! New York, Nov. 7, 1:45 e. M.—
| Owing to the diversified opinion as
to the correctness anil manner in
which the returns from this Stale
have been received and tabulated
by tho Associated Press, it lias in
vited a committee from both the
Democratic, Republican, National
-ji y and State committees and the
loi ioua newspapers of the city to visit its
office this evening and examine its
returna us received direct from the
lor *the j
various districts throughout the
country an administration of law, j State, and also its mode of tabula-
order, economy and iel
The Republicans die
seeing they were defeated, attempt
ed the game of IHK; but it will not
win. They can not :ig:.!n del.and
mu. . 1 ting them to assis' in rctabuiating
hard, and,; them. The Tribune still clnims
that Blaine lias carried the State.
Printing House Square, in front of
its olfiee, is packed with people.
Returns received by the Associa-
of that state, but tbc vote will be
declared, certified and sent forward.
The democratic house ol represen
tatives let none other than the true
votes he counted. To Mr. Blaine |
it is just aB well that these facts he
told now. No fraudulent commis
sion will put James G. Blaine in
the white house or keep Grover
Cleveland out of it. Let him who
attempts it be killed. Tho. legal
consequence of killing him will be
taken care of afterwards.
CLEVELAND TALKS.
Govenor Cleveland said:
"I believe I have been elected
president, and nothing but the
grossest fraud can keep me out of
it, and that we will not permit.”
General Carr, secretary of Btate,
who lives in Troy, was seen at ins
house this evening. He said:
“There is no chauco of stealing
this state, not as long as I have
charge of affairs. I don’t propose
that anybody shall steal the at ate.
If Mr. Cleveland has a plurality,
large or small, he will get i„. The
same is true of either of the other
candidates. I don’t proposo to
play any electoral commission
game. No matter whether it is
friend or foe witii me, he has to
have his justice.”
A Speeeh by lllnine.
Augusta, Me., Nov. (i.—Blaine
received a large mimbor of callers
to day, state officers, personal
friends and neighbors. They all
congratulated him on his strung
and healthy appearance, after the
fatigue ol his recent prolonged
tour in the west. Mr. Blaine show
ed no excitement or anxiety about
the election returns. Indeed lie
was far cooler than bis friends,
who filled his library and drawing
room. He read the numerous tel
egrams lie received, to the compa
ny. After explaining the meaning
and bearing of tbeir contents, in
answer to someone who congratu
lated him upon his self-possession,
lie said he saw no reason why he
should not be self-possessed; that
he had treated tho republican nom
ination as an honorable trust con
fided to liim without solicitation,
and had, therefore, spared no time
and no effort to secure success.
He had full confidence that he iiad
been fairly elected, and trusted
that every effort Would now be
mado to vindicate the saeredness
of the ballot.
“To quote my own saying on an
important occasion,” added Mr.
Blaine, “any party in the United
States ean bear to bo defeated, but
no party will bear to be de
frauded.”
M r. Blaine freely expressed the
judgment that a majority of the
votes of New York had been cast
for the republican electoral ticket,
lie thought tile returns and a com
parison witii tho former votes
clearly established this conclusion.

The doctor is not a musician
himself, but lie has quite a musical
family, and he is disposed to hu*

with the tine Mason & Hamlin

it, brought it home, and wo gave it
a regular warming up last night.
It is a beauty, and as to the capac
