SWAMP LAND FRAUDs.-The Indianapolis
papers have given some revelations Of the
manner in which the State has been swindled
out Of the swamp lands. The sales Of these
lands for cash being dull in 1855, the Cover
nor and State Treasurer assumed the authori
ty to order the suspension Of the draining
operations unless the contractors would con-
sent to take lands in payment; and under this
order Of the Governor and Treasurer, script
was issued for the land; and issued not for
work actually done, and for which payment
was due, but was given out for work to be
done, and which had actually never been
touched; but which the parties receiving the
scrip, agreed to perform at some future day.
The DRAWINGS were let at most exhorbitant
prices to men in collision, who became Sc
security for each other The lands have been
transferred to them under these surreptitious
contracts for third or a fourth of their value.
Thus the State has been cheated out of the
best lands, without accomplishing any of the
work which was to give some value to the re-
naming inferior lands.
Among those who are charged with partici-
pating in this odious fraud is the Rev Mr.
LaTabse, the superintendent Of the schools
! the guardian of the morals of the youths o
Indiana, who has secured 1900 acres for his
share; Col. Allen May; E. B. Collins, Secre
tary of State, and Messrs. Dasgy and
Blake, of Grcencastlo are said to belong tc
the association. TIE Governor is ex
oneratcd from the charge of direct partcipa-
/ ton in the swindle, but he has certainly acted
with criminal negligence in allowing such
T proceedings under an authority which he
had assumed to grant himself The whole
proceeding illustrates the folly and i'm
policy Of entrusting the management Of any
property to the State.

SENATOR HAaLAS, OF IowA.-The case of
Senator Harlan which has been before the o.
S. Senate for more than year. involves some
Of the questions that are now exciting public
feeling in our own State. Senator Harlan is a
Republican, and was elected when the House
Of Representatives Of Iowa contained a large
majority Of his political friends, and the Senate
was Democratic. The Senate improving an
opportunity when a number of Democrats
were absent, voted 10 60 into joint ballot on a
certain day. Subsequently the Senate, when
full, voted to adjourn over the day set for 60
ing into joint ballet; and by this move prevent
ed session of the Senate on that day. The
Republican menlbcrs, notwithstanding this
adjournment went into the joint meeting with
! the House and secured the election Of Mr..
| Harlan The Democrats have contended that
the election was void, because the vote to go
| into joint ballot was virtually repealed by the
vote to adjourn over beyond the day Of the
election; that as the Senate was not in session
on that day. it could not act as body, nor
could any of its members act on that day as
Senators; and that their meeting in joint ses-
sion was as Irregular and illegal as if mob
had invaded the House and assumed the right
/ to elect Senator. On the other hand the
Republicans say, the Senate having voted to
J so into joint ballot, every member of the SEN
ate was bound individually to attend; and il
the Democrats failed to be present, it was a
deriction ofduty, for the vote to adjourn over
did not supercede nor repeal the joint reso-
luton Of the Houses to go into election, which
could not be changed except by concurrent
vote of the both bodies. Mr.. uarIan's case
was brought before the U. S. Senate by a
protest from the Senate Of Iowa, passed soon
after his election. The subject has been re-
torred to the committee on the Judiciary
| Whatever the decision may be, it will make
but little difference to Mr.. Harlan, as both
branches of the Iowa Legislature are now
strongly Republican, and if rejected, they
would at once re-elect him. But the case is
an interesting one, as the principles involved
in it, may have bearing on the elections Of
Senators in this State and Pennsy lYania
where similar state Of facts exists. This is
another instance of the factous acts Of polit-
ical parties.

AMERICAN PEEREssEs.-The death Of Lady
Stafford, in England, one of the three grand
daughters of Charles Carroll, of Carrollton, who
married an English nobleman, says the
Philadelphia Journal, has again given rise to
remark on the singular circumstance of three
sisters marrying noblemen of the highest
rank; but the coincidence is still greater in
this case, as neither of the sisters had off
spring, so that no American blood was infused
into the peerage by them. Their niece, Miss
McTavish, of Baltimore, married a brother of
Lord Carlisle, but parted from her husband
after living with him but short time. There
have been but two other American women
who have married English nobemen-M
Bingham, wife of the first Lord Ashburton,
and Miss Cadwallader, the wife Of the first
Lord Erskine; both Of these ladies were ma
tives Of PHILADELPHIA.

a. Party spirit to crafty its prejudices

The New York Tribune in its malignancy
against Shareholders, attempts to dcpr3ciate
everything at the South and predicts that
even in cotton growing, it is to be outrivalled
by India 10 show the absurdity Of such an
idea the following statement Of the imports OF
India cotton into Liverpool for six years is
published in the New York Herald. The
East India Company in 1871, sent to this
country and engaged ten Of the most success
full planters in the Southern States to go to
India and supcrintend the culture of cotton
there upon the American system. After five
years experimenting in the best soils, in the
most favorable locations, with all the advan-
tages that an unlimited supply ofcapital could
afford, and with all the labor and facilities
which their power and influence could com
mand, the failure was signal and so discOurag
ing that the company gave up the attempt to
cultivate it on large scale.
The imports of India cotton into Great
Britain, for the past six years, or during the
golden period, have been as follows:
1850 bales 9,47l !s53......... bales, 4s5 az
Is5I................ 325474 I85t......,.. 5GS 253
'S3........... 222. 361 1885,. 1901
1t is supposed that the supply of 1855 will
about equal that of 1856. The great bulk of
India cotton consists of the poor sort article,
known as Surat, which is chiefly imported
from Bombay.
Surat only commands half the price ip Liver
pool of American uplands and Gulf cotton.
The long voyage greatly enhances the freight.
The bale only averages 200 pounds weight,
