WASHINGTON, August 2l.-At a
recent convention held at jackson.
Miss. General Chalmers delivered q
speech, during which he read dis
patch dated at Washington purporting
to be from James d. Uessor, alleging
substantially that a bargain or agree
ment had been made between ex
Congressman j. r. Lynch and certain
Lamar Democrats that the Second or
Chalmers district was to be made
overwhelmingly Democratic and a
Republican district was to be made for
Lynch. Cessor, whose name was used
as authority for this piece Of infOrma
ton, is a messenger at the Postofice
Department, appointed on the recon-
mendation Of Chalmers. Mr.. Lynch,
WHO is present in this city, called on
the Postmaster General to-day, and
made application to have the allega-
tions contained in the Cessor dispatch
investigated. Cessor was sent fer and
Intercepted by General Gresham
upon the subject, and he denied that
we had ever sent such q dispatch OF
authorized anybody to send it for him,
The belief here is that the telegram
was prepared for campaign purposes
The refusal Of Cessor to become re-
Sponsible for its contents puts Mr.
Chalmers ia a very awkward posi-
ton.

 that it was full of dangers, as the
 goat was loaded for beer, and told
 him he yet had time to retrace
 his steps if he wanted to. He
 said he wanted the whole busi-
 ness, and we could go on with the
 menagerie. Then I said to pa
 that if he had decided to go ahead and not blame us for the conse- quences, to repeat after me the following: Bring forth the royal bumber and let him bump!'
 "Pa repeated the words, and
 my chum sprinkled the kyan pepper on the goats mustache, and he sneezed once and looked sassy, and then ne sees the lager beer goat raring up, and he star ted for it just like cowcatcher, aud blatted. Pa is real fat, but he knew he got hit and grunted, and said: 'Hell's fire what you boys doin'? and then the goat gave him another degree, and pa pulled off the towel and got up and started for the stairs, and SD did the goat, and ma was at the bottom of the stairs listening, and when l looked over the bannis- ters pa and ma and the goat were all in a heap, and pa was yelling murder and ma was screaming fire, and the goat was blatting and sneeZing and hunting, and the hired girl came into the hall, and the goat took after her, and she crossed herself just as the goat struck her, and said: How ly mother protect mel! and went down stairs the way we boys slide down hill, with both hands on herself, and the goat rAred up and blatted, and pa and ma went into their room and shut the door, and then my chum and me 7DeueE ..- front door aud drove he goa, ugt
 ''The minister who comes to see ma o--- ..-...- --=------ ---..

But I don't believe pa will lick me, cause he said he would not hold Us responsible for the conse- quences. He ordered the goat himself and we filled the order, don't you see? Well, l guess Tll % and sneak in the back way and find from the hired girl how the land lays. She won't go back on me, cause the goat wasn't loaded for hired girls.

mysterious. "But why QO yOt ask ?"
 70, nuthin, only I wish me and my chum had muzzled ouI goat with q pillow. Pa would have enjoyed his becoming 2 member of our lodge better You see pa had been telling us how much good the Masons and Odd Fellows did, and said we ought to try and grow up good SC we could jine the lodges when we got big, and I asked pa if il would do any hurt for us to have a play lodge in my room and pur- tend to nishIate, and pa said It wouldn't do any hurt. He said it would improve our minds and learn us to become men. So my chum and me borried goat that lives in the livery stable.
 "You see, my chum and me had to carry the goat up to my room when pa and ma was out riding, and he blatted so We had to tie a handkerchief around his nose, and his feet made so much noise or the floor that we put some baby's socks on his feet. Gosh, how frowsy goat smells, don't it?" ] should think you Masons must have strong stum- mix.
 "Well, sir, my chum and me practiced with that goat until he could bunt picture of a goat every time. We borried book beer sign from a saloon man, and hung it on the back of chair, and the goat would hit it every time. That night pa wanted to know what we were doing up i'll my room, and I told him we were playing lodge and imprOv- ing our minds, and pa said that was right, there was n Hlrg H.t dlt 1o.s cE our aga -a-l much good as to initiate mo and stose ov useful Knowledge. Then Er7y ghum askea Da if he lI...- want to come ur aud take ,ne grand bumpeI a-2Tse. and pa laffed and said he didn't care if he did, just 10 encourage the boys in innocent pastime that was so improving to our intel lect. We had shut the goat up in a closet in my room and he had got over plating, so we teok off the handk erchief, and he was eating some of my paper collars and skate straps. We went up stairs and told pa to come up pretty soon and give three dis trinct raps, and when we asked him who was there he must say "a pilgaric who wants to join your ancient order and ride the goat.' Ma wanted to come up, too, but we told her if she came in it would break up the lodge, cause a woman wouldn't keep secret, and we didn't have any side sad- dle for the goat. Say, if you never tried it, the next time you initiate a man in your Mason's lodge you sprinkle a little kyan pepper on the goats beard just afore you turn him loose. You can get three times as much fun to the square inch of goat. You wouldn't think it was the same goat"
 "Well, we got all fixed, and pa rapped, and we let him in. and told him he must be blindfolded, and he got on his knees a-lafing, and tied towel around his eyes, and then I turned him around and made him get down on his hands also, and then his back was right toward the closet door, and I put the book beer sign right against pas clothes. He was lafting all tl.e time, and said we boys were full of fan as they made lem, and we told him 1t was solemn occasion, and we wouldn't permit no levity, and
