 CINCINNATI, Oct. 2.--Mr. Blaine arose at
 9:30 this morning, but little refreshed. His
 journey for the past two days has been a
 severe strain upon him physically, and he
 rested for 8 long time. After il in his pri-
 vate apartments the candidate received dele
 gations, among them one of Israelities headed
 by S. w. Frost and Abe Mayer, and an Irish
 delegation, headed by Judge Morrison and G.
 E. Gigan, which brought smile to the sober
 visage of the Plumed Knight. The national
 Irish delegation, led by Mir. Tanning of Col
 umbus, Colonel Murphy of Texas and others,
 presented him with lengthy document on
 the tariff, for which Mr. Blaine thanked
 them very kindly. At 12:30 Mir. Blaine wis
 ited the chamber of commerce, and after
 ward the Merchants Exchange, making speeches at both, after which he took drive with General Logan, Judge Foraker and others to the Garden of Eden and Clinton, where they lunched at Judge Foraker's residence.
 The public reception held in the parlors O the Burnet House this afternoon drew great crowd from o'clock until 4:20. There was a constant stream pouring through the hall nto parlor No. 12 and thence out by the Third street entrance. First MT. Blaine re- ceived the visitors and little further on General Logan grasped the hand of each as. they passed. For an hour and twenty min utes this was kept up, when it was found necessary to call halt, as there did not ap- pear to be any end to the procession. MT. Blaine.-and General Logan a few minutes after made their appearance or the portico of the hotel, where a large crowd soon gath cred MT. Blaine said:
 It is impossible for General Logan and myself to shake hands with all our friends. beg you to take the will for the deed
 Mr Blaine was cheered vociferously and when quiet had been restored he introduced General Logan, who spoke q few words in a similar strain. Both gentlemen retired, while the crowd fingered around the hotel. At 5 p. m. General Logan, Mrs. Logan and friends visited the exposition, where they re- mained till p. In. At 8:30 MT Blaine and General Logan went to the reception at the Lincoln club.
 Fully ten thousand men marched in the Blaine procession this evening. The streets along the line of march thronged by crowds,a fully one-fourth of whom were ladies, who were even more en- thusiastic than the men if possible in ap- plauding with voice and huttering handker- chiefs the clubs as they filed by in brilliant torchlight ranks. Blaine, Logan, Cassius M Clay, Alex Sullivan and number of others reviewed the procession from the second story porch of the Burnet House. By the1r side 1 stood brilliant array of ladies and several local politicians The crowd about the l Burnet House packed the streets solidly for | TWO squares and enthusiastically responded | to short patriotic addresses by Blaine, Lo- gan, General E. F. Hayes, Cassius M | Clay, General Smith Of Massachusetts l md Major Butterworth After repeated calls 1 for speech from MT. Blaine he stepped to | he front and after waiting for the restore | ion of some degree of order said:
 And no human voice could reach them be- congratulate the Republicans of Cincinnati upon 1 heir numbers, upon their enthusiasm (cheers) upon

 The speech had scarcely concluded when | he head of the procession appeared in sight | ,n Third streeet. It was then 10 o'clock | md for over two hours the procession filed l past. Gay banners, flashing lights of every 1ariety, splendid uniforms of both infantry 1 md cavalry, martial music of fife and drum 1 md brazen instruments made 9 striking and | m imposing pageant. Transpareneies with witty and patriotic legends enlivened he display and elicited great applause. Per laps the most marked feature of he display was the large number ,f colored clubs participating in it. They ,eceived especially recognition from MT. Blaine and the distinguished coterie about 1t.ar4 vas elicited by large Irish club which ,nded the procession. It was after .2 o'clock when the last torchlight lad filed past. The patient, leg weary peo- ,le who had stood since o'clock were still oth to leave. Alexander Sullivan was called ut and spoke strongly though briefly urging he need of victory in October.
