHIoT DID TELL ME
SOL"
Thus the matter terminated, and this is the
true version That there may be no mistake, ii
will be repeattd IN the House.
The InteIligencer closes its report with Mr..
Malhot', disclaimer, and by suppressing Mr..
Snyder's solemn asseveration, leaves the
charge against the President uncontradicted
The Globe for reasons easily imagined, gives
no account of the affair whatever. But rhe In
te1gencer's false report Is copied by the Balti-
more Patriot, and will go the rounds of the Clay
press Thus the clicked out Cabinet" seek 10
establish their charges against the President,
aud thus the Federal Bank presses intend 10 So
cure Mr.. Clay's election
Let them 90 on-TRUTH willyet prevail. We
shall continue to insert the above at proper in
tervals, until the whole country shall perceive
the rascality and proAigacy resorted to to crush
the Chief MAgi strate.

West, Mr.. Bucki. CHAM thus continues:
elbow Massachusetts will act in this matter, 1t is
not easy to 70, esee; and, for ourself confess we
feel but little inter est in it. Several times we have
buckled on and entered The field under the
banners of Henry Clay, but the campaigns have al
WAYS been unsuccessful. 1t has been the misfortune
of Mr.. Clay that the leaders oftie party which
should now support him, and which have protessed to
yield to none admiration of the great talents and
public services and the undoubled patriotism Of Mr.
Clay have always been the disciples of the glorious
doctrine of availability If humble deliver in the
political field, like ourseIf advanced determination
to support Mr.. Clay, his mouth and his press were
stopped with the miserable can't Mr.. Clay IS the
best man, but we cannot elect him. we would 60
for Mr.. Clay with all hearts, but he cant be
elected Such for eighteen years has been the song
of set of selfish hypocrites, who took the command
in the political campaigns. Such was the burden OF
their speeches previous to the Harrisburg Convention
in 1889, and such the only apology they could OF
fer the insuted nation for the treason and reache-
ny they committed when they nominated General
Harrison instead of Mr.. Cay-a crime for which the
country suffers, though some of the traitors are
enjoying the rewards of their treachery."

| ANNIVERSARY OF AMERICAN INDEPEN-
DENCE-DEMOCRATl CELEBRATION.
FoURFH oF JULY, 1S4l

FOURTH OF JULY, 1912.
The sirty-srh iuersary Of national indepen-
dence was celebrated by the INCoRRUPTIBLE DEMO-
of the couaty OF Philadelphia, at the IMonu-
n,ent House, kensitgton in manner becoming Amer
lean patriots and worthy the sacred cause to which
that glorious day is dedicated. The Declaration Of
Independence read with much force and effect by
Samuel Stevenson, Esq. which was followed by an
appropriate nationa air from an excellent band OF
music. An Grafton was then pronounced by Henry
Jacques, Esq. p style and manner seldom equalled,
and perhaps never surpassed-as that gentleman has
politely consented to furnish the committee of ar
rangements with copy of his address, which will be
laid before .ae pub It would here be superfuous
to comment on its natdre or substance 1t must how
be remarked that the orator did justice to his
subject and the address terminated amid the enthu-
siastic applause of the numerous assemblage.
The qualifications of the festival were increased by
the presence of several of the surviving soldiers of
the Revolution, and called up train of inspiring
and patriotic associations Among the number as
sembled on this occasion, many of the old and
steadfast supporters of Democratic principles-men
who had been conspicuous in asserting and main
tanning the rights of the people since the time of the
ustrious JEFFERSON. At three o'clock the compa-
ny sat down to sumptuous sepast prepared by Mr.
Flanagan, with his usual skill and iberality, under
the directions of the following ofi GERS

THE CLOVEN FOOT.

We copy the following from the U. S. Ga
zette. We will comment on fully hereafter. In
the meantime we beg our Harrison Wing
friends to look at it closely

power and authority out of the hands of Mr.. Ty-
Ter and placing them in the control of Mr.. Man
gum. And this proof goes further, and convcts
the Intelligencer of direct participation in this
notable enterprise.
We could go on and give as many proofs as
Mr.. Bolts enumerales charges of impeachment,
bat we have stated enough to answer the ques-
ton, What does all this 2" The Intel
ligencer was anxious for the proof-we have
gwen it upon that papers acknowledgment OF
its own conviction.
Having forced the Intelligencer into an ad-
mission of our charges, we will now proponnd
few more interrogatories for its sage diges-
tion
Does not the Intelligencer know that it was
the full intention TO bring forward and carry
Mr. Bots' articles Of impeachment, for the ex-
press purpose of putting the Executive power
in the hands of Mr.. Mangum?
Does not the Intelligencer know that for this
express purpose the very best legal advice in
and out of the House was had
Does not the Intelligeneer know that that very
point has been a subject of close and learned
debate for long time?
Does not the Intelgencer know that the idea
Of forcing the impeachment through the House
was only abandoned after it was most clear
Iy ascertained that such course would not
deprive the present President of his Executive
power
Having brought the Intelligencer to the wit
ness stand and convicted its editors upon their
own admissions, we now call upon them to an
swer these additional interrogatories, and if that
paper throws itself upon its dignity" we shall
hereafter put the same questions to some half
dozen eminent gentlemen, who, perhaps, will
consider it necessary to reply.
This is not the first time that we have seen
assumed dignity creep out of trouble, nor will
it be the last. Neither are we to be thrown
from our exposition commenced yesterday
though this acknowledgment of the dignlfed"
editors was evidently intended only to drive US
from a course where they see nothing but de-
struction before them.
Does the Inteligencer intend to answer our
other questions of w Wednesday morning2

ENORMOUS FRAUD AND WRONG
USURPATION OF THE GOVERN
MENT OF THE CITY.

ENORMOUS FRAUD AND WRONG
USURPATION OF THE GOVERN
MENT OF THE CITY.
We announce, with sorrow and indigna-
ton, that the Loco ocO Office-holders of this
city, fairly and decisively beaten in the
election on Tuesday, have resolved to usurP
the government, and by force and fraud
pcrpetuate their rule for the ensuing year, in
defiance of the verdict of the people. This
is their deliberate purpose; but whether they
will carry it into full effect, depends upon
the firmness and energy of indignant resist
ance with which it will be met by the out
ragged freeman of New York.
From the very moment that their defeat
became known, this nefarious plot appears
to have been resolved on. Their first stand
was made on the return in the Sixteenth
Ward, where they determined to deprive
Alderman West of 159 votes, on the absurd
II frivolous pretext that they were printed
"Alderman--EDwARD D. WEST" instead of
" For Alderman ;" and so of the other can
didates. We have been informed that May
or Morris was consulted with regard 10 this,
base contrivance before daylight yesterday
morning, und that he decided it would an
Swer.
But this has since been abandoned on dis
covering that the Aldermen Of the Sixteenth
Ward alone would not save them, and the
cc:ispirators have struck at higher game
They have wantonly deprived the Wing Al
derman of the Eighth Ward of his return,
in the face of a clear majority of the votes,
after. they had enormously colonized tho
Ward, and they have determined to set
aside and annul the election in the Sixth
Ward altogether. By thus doing they pro-
pose to hold new election, efface their de-
feat of Tuesday, drill in their warning fac
tons to the support of a single ticket, and
elect it, ousting Mcssrs. Crolius and Atwell
from their seats in the Council, to which the
people have beyond all cavil elected them!
Such is the Democracy which now misruEes
and plumbers New York, and threatens now
to rule by open force when the delusion of
the ignorans is no longer available.

THE LOAN BILL.

The Loan Bill passed the Senate, after a
long session, on Saturday last, by a vote of
26 TO Is. A slight amendment is adopted,
which will undoubt sdly be at once CONCUR
red in by the House of Representatives.
The loan we believe is now placed in the best
form possible to receive speedy ncgocia-
tion. A good opportunity is afforded capt.
talists to invest their money, where hand
some interest will be returned, and where
their principal will be perfectly safe.
