Senator George H. Pendleton thinks tho
canvass is progressing well for the Democrats.
As to the chances of his party in Ohio he said:
1--WE will do our utmost We have good
chance. Our party in Ohio is growing, and
conditions favor us this year. We will do all
that men can do-We'n try. believe we will
succeed, but we will not boast, now that we
are about to put on our harness, IS he that
taketh it off. +"
James G. Blaine knows that James Mulligan
| is an honest man. He knows thai James Null
ligan was an unwilling witness He thinks he
has sufficiently blackened his character for his
own purposes, and fearing that further attacks
may force MIR. Mulligan to tell the whole
damning array of facts against him, has or.
dered his newspaper organs to aim no further
thrusts at him. There is the secret in thu
matter.
The meanness of the New York Tribune as
campaign organ has very few parallels. It at.
tempts to bolster it's false assertion that Gov.

Blaine Justly Blamed.

There is little doubt but that Blaine connived
at, if he did not direct the attack on Clevelands
character, as the Dial was informed two weeks
before the Blaine scandal was published that
the democrats had warned him if he did not
call off the dogs he had better send Mrs. Blaine
to Europe and prepare to defend his own char
acter. If this is true it served Blaine as he de-
served and the Dial has no pity for him. Rather
it has contempt for a man, who, knowing that
such scandal had long existed secretly
against his family, exposed them wantonly to
its publicity, simply to advance, as he thought,
his political ends. But it is national dis
grace and outrage upon Mrs: Blaine and upon
womanhood. If true Mrs. Blaine was the vic
tim. Yet she must suffer the social curse,
while the political retributon is all the Offend

Blaine is accused of doing and then dishonoY

George W. Julian of Indiana, who knows
Blaine thoroughly, says: 81 do not lose sight
of Mr.. Blaine's magnetism, which is often
dwelt upon by his friends. admit that he is
magnetic. There must be some explanation of
his hold upon his party, and in the absence of
other assignable reasons I accept this. He
draws people to him surprisingly, including
honest men and rogues, saints and sinners,
native and adopted citizens. But the govern
ment of the United States is not carried on by
magnetism. The fathers of the Republic never
dreamed of an idea so perfectly original and
refreshing. What the country needs in Presi-
dent is craftsmanship. solid sense and an honest
purpose. I admit, too, that he is brilliant
man; but brilliancy is no more needed in the
conduct of public affairs than magnetism. II
might render Mr.. Blaine very picturesque and
spectacular, as we have seen him through the
dissolving views of his career in the State De-
partment, but the American people are not in
love with such pageantries. They would much
prefer an honest man without brillancy to
brilliant man without honesty. Kindred OBJ
servations apply to the efforts of Mr.. Blaine'e
friends to have him pose before the country az
"Plumed Knight" This may tickle the i'm.
agination Of certain classes, but the days OF
knight errantry are ended, and neither the
knight nor his plume is needed in the sober
and unsentimental work Of American politics.

The manner of this odd old mans fish

Chatting about his curious mode of
making living the old man said: 81 have
frequently taken 1000 leeches from
single stream. If they once get filed with
blood they drop off dead, and thus many
die after getting a square meal from the
legs of the cattle which roam through the
bitches. Leeches may with care be kept
indefinitely. There is a fair sale for
them in Philadelphia, but the demand
has dwindled very much of late
years. French and Swedish leeches
are now very generally used,
because they can be preserved
so much easier. Years ago many men
and boys were engaged in leech-ishing in
this neighborhood. l am all that is left,
and only 1 because am too old for any

have destroyed the industry, you see,"
concluded the fisherman, with twinkle
in his eye, as he went on his way up the
ditch, and the reporter pOndered, as he
walked back toward the city, if this would
not be another chance for protec ton to
American labor. The old man had proba-
bly, one vote at least.

MEN IGNORANT OF FIRE.
A South Sea Island Where Cooking is
Unknown.

A South Sea Island Where Cooking is
Unknown.
do not know Of any but a single record,
says the American Naturalist, where
natives Of a newly discovered country did
not know the use Of fire; that one case
was on Island Fanua Loa, or Bodwitch's
Island, discovered on January %, 1871, by
the u. 5. S. Peacock, commanded by Capt.
W. II. Hudson, of the United States South
Sea Surveying and Exploring Expedition.
Capt. Hudson relates: 'sThe natives
were at first very shy Of the boats; but
the Hawaiians who were in them soon
induced them to approach, and to enter
into trade, and finally enticed them along
side the ships. On coming near they
began a song or chat, holding up their
paddles and mats, and shouting 'kafilou
tamatau.' They resembled the natives of
Oatafu, or Duke of YOrk's Island, wore
the same kind of mats, eye-shades and
ornaments, and some were tatOOed in the
same manner. Some, however, were
tatoOed in a different style, being Orna-
mented with a variety of arrows on the
forehead and cheeks. They were all fine
ly formed and manly in appearance, with
pleasing cOuntenances that expressed
good nature.
4uc1 hEIC eager GlAOAA5lA III NletNACS anu
soon disposed of all they had to exchange;
a few presents were made them, but all
the inducements failed to entice them on
board. They appeared cheerful, laughing
heartily at anything that struck them as
ridiculous.
9'The population of the island is esti-
mated to be about six hunrded souls,
most of whom dwell in the town.
"There were no signs of places IOr cook
ing, nor any appearance of fire, and it is
believed that all their provisions are eaten
raw. What strengthened this opinion
was the alarm the natives felt when they
saw the sparks emanating from the flint
and steel, and the emission of smoke from
the mouths Of those who were smoking
cigars"
The writer of this article was on board
the Peacock, and can vouch for the verify
of Capt. Hudson's account of our inter-
views with the natives, and also that they
eat their entire food without cooking, but
also had the greatest dread of fire in any
form. We saw no traces OF charcoal or
ashes in their village or town, and we
fully understood them as to their food and
how it was taken. 1t consisted entirely
of cocoanuts and pandanus fruits; fish,
echini, and other products of the sea. The
few sea birds mostly seen there were not
regarded as food, and even if they were,
could not have been sesily obtained or
relied on for supplies, the population being
large in proportion to the islands size,
