THE latest estimate is that Mr.. Blaine's
book has reached a sale Of 100000 copies, and
his profits on it are about S25, 600. Those
who doubt this can be convinced by the state
ment that in Augusta. Me-, alone, 100000
copies have been sold. AS the pOpu-
latiOn of Augusta is $4,000, there is an average
of 225 copies to each inhabitant. Yet the sad
fact remains that not single copy has been
seen IN New York.-LJe.

What the Great Arthur Organ Says.
Nel0 York Herald (Tnd.J.

The Republican delegates at Chicago have
a grave responsibility upon them. The ten
dehcy of the country is undoubtedly toward
a change of parties. There is an impression
that the Republicans have ruled long enough.
We should be satisfied, in common with the
great mass of the voters, to another four
years of the wise, conservative, peaceful,
honest rule of Arthur; but if the Republican
leaders do not want that, the country will
reasonably suspect them of unpatriOtic de-
signs, and it will be difficult for them to dis
sipate that cloud of suspicion. We suspect
that the soldier candidates, one armed or
otherwise, and the many who wanted to carry
the Union or Confederate flag, we forget
which, from Maine to Texas, are both about
