NASHVILLE Cor. Troy Times.
Blackburn is q genuine Illustration OF a
Southern gentleman, sir" He was a cavalry
man in the rebel army, and still affects
clothes cut in military style. His face is
smooth save for a long, dropping mustache.
and his eyes, once bright, are now a little
suggestive Of the good old Bourbon of which
Kentucky is SO proud. But he il a hearty,
whole-souled man. The ladies love him, and
he is very gallant. Mrs Blackburn l have
never seen here, though his daughter comes
on almost every winter. To every one who
knows him he is simply 40" while he is
hearty and free with all. 1t is pleasant to
see him make his way through the corridors
of the capitol and see how generally the
crowd recognizes and salutes him. You sell
dom SEQ him on the floor. He cares nothing
for routine business. Once in a while he gets
interested In something, and makes a speech.
That is always enough to draw a crowd.
Blackburn can talk we'll Perhaps he is a
little impetuous and frothy, but always in
teresting. Simply as a presiding officer he
would make n good speaker, and you know
ne came within n few votes of it 1871. In
the evening he is always ready for a lark.
Last winter you could generally find Proc
tor Knott, Phil Thompson and a few other
choice spirits at his rooms enjoying G. quiet
game Of cards, with plenty OF sugar and
whisky. But over in the senate he will be an
entirely different man. You won't hear any
more of Blackburn after the 4th of March,
1855. His wit, his swift weapons OF attack
in parliamentary contests, will go for moth

thick, rich oil to the surface. The oil will
begin to gather in two OF three days, or more
quickly IL the days are exceedingly hot, when
it is dipped up with a ladio and strained, if
necessary, into large barrels provided for the
purpose. 1t is generally reckoued that a
quintal of fish pronounced kentan will
furnish a gallon of oil, but sometimes the
livers are of a poor quality and will not pro
duce so much. At the end of the season the
blubber remaining from the livers after all
the oil has been extracted is used, boiled, to
rub over the roofs of houses, and is an ex-
cellent material to prevent the rain from
soaking through. It is also saved and fed to
the dogs during the winter mixed with other
food. 1t is thus that Labrador people learn
to ecoDomiEe and use even those naturally
waste productions, the remn1nts of their
seasons profit. You can easily imagine the

Speaking of Boston ministers, the Rev.
Joseph Cooks Monday morning preludes,
questions, and lectures are not a great sue
cess this year. For some reason or other he
has lost his boom, says nothing notable nor
peculiar, doesn't misquote Herbert Spencer
and John Stuart Mil with his former nuency,
and falls far short of making a sensation.

listeners, and the galleries, in which free
seats are granted to publicans and sinners,
are not packed as the lecturer would ike to
have them every Monday morning. But
still he has "A plenty to hear him of one sort
or another, and is always happiest when he
talks Mr.. Cook is just now disturbed over
the la-wlessness in the south, advises the or
ganization of law-and-order leagues among
the negroes, and wants three or tour great
newspapers to be established as organs of
the society. The proposition has caused
much smiling and comment here, for Mr..
Cook is not looked upon as a very practical
man. 1t must be said to his credit that the
preludes to the lectures are usually interest
'ng. He would have better audiences il he

had many talks with both Republicans
and Democrats on political prospects.
He was surprised al the large number of
Democratic business men he found who
expressed themselves to the effect that
they would have felt very well satisfied if
Arthur had been nominated. The Re-
publicaus for the most part, while not in
avor of Blaine as their first choice, are

Blaine fans the flames and by his misrepre-

separate, by a line of hatred, the two sections
of our common country. AS for the poor ne

it is a matter of record that Blaine has never,
in Congress or out of it, done anything for
them, and the more intelligent among them
know it. The colored people have been
frightened by the Republicans with the cry
of Democratic WOLF" in order that they

The official result, it will be seen, differs very
little from the figures obtained by the Demo.
cratic national committee, the New York
Sun, the World and the Herald, and announc-
ed few days after the election. No excuse
can be made for the turmoil and excitement
into which the country was plunged for a
few days by the revolutionary course of Mr..
Blaine and few of his immediate followers,
aided by the New York Tribune and Repub-
lican papers, big and little, which echoed its
utterances. Honest Republicans were will
ing to concede that they were beaten and
wanted to see the country settle down to
business again. Mr.. Blaine and few pestif
erous journals, however, without any reason
able pretext, cried fraud" and persisted in
their rawlings until they made themselves ri
diculous. Sensible Republicans yielded
gracefully, although regretfully, but the jour.
nails referred to will doubtless spend little

Blaine was defeated, and in endeavoring to
show that it was not Democratic victory,

What President Cleveland Will Endeav.
or to DO.

Republican office-holders are very uneasy
lest the new Cleveland broom will sweep
them into private life after the 4th of next
March. Changes in heads of departments
will undoubtedly be made, as soon as the
commissions of the present occupants expire
and we believe President Cleveland will en-
deavor to have the government machinery
run on business basis. If this is done the
services of several thousand useless office
holders will be dispensed with and their sala-
ries will be saved to the country. In fact,
we hope to Sec under President Cleveland's
administration, revision of the tariff and an
equalization of its burdens; the enforcement
of the payment of the $102,000,00O due by
Pacific railroads to the government; a resto-
ration of our commerce and consequent in
crease in our exports; unifca,ion of the
whole country-North, South, East and
West; in fact, a return TO the simple methods
and economical practices that existed before
the war, as the result of the restoration of
Democratic principles in the administration
of the general government
