This region is especially adapted to fruit,

grape. The apple crop here has never been
known to fail. The trees are healthy, and the
fruit smooth, plump, juicy and firm. rarely

MIR. BLAINE IN ENGLAND.
The Comments of the British Thunderer
Upon Mr.. Blaine's Nomination.

The Comments of the British Thunderer
Upon Mr. Blaine's Nomination.
London Times June7
This result will be received with general salts
faction. Not only was Mr.. Blaine the most
popular candidate from the outset but he is be-
yond all question the most conspicuous and re-
spected politician in the ranks of the Republi-
can party. His most formidable competitor was
the present President General Arthur. No ex-
ception could, of course, have been taken to
General Arthur's nomination for a second term;
but his claim rested less upon adistnct national
choice than on the accident of his succession to
General Garfield at the untimely death of the
latter
of experience, who has twice before been can
didate for the presidency, and in 1880 was, in
the earlier stages of the contest the most for
midable opponent of General Grant More
than twenty years ago he was Speaker Of tho
State Legislature of Maine, and from 1869 to
1874 he was Speaker Of the House of Repre-
sentatives. In 1875 the Democratic party in
Maine carried the State elections, and Mr.
Blaine accordingly ceased to be member of the
House of Representatives, In 1876, however, he
was appointed senator from Maine, and he re-
NAMED a senator until. in 1881, he re-
signed in order to accept the secretary
ship of state offered to him by President
Garfield. On the death of the latter he Quilted
Office, and he has since been engaged in the COM
position of historical work, the first volume of
which was noticed by us a short time ago. With
out dlSreSpect to the other candidates proposed
at the convention, it may at least be said that
the Republican party has done itself honor by
the nomination of so well-known and so dis
tinguished man as its candidate for the presi-
dency. We cannot of course pretend to fore
cast the result of the formal election, which
will take place in the autumn, between the cho-
sen candidates of the two great parties The
Democratic convention has still to meet to select
it's candidate and to frame its plat
form. 1t has only once of late years
come near securing the presidency,
and, though it now controls the Legislature the
embarrassment under which it labors in respect
of the question of free trade will not tend to i'm
prove its prospects on the present occasion If,
indeed, the Democratic party could make up its
d mind to definite and reasonable policy on this
important subject it would certainly secure a
good deal more sympathy on this side of the
Atlantic than las generally been accorded to it;
but, however this may be, we may be permitted
to congratulate the Republican party on it's
choice of a candidate so eminently fitted as Mr.
Blaine to represent and uphold the dignity of the
United States.

How to Tell Who win Be President.

Talmage's Sermon, June 20
But do not be overborne by the hue and cry of
political canvass The best man that Ged
ever made, nominated on either side for Presi-
dent of the United States, must wade through
obloquy chin deep. The one target for shots
was set up two weeks ago; the other target for
shots will be set up two weeks ahead, and the
one which gets the most holes put through it
will be President Defamation elected
James A. Garfield. Defamation elected
Abraham Lincoln. Defamation, NV old father
told me, elected Andrew Jackson; and this was
the testimony of q man who disliked jackson.
When at Chicago the other candidate for the
presidency is fairly launched upon public atten-
ton, you can easily and positively tell who will
be President of the United States. Take a
scales and put in on one side all the
scurrility about the Republican candidate
and on the other side of the scales
all the scurrility about the other can
ddate, weighing scurrility against scurrility and
having found out which is the heavier you can
know as well in August as in November The
philosophy of it is plain There is in human
nature something which puts it in sympathy
with the traduced. Have nothing to do, PEN
tongue or type with slanderous nalediction of
public men. When you come to weigh tho
moral character of the candidates, remember
you are a Christian patriot and not scavenger

COMMENTS of the English press upon the
Republican nomination for the presidency
continue pretty steadily adverse to Mr.. Blaine.
Patrick Ford support him. This rather dis
gusts the English, and will end by alternating
European opinion, unless Mr. Blaine clearly
disowns such allies.-Smalley's London Cable
Letter.
Oh, lah-de-dah, Mr.. Smalley. 1t would be
dreadful thing if European opinion should
be ''alienated." For one, we should be
pleased to see Americans abandon their
Anglo-olatry and stand for themselves.

Puritans to abridge the pussonal liberty of the

An Intensely Cold Fact.

EvansviIIe Courier lDem.)
We do not see upon what ground es
teemed contemporaries of the Democratic press
of the State so confidently predict "a sweeping
Democratic victory" in Indiana, no matter who is
nominated at indianapolis and Chicago. 1t is
well to enthuse and keep up the spirit of conf
dence, but there is more wisdom in looking at
the figures of former contests. In presidential
years the memorable fact is that the Republicans
have carried the State five times out of six for
their presidential candidate in the last six ma
several times in the off years but always on
light aggregate vote An examination of the
election returns of the past twelve State cleo
tons will show that in every instance where the
Democrats have elected their State ticket in off
years it has been upon total vote less than that
thrown in the presidential election Immediately

lican candidates. The carrying of these
Southern States would be worth much to the
party and the country; worth an effort the
greatest the committee can possibly put forth
We hope to see such campaign made in
those States as is made in the doubtful North
ern States. Why should not the South be
free territory for political debate between the
partiesg There could be nothing better for the
South itself than a breakup of its solidity
in the interests of political freedom.

REV DIR. TALMAGE, in his sermon on Sun
day, said:
'"The majestic army of Republican indie
pendents are mad because they cannot get
any more out of the Republican crib, and
they are hoping that the Democracy may have
so full bowl that some of it may slop over
into their cup. But lest these independent
Republicans should be disappointed, | will
tell them that they will never get so much as
a spoonful of pap from the Democratic bowl,
for that party, after twenty-four years of pri-
walton, will keep all they will get"
Talmage is very free lance, and now and
then like that of Ithuriel, its point is touched
with the red-eyed truth.
