BLAISE'S FORTITUDE. The Cincinnati Commercial Ga aetle makes his'ory to suit itself. Commenting on Blaine’s letter, it said: “When the election of Cleveland was established there was no sincere Republican in the country who sc cepted tire result with greater fort! tude than Mr. Blaine, Wo say, then, that the party has no further claims that it can decently urge upon him against his private wishes; and since it is his desire to take his place fora time in the ranks as a private member of the great organization be so lately led, lira! desire must be respected.” When the election of Cleveland I was established,Mr. Blaine delivered at Augusta as vindictive, as incendia ry, as undignified a speech a» ever fell from the tips of a defeated caodi date, ft was a surprise alike to friends and to opponents. It revealed t >e man in his true eharaater; it showed him to he the demagogue ant* tricks ter liis enemies had described him. The speech was in word and spirit in direct opposition to the ap¬ peals he had made during the cam paign lor Southern votes. It showed not fortitude, but weakness and wounded vanity and disappointment to a degree that, in one occupying his position, was astonishing. That he was subject to these weaknesses the world had by that time every reason to know,-but it was believed that he had the self control, the sense of fitness, the dignity sufficient to sup press or control them. This speech and the dismissal of the slander suit at Indiapapolis will fur nish a magazine of ammunition for use in the campaign, if in spite ot that letter the Republicans nominate Blaine. It will bo a very cokl day in this country when, ru time of peace, we again f,o into the shinplastcr bnsi nr.[Cincicra’i Ecquirer.
