At a Democratic meeting held in Eairview,
New Jersey, last week, Mr.. Kobbe was the
principle speaker. He went thoroughly into
an analysis of the Mulligan-Fisher letters.
He has personal acquaintance with Mr..
Fisher and had examined at his house in
Boston, a tull file of the series of letters, in
Guiding the one written by Mr.. Blaine for
Mr. Fisher to sign. Mr.. Fisher said Blaine
wanted that letter, to read before the congress
sional committee, who were To investigate
his conduct in regard to using his position
as Speaker, in order to further his interest in
connection with Little Rock Shares and 9TH
er stocks. Mr.. Fisher said should he have
been called before the committee, and put
under oath, he could not have sustained
the averments in that letter without per-
hiring himself. This attempted subordina-
ton OF perjuring was certainly 4 very innO-
cent and modestaffair! 1t took ''cheek, ''the
the characteristic eudacity Of Mr.. Blaine to
prefer such request. Mr.. Fisher rejected
the proposition with scorn. He did not
even Burn this letter, as requested by Mr.
Blaine. II Mr.. Blaine chose to perjure him
self to get out of a bad scrape, that was bis
own business, he (Fisher) refused to follow
his example. Mr.. Kobbe with great detail
took up the various "Mullgau letters and
described Mr.. Blaiue's repeatedattempts TO
have Mr.. Fisher at any moral cost, swear
him (Blainc) out of his dilemma.
Mr.. Kobbe produced profound sensation
By reading letter which be had received
from Mr.. Fisher, in which he stated that Mr.
M. =
which he (Blaine) now hopes, very sincerely,
no doubt, that every Republican paper will
publish. Mr. Fisher also states in the same
letter that Mr.. Blaine offered TO pay all ex-
peuses II Fisher and Mulligsn would leave
the country until after the election This

J appeared in the GLOBE. but it is here repro
