BLAINE'S OPINION.
Charles Francis Adams lliustrious Only
in Name.

III NdiIlC.
New York, May IA letter of
James G. Blaine's, written in Decem-
ber, 1875, has just come to light, which
seems to show what provoked Charles
Francis Adams recent statement to a
newspaper interviewer, rejecting Sc
verely upon Blaine. The party to
whom Blaine had conjunction with,
Sam Bowles and Nordhoff, urged
Blaine to abandon the hope of the
Presidency and go for Adams, and be-
come chief of the latter's party. Blaine,
in the scourse of his reply, said, ''The
cant and the nonsense which Bowles
and Nordhoff and yourself put forward
about Adams as the coming man both
amuse and enrage me. When he comes,
the Republican party is gone. 1t would
not be Adams fall, but his rise, that
would ruin. No, no Adams ever yet
hated party without taking the life
out of it, After sharply reviewing
the political history of the Adams fam
lily, to sustain the above proposition he
continued. Don't talk to me, then,
l pray, about nominating Charles Fran
els Adams as our candidate for the
Presidency, unless you mean death for
us without resurrection. The Repub-
llCdll party Cdl DC oohiC
candidates. and still have future; but
if it should win with Adams, it would
never bear fruit again.. The day of
his Inauguration would be the day of
its funeral. He is not the equal in
talent of his father or grandfather.
Although 1 have very slight personal
acquaintance with him, judge him to
have plentiful supply of the qualities
which made the Adamses the conspicu-
GUS failures among our early presi-
dents, and great lack of those charac-
teristics which, with all their faults
and failures as executives, still made
them justly illustrious in our annals.
The presidents who were great leaders
of men and of parties have been our
successful Observation-Disclosures and
Jefferson among the early presidents;
Jackson and Lincoln at latter periods.
The most shining examples among the
men who possessed in pre-eminent
degree the talent and aptitude for the
station were Hamilton, Dewitt Clinton,
Henry Clay, Seward, and Stephen A.
Douglass. But of not single quality
| of any one of them can you find the
least counterpart in Charles Francis
Adams. sStat magni hominis um-
bra'-he stands the shadow of mighty
name.'

The Mormon Question.

Washington, May 14.-Neither Gen.
Sherman nor the War Department has
any advices of any steps taken by the
Mormons for an uprising. If reports
to that effect be true, there is no doubt
the United States officers stationed
there wonld have reported upon them
ere this. The Department of Justice
is not aware of any hindrance to the
execution of the laws in that territory,
and will continue the prosecution of
alleged participants in the Mountain
Meadows massacre.

THE Consul General at Yokohama
was seriously ill, and had sailed, for
his health, to Hong Kong. 1t will be
remembered of Mr.. Van Buren, that
some time since charges were preferred
against him for malfeasance of office,
and this may have something to do
with his leaving. Mr.. Van Buren, is
not popular in Japan, and certainly, if
we may credit the reports that have
reached us about him, it is about time
he was relieved and sent home.

murdered by Indians for revenge, or by
white men for their gold, as they slept.

otherwise, she could do nothing of the

for some time past, on account of re-
