The Gamblers Convinced.

We suppose our readers are waiting
impatirntlv to learn who is to he the
next president, and in order to par
italy relieve their minds we hasten to
inform them that the New York gam
blers are betting heavy on the election
of Blaine. This is not proof positive
that he will Ice elected. but Our readers
can have the "straw" for what it is
worth. 1t i generally thought that
the gamblers have means of making
calculations not voughsafcd to- theo-
logical professors and divines, though
lust what those means are we cannot
state. Perhaps one reason why they
are willing to stake their pile on Blaine
is the fact If it is Il fact) whispered
inside the ring that Boss Kelly of New
York has contracted to deliver 25,OOO
votes to the republican ticket. What
the consideration promised is not
stated, hut they evidently think these
votes will turn the pivotal state for
Blame and Logan. However this may
be it is evident that this presidential
campaigu is to be the most bitter and
indicative as well rs the most corrupt
campaign in the history of the re-
public
