BLAINE AT HOME.
Described py une of III, Ee,xhoor.


+. F. Phlsbury, of Maine, a close neigh
Dor of Mr.. Blaine, said at a meeting Of
the Bay State club in Boston the other
night
81 think am pretty we'll acquainted
with the Hon. James G.. Blaine. | have
encountered him on the stump, aud have
fought political battles with him in Maine.
have studied his methods and character,
and think / understand him pretty we'll
am free to accord to Mr.. Blaine that be
has no equal as politician in this country
aud he is prolific in his resources and tao.
and sharpness in politics. But beyond
that have never yet seen Republican
who could say more for Blaine. No Re-
publican could ever give me sound
reason why Blaine should command the
respect of the people of this country.
now ask, what has he done outside of his
acts as a politician to command respect !;
what act OF statesmanship With what
great measure has he been allied ? No
one can tell. What has he done in states.
manship, In business or in religion, if you
please, that entitled him TO this sup
port
"In the matter of Christian religion,
James G. Blaine came to Augusta a
Catholic, and carried his Bible and rosary
to church, but when he went into politics
the Catholic church was not popular enough
and he apostGtized and went into the Con
grcgational church, on the condition that
he should not be called to make prayer in
church. (Cheers.) What is his war re-
cord that it should entitle him To the con-
fidence of the people, although he was
formost in the proceedings that led to the
war ? He was the first to be drafted in his
district. But prior TO that au organization
had been effected in Augusta TO protect
men al ainst the draft, each member pay
ing s25 to the fund to hire substitute If
drafted. Mr. Blaine, out of that fund
hired substitute named Bradford. A
soft place was found for tho man TO re
main at his post 10 Augusta instead of
going TO the front. After q while he was
detected in selling for mouey certain Ger
titicates, and he was kept in Jail until
the close of the war. That constituted
Mr.. Blaine's service in the field. cloud
Laughter.) After the war had closed the
men who had been drawn claimed that
the towns aud cities should pay the ex
penses they had been put to. and Augusta
generously voted to pay these men the
money they had paid for substitutes, and
Mr.. Blaine got his bond for 800. But
this is not the end. Afterwards Iesulu
tion was put before the common council Of
Augusta to pay Mr.. Blaine 5000, the
amount he had paid for a substitute, and
1t was voted and passed, aud he was
paid. That you can rely on as being a
true story.
