STATE CAPITAL JOTTlNGS.
HARRISBURG, PA, June II, 81

HARRISBURG, PA, June II, so.
The early part pf this week was
char atacterized by that excitement which
you generally see in the fall on the
last day of heated campaign. This
being the home Of Cameron there were
of course large number Of Grants
admirers who initiated Don's bold,
braggart style, and assured everybody
that the General was sure to be nom
mated. Blaine, however, had equally
as large following, but they were
people of a different stamp. Though
fearing their idols defeat, but were
quiet and hopeful, and willing to bide
the result, making no threats, but
keeping their own counsels. One
strong Blaine man, who is manufac.
turer, however, was very open as to
his feelings, going so far as to instruct
his workmen to support any candidate
but Grant, and that if he should be
the nominee, to support the Demo
cratic conventions choice, no matter
who he be. 1t is strange fact that
since the nomination it is impossible
to find anyone who was in favor Of
Grant, though Blaine's friends are as
plenty as before his defeat, and they
are open in saying that though the
nomination is good one, and that
they will support it warmly, yet they
are disappointed at their chiefain's
defeat. He seems to be a second
Henry Clay, a man worshipped by the
people who are wild to support him,
but who are prevented by the
scheeming politicians. Blaine is every
inch a nobleman, and again deserves
the thanks of the Republican party
for his loyalty to the party in retiring
when yet the scale might have
turned in his favor, and throwing his
force to rival to defeat the scheme of
a trio whose whole Shought was rule
or ruin. Cameron, Conkling and
Logan being men of wealth as we'll as
station are spoken of in referring to
their actions, as shrewd and fearless ;
were they poor men, lower in rank,
they would be characterized as rufians
only fit TO run a delegate convention
or primary election in city where
it was necessary to have such men to
cope with rOughs ofa like character.
During the hours while the ballotiug
was going on the streets in front ofthe
telegraph offices were blocked with an
auspicious crowd which did not en-.
tirely disperse until hours afterward
staying to discuss the strength of the
ticket, and conjecture who would be

the nominee Of Cincinnati convention.
A meeting was held at the Court
House in the evening, which was ad.
dressed by numerous gentlemen Of
prominence, after which band was
taken around and the different men of
note, including the absent "Don" were
serenaded. Philadelphia's delegation
passed through here on Wednesday
evening on their way home, where,
when they arrived, they were given a
monstrous reception, numerous clubs
participating. Music, fireworks, en-.
thusiasm &c., &c, in profusion. The
"triumvirates" love for the party is
already shown by their open avowal
that the ticket may be defeated so that
in 1884 there may be call from the
people for the old commander. These
men are for SELF not party, and should
be routed out of the party, as they do
it more harm than good. Mark nv
words: Blaine will stump the United
States for the ticket, while Cameron
and ConklIng will cit idly looking on
not doing hands turn to assure sue
cess.

Garfield and Arthur.

Following are brief sketches OF the
distinguished gentlemen who will fill
the offices of President and Vice Pres
ident four years hence:
James A. Garfield, the nominee of
the Republican party for President,
was born in Orange, Cuyahoga county,
Ohio, November 10, 1881. Ills parents
were natives of the New England
States. BY the death of his father he
was while yet small boy, thrown
upon his own energies and resources
for a livelihood. AT the age of sixteen
he drove horse on the Ohio & Penn
sylvania canal, and in various other
employments he padded his own
canoe" successfully over the waters of
varied fortunes, and entered Williams
College, Mass, where he graduated in
1855. After graduating, he returned
to the West, and during a period of
three years was president of a collegi.
ate seminary at Hyram, Portage
county, Ohio. In 1859 he was elected
to the State Senate for the term of
two yeare, and in 1860 was admitted
to the bar as a practicing attorney.
Upon the breaking out of the rebel.
lion, he set about raising a regiment,
and was made Colonel of the Forty
second Ohio. He served with credit
in the West was promoted to the
rank of Brigadier General, January
10, 1862; YVES appointed Chief of the
staff of the army of the Cumberland,
and was promoted to the rank of
Major General September 20, 1868.
After the battle of Pittsburgh Land.
ing in which he participated, be was
taken ill, and on his recovery was
ordered to Washington and detailed
as member of the Fitz John Porter
court-martial. In October, 1862 he
was elected to Congress, taking his
seat in December 1868, and has been
elected to every Congress since then
from the Western Reserve district.
He has servad from the 3Sth TO the
10th Congress, inclusive, covering
period of seventeen years. Last winter
he was el3cted to the United States
Senate, to succeed Judge Thurman on
the 4th of March next.
General Chester A. Arthur, the
nominee of the Republican party for
the Vice Presidency, is one of the best
known politicians in the State of New
York. He is man of high character,
strict integrity, and of fine intellectual
power. He is native ef the State of
New York, and is now close upon fifty
years of age, For the most part of
his life he has been engaged in mer-
camille pursuits. He served in the
war of the rebellion, winning his way
to the rank of Major General. During
the period that he filled the position
of Collector of the Port of New York,
be was noted for his fine executive
ability. The Office was exceptionally
we'll managed, and when President
Hayes removed him along with Cor.
nell and Sharpe, it was expressly
stated that no fault was found with
his administration of the Office. He
was removed because, in defiance OF
the famous civil service order of the
President, he took an active part in
State politics, serving on the State
Central Committee and going to con-
ventions. He was one of Conkling's
most trusted lieutenants, and has been
frequently spoken of late as a candi.
date for the United States Senate to
succeed Senator Herman.
