NEW YORK, April 10.-Within two
or three days word has come from va
rious parts of the South of movement
among Southern Democrats to aid in
securing Blaine delegates from that sec
tion to the National Convention. -Four
ears ago Blaine had 14O delegates from
the Southern States, in spite of the Off
cial patronage opposed to him. A
prominent Southern politician now
here to-day explained the situation as
follows
"The Southern Democrats have lost
all hope of electing Democratic Presi-
dent this Fall. Six months ago the
outlook was roseate; to-day it is gloomy,
hence we are interested in who is to be
the Republican nominee. Our people
have friendly feeling for Blaine, for
several reasons, first of which is his
great His impulses are
good and would warm him toward the
South. We have seen him fly in the
face OF his party in Congress to prevent
them from burdening us with odious
laws, even while he was waving the en-
sanguined shirt for political effect.
Then, our young people liked his policy
in reference to the Central American
republics. | would not be surprised if
Blaine has as many Southern delegates
as Arthur"

neeting of the bar of the Dist rict OF
Delaware Oh January 10Th, in relation
to the death of Judge Bradford, and
spoke at some length of his personal re-
ations with the deceased from boy.
hood.
He moved that az a tribute to his
memory, and in appreciation to his
superior qualities as a Judge, a minute
be made OF the proc edings, and the
resolutions be entered upon the records
Of the Court. The motion was seconded
by Judge Cummins of the Municipal
Court, who said that he fully endorsed
all that had been said by the members
of the bar in relation to the deceased
Judge.
Judge Wales said
sit is proper that this court, In which
Judge Bradford tor SO many years dis
charged his judicial duties should place
on its records some evidence of the es-
teen In which he was held both az q
man and as judge. The brief but elo-

more than justice TO hisadmirable quail
ties. His character required to be well
known to be appreciated. He never
cultivated the art of popularity either
in public or private, and only those
who were intimately acquainted with
him, or nearly 80, could understand the
simplicity, the directness and the uni
form honesty of the man. He was the
most transparent character ! ever knew.
He was a conscientious, cautious, just
and impartial judge-a sincere and con-
stant friend. 1t is n,t necessary that
should now say more, In this room on
very recent occasion, AT a numerously
attended meeting of the bar, his public
career and personal qualities received
their just share of praise. concur in
all that has been said by the district at
torney, and in compliance with his mo-
tion, direct that the proceedings and
resolutions therein mentioned be en-
tered upon the r. cords OF this court. AS
further mark Of respect to the memory
of Judge Bradford, it is ordered that
this court be now adjourned"
The crier then adjourned the court
until 10 o'clock today.

Poison

In the blood will nearly always show
itself in the spring, If it does not come
in the shape of blotches, prmples, erup-
tions, etc, it causes dull and heavy
feeling, indisposition to exerton, loss
OF appetite, and a general letting down
of the system. Nature at this juncture
requires some assistance to help throw
off this poison and clean up the organ
ism for the trying summer weather.
For this there is nothing better than
