Blaine, evidently bis own brother and
his wifes sister. In his answer be gives
the name of no Mipistcr. thus attempt.
ing to prove this most important fact by
members Of the family. and not even
giving the name Of the Clergyman. 10
his answer as to the last ceremony, he say s
the witnesses were John V. Lemoyne

first marrisge, which is the most import.
ant one for him 10 establish beyond a
doubt, depend upon family testimony.
This, however, is not the weakest point
in Mr.. Blaine's defeusc. II he had
married Miss Stauwood 10 1850 secretly
ut Millersburg because he expected TO go
70 PeDnsylvania and be absen, for an in
definite time, as he says, when he re-
turned TO Millersburg why did he live in
the same place with her until 1851 before
acknowledging the marriage? lf there
was reason to keep the marriage secret
while he was necessarily absent, what
was the reason to do so when he returned
to the same village with her. II was not
natural for him 20 have acted thus, end
his plea strikes US as both lame and in.
credible. Mr. Blaine certainly will not
have any sympathy, so far as he is con.
cerned Il was cruel and unmanly in
any newspaper to hnve attacked Mr.
Blaine in a manner to humiliate and
mortify Mrs. Blaine personally. She
will doubtless have unlimited sympathy
and charity extended to her in all the
developments of this celebrated case, but
In any view that msy be taken Of it, Mr.
Blaine can only be censured. His own
version makes his conduct before the
last marriage decidedly crooked and un-
certain.
