Senator Blaine does not aspire to be the
Republican candidate for President In 1880. be-
cause he believes tho Democrats will sweep the
country at that election. They will choose q
President who. according to Blaine. will sue
cumb to the South. and thus create q reaction
which will make Republican victory certain
and easy In 1884 That's the time when Blaine
wants the nomination. and he will direct his
efforts to that end For the present he is not
| for Hayes nor against him-he Is going to show
his consistency by giving Blaine solid sup
port, and will try to forget all about the Multi
gan letters aud the great danger from Mexico.
When he sees how the President Ia going to
come out. he will decide with great boldness
which party he belongs TO- which is all that any
body has right to ex pect at this time.

And now comes the dear old Pic, with
skirts tucked up, prancing at the DEMOCRAT
with broomstick. We have dropped our
sspewter spoon" into our ''bowl of pap have
we Well, now, that is too mean. How the
old Pic. did wriggle, and squirm and froth
and tear her shirt to get that bowl of pap and
didn't succeed, But is it nice now to abuse
the DEMOCRAT about papp Is it wicked, or
Immoral, or disreputable for news
paper to have a public printing con-
tract? III so. then what a sorry old jade
the Pc is, for good Lord, how she did try
to debase herself. II we had thought
there was anything wrong in doing the
State printing under contract, we never
would have undertaken it. But the Pic
seems to think 1t wicked, and yet she did her
level best to get the contract, and the
only honest, vigorous outburst of indig-
nation we ever heard from the old lady
was at her defeat in this very business.
Now dear Mrs. Pic, do display little
sense. And then the PIC. wants to know
why, il we knew the Times pretty little
balderdash alb ut hard-hearted rich women
and brutal merchants in New Orleans was not
true. we didn't say so like a little man.
Now. bless your old soul, we have got some
thing else to do and cannot afford to waste
time on such stuff. But now that we
think Of it, and the Pic. is indig-
nant at us for not speaking out "like a
little man on the Times little weak nonsense
why don't the PIC. talk out like dear sweet
little fellow about some of the rings and
monopolies%hich infest this city and State
we think it wouldn't open its dear old mouth
about some things in this city for thousand
dollar bill. Virtuous Pic. : but ungrateful.
we endeavored to pat you on the back and
run you against the Times, and you turned
.,nt,y, ms like an Infatuated vixen.

In that city. that we regard 1t our duty,
In behalf of our State and people. to make
special mention of it. And we do ~, not at the

nation derived from other parties, who had
occasion to witness and realize the special

On the approach Of the Governor to Chicago
he was intercepted by Mr. Potter Palmer
with Invitations to partake Of the hospitality
81 his grand hotel where preparations had
been made for his reception and entertain
ment. The Governor was compelled, with
many thanks TO decline these kind offers,
and on his arrival at Chicago occupied the
quarters engaged for him at the Grand Paci-
iic, where he was elegantly entertained, as
travellers usually are
Mr.. Palmer, not interfering with the Gov
errors establishment at the Grand Pacific,
requested the honor of his attendance at a
private dinner and festival given at the
Palmer House, and placed of his disposal his
splendid equippages to conduct the Governor
and his staff to the hotel

the invitation and attended the festivity. It
was magnificent affair. Tho splendid Egyp-
tian parlor of the Palmer House was appro-
prfated for the occasion. 1t is a room of

Of the most attractive features of this incom-
parable hotel.
Gov. Nichols and staff were received in
this room by Mr. Potter Palmer and his
elegant lady. by Col. Fred Grant and lady,
and several of the notabilities of Chicago
The dinner has been described to us by one
who partook OF Ii as one of the most elegant
and recherche affairs of the kind ever
given even in that city. We can safely
say, that Gov. Nichols and his friends
were most deeply impressed with the genial |
and graceful attentions and unbounded hos
pitality and kindness of Mr.. Palmer and his |
lovely wife. and their friends and that on |
his departure from Chicago, he bore with |
him the warmest remembrance and the most |
agreeable impressions of the people of that |
magnificent city.
