MORE CONVENTION OF 1872 NOT AN EXPONENT OF
TIE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
SPRINGFIELD. Mass, Nov. 1.-Speaker Blaine
addressed largo audience Of Republicans at the City
Hall last night urging the claims Of the Republican
party on the grounds that the Democrats do not heartily
support the Constitutional amendments. Mr.. Blaine

FOREBODINGs OF DEFEAT.

THE LEADERS OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IN con-
CONGRESS RESPONSIBLE FOR ITS DEMORALIZA-
TIoN-DIsGUsT AND DECENTRALIZATION on EVERY
SIDE.
from tn. Washington Repsbhan Naturalization Rep)
In this fourteenth year of its power it cannot
be denied that tue republican party enters into tue con
test nnder burdens which 1t has unknown IN the past;
that the chances OF its success are less than they
have been in any one previous ~of,years :"
lnck than to good management. WHY
Only one answer can be Given-the party ITSELF
It, and it alone is responsible FOR the position in which
odds that stare us In the face. We may win,
probably We SHALL but the mass OF the party should
charge that 1t has been put there by its socaled
without element of leadership, who.
in its legislation. have dragged the party down from
the commanding position 1t held even two years ago.
sntmy '0 Eve have s 'a' majority eft Of the
people OF the country" but mat t, majority ,h
IL IS unconscious OF its own strength-that one OF Its
generals in the House almost repudated by the men
all the way from 1900 TO 1900 votes. We mean
the Chairman of the Appropriations Committee
Of the Nous Oi en Of
the Ways and Means Committee What did either OF
them the last session OF Congress to strengthen
the party before the country They had the command
OF the House; they bad the control Of legislation
they had the destines OF the party In their

GATE Department of the Governments aud were the

What wonder that there disgust and dissatisfaction

Boston Boot and Shoe Market.

WEDNESDAY. July 80.
The shipments Of boots and shoes from this mar
ket to places outside of New England for the past
week have been ,I66 cases, against AZ, 900 cases
for the corresponding week last year.
Total shipments for the first six months OF the
year, ,49l cases, against joG54 cases Tor same
period last year
The shipments from Lynn for the week have been
i2GG cases, against 429S cases for the week last
year.
The shipments from Haverhill tor the week have
been 33IS cases, against 2327 for the cores
ponding week last year.
The demand for boots has been large, and the
fact that there were no stocks at all in the interior
has led to an unusual demand fornearly ali grades
Of mems boots. The fact that all the boot manu-
facturers want the best sole leather and the oldest
houses in the trade have never known SO large
demand for the best grades of sole leather, goes to
show that our manufacturers are determined to
furnish u good article, If prices are low. There
have been larger orders for brogans from the
southern trade and this branch Of the business is
improving. There Is a steady inquiry for the
heavier grades of women's work, and nearly all
descriptions of leather goods suitable for women's
wear have been IN lair request. There is also more
inquiry Tor children's shoes from Western buyers,
ami business in this departing mt is improving. The
New England trade thus far has been light, and
dealers will not be likely to purchase then stocks
until next month. There is large increase in the
shipments to southern markets, and trade in that
section bids fair TO be larger than anticipated
as the crops assume more promising aspect.
