THE SECRET CONGLAvE.
THIRD ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,

had few remarks which he wished |
to address to Mr.. McTavish, and he
would request that genllemnn's at
tentjon for few minutes.
Angus Mcravish having straiten-
ed his countenance and put himself
: into an aud torial attitude, tue Pre-
sident spoke as follows: "Mr Nc
! lavish, YOU are doubtless aware
that the leaders of the Calathum-
plan party are from Boston, Massa
| chusetts; and that Europeans are
simply tolerated in the party ranks
in order to influence votes. 1t is
therefore becoming in you, as we'll
as all others of the party who are
not leaders, to guide yourself with
silent circumspection. l am aware
that Mr.. Blunt was quite as guilty
as you have been in questioning the
policy that has been advocated by
the officers of tho Party but | have
reasons for not bringing him to
book, which are not proper to di-
vulge. You are Il sensible man, in
deed, all your nationality have that
reputation, and l think you can
"tumble" to the situation. Your
duty rs one of the Caathumpian
Party is to make no remarks during
the meetings. All the remarks are
TO be made by The trusted leaders,
and the subjects to be mentioned
and how they are to be handled
have all received attention before
hand. In case you should not be
aware of who the leaders are, | may
mention that the Rev. Amos Whang-
buster, and all the clergy of the
same sect, are the highest and most
valued. Next come the New Eng
land lawyers and the native practi-
TONERS of New England descent.
Lastly, the quacks, pettifoggers,
pimps, blackguards, adventures,
and other rascals which New Eng
land casts upon these shores. l
| would also have you to understand
| that, although the Whereabout ISL
, auds do not belong to the United
: States, they belong to New Eng
! land, not by right of discovery, but
by right of evangelical conquest. l
2 presume that you are sufficiently
acquainted with the English lang
uage to understand what | have said
to you, and 1 trust that you will now
u, govern yourself accordingly"
At the conclusion of the Presi-
dents remarks, Mr.. Mcravish ask
, ed that functouary whether he
5 could 'speer" n few words by way
4 of explanation; and upon being an
e swered in the affirmative, the fol-
II lowing queries were put:
/. Mac - Am tac huud my whist
: hear everything an say naething?
{ President-Ies.
Mac-No tae haze ony voice ava
= President-None whatever.
y Mac-Only work for votes, an
ca the Calalhumpian Party the best
on earth?
President-Ycs, that is just it.
Mac-Maister President, you may
tax yer Calathumpian Party to Cape
q Cod for me. | wash my hand:

in Phillip Strangeways next took th'
in floor, and it was evident that he was
laboring under unusual menta
lv strain. His remarks were address
il ed to the chair as follows: ut ha
H. always been my endeavor by ever,
an means to exclude, not only Ger
~ mans, but all Europeans, from th'
~ deliberations Of Our party and als'
xu from all benefits which our part,
I'd confcrs upon its members. Tue re

ire tive, Misrepresentation, deceit, an
so even lies if other weapons are M
xii strong enough. If had my way
so would hang shoot or behead ever
,an European and every American wi
civ abetted them"
of Rev. A. Whangbuster rose to
the point of order. He could 'hard
iyo conceive that the great Calathum
pIy ian Party could be converted into
band of assassins, and he wou
counsel the members to be tempe

exit, but enough were lett TO sil
