Star 1 111 11JL lllLl UbUi By WILIilAM H. BERNARD. WILMINGTON!?. C. Thursdat . EvENrwe, Oct. .9, 1984. EVENING EDITION. ANOTHER CHAPTER IN THE BLAINE HISTORY. Trying to write up Blaine's wicked course and to help expose his innum erable rascalities are becoming a little bit monotonous. We have for some months tried to have our readers in formed of his vile political life but it is hard work to keep up with: the ex posures. In all the world the equal of Blaine cannot be found in vicious ways and short turns and deliberate prevarications. It does look 'as if he will not tell the truth even when it- would be helpful to himself. The sinuous ways of rascality are so fami liar to him that he does not know the straight way when he sees it. j "There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof is death." . f v Blaine's way will dump him at last into that slough of ignominy and ob loquy where no hand of political re surrection will ever reach him.r. The latest of his villainies' ftr o be found in Ward Beecher'd letter con- cernmp; jas. r. Joy, ot JJetroit, and what he said of Blaine. MK Beecher, of date of Oct. 6, 1884, has addressed a letter to Gen. R. A. Alger, Re- a publican candidate for GovernjOj of I Michigan. He was f orced - to write 1 this defence because of a report that I ! was in circulation without "his knowledge or privity." It seems tht at a dining on the 29 th of Sep tember, 1877, Mr. Joy indulged jafav seu in some very iree xaiK. . Here is his statement according ; to Mr. Beecher, who was present: '' ' ' " I "When a difficulty occurred in regard to certain lands in the Southwest in which 1 was interested, a committee was about cf bs appointed by Congress to examine the. matter, Blame being Speaker of the House Tnrougn a mend I asked Mr. Blaine to have one sound lawyer appointed on that committee, I did not care of which nartv J I simply .wanted a sound lawver. Inkdavi or two Mr. Blaine sent me word through a . . if. ti-.- . - ... - -.1 friend that he had. certain .depseciated bnds, and that f I would enable1 htm' to place them at par 'I could have my commit tee as 1 wanted it.' I cannot foreet with what cutting scorn Mr. Joy leaned back in his chair and said : 'That is the man Blaine is,' and he added, 'I refused the offer, and as me courts soon settled tne matter no - committee was appointed. Joy afterwards? became; iBfeine's fugleman and actually nominated him in 1880, in the Chicago Conven , tion. Joy has a denial of i the story.' xiere 11 is: . v j I London, Sept. 20, 1884. R: A.

Now Mr. Beecher M not the onlv witness, xn nis letter he says there were "several gentlemen who. were present" when Joy unbosomed him self. He says further that there are . oiner witnesses, not a few" who have heard "the same substantial . statements;' . ThU fello j Joy i op posea Elaine most bitterly in 1876, i "WUVl . - ' . - ' .

He sent word to Mr , Blaine asking him to put upon the committee one lawyer or nign repuiauuu. Mr. Blaine did not then promise that he would do so, it is said, but on the following rlav nn nt hia intimate friends came to Mr. Joy and told him that if he would buy fmm Mr TtiainA' 25.000 in bonds of the T.ittlH. Rrak and Port Smith ' --- nnr Mr RlAinn wnnld make un the commit- I SiZriTft 5S .: clmed to buv the bonds. He believed that his case was a good one." iNo one need to be surprised at this revelation of official turpitude. Af ter seeing his course against the Cath olics; after seeing his disgraceful conduct in bringing out the most scandalous charges against his com- petitor, Mr. uieveiana; aner uib ui graceful conduct in Maine be fore he entered the National halls of legislation ; after his speculations in: Spencer rifles and other frauds upon the Government in the midst of the great war; after his disgusting and disgraceful conduct while Speak er as is revealed, in the Mulligan let ters, when he bartered his office for pelf ; after his bribery in the Kemble ca8ewhen he blackmailed him for $2,500 after bargaining v to do his work for $5,000; after his lying as to the Hocking Valley mines ana tne way the miners have been treated; after his very bad conduct in bis early life in Kentucky; after all this and more, the public may not leel anv i astonishment at the shameful story of Joy about Blaine, nor, hesi tate a second to believe it. This is the infamous fellow who is hippodromlng in the West as the choice of the' Republican party for the Presidency amin of no moral character whatever; a dishonest knave who is incapable of telling the truth. Mr. Beecher knows the man ftn4 thus paints his portrait in living colprs: Yet I cannot allow myself to be misled. by ' sympathy with his undoubted kind- heartedness, courage and audacity. "Unsound in statesmanlike judgment, unscrupulous in political methods, dim- eyed fa perceiving the distinction between truth antruntruta, absorbingly ambitions. but shortsighted as to the methods of rati fying his ambition, but, with a genial so cial dispsjfition - and a Brilliant rhetorical capacity, f Mr. Blaine makes an alluring candidate,- but would make a dangerous rresidentr Mr. Beecher is not without con- firmation. Other witnesses will speak. Already one. has spoken, and it is known, as a Detroit, Michigan, dis patch to the New York Herald says, that Joy l "unquestionably made" a similar statement as that reported bv Befcher, uto several intimate friends and at various times.11 'I'he following from an editorial in thef New York Times is conclusive: "The same dispatch (to the Herald) at tribbtes to ex Mayor William G. Thomp sonl of "Detroit, who is now opposrnr Mr. Biaine, u Hiowmg remarKsmaae to ex- i Henktor Kaldwin . alan of Tietrnlt. and I quoted fa the Free Press ot Sept. 26: 'You I kjcp the particulars of - James .

It has been especially efficacious in Chronic Intermittent Fever, numerous, cans ot ,;,? character, which had obstinately withstood th vmal remedies, having been restored to perfect hulih in a brief space of time by a sojourn at tile Spring " Db. John W. Williamson, Jackson, Tenn. Extracts from Communication on the Therapeutic Action of the Buffalo Lithia Water in the " Virginia Medical Monthly" for February, 1877. "Their great value In Malarial Diseam and Sequela has been most abundantly and satisfac torily tested; and I have no question that it would have been a valuable auxiliary In the treatment of the epidemic of Yellow Fever which so terribly afflicted the Mississippi Valley during the past summer. I prescribed it myself, and it gave prompt relief in a case of Su)pressidn of I'm,, , i YeUow Fever, and decidedly mitigated other dis tressing and dangerous symptoms. The patient re covered, but how far the water may have contri buted to that result (having prescribed it in hut . a single case) I, of course, cannot undertake to say. There is no doubt, however, alut the fad that its administration was attended by the most l ,, ti dal results." Springs now opens for guests.
