A DISGRACEFUL ACT,

We learn from a source which wo deem reliable,
that Gov. Cannon, and another party Of less note
In Bridgevie, named Carrot Layton, are accused
OF most disreputable and scandalous act, the par
tieulars Of which, as we have heard them related,
are as follows A dunbar of gentlemen in the up
per part of North West Fork Hundred, at the head
OF whom was Mr.. Gray, lately formed club for
the purpose Of raising volunteers to fill the quota
OF that subdivision. The club was originally com
posed of Democrats, but come Republicans seeing
II was likely effort to relieve them from tho CON
scription afterwards Joined in. Several thousand
dollars were raised and a number OF negroes, 10
We believe, obtained to do die for their cause as
volunteers. 1t was thought by the club that Gov.
Cannon, having much influence with the Board Of
Enrolment, would be a suitable person to obtain
their acceptance as recruits, and in his custody
they were placed. Well, the story goes that the
Governor and his friend Layton went 10 Whining
ton and had the negro es mustered in, at least
accepted, not aV volunteers, but substaes for that
maay Rspa bsicahs of the district, some vi whom
we're not members Of the club, aHd MIR. Layton
among the number. The Democratic members Of
the club were thus left without either volunteers,
substitutes or money But the most interesting
part OF the story is to come. These Republican
patriots who had 81 cheaply been relieved Of the
CONSUMPTION By his EKcellency, not satisfied with
being relieved from the draft, Immediately made
application TO the Commissioners for the sum Of
s5UO, the amount Of aid rendered by the State to
persons putting in substitutes; but the Commits
sioneTs having come to knowledge Of the trass
action refused the warrants, and hence the notice
published requiring affdaviIs from persona after
wards making application for such all. This pro
ceeding, Of course, raised storm Of indignation
against the Governor aud Mr.. Layton. When The
Governor returned to Bridgeville dayton, We
learn, afraid to TsturEl he found public seHti
msnt so iast Merging into Judge Lynch Court
that he hRstened back to Wilmington to make SOME
arrangement that would secure him against psrso-
nal violence, and finally succeeded 10 having the
excese of volunteers aud substitutes furnished by
Brandywine hundred credited to his district and
relieved it from draft. Here We stop, with THE 70
mark that Il the facts related be true, they exhibit
an amount Of moral abandonment In the Governor
aud the Board Of Enrolment Mt excelled 10 The
annals OF official criminality anywhere, and de.
mand an immediate Investigation by the proper
| authorities. Defai0arean.
