comack Courthouse on Sunday night
on the tug which supplied the place Of
the railroads new steamcr that had
been temporarily laid up for repairs.
When Mr.. Blair took his seat In the
cabin Of the tug--he got aboard at Old
Point--he had nothing to say to
any one, although the cabin was
crowded and the conversation was
general. His ris-d-ris was Colonel
Starke, of Norfolk. The Colonel has
such plain way Of stating his facts
that he Is not . particular fayorite with
Republican orators. Mr.. Blair was as
mum as an oyster during the trip.
When he began his speech on Monday
his position was almost farcical. Sew
eral negro women were among his most
attentive listeners. A pedler, who had
patent medicines and cheap stationery.
proclaimed the virtues Of his wares first
in front Of the Republican speaker, while
q negro bsnjoist on his left sang for
the amusement Of large crowd an in
tolerably long ditty, which told about
the time "When Me and Susan was
Young" Blsir's lot was not happy
one, and he realized its discomforts.
But he stuck out bravely to the end,
although his crowd of seven white men
and hundred negro men and women
dwindled away to almost handful
before his speech was finished.
But Blair made a dozen mis-
representations which could easily
have been corrected had he been en-
gagged in joint debate. In this way he
revenged himself upon the Democrats.
The contrast between the earnest and
substantial men who gathered around
Fitz Lee, TO the number OF nearly
thousand, with Blair's motley handful.
fully justifes the State COMMITTEES in
refusing to give joint debate. p.
