A GOOD deal of comment has been made
upon the wonderful achievements of Blaine
and Conkling in the management of their
party; and doubtless events have lifted
them into new prominence as presidential
candidates Mr., Blaine would seem to
have the inside track from the ability with
which he has led his party to victory in
Maine.

Gov. Hendr cks, it is reported by the Clncln-
natl Gazette, takes the election IN Ohio with a
smiling philosophy that gives the impression
that he is not altogether so sorrowful over the
result as might be supposed by some people.
He says he "knows that is So" that Tilden
very much desired the success OF Ewing. The
result, he thinks, will strengthen John Sher-
man greatly, and the friends of Blaine Will
claim much. of the credit, but for all that, Grant
will scoop the republican nomination. He has
thought so all along, and a year ago "bet a
cane with Martindale to that effect.'

How the Layards Saved Marshal
SerTanO.

Lady Layard, the wife of the British
ambassador at Constantinople, is a hand
some woman, gifted with a large heart
and great energy. Her kindness to the
suffering Turkish refugees has won from
them the most enthusiastic gratitude.
And it is not in Turkey only that her self
devotion and courage are appreciated.
While her husband was stationed in Mad
rid as British minister, Marshal Serrano,
the ex-regent, pursued by the Republi-
cans on an accusation of conspiracy sought
refuge at the British legation. AS this
residence was considered unsafe for him,
the Layards carried him in disguise to. San
tander. On arriving at the railway sta
tlon the. marshal gave his arm to Mrs. La
yard, while Mr. Layard walked behind
with the bags, and in this manner they
got safe into the train through crowd
Of excited Republicans At the .princi-
pal stations on the road the Reds search
ed the carriages, but Mr. Layard stood at
one door of their compartment and. Mrs.
.Layard at the other, and prevented the
men from entering, claiming the right Of
free passage as British representatives.
at Santander tug was engaged to take
Serrano to Biarritz, and at the last mo-
lnent two civil guards came up and de-
manded permission to search it; Mr.. La
yard stood in the gangway and refused to.
admit them, saying that the strange pass
enger was a messenger being sent by the
British minister, They being desisted, },
the tug started and Serrano was saved.
For the part she had taken in the matter
Mrs. Layard received the thanks Of the
British government in a special dispatch
the only instance on record Of a lady
being so honored.

Burdette's Baby.

An Eastern map, a subscriber to the
Burlington Haaokeye has been intensely
interested, during the winter, by the let
ters which Burdettc, the humorist, has
Written home to that paper. Most of all
was he affected by the many references
which the writer made te babies, whom
he met upon the trains in his travels.
Every line in this connection breathcd
sentiments of tender love for the little
creatures. ...-. s=F =e. q t.s..-.s. i,
"Ah," unused the Eastern man, s'what
noble fellow this is. | should know
that he was a father himself, and that his
own baby was his greatest source of JOY"
Last week the Eastern man chanced to
be in Burlington, and something impelled
him to call upon the man who had delight
ed him so often with his expressions Of
fathcrly affection. AS he approached the
house in which he had been informed the
humorist with the tender heart lived, he
noted an open window, through which
the form of a man, bending over a desk
and buisly writing, could be seen. The
Eastern man was about to ring, when he
was pctritied by hearing a great crash,
followed by mans voice, in accents, of
the widest description, circulating
CHOW, there you go! I knew you'd
haul that ink onto yourself, you young
scamp! Here! Mrs. B.. somebody
everybody-come and take tins horrible
little wretch away. I'd like to know
how you think a feller is going to write
anything with a baby everlastingly hang
ing around. Oh, yes, now, yell-that's S
right -whoop it up-oh, go it'll There
Ssh, 'sh, hushy, hushy Dry up, or FIJI
oh, won't somebody come and put this
volcano out! There, Mrs. B., take him,
give him barrel Of laudanum, and if
you don't keep him out of here in the
future, I'll swap him for a brindle pup
The nerveless hand of the Eastern man
dropped from the bell-pull, and he had
just strength enough left to stagger
across the street, where he sat down on a
stoop and famed himself with a lath
until he revived. Then he took the first
train for home.- Rockland Courier. 4 4!
