The elections back in Lincoln's time

George williams, OF Indiana, who or.
ganized the IapaueEe Treasury, made
their loans in Europe, and is ia
miliar with almost every thing, told me
Inst night that he had uever seen such n
performance as the business mems parade
for Blainc. 1t Was entirely made in the
rain, formed in the. rain, aud when itgot
to where Mr. Blaine sioNt', the rain was
tremendous. Yet there lie stood hare,
ne;IdeI for nearly three hours, or IRON
near four O'Clock to seven, refusing an
umbrella, and waiting till the last person
had gone by III the dark. Think OF law

$4,000 fees, marching in rain, at near
siSly years q. aye, tis whole length OF

DIFFERENT CLAIMS.
The Tribune claims that there were by
report from the Offices Of each association
5000 persons marching. The San had
them counted When they cane ia the
stand, and makes the number over IL, GEO.
No doubt good many struggled after ret.
ting drenched to the skin. The big col.
lege here, Columbia, sent OF 800 OF its stu
dents, and many Of these students are in
the mining, law and other departments
and are voters. Looking at this perform
allce one idea fell in my mind, and that
was that Blaine, whether he be elected or
not, had realized most Of the pleasures OF
Presidential fame. II he oould hut be de-
tented by very email vote he would ex.
perience very little humiliation and be
spared all the dangers and labors OF the
office. The campaign against him on per-
sonal scores began in New Toals and
Brooklyn, extended To Bos.na, and found
some piokings up about New Haven, and
perhaps Hartford. The most stubborn op.
position was probably in New York city.

Blaine beaten because they coaiaunded
him with the support al the chief com,
mereial enterprises and railroads. 10 beat
Blaine was considered necessary in order
that politics might be let loose on the rail.

Er!.R MOVEMENT AGAINST BLAINE.
The maiustay OF this bear movement
aeainst Blaine has been Cammack, an
operator here, hailing from New Orleans
originally, and Woerishoier, y German
speculator and card-player. These men
are ii, the habit OF putting their money
out in the form of bets, and I suspect a
great deal OF the betting around New York
for Cleveland to have emanatcd from
them,
Woerlshofer, through his fatler-ir.law,
Ottendorter, who publishes the German
newspaper here, has heen banking on a
great German detection in New York
The father was hammerins away with the
newspaper to detach the Germans, and
the son-in-law WIS putting UP. the money
for betting aud was getting ready to knock;
all the securities on the market. Thus
you see in our day how reform, gambling.
newspaper publishing and race prejudices
are linked together and are mutually de-
ceivers. The growing wealth of the coun-
try and its complete sympathy with every
part OF itself through telegraph. wires, &C.,

elections rs noticeable as the argument
