BLAINE'S SUBSTITUTE.

When Blaine was drafted he promptly
furnished substitute-no wa or bullet sin
his'n." Everybody supposed that the
substitute had received his money
for taking 'Majah" Blalne's place
in the army, but it seems that he
was swindled out Of it, and since the
war he has been kept out of his pension
money also by Republican Board of Ex-
aiming Surgeons. He was to have received
5000, but got only $50, and is now living in
Nashville, Tenn. He is an old colored man,
and was wounded during the Rebellion.
"The Buckeye Vidette," OF Ohio, contains a
letter from Nashville, Tenn, which gives us
valuable information concerning Mr..
Blaine's substitute as follows: "By the Dy,
Blaines substitute in the army resides here.
He is poor old negro. He was wounded
in the army, has tried twice to get pension
and has twice been refused by the Republi-
can Board of Examining Surgeons here. He
was to get 5000 as his pay for taking Blaine's
place, but he never got but see. l was his
second lieutenant and l know this state
ment to be true. I read the dispatches from
Maine. There were six substitutes put in
Company c. Fortieth United States Colored
Infantry, for men Ia that State, and Jacob
Poor of my company was mustered in as
James G. Blaines substitute, and was
wounded in the shoulder at or near Leba-
non, Tenn, in July or August, 1854. He
still lives here. but will not support Blaine"

MRS MORRII,I, AGAIN.

hrs. Morrill, reiterates her opinion and
that of her deceased husband regarding the
wicked and corrupt character Of Blaine. She
repeats and reaffirms her scorching letter to
the Ohio Republican donkeys. Mr.. Secre-
tary Kitchener, please instruct your Republi-
can editors to put it in black type. Here
il is:
81 am in mourning for my husband, but, as
much as 1 mourn his death, thank my
Father in Heaven that He called him home
before the party he loved so well and did 50
much for had so disgraced itself as to nom-
mate so wicked and corrupt a man for the
highest Office within the gift OF the Ameri-
can people as know and my husband knew
James G. Blaine to be. If he were alive he
would not support Mr.. Blaine, or any such
man, even at the bidding of his party.

THERE'S an organ of Blaine

Its fall to relate.
For, from Sundsy-school truths

In a way shameful quite.

With pages all blurred

With lines so im.ham,
So perjured, so fly

With personal sludge-
