IL July last the editor Of TIE Phila
delphia Times made the public charge
that certain assumed leaders Of the Land
League in this State ''were bargaining
with the leaders of the Republican par
ty for the transfer or sale of some thiI =
ty thousand Irish votes. - The Land
league of Scranton adopted a resolution
asking Col. Mcclure for his authority
for making the charge, to which he re.
piled in an open letter in which he sta.
ted that within thirty, or, at most,
ninety days, he would furnish the proof
relating to the proposed sale of Irish
. Democrats to the bosses in Pennsylva-
MIA. Col. Mcclure has been as good as
his word. and in the Times of Saturday
( last he spreads before the public the ev-
I idence in support of the truth of his al
/ legations, It seems from the exposure
in the Times that the scheme to transfer
the Land League vote to Beaver. the
Cameron candidate for Governor, was
conceived by the notorious John G. De-
laney, Librarian to the State Senate
who, during Hartranft's campaigns, ac-
quired an infamous repute by assuming
as an Irishman the power to barter
away the votes ofihis countrymen. He
went to Washington early in June and
had talk with Don Cameron in rela-
tion to the matter, and between the two
1t was agreed that Edward O'Ieagher
Condor, paTdOned Fenfan convict. but
now employed in the Office of the super-
vising Architect at Washington, would
be the proper person to effect the trans
fer of the Irish vote for Cameron's ben
eft. Cameron was to see and did see
John c. New, assistant Secretary of the
Treasury, and procured from him for
Condor leave of absence from duty. to
go to Philadelphia, Pittsburg, and other
places in this State under the pretence
of inspecting public buildings and fur
niture and Oh the 10th of August Con-
don reported to Architect Macarthur.
in Philadelphia, where he has remained
ever since. Condor, in addition to his
official salary, was to receive full expen-
ses for travelling, and also. of course. to

Of two percent. as a bribery fund. De-
laney's own letters, now in possession Of
Col. Mcclure, and published in the
Times, make all things manifest. Nei-
ther Col. Mcclure nor any other sane
man believes that the Irish vote, or the
vote of any other nationality, is in the
market but that John G. Delaney un-
dertook to dispose of for a satisfactory

WHEN Sir Garnet Wolseley, the Brf-
tish COmmandeT-in-chi left LOudon
for Alexandria, he bOasted that he
would be back to England on the 18th
Of September Today, with Egypt in
his hands, and that he would then dine
with his friends. From present appear
anceS, however, the feast will have to be
indefinitely postponed. as Arab Bey. the
Egyptian rebel, is giving him more trou-
ble than he ever dreamed Of WOlseley
will yet have a hard road to travel be-
fore he gets to Cairo. the Egyptian cap
ltal, and as yet nothing approaching a
regular battle has been fought. The
only thing like it took place at Kas-
sassiu on Saturday last. The attack
was made by the Egyptians, and not by
the British. and was quite spirited af-
fair Gen. WOlseley in his despatch to
the War office, claims a victory, mas
much as he compelled Arab BGy to
Withdraw from his position into his re-
trenchmentS, but he didn't attempt to
follow him up, The loss on either side
was not over two hundred, about the
number that used to be killed and
wounded in an old nedDonnybrook
fair in Ireland. What vast difference
there is between the progress of Wolse-
ley's troops in the land Of the Pharoah IS
and that of Napoleon, when at the close
of the last century he took a French
army into that country, and though
only about twenty-eight years of age. he
marched from one victory to another
until he reached the Pyramids above
Cairo on the upper Nile. His rapid and
wonderful marches read like romance
when cOntrasJed with the snail-like
movements of the English invaders of
to-day.

Tom MARSHALL ON BEAyER.-In an
interview with Mr.. Marshall. publish
ed i'll a recent issue of tie New York
Herald, we find the following questions
and answers
''You will oppose the Beaver ticket p"
Il am opposed to CamerOnism in all its
forms and the success of the regular ticket
would mean the perpetuation of the Gamer
on power IN the State. The Independent
policy should now be to extirpate the entire
gang in the country as well as in the State.
Inc roots, II left, viii spring up in "a new
growth and flourish. The Independants
should and Will run candidate against Err
ret in this district"
And your opinion Of Beaver, Mr.. Mar
shaU9" -1I' -i''i-
He is Don CamerOn's marionette. But
What leader he would make if he had
brains He has a very child's face in his in
nocent expression. His figure is tall and
slender and he has the bearing of a Francis
LOyola. But there is nothing behind if He
Is as volatile as child and cannot make two
successive speeches without contradictinp
himself. Nor do l believe in his sincere con.
ylction on any subject. He went to Gamer
onabecause he wanted to be Governor. as
every body Knows, and yet he came to me af.
ter my nomination and threw his arms abOut
my neck. God has called you, Mr.. Mar
snau, ne said. 1T IS your duty as Chris
tian man to accept Pah -
will Beaver be defeated?"
Undoubtedly. This Independent feeling
mas Deen- undeTestimated. It will be repre-
sented at the polls on election daV by a hun
dred thousand votes. IF it is necessary there
VIII be thousands of Republicans who will
vote tor Pattison direct. WHY should tnev
not? 1t is necessary to overthrow Cameron
rule IN the State that the Republican partv
may live. What matters it to us who Is
Governor, so that he is an honest man I?
lie appoints few Ssalers of Weights and
Measures, Secretary of State and an At
tOrney General. PattisOn will make GOOD
appointments and there his influence upon
our personal welfare or comfort, or for the
matter of that, upon our party welfare will
end. We Will cast hundred thousand Re
publican votes for Stewart. Three hundred
and fifty thousand yotes.will be cast for Bea-
yer. Four hundred thousands Democratic
votes will be cast for PattisOn. We will
show that we have a Republican majority in
the State of fifty thousand, and this deter
minatlon to free the party from the scandal
Gus practices that are discrediting it. will
only show how strong is the Republican sem
tmeDt IN the State by bringing every Repub-
llcan to the polls-hOw much stronger than
the DemOcra ic sentiment in the State''
DO not understand that the vote for Ste
waTt Will represent all of the independent
strength in the State. Many thousand Re
publlcans opposed to the CamerOn's and
Their scandalous following will vote for Bea-
yer IRON a mistaken impression that the par
ty Will be imperilled by his defeat By his
| defeat we will be all the stronger next wear.
ana the election of a few Democrats will be
small cost TO pay for the release we will gain
from the incubus that threatens to carry the
party down to the depths"

the true character of the fruit was revealed

reer, but it is interesting One Of her
first recollections was Of au evening
when, as her little brother Samuel lav

Jumped up, crying, 40, mamma, there's
the moon running away" while every
one hastened to the door to watch the
fiery course Of the celebrated meteor in
1888. She always remembered the
wondering exclamation, how fright.
ened people were, and how they said
that this trailing light was sent as a
warning that something dreadful was
about to happen.
Some Scotch people arc very super.
stitious, and in those days few under.
stood the laws governing the heavens,
and it was left for timid little Mary to
grow up and teach tho world many.
many things, which they never could
have learned for themselves about tho
fulness Of the heavens and tho Garth.
