New YORK, July 16.-The Tribune to-

printed last Sunday dispatch from Bar

port of a talk with Blaine about his health
and his present mode of life. 1t came from
Maine journalist who was known to a
member of our staff as man OF fair reputa-
ton, and We had no doubt of its authen-
ITCHY. 1t now appears that we were inl-
posed on and that the dispatch in question
was essentially Justification. 1t is only
just. therefore. to Blaine and to our readers
that we should express our regret that we
were thus deceived by the false appearance
of accuracy and good faith. 1t is great
satisfaction to know, how ever, that Blafne's
progress toward the complete recovery of
his health and vigor was not exaggerated In
that unauthorized account of his condition,
and that his Improvement is rapid and con-
tinuouS. The private dispatch appears to
have been essentially true, but not the inter-
view, as stated. 1t served to put an end to
many false reports.
