AThel Legislature assembled and the
fight began Kemble thought that he
bad secured the Philadelphia delega-
tlon, and had offered them five thou
sand a piece. He bad already bought
four members from Lancaster county,
and the money had been put up in the
hands OF Stehman and Clarkson. Three
thousand dollars apiece had been
pad, and the members were to vote
ior hcmble, OF The man he should
name The Phlladolphia delegation
got wind OF Camcron's movements,
and thought there was q chance to
make moro money than kemble Of
Tered Eight OF the delegates there
fore formed ring, and refused TO
come into hemble's arrangement I'M
less he would put up more stuff Don
Cameron secured them with the
promise DISK thousand dollars apiece
This, OF course, destroyed Kemble's
chances for if he could not control
his own delegation at five thousand
dollars head, there was little chance
TO manage the members from other
portions of the State, He had bad
reputation, and any man with spark
of decency didn't like to vote for him
for any sum, because the mere fact of
his having voted for hemble would be
at once sot down as a corrupt trans
action hemblc had already put up
ms money Tor Tue Tour Lancaster
county men, aud wanted to get ont.
Hc therefore agreed TO turn over these
four men aud another whom he could
secure to Don Cameron, provided be
would refund the money he had al
ready pad Ihls Cameron readily
agreed to do,

case OF thls Kind, because Inc Gam

Scott was hrm IN his refusal to come
down, tne northern central eonlln

dilemma one oil Cameron iuglemen,
NJ. y quay, OF Beaver county, and a
very shre"d leiiow, applied TO me to
make matters all right, lilo always
pretended to be great friend OF mlre,
and Though knew he had sold me
out llme and again, l had never al
lowed either him or the Camerons TO
suspect that ! knew t. SO one day,
towards the close OF the session, Quay
quietly walked into the treasury build.
ing, seated himself in my Office and
begun common place conversation.
Ia Tie course OF II he very quietly re.
married that tho Cameronns were id
sorry that they had made any fight
against me They saw Their mistake
nowIand were very sorry ior,it but
everything could oe made right; there
