man took his seat Mr. Blaine opened on
him with one of his impetuous, tanHting crit
icisms, which serve at the same time to con-
fuse and irrita'e mis- oppoaenls. Judge Thur
man retUrted with much vehemence and some
feeling. then Mr. Blaine replied with Increasing
yigor making some dicQp;dadam applications
Of MIR. Thurmaus views which naturally
caused the Senator TO display some heat. At
tue close Of one Of Mr.. Baues most pointed
periods Mr.. Thurman sprang to bis feet, when
