WASHINGTON, June 13.-Up to n late hour
tonight the tenor of numerous dispatches
received from Cincinnati Is such as to give
the friends of Blaine very great encourage
ment to hope that he will receive an early
nomination by the Republican Convention.
His friends in Cincinnati have been assured
by his physicians here that his sickness is
merely temporary matter, and they are
making the most OF these advices. AS n
consequence the Conkling men feel some
what crestfallen.
All kilograms report the Blaine adierents
iubiant, and more than ever enthusiastic.
| AZ mentioned in last nights dispatch, the
great known is vanishing into thin air.
| Blainc's friends declare that the vote OF
PENNSYLVANIA; which is assured to him, will
GIVE HIM THE NOMINATION
beyond the pcradventure of doubt,
and many Of them predict that it
will come on the first ballot. There
is strong disposition manifested to
make capital out Of Mr.. Blaine's present
physical suffering by bringing him forward
as physical martyr to the principles Of the
party; and there is no doubt that this line
Of action is showing delegates who have
been Jealous adhcrents Of other candidates
into Blaine's support. At the late hour at
which this telegram is written the general
opinion exposed in all public places in this
city is that Blaine will certainly be nomi-
mated, the admission being made, Of course,
that
| ANY UNFAyoRABiE CHANGE
in his present condition would diminish his
chances materially. The result, however,
in spite of the earnest declarations Of the
Blaine men, may still be regarded as matter
of some speculation.
The Bristow people, while earnestly at
work, are not gaining from the Morton and
Conkling element, as they expected to. Re-
publicms here So y that If Brstow wants the

Louis Convention, and not expect that favor
from Cincinnati.

with well-organized clubs in the interest OF
prominent candidates.
The Conkling men arc the most noisy,
and claim double the strength they have.

withdrawn after the second ballot his NOM
nation is certain.
Governor Hayes is prominent with all
classes for the second place on the ticket.
