WASHINGTON, June 2.
On the reassembling of the sub
Judiciary Committee today, Mr.. Hun
toon, the Chairman, renewed his request
to Mr.. Blaine to present the letters taken
frem Muligan. Blaine recapitulated
the statement made yesterday by him in
relation to the letters, and said he had
submitted the letters to eminent legal
counsel, and bad received from them a
statement, which he read. In it Jeremiah
s. Black and Matt Carpenter, as counsel,
say they have examined all the letters,
and find nothing in them. bearing at all
upon the case now pending before the
committee, and they advise Blaine to, as
sert his right as an American citizen, and
resist to the utmost any attempt to take
from him any of these private letters.
They say that any attempt to do so
would be tyrannical and unjust. Mr..
Blaine then informed the committee
that, in accordance with this legal adj
vice, he would decline to produce the
letters or memorandum of their contents.

A California Episode.

This is story told me by Gen. John
Goshwilder, one of the leading capital
lists of California, and one of the really
good fellows of that State. One day in
the early times he was standing in q
pioneer shanty saloon, in company with
a great big fighter, who was the terror
of the camp and town. There was moth
ing that this giant could not whip, and
very little that he had not whipped.
This big fellow was sitting near the bar
when a stranger entered. He was new
conner in town. He was not more than
twenty five, slenderly built, pale, with
big eyes, delicate features, and q hand
like a girl. He stepped quietly up to
the bar and asked for glass of brandy.
The glass was placed before him, where
upon the bully rose from his chair, put
his big, brawny hand in front of the
youngster. took the brandy and drank
it. The young man said nothing, but
quietly laid down four bits and said
"Give me another glass of brandy"
The brandy was put out, the glass was
filed and the bully again reached for
ward, took the brandy and drank it.
The youngster put four bits on the
counter, and said, easily
"Give me two glasses of brandy"
The two glasses were put out, filed
and the bully the third time reached for
ward, took a glass and drank it. The
young man paid no attention even to the
giants pistols and knives, but taking
the other glass drank it and put down
dollar. Then, with easy manner, he
left the bar for the door, walked five or
six steps, turned like flash of lightning
and shot the bully through the heart.
As he walked out of the door he said to
one of the bystanders
That fellow might have hurt some
body, yet"

ton impracticable. or very strongly opposed,
they will concentrate ON Hancock.
The Iowa Republican convention Endorsed
Blaine, but gave the delegates no instructions.
The Louisiana Republican delegates to the
National convention are said to stand ten for
Morton and six for Blaine.
The Missouri delegatio to the st. Louis con-
vention is divided between Hendricks and Til

The Maryland Democratic delegates are for
