Mr. Blaine's improvement is still progressing. There was no Cabinet meeting to-daj Hit; President having gone to Baltimore. Gen. Sheridan has gouc to the lied Cloud ngency on a tour of personal observation. Mr. Blaine wrote, with his own hand, the following: "Eugene Hale, Cincinnati: I am en tirely convalescent, suffering only from physical weakness. Impress upon my friends the great debt of - gratitude I feel for the unparalleled steadfastness with which they have adhered to me in my hour of trial. ' (Signed) "J. G. Blaine." ..Trie jotars; specials irom uincinnau are very fasornble to Blaine. Its last special says: The Blaine enthusiasm is increasing hourty, and it is now generally conceded .that, if his health continues to improve, hg will be nominated with a whirl ou the sec ond ballat, and possibly ou the first. There is a scene of great excitement at the Blaine headquarters this afternoon. The news of the accession of strength from various State delegations is received, while a large throng, headed by Asa Hutchinson, of the Hutchinson family, are singing Blaine cam paign Bong9, shouting and throwing up hats, amidst the wildest enthusiasm. A big Blaine meeting is to be held to-night. ' " THE NATIONAL CONVENTION. CanvaRKlns the Chances of the DI1 Tereut Candidates for the Nomina tion Blaine Expected to Lead on the First Ballot.

The Kentucky delegation resolved to - r tt t a. T" ? urge J. m. narian. ior permanent sr resi dent, indicating a weakening for Bristow. There i3 but little hope of Blaine recovering Michigan. The vote will be divided be tween Bristow and Hayes, with few scat tering. " Thfiirade between the Hayes men of Ohio and the Vermont delegation is probably based upon the report of Ohio being for Jewell for Vice President, The latest slates of North Carolina gives Blaine 12, Conkling 4, Bristow 2, and Morton 2. shire is claimed solid for Blaine.

Hia friends are coquetting with Hayes for the iiuild place, and pursuing the same tactics with Logan's friends for the second place. The friends of Blaine and Conkling ure working with Pennsylvania for its votes when Hartranft is withdrawn. It is Mated that the Bristow men from Massa chusetts will go solid for Blaine when Bris tow is out of the ring. The Pennsylvania delegation met and resolved to stick to Hartranft If persisted in.Blaine will be de feated. Massachusetts stiU stands 20 for Bristow and 6 far Blaine.

Something of Interest fi r TO 2 HE OLD FOLKS, And to the Boys and Girls. The Boston Journal, in a recent Issue, pays: " Picture to yourself what a magazine for children ought to be hw bright and winning in contents, how pure and stimulating In teaching, how re-, splendent with pictures, and then turn over the pages of St. Nicholas, and you will find your Ideal realized." . The Chicago Inter-Ocean says: St. Nicholas is an institution of which Young and Old America are as proud as England is of Punch. - A house with out St. Nicholas," continues the writer, " does not deserve to own any boys and girls; no dog should wag its little tail while pressing its nose through the area railings; emphatically, we would observe that, should the sun condescend to shine upon that house, hia solar majesty would make a big mistake." The First Volume of St. Nicholas was a surprise even to the public that had heartily welcomed it, number by number. Newspaper critics expressed enthusiastic approval; children and pa rents were alike delighted, and congratulatory let ters from distinguished men. and women poured in upon the publishers and editor. Charles Dudley Warner wrote: "I do not see how it can be made any better, and if children don't like it, it Is time to change ihe kind of children in this country.' Whittier, our great poet, wrote: "It is little to say of this magazine that-it ia the best child's periodical in the world;" and words of hearty com mendation came across the ocean from such earnest workeis and popular favorites of the young as Geo. Macdonald, Christina llossetti, and Canon Kingsley. Beautifully bound, superbly illustrated, and filled with good things from the beet writers (including three long serial Etories), the first -volume of St Nicholas, complete in itself, is a finer Christmas gift for girls and boys to day than any single book iu the market, excepting St. .Nicholas for 1875, Which, with its magnificent pictures, its two com plete serials, and its innumerable shorter etories, sketches, poems, fairy tales, rhymes aud jingles, bits of wisdom, its French, German and Latin stories its fun and its puzzles, Jack-in-the-pulpit, the Letter-box, &c, is even more superbly attrac tive. " St. Nicholas for 1S74 and 1875, 4 Vol nines. For the convenience of libraries, and because many children find the two large volumes for '74 and '75 rather bulky to handle, we have had thees twenty-four numbers bound in Four Elegant Volumes, and inclosed in a neat box under the general title of ST. NICHOLAS LIBRARY. These four volumes are sold for $8, being only two dollars a volume a beautiful and valuable Christmas present for an entire family of young folks. ' The New York Tribune says: " In the avalanche of immoral literature that threatens the children, some strong, vitally wholesome, and really attrac tive magazine is required for them, and St. Nicholas reached a h'gter platform, and commands for this service wider resources in art and letters, than any of its predecessors or contemporaries." The Sunday-School Times says: "A cleaner, purer, more trustworthy periodical for children can not be named. The magazine docs not claim to be religious, but it is on the side of all that is true and good, from beginning to end." The religious press all over the country heartily commends St. Nicholas, and virtually echoes the opinion of the New York Christian Union, that it is " A DELIGHTFUL MAGAZINE FOR ALL CHILDREN BE TWEEN riVE AND EIGHTY-SEVEN." St. Nicholas for 1876 Promises even greater attractions than the previous volumes. A strong feature of the new volume is an American Serial Story, , 'The Boy Emigrants," by Noah Brooks, Giving the adventures of a party of boys on their long journey across the plains, with a vivid por traiture of their Life in California DURING THE DATS OF THE GOLD-EE FER. Mr. Brooks brings to this work, in addition to his well-known literary gifts, a thorough familiarity with the features of that wild country and the peo ple then flocking toward it. What he has to say of them is pervaded with a subtle and intense savor of reality that enables the reader to follow the charac ters in their adventures with a positive sense of companionship. The contagion of the "gold fever;" the great difliculties and perils which be leaguered their journey across the plains and moun tains, and finally the adventurous, half-civilized, and yet, in a certain rude way, poetic life in the mines cf California, are all described with wonder ful truthfulness and skill. Add to this the elevated tone pervading the work, and the irresistible attrac tion which such a narrative possesses for boys, and the value of this stirring, heaithy serial becomes evi dent. There is to be another and shorter serial, begin ning in January and running through three numbers: " Jon of Iceland," B Y BA TA RD TA YL OB. A delightfully vivid story of an Icelandic boy's career, full of incidents, which could happen in no other country, and graphically touching upon the customs, life, and general features of that strange land. The bust general reading for boys and girls Is In sured by a list of present aud promised contributors, among whom are: William Cnlien Bryant, George Macdonald, Chris tina Rossetti, Louisa M. Alcott, J. T. Trowbridge, T. B. Aldrica, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, Abby Mor ton Diaz, Harriet Prescott Spofford, Donald G. Mitchell, H. H., Edmund C. Stedman, Lucy Lar cem, Charles Dudley Warner, Bret Harte, Frank H. Stockton, Elizabeth Akers Allen, T. W. Hig-ineon. Lucreia P. Hale, Prof. R. A. Proctor, Mrs. Oli phant and Rev. Edward Eggleston. Special papers are secursd or promised, viz : As tronomy for Young Polks (Pnof. Proctor); Chapters on Windsor Castle and English History Mrs Oli ahant); Talk With Girls Mrs. A. D. T. Whitney. H. II. , Louisa M. Alcott. Susan Coolidge and Mrs. Dodge); Little Housekeepers' Pages (Marion Har land, author of " Common Sense in the Household").

Among other notable papers we mention the f ol lowing: A Second "Fabmeb's Vacation," by Col. George E. Waring descriptive of a row-boat nde of two hundred and fifty miles, in one of the most fertile -and interesting of the vine-growiiiij valleys of Europe a region never seen by the ordi nary traveler, but full of int crest, in it social and in dustrial aspects.
