A SCORCHER!
P0st-MaSter General Dickinson Pours
 IL Into the "Plummed Knlgnt

sPoke here tonight Tn the same place where Mir. Blame some days s'nce yigoriously assaulted him. l After discussing the Michigan cam paign somewhat, Mir. Dickinson. re. ferrlng to national affairs, spoke as follows:
 "Does any one doubt that the real candidate of the republican n party is the man who controls the ma critics in it's conventions, tts party machinery, It's policies, its methods and it's leaders? If this party should be successful in this campaign (which God forbid, Aye, ii We may judge by the signs of these days, he has already forbid 1 den) Harrison would be only the titular president, while, ss has been ] we'll said, tho unspeakable man from Maine would be regent. We have heard of Chaunccy Nj Depew, that he would be secretary of state; a1d We h ave the assurance of tbe per sonal organ of the hundred million aire of California, Leland Stanford l that tire nominal candidate has giv- ell written assurance to the same in effect. It becomes, therefore, as inn ] poftant as Tn 1881, to discuss this real candidate into whose Keeping this gr at government would be committed for four years. in ease of republican success.
 Within a few days you have lad him before you, and because of what he said here in ! wautDn per sohal attack upon me, 1 may be Pardoned for a word on the same sub, eet, am qoito conscious th at have done httle for the welfare O my country, aud nothing which merits distinction and honor at the Lands of mv couatrymeu. 1t |, with tho utmost pride, therefore, i tbat l note any evidence that have meffted I fraction o1 the confidence uf my feIl0W-citlzsns. Il has been said q Catalino's $ scowI of dlsappro- '.aI distinguished a patriot, and that evidence of d Burr's enmity sas sufficient to exonerate one from the suspicion oi treason, and here in thls place vas publicly decora- ted "lth distinction which nj honorable men before ne have coy eted-the pubic and bitter cgiti- eism of the Cataline of American i politics and the Burr ot modern statesmen.
 With some vitupcration he has as. sumed to glve Ee advice, and has recommended to me the study oi ihe history of country; but instead of standing upon the recommends ti"n, he has also assumed to furnish that history for nay perusal. A dis tinguishcl republican statesman, on betng asked in 1881 why he did not cordially support the national reI ubIican ticket, replied that he had three insurmountabio ob ie" tons to aoing so. The first Was Blaine: the second was Blaine; the third was Blaine On any state. ments of facts falilng erotn the lips of this improvision of history and counted to me for instruction 1 have the same three lnsurmounta tie object ions to accepting thom as truthful. And before l finish the subject promise this audience to show that every one of Rlai ne'' statements made here, and appar cntly fortified by hlm by his tory are false n substance, false in gen eral and false Tn de:al.
 Furthermore, shall prove 10 yot not only that they were false, b't on his own record that ho knew

Now say to you there was no such statistics as read to you in existence and that the figures he gave in this city as to the consumption by New Englaud of western products were false and fraudulent. He stated here, as is reported, that these statistics were furnished him by Gov. AIger. don't believe that. because l don't believe Gov. Alger would be guilty of a fraud; and the statistics of consumption by New England and of internal commerce were not in existence in any official form.
 So far as Blane's statements of facts are concerned, here or any where during the campaign, he has been so impeached before I got here that, In so tar as the matter personal ta myself is concerned, 1 might let that pass. 1 have else where rejiled to the slander manu. factured by hlm at Detroit Tn re. gard to Secretary Bayard' $ son and myself. l replied to hlm in the words of Horace Greeley to hls de- famer.

E rIl- liancy. and magnetism have ulh- mato dcstfR tion, He has attack. e1 mal1gned aud slandered the pure public men of hIs owa party, and they, without exception since he came to lis ofainenee and control, have been most it'Ustrlous in the ranks Of hi enemies. 1t thei head stood the great Conkhne, wao went to his honored grave, followed even there by revhings of this man ana his creatures. It k true Of Blanc, aS ofno other man. that while all honast men are not his enemies, aiI diShonored public men have been lis friends.
