BL4INE md THE R4ILRoADs.

During the last night Of the session of
1869 of the house of representatives u bill
was under consideration renewing the land
grant of the Little Rock Railroad company.
Mr.. Julian, then chairman of the committee
on public lands, secured the floor and offered
what is known as the Ell Paso amendment.
1t was certain that the amendment would
pass unless something out Of the usual mode
should be done to prevent its consideration,
and it was equally certain that the senate
was hostile to the Ell PasO amendment, and,
had the bill been returned to that body with
the amendment added, it would have been
promptly laid on the table.
While matters were in this condition Mr..
Root, of Arkansas, went to Blaine, then
speaker of the house, and asked what could
be done to save the bill. Mr.. Blaine, who
was Always ready to assist corporations,
informed him that Mr.. Julians amend
ment was not in order, and all that
was necessary to kill the amendment was to
raise the point, and he (Blaine) would rule
the amendment out Of order As Mr. Root
did not have sufficient confidence in his own
ability to press the matter, Blaine sent a
note to John A. Logan, present candidate for
vice president ON the Republican ticket,
requesting him to raise the point of order.
Mr.. Logan did as requested, and the amend
ment was killed, the bill passed, and the
corporation was enriched by thousands of
acres of valuable land.
Mr.. Blaine, under date of October 4, 1864
wrote to Mr.. Fisher, the great railroad
monopolst, in reference to his action, and
said: cat that time l did not know Mr..
Caldwell, but you can tell him that, without
knowing it, did him q great favor" The
next day Mr.. Blaine again wrote to Fisher
and enclosed a part of the Congressional
RecOrd of April 9, 1859, containing his rul-
ing, saying in his letter that he thought the
point would interest Fisher and Caldwell,
and added; ~ beg you to understand that I
thoroughly appreciate the courtesy
with which you have treated me
in this railroad matter, but your conduct
toward me in business matters has already
been marked by III bounded liberality in past
years. and of course have naturally come
to the conclusion to expect the same of you
nown
In this language he appealed for the re-
enumeration to which he was justly entitled
by serving a corporation. He was so anxious
to assist the railroad that he pointed out to
Gen. Logan the steps to be taken to secure
the defeat of an obnoxious amendment, and
then wrote to the managers of the concern,
pointing out the services which he had rem
dered, and assured them that he expected
them to be as liberal with him as they had
been in the past.

The Anti OnOpolists.
Special Telegram to the Globe.

CHICAGO, Aug. THE. Anti-Monopolists
are to meet August IS and nominate vice
president. When they gave the presidential
nomination to Gen. Butler, they postponed
the naming of 4 running mate until later, in
order too see what was likely to turn up. B.
c. Shively, secretary of the Anti Monopo-
lists returned yesterday from the east, where
he spent a couple of weeks in a
study of the situation. He said that he found
so much cause for encouragement in Buffers
canvass that he Immediately called a meet
ing Of the national committee to make the
vice presidential selection The choice of
the anti-mouopolists will, in Mr. Shiyely's
judgment, fall upon Gen. West, of Mississ-
ippi This gentleman, who was a
brave confederate general, has been
nominated for the vice presidency by
the Greenbackers and in accepting their
choice the Anti-Monopolists act with view
to Greenback co operation. They have pur-
posely selected southern man in order to
capture southern votes. Mr.. Shiyely admits
this and SAYS that it is
a wise thing, the south hav-
ing been thus recognized BY
no other party. Mr.. Shively returns with
positive knowledge that Butler Will run,
otherwise it would not be necessary to call a
meeting Of the convention to make the NOM
'ination for vice president. Reagan, of
Texas. has been named, but West will in all
probability be chosen.

ENG1AND,s EGYPTIAN TROUBLE.


The break up of the Egyptian conference
without reaching any conclusion, save an
agreement to disagree, is liable to have bad
effect on the political situation in England
not to mention what may be the effect in
Egypt AM its influences on the relationsCof
France and England. In truth the conclu-
sion of the conference is unfortunate on
many accounts. The longer the settlement
of the Egyptian question is delayed, the
more complicated it will become, and in
consequence the more difficult its final set
Element. There is as yet no reason given
why there was no conclusion reached, nor is
it indicated what we're the points of differ
ence on whic the conference could not agree.
There is much recrimination on the
English side, and no less probably
on that of the French, as these two were
really the only parties interested in the mat
ter at issue, the other members being only
present to aid them as spectators in settling
their differences. The English newspapers
of Sunday morning were free in charging
the failure on the duplicity of the French
members, who, they asserted, did not wish
to reach any unanimous conclusion, prefer
ring to allow the English government to
attempt a solution in in its own way, where
by the French would be left in a position to
criticise the result if it should fail to be sat
isfactory-
The GLOBE has frequently taken opportu-
nitv to assert that the English government
would finally be forced to adopt protector
ate for Egypt, and recent events seem to
confirm the business of this view. Other
nations prefer TO retain liberty of action
in regard to Egypt and therefore refuse
to enter into any agreement with England as
to joint control They say to England:
',You precipitated the present condition; you
bomb>srded Alexandria; you sent English
forces into the Soudan; you have produced
the present situation; and now you ask Us TO
assist YOU in settling the difficulty. We
prefer to let YOU take care of 4 trouble of
YOUR own making; and if you do not settle
it in a manner that will not interfere with
our interests, we will then let you know
Os course tie break up of the conference
is matter of satisfaction to the Tories. 1t
plunges the Gladstone party into difficulty
of a very serious character The Egyptian
question has been long pending, has been
the cause OF much irritation, and it has been
promised by SIr. Gladstone that it would all
be settled by the conference. The failure TO
redeem this promise leaves the premier in
an embarrassing position. 1t leaves the Egyp-
tain matter with its perplexing features,
where it was-at its worst phase. Weeks
have passed, and in place of this annoying
political issue being out of the way. it has
risen again, aud will not he quieted.
The sentiment of this eouutrywill not sym
pathise much with England. It has believed
all the time that the attack on Egypt WAS
totally unwarrsanted, that it was made in the
interest of sharsSish creditors, aud that the
war in the Soudan vas simply an unproyoked

the following note in reference to the model
Clergyman who has been furnishing low cast Re-
publican newspapers with ISLANDERS about Gov.
Cleveland:
BUFFALO, n. Y, July 27.-Dear Sir: Yours
of the Gath inst received, and we thank you for
your manifested interest in Gov. Cleveand's be-
half. With reference to the reports about Gov.
Cleveland you can say, and you will tell the posi-
tive truth every time You say it, that the story
over s'Rey.r Ball $ signature and the other re-
ports about Cleylpnd's immortality are absolutely
false. The Rev Ball was an ardent supporter
of Cleveland during the gubernatorial campaign,
and was paid for his work. We understand, how
ever, that he was disappointed about some posi-
ton, hence the 'lop'' and dirty work unbecom-
ing any man whether he wears the cloth or not.
"Rev." Balls article has no weight in this place,
where he is, known. The story as published is
false, absolutely So and will be met in due time.
Cleveland will carry Buffalo by 5000 or 5000
majority and New York state by at least 5000,
and in all probability considerable more He is

COL. TIL4S FOR GOVERNoR OF WIS
CONSIN.

CONSIN.
The strong desire expressed by the De-
mocracy of Wisconsin to have Col. Villas
accept the nomination for the governorship
and his partial willingness are in harmony
with the wishes of the Democracy in other
states and in keeping with the belief that the
presentation of strong man would result
in carrying Wisconsin by the Democrats.
Many very enthusiastic Republicans are
expressing the opinion that their party will
carry the state by 10000 votes at the next
election. There is not the slightest lilleli
hood of any such result. Wisconsin is very
closely balanced and is liable to turn either
way from very slight cause. In 1870
Hayes carried the state by only little over
5000 majority, and in 1881 Rusk was elected
by considerably less than half the vote of the
state, receiving 81, 754 out Of III, 656 votes
cast. He was elected by trife over AZ per
cent. of the vote cast
Col Villas would take the field with a pres
tige and a strength never before possessed
by any candidate in that state. There is
very large German element which is dis
affected with Republican rule and Republican
promises, and whose ballot could
be commanded by a Democratic candidate
of acknowledged ability. There is also much
apprehension on the part of the Republicans
rs to the probable course which will be taken
10y the powerful Norwegian element, which
has hitherto been Republican, but which is
now moi at all certain as to its future action.
1t is to be hoped that Col. Villas will consent
to make the run.

Judge James Believes the Democrats

Especial Telegram to the Globe.
CHICAGO, Aug. Judge w. c. James, a
prominent Iowa Democrat, brings encourage
ment to the friends of Cleveland and Hen
bricks with the statement that the Demo-
Gratis will carry five and perhaps six congress
ional districts in the coming election in Iowa.
Judge James also says that the statement
that the Democrats have possible chance of
carrying Iowa is not a boast
as hollow as it seems. Gov.
B. r. Sherman's majority over the Demo,
cratic and Greenback tickets, or over all
two years ago was just 10, COS. The Prohi-
billions will take 10000 votes away from the
Republicans" said Judge James, ''and the
Democrats will have 10000 Germans who
have heretofore voted the Republican ticket.
There is a strong feeling of dissatisfaction
in Iowa among the whisky drinking Repub-
licans on account of the prohibition
tendency in that state, and this will
give US number of Republican
votes. Then we propose to work with the
Greenbackers to offset the Butler sentiment
by giving them one or two electors. l think

we do not carry Iowa we viii come so near

TALKING TO VETS.
A Neat Little Speech by Blaine, of
Maine,

OLD ORCHARD, Me-, Aug. 7.-When Mr..
address the veterans he was greeted with
shouts, cheers and cries of ''Blaine our next
president" He said:
Gentlemen of the grand army of Maine. I
thank You for your kindly and cordial greet
ing. The occasion has been one great pleas
ure to me in renewal of old acuuaintances
and recalling old scenes in civil life that
ante date your splendid deeds of war Nv
mind is carried back to the winter of 1861
to the excitement, the elation, and at the
same time the seriousness and sadness of
that ominous and critical era
l wildly remember every in
cident as we stood ON the eve
of the gigantic struggle. When at last the
the war cloud burst and President Lincoln
issued his proclamation for $4,000 men,
Maine was asked for one regiment. Gov
Washburne summoned an extra session of
the legislature. l had the honor at the time
to be speaker of the house of representatives.
and patriotism was fervid, confidence strong
and we younger members of the legislature
q was but thirty-oue years old myself de-
termined to do something very bold-some-
thing that we ventured TO hope would be
rather appalling to the Confederate govern
ment. Instead Of responding with the one
regiment which the president asked, we au-
thorized the governor to offer ten regiments.
and though entirely unused to
state debt we authorized
the governor to borrow 81 ZOO, 900 for i'm.
mediate use in the state in equipment of
troops. We all felt that we were Dragging
when we used these big figures. We felt
sure our ten regiments would never be.used.
for such a contingent from Maine implied
larger force than Napoleon and Wellington
10th controlled on the field of Waterloo.
General Fleming you. far better than |.
know the sequel. Our ten regiments were
swept into the vortex of war before the ex-
piratiOn of half a year, and we ended by
sending thirty-two regiments of infantry.
two regiments of cavalry and
nine batteries of artillery. This with
the recruits needed 70 keep their
ranks full il the terrible contest absorbed
more than 10000 men of Maine, draft al
most as large in proportion to the arms bear
ing population as Frederick the Great levied
on the provinces of Prussia in the hardest
pressed period of the seven years war. You,
gentlemen, are an hOnored and important
part of the survivors of that great hostage.
| join with you in commemoratiou of the
services Of the non-returning braves, for
that great host who died for their country
and for liberty. No victory in war ever as
sured so much good to mankind; none ever
prevented so much evil But now
the war is over, and our triumph is
celebrated not with the sense Of having
conquered for but with that better sense Of
having reclaimed our kinsmen and brought
them back to their own heritage and to pro-
lection Of their own flag. Beneath that flag
north and south east and west will all find
protection under its sheltering folds, we shall
all dwell together in harmony, for we are
brethren"

plause which lasted ten minutes

Characterization.

Before commencing his speech last night
Monsgnor Capel announced that he had re-
ceived an anonymous attack, and requested
that there should be no repetition of the of
fence as it was not worthy of men, and
should be treated accordingly.
The subject which he chose for his last
nights discourse was TRANSMISSION tiation
He explained that God in his real spiritual
presence is everywhere, but that in the sacra-
ment of the altar, although we can see
naught but bread and wine. We have really
and truly the body Gas it was after the ascen-
sion), and the blood, soul and divinity of
Jesus Christ. He explained that though his
voice is heard by mis- entire audience he
speaks with but one voice
The monsignor stated in a most learned and
logical way how it is that man cannot compr
bend that Christ could give his body and
blood as food to mankind, and still have
risen with that body into heaven, when even
his apostles could not understand it with hu-
man reason, saying that even Peter could
not understand, but knowing Christ TO be
God and truth he placed his entire confidence
in Him, and believed Him. The monsg-
nor quoted the passages of the scripture Fela-
ting to the conservation of bread and wine.
and accepted for moment that Christ used
the terms fguratively and proceeded to
overthrow the same statement by saying,
that whila he was in Palestine where the
language OF the Scripture is known he asked
these people if there existed in their Ian
guage such thing as eating a mans flesh
figuratively. which they denied. He asked
people to ask if $50, 600. coo Christians now
in existence, not counting their predecessors
for sixteen centuries, were so foolish
as to De led astray in their belief
He closed by Explaining to his hearers that
no amount Of human reasoning could bring
one to the belief of the transubstantiation !;
and SAYING that there were hut two WAYS to
adopt: the simplicity and confidence of
Peter in the goodness of God, or to remain
in darkness
