formation reaches the enormous figure Of

Mr. BLAINE's long advertised attack

in the campaign of two years ago, and IN
fact the only subject upon which he laid
especial stress rhe result then was q OF
such as to warrant Mr.. Blaine in riding
this hobby in the future. The remain
der of his speech is principally
devoted to TRADE against Mr..
Baysrd's foreign policy. The state
department pursued conciliatory
course in regard to the fishery dispute
with England, and that does not suit Mr. Z.
Blaine at all. The department pursued
q directly contrary policy ia the recent
difference with Mexico. and that doesn't
suit him either Evidently the gentle
man from Maine is hard to satisfy. A
conciliatory and dictatorial course are
equally displeasing to him. 1t is safe to
say that if Mr.. Bafard had exactly rever
sed his policy he would still have failed
to pacify the misanthropic pine tree poll
ticlan. Evidently the president will
never be forgiven for the result of the
election of 1884. In fact, it is moi likely
that there can be an administration that
can satisfy the Maine statesman unless
the initials of its leading spirit are James
