The Metropolis would not be sur
prised to find Mr.. Blount quite ready
to admit now that he did not mean
exactly what he said upon the occas.
ion Of his withdrawal. He had other
reasons at that time for his action.
The very important reason was given
that he did not feel physically equal to
the task of making a thorough CAM
paign. This of itself was cause suf-
ficient to justly his withdrawal. We
are now left to infer that Mr.. Blount
is stronger anu letter equipped for
the contest than he was formerly, and
The Metropolis rejoices that it is so.
There can be no question that the
Pensacola attorney will command a
strong following. The Metropolis is
inclined to regard him as the most
formidable Of the possibilities. So far
as this journal is informed, he is a
man o unimpeachable character, pro-
ound intellect, studious habits, and

moreover. the presence and the poise
that comport with the position he
seeks.

This last does not offer any good or
adequate reason why a man should be

that we introduce the Honorable Will.
