CONKLING AND BLAINE.

CONKLING AND BLAINE. 1t is
we'll known there has tor years beer
personal hostility between Blaine
and Conkling. 1t originated in d
debate in the House Of Representa-
tives, at which time the two compli
mented each othes as follows:
Ten years ago Mr.. Blaine and
Mr.. Conkling had a lively contro
versy in the House and expressed
their opinions of each other quite
freely. In the progress of the dis.
cussiOn Conkling said: off the
gentleman from Maine had the least
idea how profoundly Indifferent
am to his opinion upon the subject
lie has been discussing, or upon any
other subject pertinent to me,
think that he would hardly take the
trouble to rise here and express his
opinion, and, as it is a matter of ell
tire indifference to me what that
opinion may be, l certainly will not
detain the House by discussing the
question whether it is well or ILL.,
founded, or by noticing what he
says" He concluded by calling
Blaine's conduct "ungentlemanly,
impertinent, and having nothing
whatever to do with the question:"
Blaine closed the discussion as fol-
lows: GAS to the gentlemen's cru
ell sarcasm, hope he will not be too
severe. The contempt of that large
minded gentleman is so willing !;
his naughty disdain, his grandilo-
quent swell, his majestic, superemi
nent, overpOwering turkey .gobbler
strut has been so crushing to myself
and all the members of this House
that l know that it was an act OF
the greatest temerity for me to ven.
ture upon controversy with hint
But, sir, / know who is responsible
for all this. know that within the
last five weeks. as members of the
House will recollect, an extra strut
has characterized the gentleman's
bearing. 1t is not his fault. 1t is
the fault of another. That gifted
and satirical writer, Theodore Tilton,
of the New York Independent, spent
some weeks recently in this city.
His letters published in that paper
embraced, with many serious state.
ments, a little jOcOse satire, a part
of which was the statement that the
mantle Of the late Winter Davis
had fallen upon the member from
New York. The gentleman took it
seriously, and it has given his stru
additional pompOsity. The resem.
blance is great. 1t is striking. Hy-
perion to Satyr, Thersites to Her
cules, mud to marble, dung hill to
diamond, singed cat to Bengal
tiger, whining puppy to roaring
lion. Shade of the mighty Davis,

The scandal-mOngers ought to
be wise enough in their generation
to know that between now and the
Cincinnati Convention, all stories
calculated to injure either of the
leading candidates will be regarded
with the greatest suspicion by the
public. Unless they are supported
by some very strong prima facie
evidence. there is no use expecting
the people to take much stock in
them. Their motive is too obvious.

A BILL that was passed by the
Democratic majority in the House
without attracting much notice, re-
peals the law which forbids the APP.
pointmeht to any commission in the
army or navy Of any person who
served the Confederate States in a
military, naval or civil capacity.
Should the repeal of this law pass
Congress and receive the Presidents
signature, there is nothing 10 him
der Semmes being made Conmmo-
dore in our navy, or Gen. Forrest
or Beauregard receiving a command
in the army. And who questions
that if Democratic President ere
in office the military and naval ser
vice would promptly be filled up
with rebel officers promoted over
the heads of the men who had de
feated them, and ordering round
the troops against whom they had
for four years directed rebel bate
ries. The Democratic House has
found mighty little time TO pass nee
essary legislation at this session,
but it found time to pass this au-
daciouS measure. Reconciliation,
peace and harmony are excellent
things, but the time should never
come when an eX-rebel officer shall
be eligible to command federal
troops. We must draw the line
somewhere. 1t will not do again to
risk the national armament in the
hands of the men who betrayed it.

The Maine Farmer urges upon

ing wheat this spring wherever there
is land that ia suitable for it, viz.
strong, dry soil, of fine filth and suf'
ticiently we'll fertilized to give a
strong growth of straw and to insure
good filling out Of the heads, but not
over rich. The trouble has been
that farmers have become discOur-
aged by some uniavorabIe years with
this grain, and have failed to SOW 1t,
and thus very soon drifted away
from it as one Of the chief crops Of
the farm. The. crop was q failure
in some instances last year, but this
should not influence farmers against
trying it again this year. The ad.
vice which the Farmer gives to its
readers is to go on sowing wheat
and depend upon it for the bread OF
their families 4; to SOW early, SOW
late, and SOW in the middle, and the
result will not bring disappOint-
ment.
