TRUE TO ITS PROMISE, the Philadelphia
Times, this morning, publishes an array of
evidence to sustain its charge that John C.
Delaney, State Librarian of Pennsylvania,
was engaged in a conspiracy to sell the
Irish Land League vote of Pennsylvania to
Beaver and the Cameron bosses. Delaney,
1t seems, was engaged to contract with a
sub-auctiOneer-One Edward O'Meagher
Condon-who, for dollars and cents
" as the paramount interest,"" as
he himself expressed it, was to visit
the various Land Leagues of the State aud
endeavor to persuade the members that 1t
would be to their interest to vote for the
bosses ticket. Condor holds position in
the Treasury Department at Washington
and, OF course, was TO draw full salary, In
addition to the money received from the
bosses. 1t is not likely, after this complete
exposure, that Delaney and Condor Will
have much influence with the Irish voters,

INDIAN BAY, ARK, Nov. %, 1882.
EDITOR LEDGER:-Busiuess at this
place during the last two months has
been On a big boom. Merchants
collections have been far better than
they fondly hoped for. The firm Of
Martin 4 Black have shipped to date
nearly 400 bales OF cotton, principally
to the merchants Of Memphis Messrs.
II. q L Silverman, r. J. Robinson.
Murrell q Son, and the rising young
firm Of Hargiss 4 Blaine, have also
done a good business. The frosts have
injured the bottom crops about 20 per
cent, and the late cotton about 30 per
cent. Labor has been coming in at
this point att lively rate recently.
About one hundred negroes, young
and old, arrived here last week from
Bolivar county, Mississippi, and
others are making ready TO come.
Notwithstanding the disadvan-
tages under which our mer-
chants have labored during the
past year they are possessed of a spirit
OF enterprise that is praiseworLhy,
indeed. Several buildings have been
erected this year, and more are in the
course OF erection. At present White
river is literally full Of steamers. Two
st. Louis, one New Orleans aud three
Memphis packets are plying the trade
st. Louis merchants are making heavy
efforts in the way Of freights and prices
OF goods TO capture the trade of mer.
chants along the river, and the bust.
ness men Of the Bluff City will have "a
look to their oars" if they wish to
retain it.
The people here arc highly elated
at the great Democratic successes
throughout the Union on the 9TH inst,
7. Dunn, our popular Congressman,
carried this, the First Congressional
district, almost unanimously. He
will be a formidable candidate for
United States Senator at our next
Senatorial election.
Nature has been quite lavish In her
gifts this year. Besides fine crops of
cotton and corn, the mast crop is the
heaviest ever known. The bottoms
are full Of game and the lakes and
bayous TEEN with wild fowl.
The coston seed business has
been lively here, and the business men
find it a difficult matter TO end shin.

put up in this end of the country in

CHALMERS
Finds in His Being Counted Out
an Instance of Chickens
Coming Home 10 ROost.
St. Louis Globe

Nobody will waste any sympathy
on Mr.. Chalmers on the occasion Of
his being counted out of his seat in
the Second Mississippi Congressional
District, for the reason that he has
shown himself TO be ready to take
advantage Of any disreputable trick
that would secure his political ad-
yancement. In the present Congress
the Republicans wers interested in
bouncing him; in the next one the
Democrats will be interested both in
keeping him out and in Furnishing
him for deserving their party. If the
Democrats refuse to give him his seat,
as they probably will, the difference
between the action Of the two parties
will be that the Republicans unseated
him because he was not elected, while
the Democrats will not give him his
seat notwithstanding that he was
elected. The trick that gave the
certificate TO his opponent in this case
was counting 1472 votes for j. r.
Chambless INSTEAD Of giving them to j.
Chalmers for whom they were
cast, there being no such candidate as
j II Chambless But as far assMr.
Chalmers is concerned, it is a fine
instance Of chickens coming home TO
roost.
