Eastern Press Comments Blaine,s
Speech.
New YORK, August 26th-The TriJune'S
editorial says Blaine's worst enemies do
not pretend that Blaine's comments of our
foreign affairs are unworthy of the nation
III any respect, and unfair to the Admins
tration, which he criticiseS with damnifed
reserve of language. 1t would be exceed
ingly easy for him to kindle the passions
of Maine audience by speaking in terms
of just severity regarding the Canadian
treatment, and the betrayal of American
interests by the British Administration at
Washington but Blaine prefers to deal
with the question as q statesman and his
torian. Blaine's diguifed reserve does not
deprive his cepsure of severity, when he
contrasts the course of the Administration
toward Great Britain, with its conduct to-
ward a powerleSs neighboring republic
On that branch OF the subject it would not
have been difficult for him to show how a
powerful ring Of land spectators, repre-
sented by influential persons in New York
and at Washington, has been plotting to in
volve the two countries in war, in order to

have been difficult to show the relation of
parties to this scheme with the Admins
trttion in Washington, and with the con-
tolling men of the Mexican border Sta.es.
The Sea editorial says: There is no
doubt about it. Republican criticism upon
Blaine's speech, even as it trickles through
Mugwump spigots, is decidedly favorable.

the Secretary, that at one time there was
a little confusion in the statement of the
facts, growing out of a misunderstanding
concerning the date of certain alleged facts,
but since the department has been in pos
session of the papers there has been no
variation in the confidence first maintained
by the department of the business its de-
mand.'
