iy Republican,

The new series of Blaine-F Fisher let
tsrs, which We publish on our first page,
were given to the public recently for the
FIRST time, and are, as the New York
Times aptly puts it, convincing proof that
.Lr. Blaine is not a fit.person to be Pres.
.ident of the United States, if anything
short of horse. stealing can be considered
convincing proof. They show that Mr..
Blaine used his official position as Speak
er of the National House of Representa-
tives corruptly to advance his own per-
sonal interests. It is impossible to con-
ceive that these letters we're written in
the ordinary course of any Legitimate
transaction. They convict Mr.. Blaine
of treacbery to his friends in Maine, and
show that he wanted Fisher to certify a
falsehood to protect him from the charges
pending against him. The whole cores
pondeuce is discreditable to him, and
shows that be was not only casting an
anchor to yindward" in his own be-.
half, bu. that he was using bis official
position to accomplish it. The Republi.
eau party, proper, is not likely to leave
Mr.. Blaine on account of this correspon.
dence. for it likes corrupt leaders; but
there are thousands of men of business
integrity who are Independent enough to
refuse to follow their party far enough to
vote for q man who is notoriously corrupt.
We do not believe that Mr.. Blaine will
ever be President.

Mr.. Blaine's statement of his secret
marriage and subsequent remarriage
is lacking in that convincing logic-con.
fornity TO the natural action Of men
and in the absence of any reason for the
unusual state of facts which he now al.
leges existed, his pathetic tale must Gre
ate surprise, if it does not carry great
doubt to the public mind. He gives no
name of the Minister who performed the
marriage ceremony, nor of any witnesses
to the marriage in this letter; but in his
sworn answer to the questions propound'
ed 10 the libel suit, be says the witnesses

The Blaine managers are genuinely
frightened at their prospects in Novem-
Der, and have prevailed upon their NOM
inee to visit the principal cities Of the
West, taking in New York and other
points enroute. This is expected to re.
vive tho dropping Republican canvass,
but it is certainly very encouraging to
the Democrats to find that the West,
which has heretofore been so solidly Re.
publican that no attention was necessary,
has become 80 doubtful as to require the
personal presence of the nominee for
President. Mr.. Blaine may 60 West,
but the German element will not forget
that he occupies, as near as possible,
10th sides of the prohibition question.
They will not vote the Republican ticket,
and it is probable that the Democrats
will gain the electoral vote of several
States which have heretofore been strong
IL Republican.

OBITUARY..

DIED, August 2G, 1854, at the home of
her husband Mr. ]. Henry Brooks, of Alb
beville, Mrs. Alice F. Brooks, formerly
Miss Alice Jackson, of Anderson.)
Seldom does sadder and more heart.
reDding Providence ever befall any young
couple than this one. which forcibly illus.
trates the fact that "Death is no respecter of
persons 1t comes to the aged and the
young alike, and sewers the dearest and
tenderest ties which bind human hearts
together. The hymeneal altar and the
tomb are brought nigh together. She was
married last November and died in August,
leaving an infant only five days old.
The voyage over the sea of life bid fair to
be all that two fond hearts could desire,
but, alas how soon and suddenly their
hopes were blasted The young husband
sat by her bedside after twilight, fondly
caressing their first-born, when the mother
turned over, conghed once or twice, and
said, II feel very strange" and in less than
five minutes she breathed her last Oh!
how sudden and unexpected! Without
any apprehension whatever Of danger, the
summons came, and took the mother from
the newborn babe, and left loving hus-
band, with many relatives and friends, to
mourn her untimely death.
Dark and mysterious as this Providence
is, there is hope in her death. She confess
ed in early life her Saviour, and became o
member of Varennes Church, where, amid
a concourse OF loving friends, she wa, laid
away to rest until the morning of the first
resurrection. In this sore, sudden and dis
tressing Providence, God calls upon all,
both young and old. "Be we also ready,
for in such an hour as ye think not the
Son of Man cOmeth," A FRIEND.
MATTE LEoNoRA, daughter Of Mr.. and
]. A. Wootten, aged about three years, died
the 3rd day of September, 1884. Being
their youngest child, and to them most
lovely in her ways, her parents dotted fondly
on her, and in their imagination pictured
her to be the joy of their future years; but
He, who knows and does what is best,
claimed and took her for His own lamb,
that she may be forever in the arms Of her
loving Saviour shepherd.
Peace little loving sleeper
Close to thy Saviour's side,
Housed with thy tender Keeper
Safe-for the Lord has died"

A Card of Thanks.

Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Lonwick, re-
turn their heartfelt thanks to the good
people of Anderson, Pickens and Green
vile counties, for their generous contri-
buttons to restore in some degree the al
most total destruction of their little prop
erty, by the burning of their comfortable
home, on tho Dist of March last. This
card is intended to embrace the colored
people as well, who, Of their scanty
means, contributed their mite along with
their white neighbors, to assist a dis
tressed neighbor in the losses of his
household goods. Mrs. Alice Russell,
the owner of the household, unites her
sincere thanks, with those of her tenants,
for the benevolent acts of the charitable
in this hour of need.
