What Plug Uglies are Made of.

The following from the 81. Louis Rpubf-
can, l.'cofoco Paper, may be considered as
fair an account as a loc,foco can give of Pc.
litical adversary.
The "Plug-Ugllcs" Of Baltimore, have at
tanned worldwide celebrity, or rather noto-
liety. Much that has been laid at their doors
hey really do not deserve. while good deal
that has been said of them is. indeed, too true
We had an opportunity Of seeing them at
home, and as they really are. consequently
can speak from the book. The association
proper, of the Plug giles fm it an aSsoci-
alton with regular constitution bylaws . I'd
officers, is composed fab)ut fifty youngmen,
all of them dCccntly clad. ard many of them
even in honorable and lucra tive employment.
One or two of them have interests in heavy
business houses, one is magistrate and au.
other isa turnkey at the County Jail. Their
organization is. ofcouise, political one being
of the so.called " American stamp. They
are, to use the parlancc of the prize ring, all
game men, and will fight at the drop of hat
for the principles Of their faction. and al
though their nul,bcr is comparatively small
the war cry of .'Wads IN Plugs" will call
together at almost any time an army of one
or two hundred outsiders, who are anxious to
do battle in their behalf.

PRIZE FlGur. -Bufaio. dug .-The priz'
fight between two Philadelphia rowdies, Brad
ley and Rankin, took place at the Canada
shore on Saturday. Bradley was declared
victorious, after fighting $50 rounds in the
presents of some 4 900 spectators. drawn to-
gether to behold the brutal exhibition. The
fight lasted two hours and so minutes, and
both parties were severely punished.
The fighting commenced at four o clock
At the third or fourth round. it was NANTES,
that Rankin was beaten, and the latter was
'fioorcd" by his adversary more than one
hundred times.
The fight lasted two hours and fifty-scver
seconds, during which time one hundred ant
fifty-six rounds were fought. Atthe hundred
and fifty-scvcnth round, Rankin was unable
to come to tae "scratch," and was declared
vanquished.
Rankin was so terribly beaten that it j:
thought he will not recover. His nose is bro
ken in two places. his ears are split and he is
otherwise drcadfully hurt. After the battle
he was unable TO recognize his most intimate
friends Bradley escaped with a black eye
and confused lip.
The principles in this disgraceful business
are both Irish, and both are tavern Keepers
The persons who have been most interested
in the result are the lower class of the coun
trymen of The bruisers. The admirers Of the
bullies have gathered in great strength for thu
last two days about the respective houses o.
the champions" and there has been very
large consumption Of bad rum in conse

The Latest Act In the BurdelI-Cun-
min CHAM Affair

a new and most astounding phase in the
B,lrdcll case came to light on Tuesday morn
ing. which in brief appears to he a sham birth
20 obtain the whole Of the Burdcll estate
the arrest Of Mrs. Cunningham. DR.. Catlin.
(of Brooklyn her physician. and the nurse.
Mrs Cunningham, it is alleged. some time
since, sent for the family physician, DR.. Uhl
who had attended her previous to the TRACE
ry at No. 81 Bond street and wished to bride
HIM to aid IN enaciing the farce oi sham
birth.
The Doctor declined. and conf lent ally
gave the necessary information to District
Attorney Hall, who forthwith laid his plans
to expose the attempted fraud, and secure the
conSp,ratorS.
Ga NJ 'nd.y night a child Of some poor wo.
man was born at one of the institutions. and
Cunningham where DR.. Catlin and the nurse
Jane Bel, were in waiting.
Mrs. Cunningham, 1t is alleged was in
rapturcs at the arrival of the intended heir
threw herself upon the bed, complained of be-
ing terrible iudiSpoScd, and affected having
giving birth to the young Burdel herself
The farce was overdrawn, however, and in n
short time the police were imposession Of the
house. with Mrs. c. under arrest, as well as
DR.. Cat.in and the nurse.
The latter two were sent to the 18th Ward
Station llous. and locked up. Mrs. Cunning
ham. perSlsting on being sick. was confined
to her room by The police who would neither
permit ing'eSs or cgrcsS.
The laws Of New York punish this crime
with Imprisonment in the State prison, not
more than ten years.

over that the feeble show which locofocos
were able u make at the North was only by
yelling Free Kansas and showing them
selves more ultra free sellers than the black
est of Republicans.
Of the party in the South he says:
II will do the American party the Justice
"to say. that it has manifested at tire South
nosympathy generally with its old associ-

except that being too Grcb!c in itself to arrest
g their Sanaical coarse there, it has refused to
e cooperate with any other party here to
- resist or ever to tbuke their insane excuses.
The English Of all this is that he
does not charge us with being Black Re-
publcaus and that We olght TO join in with
the locofocos. and thus make the southern
sectional party unit. For the future then
we suppose we arc exempt from the charge

that in his Efforts to force Maryland into the

earnestly preserve one spot from the contain
ination of faction.
As to the safety of our homes" we assure
the Gel. that the people feel no alarm what
ever upon that score and during the coming
campaign, we think he may safely visit the
most distant parts of the State, without the
slightest apprehension of the security Of his
household If the Republicans should come
down, we have not doubt. but, that even
the knownothings, whom he charges with
