Washington, June lG. After the final ballot
was announced Mr.. Blaine rode out with his
eldest son and was received with loud cheers
wherever crowds were assembled upon the streets.
Mr. Blaine read dispatches throughout the day in
his library in company with several of his friends
whom he continually assured that Hayes would
ultimately be nominated. lie was fully impress
ed with the probability of successful combna-
ton against him, and except during the twenty
minutes following the 9th ballot, did not expect
the nomination. He was altogether the coolest
and least excited of the company.
During the evening his residence was crowded
with callers whom Blaine received with cheerful
ness, exhibiting no trace whatever of disappoint-
ment. Discussing the events of the day he says
the immediate cause of the failure of his friends
to secure his nomination was the holding back of
Votes from him from Penn. after the third ballot.
This Mr.. Blaine attributes to fictitious strength
temporarily lent to Hartranft from time to time
by the Conkng forces, which made it possible
for minority of the Penn. delegation to urge
that their candidate could not properly be dropped
while he was still apparently gaining votes.
Mr.. Blaine has sent to Messrs. Hamlin, Hale,
Frye and Stevens the following despatch
Bear to all my friends who have nobly and
devotedly stood by n c, the profoundest express
sions Of my hearts warmest gratitude.

sented Mr.. Cameron being at Cincinnati and Mr.
Robson having left Washington this morning
for New York.
Secretary Fish read telegram from the Amer
lean legation at London, recouuting the release
of Winsow, the Boston forger. Considerable
discussion followed this official announcement,
and though the diplomatic correspondence has
not yet ended, it is regarded by the cabinet that

the subject of extraditon belongs. These views
will be communicated to Earl Derby.

Grass is looking well. The great labor Of the
season has been to save the fruit crop from the
caterpillar Nearly all the old trees are entirely
stripped of their leaves and blossoms and in some
cases where the orchards have successfully been
cleared of their first lots they were again beseiged
by swarms Of the pests from the forests and other
orchards. Others have been saved by putting
protection around the trees, such grease. tar OF
soft soap. The apple crop must necessarily be
very light here.

Grass and grain are looking first rate here.
The catterpillars are not so destructive as they
were in some other towns. We are afflicted with
the large white grub worm that works on the
roots of the grass and other crops. In some Sec
tons they do great deal Of damage.
Farmers are feeling rather blue. Wood and
potatoes are their principal sources Of income, and
both are very cheap. Some farmers have several
hundred bushels Of old potatoes in their cellars.
They bring but Is cents per bushels delivered at
Skowhegan.
The sympathy of tine community is all with
Herrin, in the quarrel that resulted in the death
of Harmon. His conduct has been singular ever
since his separation from his wife, and he was
much taken down in mind and body. He had
been badly treated by the Harmon family, who
had sustained bad reputation.
