BLAINE ON THunn TERM v0u

Especial Dispatch to the Boston uerals1

WAsHfraToE, Aug. t7.-~Mr. Blaine. a
short time ago, disclosed his polftical
programme to D. very prominent person
in the service of the government. He
said that 1t was q mistake to suppose
that he was looking to the presidency
in 1880. He was looking beyond 1880.
He hoped to see Grant renominated by
the Republicans In 1880, and be-
lleves he would be beaten. Then,
with Grant out Of the way and
an opposition President in power,
he believed the Republicans would
be- compelled to take him as their
candidate. He believes that the Es.
publican party is destined to defeat In
1880, although. Of course, he would not
say. 80 openly. Thus it appears ttiat
both Conkling and Blaine (for different
reasons) are In favor Of the renominu-
ton Of Grant in 1890. Conklipg believes
that Grant could be reelected, and
Blaine secs clearly that he could not.
Conkling's constant pulling Of Grant In
meant to keep him In view ns @ presi.
Dental candidate, and the Grant move

and best-organizsd political scheme

track and other dangerous and fiendish
work done. Trains are even stoned In
the daytime, and two gentlemen of this
city are now suffering from bruises re-
ce1ved In this manner while passing
over the Lehigh and Susquehanna road
to Scranton yesterday.
Down at Plymouth, where a great deal
OF lonely picket daty is done by the
State troops, soldiers have been shot at
from ambuscades at night, although so
far none have been harmed. In the
country the farmers are getting fierce.

given them they will be forced to band
together and drive the invaders out of

fest. These marauders commenced their
foraging in a respectful way, but they
have now grown bold, defiant and reck-
less.
More trouble is reported at Wanamie
tonight, and troops, it is thought. viii
be sent to that point before morning.
The proclamation OF Gov. Hartranfr
calling for three months volunteers has
set many to thinking that the soldiers
will not leave this section as soon as was
anticipated. There were many who
hoped the boys in blue would depart
this week, but they are now bitterly dis
appointed. IL such calamity should
happen as the removal OF the soldiers
just now there would be fiery times and
no mistake. More mines are idle in Lu-
zerne tonight than there were week
ago, and the end Ia by no means at
hand.

sympathy with this or any movement
that will tend to ameliorate the present
suffering Of the laboring classes, but
that to make the movement formidable
and effectual the greenback and labor
