II was always little singular to us
that when an imrecunious criminal
was unable TO hire alawycr, the court
would appoint ono or more members
of j. bar @ defend the paupers. and;
ger err ly, the bet ta'ent at the la
would3be nssigne dto him. The strange
part IF il is that the Attorney in such a
case would accept the appointment
and work and speak for the life or lib
.rty OF the accused, without fee or re-
ward other than that Of a doubtful
gratitude of The criminal. But such
defense is not often that kind which
comes from big Zee, well secured. II
the State would guarantee fee to the
Attorney in cases of this kind, the de-
ferlrnt would Le much more ably &c
feliel.

Mr.. BIaine,S Defense,

Blaine like Bristow has an effective way
of trampling out slanders; and they both
grow stronger by every assault upon them. -
Utica Herald.
There will be mighty reaction in his favor
public and private record is read.-Baltinaore
american.
The explanation of Mr.. Blaine is a full and
complete vindication, and will be so regarded
and ackno wledged by every honorable man
who reads it.-Boston Traveller.
1t is difficult to see how any fair-minded
person can read Mr.. Blaine's speech without
being fully convinced both of the falsty and
the groundlessness of the scandalous charge
recently made against him.-Ne,o York Mail.
Mr.. Blaine has promptly and emphaticaly
denied the accusations that have been made
against him in reference to the receipt of
money from the railroads. His speech car
ries conviction to all reasonable men,
Brooklyn argus.
That Mr.. Blaine conclusively answered the
specific charge of a corrupt or questionable
financial transaction with the Union Pacific
Railroad Company, relative to the Little
Rock and Fort Smith bonds, must be con-
fessed by even the most prejudiced of his ac-
cusers.-Philadelphia Times.
The denial stands good until the accusation
is proved, or better evidence than we have
yet given of its truth, by Mr.. Harrison, also
an eminent Republican, though not so dis
tingIished as Mr.. Blaine. We shall prefer to
depart so far from Mr.. Blaine's custom re-
specting Democrats, as to believe in the deni-
al until there is evidence of an opposite char
acter.-N. Y. Express.
