airy. was SS24, 199, 255 90, instead of S29,2l4,-

ton Tor one year is $l6,332, 1897, or va little

debt, technically SO called, amounted to that
sum. But did you not know when you wrote
the article to which refer, that the ou,stand-
ing appropriations, and other liabilities, swell
ell ;he actual obligations of the Government
TO an amount considerably over twenty mil

RICHMOND ENQUIRER.

The Richmond Enquirer characterizes our reply
to its assault upon Mr. Stuart's address as .disin.
genuous;" and to shew this il relies upon the allie
CATION, the evidence of which we have not SEEM
that Chas. ]. Ingersoli denies that he admitted
tho Van Buren, debt to be Twenty. two millions.
Now the Enquirer is certainly itself very disin
genuous.-It ought to know that we could not
have rested upon Mr.. Ingersol's admission, for
The proof oil our assertion, for the plain reason
that 1t made the debt but Itoenfy-t,co Millions,
whereas we contended it was Itcenfy-four MI
Eons.-This last was the amount, as we expressly
stated in the same sentence from which the En-
quirer quotes, it had been ascertaned to be by Mr.
Merriwether. of Georgia. and reported by him
as Chairman Of the Committee upon Public Ex-
penditures at the session of Congress Of '4I-42
and how the Enquirer, If it meant to deal fairly,
could have overlooked tho fact is to US most as
tonishing.
Blu. it is now too late 10 avert the mischieis
which its mis-statements may produce upon the
pending election, and we shall therefore content
yourselves with giving the items Of the Van Buren,
debt, as furnished by the Committee above refer
red to, and leave the Enquirer to digest them at
its leisure. They are as follow:

THE DAYTON POSTMASTER.

James Brooks has lately been appointed most.
mas at Dayton, (O.) With this the people are
very much dissatisfied. A mass meeting of citi-
zens, without distinction of party, was held at the
courthouse, who resolved that Brooks standing
was such in that community as should have pre.
vented his appointment, and should forbid his
continuance In office, Brooks published an adj
dress to the people, giving history of himself
and OF his having left Pennsylvania under threat
OF prosecution for passing counterfeit money,
which ne denies having passed, and which, as he
has since learned, was not counterfeit. lie bus-
'erlngly declares that no man shall repeat the

In the face OF this, the electors took vote upor

SENATOR FROM INDIANA.

Senator in Indiana:
NEW YORK, Switzerland co., Ia.,3

Sir:-Like yourself, i must lament the issue Of
our late Senatorial election, as it now stands be-
tore the people OF this nation. The Hon. Oliver
H. Smith was legally elected on the second ballot.
In our last General Assembly. lie received
sseventy-hve out of one hundred and Gorty-nine
legal votes. 1t is true that our General Assembly
contains $50 ballots, if both Houses are full !:
Daniel keiso, who voted with the oppositioc'
was not entitled to a seat or vote-leayinc hui
l49 votes without his.
Joseph z. Eggleston, Of this county, was elect.
ed Tor three years--he served two, and RESIGNED n
Few Gays before our last August election. The
constitution Of Indiana, section L. article 2. do.
ciaIes "when vacancies happen in either branch
OF tho General Assembly, the Governor, or the
son exercising the power of Governor, shall issue
writs OF election to fill such vacancies" Nosucb
writ was ever issued by the Governor or apv Other
person elected to fill that vacancy, even to this
day. Kelso on false certificate from wicked
democratic clerk, took his seat contrary to the Con-
su.utioE and laws of Indiana. The Constitu,ior
OF ,he United States, article 1, section 5, saws.
Each House shall be the Judges ofthe elections
returns, and qualifications of its own members. -

gal'y oil the pretended election of the said Kelso

The discharge OF William b. Dabney, Monday
last, on motion of his Counsel in the Superior
Court, (three terms of the Court having passed
without trial OF his case) puts an end to the lie
gal proceedings in the matter of the far famed en-
bezzlement Of the Bank of Virginia. With con-
siderable amount of mystery about it, it is now a.
bandoned, TO be lost amidst the rubbish which
time heaps on all things. The well meaning
connected with that fraudulent affair, which has
visited such severe distress upon so many fami-
lies, may have bruised hearts, yet their spirits
may be comparatively TRANQUIL; but for those
