ALBANY, n. Y, Sept 13.-The list OF prom
inent Republican boilers to the Cleveland
standard continues to increase hourly.
Brigadler General Doubleday, of the United
States Army, was among the visitors to the
Governor to-day. he stated that although
he had always voted the Republican ticket
he could not this year cast his ballot for
James G. Blaine. Instead he would vote for
Grover Cleveland and do what he could to
secure his election.
THE BUFFALO CAMPAIGN.
Mr.. Matthias, editor of the Buffalo Volks
Freund, said that among the thousands of
German voters in Buffalo there were many
hundreds of Independent Republicans who
had openly announced their intention to vote
for Cleveland.
''They are emphatica'ly against Blaine
he said, Notwithstanding the desperate
efforts made by the custom-house and post
Office machine to win them over. The Ger
mans of Buffalo were always for the Gov
ernor, and, if for only local pride, they viii
see that he carries our city by good ma
ioriiy. am sure he will carry the county.
1 am convinced that the Republicans of
this State intend to make Buffalo the
home seat of the battle. They propose
to create the impression that the Governor is
unpopular at home; that be will be defeated
there, and by this means they seek to in
fuence the State. But this plan will net
work, as the Democrats are determined to
show the people of this and other States that
no such facts exist in Buffalo"
ANOTHER REPUBLICAN BoLTER.
Mr.. Henry S. Lamb, formerly Superin-
tendent of Banks of this State and leading
Republican, who resides at Lansingburg, to-
day formally announces his intention to
bolt Blaine and vote for Cleveland This
over the State. Mr.. Lamb is well and favor
ably known. he sends long letter explain
ing his position, which will be published in
the Argus in full on Monday next. Part OF
this letter reads:
WR. BLAINE ARRAIGNED.
Mr.. blaine is the type of a class OF men
who make politics their profitable vocation
in life. In addition to notorious
public testimony of Mr.. Blsine's crooked
self seeking have been taught long since by
some of his Republican associates in Con.
gress that pending corporate and private
measures which antagonize public interests
too frequently found in Mr.. Blaine cham
pion and advocate. For t1enty-three years
he has been q specUlator. He was never the
examiner OF great undertakings and of prac-
teal, useful industries 10 gain commissions.
To reap profits by speculation have been his
practice. know myself that he was engaged
in profitable Ito him speculation in 1881.
While Secretary of State he and his fellow.
promoters doomed 8 speculative enterprise
| which utterly collapsed very soon after Mr..
| Blaine, Tom Ewing, Jr., OF Ohio, and their
associates marketed their shares. A receiver

| cumulative testimony IS 10 Dir. Blaines
character and conduct convInces me that his
| nomination was q grievous mistake and that
! his election would be national misfortune.
| Hence, while am no less Republican than

| Mr.. Blaine as was to his nomination"
MIR. Lamb concludes with strong indOrse-
ment of Governor Cleyelsnd.
| Two ladies from Canada left the Deiavan
! at an early hour this afternoon to call upon
the Governor. Before leaving the hotel
/ they asked the clerk il it were customary
/ for the Governor to receive visitors.
Certainly, madam" was the answer.
Then. suppose, must appear in full
| dress, she said.
He receives everybody. Your travelling
costume will answer just as well, answered
| the clerk.
What you don't have to appear in full
dress when you call upon the Governor
exclaimed the elder lady. "Why in Mon.
treal nobody thinks OF calling upon the Gov
ernor there unless in full dress"
THAT is the difference between the United
/ States and your country" was the quiet but
business like answer of the clerk. 'Full
dress or no full dress nobody has any diff

How delightful are your American Gus

! departed for the carriage that was to convey
