M'OLURR's PAPER.
Col. M'Glure's paper still hammers
away at the Pilgrim Club, General Cam
eron, Mayor Stockley, and others, who
have blocked his political pathway TO
riches and renown.
Col. Mcclure will never let up on
Gen. Cameron; if it had not been for
the Lochiel chieftain, Curtin might have
been in the Senate of the United States
and Mcclure in Grants Cabinet. He
will never forgive Mayor Stockley or
defeating him for Mayor of the Genten-
NAL City by a majority of $4,000. one
year ago, and the Pilgrim Club must
take his keen thrusts for insisting that
he should remain in the ranks of the
Republican party until he won his spurs.
One thing is particularly noticeable,
as marking in strong relief the difference
between Gen. Cameron and Col.
Mcclure in their character as political
leaders. Cameron's pathway to politi-
cal preferment is thiekly strewn with
friendships offerings; friends who stood
by the LOchiel chief have been kindly
remembered and richly rewarded, while
McClure's path is marked with shattered
castles of disappointment. Faithful
friends, whose friendship for Mcclure
was warmest when his adversity was
darkest, who were most faithful when
his shadows lengthened. until they had
well nigh faded in the gloom of departed
hope, have had their reward in being
thrust heartlessly aside when prosperity
shed her bright rays over him, that he
might take to his embrace the very men
he had long professed to despise.
Statesmanship may require q man to
thus act, but it has lost Mcclure many
a battle, while the friendship of Gamer
on has won for him many a contest. Af-
fection will never again be lavished up-
ON Mcclure; his eloquence will never
again arouse q peoples gratitude; he
may dream of greatness, but will awake
to lind 1t thorny, rugged road, and the
prize only Dead Sea fruit, that falls TO
ashes on the lips.
CIVIL WRONGS.
Mr.. James NJ. Brown, whose Office is
directly opposite Independence Hall,
had just concluded reading Bessie Tur-
ner's evidence on ''Tiltonian afinities."
when a tap at his door attracted his at
tention; opening it, Miss Della Savoy,
II years Of age, presented herself, hav-
ing been sent Of an errand by lady
friend of a Browns. Della is bright
looking, well developed mulatto, and
her youth and beauty Immediately
caused Brown TO imagine her his s'affin-
ity;" locking the door he knocked her
down-so says Delia-and outraged her
person. After she was released, she
went straight to her black lover, Fred.
Bostick, with whom she returned to
Browns place, on Chestnut street,
Brown was in his Office, and promptly
offered $2.85 to induce them to leave.
Bostick refused, and once proceeded to
put head" ON Brown. If painting
both eyes bright blue, spreading the
nose promiscuously over the face, and
otherwise tinting the features, until they
resembled a beef's liver, is 'sputting a
head on O man." Bostick succeeded ad-
mirably. Just as he concluded his art
istic performance, policeman put in
his appearance, took Brown into custO-
dy, complimented the darkey' and COM
mitted the white man, Brown, for trial.
