Mr.. J. Donald Cameron has settled the re-
cent runners that he was coy and reluctant TO
take a scat in the cabinet by appearing at
Washington as soon as he was well enough
to go, and formally qualifying as secretary of
war. The public had been tod by sundry
newswriters that Mr.. Cameron, "did not seek
the office, disiked' 10 remove to Washington
and far preferred being the leader OF his party
in Pennsylvania 10 the trying duties of the
war Office The characteristic assurance with
which these statements were made quite stag
gered public opinion for The time; but it is
now evident that they were cut out of whole
cibtii, and probably with a view 10 take pub
lie attention away in part from the surmised
bid or bargain for tie vote of the Pennsylva-
MIA delegation at Cincinnati OF which dele
cation Donald Cameron is chairman That
story of the ''comtem plated declining is now
exploded; and with regard to the resi- of the
matter, the meeting OF the Cincinnati convcn-
ton will settle it. 1t can hardly be
maintained however, that Mr. Simon Came
ron has abdicated his time honored position
as mediator between Washington and Penn
sylvania, or as the channe! through which Of
ficial patronage flows for subsequent ds,ribu-
ton TO members of his party throughout the
State. The elder Cameron still maintains
these functions, but the younger is pointed
out ms the lineal Successor of his trust il being
thought better TO have il remain in the fami-
~. This is the clear method of looking at

BLAINE On Friday last witness from
Boston named Mulligan was before the Judicial
ny Committee investigating The charges against
Ex-Speaker Blaine, and complained TO the
committee that he had been deprived Of GER
tain letters by that gentleman bearing on the
the case that Blaine had promised TO
return them but had failed TO do so, thus
resoriiDg to a lie to gain possession Of the
same The committee demanded the return
of the letters to the witness but Blaine still re-
fused, hoping no doubt that he would be
brought before the House for contempt and
thus geta chance 10 play the martyr. Failing in
this, on Monday he rose to personal explana-
tion, charged the committee with acting I'M
fairly in his case and read to The House what
puTporied to be the contents of the letters.
They show him TO have been mixed up in con-
tracts TO furnish arms, stock speculations, &c.
lie charged Mr.. Knott with having suppressed
dispatch from one Of his former associates, in
his favor, and that gentleman administered to
him a scathng rebuke. He said
81 hurl the falsehood back into the teeth of
any man who makes n suggestion as to the
suppression OF That dispatch. Applause.

less Than thirty minutes after received il
read ii to several gentleman. But there was
no particular address in London from which
il purported to come, and did believe, and
am not altogether certain yet that ! do not be-
lieve, it was a fixed up job"
The New York Sun, speaking of this last
desperate effort of Blaine to extricate himself
from charges of corruption, truly says:
"Brother Blaine may have heen very much
excited in bis hypocrilca speech OF self-de-
tense in the House on Monday, but he did not
meet the charges that have been against him,
nor clear up those jobbing transactions in
which he has been involved. Blaine is a
dodger and tricksier, ms well n corruptionist
and the demonstration which he made was
merely got up as new cover to his operations.
What though two Of the members OF the COM
miitee by which his transactions have been
investigated were in the rebel army2 Does
that furnish answer to the exposures That
have been made? Blaine had the galleries
packed with his followers, and they cheered
his calculated display of blusier, but not by
smell means can he defraud the judgement Of
the country"

When Nulligan tells a serious story on Mr..
Blaine, which had so much truth in it that
the latter found it necessary TO resort TO n
very questionable stratagem, amounting to an
actual confession of guilt, 10 procure the let
ters which would have convicted him, Repub-
lican papers are filled with wrath aud sorrow
that man should tell so base a lie but
when Harvey tells most ridiculous rigmarole
about Speaker Kerr, they shake their heads
and look very solemn as they speak of the
high responsibility of the witness and the
seriousness of the charges. For unmi,gaied
cheek, commend us to the editor OF a Republi-
can newspaper.
