Mr.. Blaine's Position,

BOSFON, Nov. 4-The Advertiser prints
the following from Augusta, Me-. A distm-
gnished Democrat writes Mr. Blaine with
whom he has been on terms of friendship
many years. complaining of the course of
the Republican committee, and expressing
the hope that Mr. Blaine himself is making
no attempt to influence the count of votes in
New York. Mr.. Blaine replied by asking in
what possible manner he could influence 1t,
and adds: "In the whole controversy / have
had no desire except for fair count and an
honest declaration OF the result | have seen
no other request make by the Republican
national committee nor by any of its mem
bers. They have acted on their judgments
at every step, and need no advice from me.
lido not wish any political supporters of
mine in New York to take the slightest
advantage of mere technical defects in
any returns where he honest intention Of
the voter is expressed l would far rather
lose than gain by the exclusion of returns on
mere technical grounds. The presidency is
not desirable if there be the remotest taint
on the title A promotion of that kind no
more leads TO honor than the possession of
forged paper leads to wealth"

Fixing LIN q Cabinet.

New YORK, Nov. IA Hereld special
from Washington says: Cabinet making Is
now the fashion here 1t is pretty generally
believed that Cleveland will ask either Bay
ard or Senator Lamar to be secretary of
state. Bayard's increasing infrmity, deaf
ness is regarded, even by some of his
friends, as an obstacle to his appoint
mont to the head of the cabinet, and
it is thought for this reason that Bay
ard might then decline the place if it
were offered to him. For the treasury are
mentioned Randall, Morrison and Thurman,
and it seems to be generally conceded among
Democrats that Thurman and Mcdonald will
both have cabinet places, unless Thurman
should prefer foreign mission. But Thur
man, it is suggested, will be urged to take
the interior department on himself because
he had so thoroughly mastered the land
grant and Pacific railway problems. For
the attorney generalship Senator Garland, of
Arkansas, one of the confessedly abest law
yers in the senate, and Mr.. Mcdonald, sof
Indiana, are mentioned, but it is thought
Mcdonald may prefer the postoffice.

New YORK, Nov. 13.-The Blame Or
eans printed in this city have at last cons

its readers the election returns of this
state showing plurality for Gov. Cleve

election
This evening The Commercial Adoertiser
prints the following cheerful editorial. j..
If ii is not vet officially announced, it is
generally granted, that the result of the
last presidential election will be the trans
fer Of the federal power from republican

Mr.. Blaine's personal character. He was
much more assisted by the clergyman
Burchard, who would seem to be fool,

Rebellion cost the republicans more
