As Major Delany's nomination for Lieuten

revelation to a good many well-meaning
pcrnnr, including the gal'ant and Godfear
*Ing KTTsliTr^"7i'iid*hi3 honest "followers:
[From tho Orangeburg Free Citizen Oct. 10."J
Some three years since a3 wo wore
traveling on the Charleston District as
presiding Klder the coloicd people on
John's Island were making a great ctTort to
build them a church, which was to be an
improvement on their log church known as
ihc ".lohn Wesley Church." All of their
scutily earnings thov could secure far the
object, by iheir frequent collections for the
purposes were deposited with a trustworthy
treasurer; But it so happened that the
Treasurer died, und Mnj. M. K. Detaiiy was
en.)-j ? t o aei as one of the appraisers of his
property. He found among other things
left by the deceased, an envelope, carefully
marked "Church money," which contained
$200. The Major appeared very anxious to
have the money saved, and gained the con
sent of ihe woman in charge of tho premises
to let him have it for safe keeping, giving
to her his receipt for the same. Sooi aft or
the Trustees of the church called for their
money, and the woman told ihem that the
Major had carried it aw.iy, and gavs them
the receipt. They hasienod to Charleston
to get their funds. Huttlioy were told by
the Major it was in the Bank: hut they
were none the richer for this, as he gave
them no means to got it. Tho trustee-* tried
for A year to get their money, but io no
purpose. He claimed finally to have invested
in county orders and could not get it for
them. As we subsequently intended a
qunrtorly meeting at this church the re
ceipt was banded us, that if possible we
might aid I hem in getting their money; and
we passed it over to Hon. J. B. Campbell, a
well known lawyer of Charleston, for collec
tion, lie wrote a kind, gentlemanly letter
tu the Major asking his attention to it, but
0i he got nothing iu return but loud talk
and worthless promises front the Major, of
which lie has always a surplus, he sued for
i s collection, but without being able to get
bold of any security for tho dobt.
Two years after this money was taken by
t bo Major wo ".found t his church on John's
Is'aud whorsbiping in a new church build
ing, but badly embarrassed by debt. We
went again to tho Major to make a personal
appeal, and plead for this suffering society
struggling under their difficulties?o aslt
or justice, not for mercy or charl.y. Ho
said be ought to pay it, and askc I us It io
with him to the clerk of court in Charles
ton. He then requested the clerk t o turn
over to our order $220 of a judgment in his
I'm or against the County of Charles*.un,
wliieli record we suppose was d dy made.
Hut on calling upon the County Treasurer
he informed us that judgme nts I ud been
obtained against the Major that won d en
tirely cover his c'aim against the county
and would lcavo no margin for our poor
church. Wo then wrote tho Major as our
last resort, in Jim* last, that if ho did not
settle tho mattor with our attorneys. Camp -
bell and Whaloy, wo should publish tho
facts involved in the caso. He wuat finally
and made another promise to pay, but no
guarantee, and at last accounts he had
made no" payment. Tho Major has no cxA
cuac for thus deliberately tdeftau<Ln,3 %i
poor colored church, as lie had no business
?with the inonoy to keep or spsnJ. If ha
ever desigued or wished to pay it, h? Iia/;
had ample means as well as an ample ojjpoi'p
tunity. After the last State election G?rer
nor Moses paid him at one time the sum of
one thousand dollars for tho noise he made
to secure the Governor s election ! In ad
dition to this, the Major has had a position
in the Custom Houso, on a good salary, by
which long before this ho could havo re
turned to this church the scanty savings
they bad gathered to build a house in which
to worship God.
The Hand of Ehjiu.
It having been publicly charged by At
torney-General Melton, and others, during
the progress of tho present campaign, that
Senator Dunn, who is the foster-parent of
the Green and Dcl.mey movement, was in
favor of the payment of the conversion
bonds and Blue Ridge scrip, twin frauds
upon the Stato, that gentleman took occa
sion recently to deny it in a way fur more
emphatic than it was convinoing to an no
prejudiced mind. His disclaimer has call
ed forth letters from Mr. Hardy Solomon,
the President of tho Stato Depositor/, and
Treasurer Cardoso, ? he latter"of which we
annex. Ab Mr. Solomon's communication
corroborates the s.alcmcnts of Mr. Cardo/.o
i' is not necessary to publish it. To these
Statement WO dlvc'ct careful attention as
they are exceedingly significant. Wore
Mr. Dunn simply a Senator, the public
would care very little Hi at lie thought of
tho bond and scrip swindles, but as the
earnest hdvosatq of both, and, at the same
time, of a ticket representing which ho unc
tous'.y call ?'honest government" it is worth
wdr'.e, we think, we think, for our Demo
cratic friends to enquire whether thay evn
a(fo.-d to support nominations dictated fo
them l>y him. The voice of Mr. Dunn call
ing for honest government in South Ciroli
na may be the "voice of Jacob," but the
hand of Mr. Dunn feeling its way do wn in
to the vaults of the treasury is un loubtcd
tbe "hand of Esa u."

I ; CoLUvni.v, S. C, October 8, 1874.
! Hon. Samuel If. Mellon, AHorney-General
South Carolina,
Sit:?In reply to yours of this tlnte, re
questing a written statement of tho conver
sation we hold on the letters and report of
Senator T. (\ Dunn, I have tho honor to
state, that in tho month of June last Mr.
Dunn made n report tome of whit ho con
sidered irregularities in the of ipveru 1
j classes of the bonds authorized to b j fund oil
by the general assembly l ist winter:
I learnt from you, and aftor.xy ir'l.i froai
himself, that he^Jrid written yot re | t?.< tin-*
you to enjoin and rest rain t'*e exccv.tioa
r?f llmlnm.,-f*'*~lm&m*r '
The irregularities alleged aro these. That
the bonds referred to were authorized to
be sold within twenty-four in uit'is after J the
passage of the acts, and the be discovered
thnt the parties to whom Ihu boaLs were hy
pothecated sold them after iho expiration
of the twenty four month-', notwithstanding
the hypothecation took place before that
period; nnd tho State had received tho mon
ey authorized to he raisod thereon.
This si ruck me as a very trifling reason
for so grave a step, and that at L">sf such
an objection would bo regarded ns merely
technical; and Mowing Senator Dunn q'niic
well from a close and careful Observation
of his character for the last two years in
the' Senate, and especially his conduct in
advocating the payment ofthc Blue Ridge
scrip last winter when lie tried to revive
the subject even after the Legislature had
emphatically refused to pay it, I immedi
ately euneliided that the allogj I reason was
a mere pretext, and that Senator Dunn ha 1
some ulterior object in view. If therefore,
set myself to work to find it out.
In conversing with Senator Dunn ono
day iu my office, I asked whut was his real
object in trying to prevent the execution of
the funding act, which I thought so benefi
cial lo the Staic. He said .ho wishod the
execution of the act delayed until, by sup
pleiiieu .il legislation no\t winter, hi *co i'd
pel the "conversion bomV |and the "Bluo
Uidgc scrip" included iu the lettlemsa.
In further conversation with Senator
Dunn, I inferred that tnis method was pur
sued to compel me to withdraw my opposi
tion to these two swindles.
This conversation I afterwards communi
cate I to you, and authorised you to make
what ever use of it you thought proper
