A VIOLENT SPEECH AGAINST THE SOLID SOUTH. The Defeated Candidate Boasts to His Fellow Republicans of How Near He Was to Victory?He Ignores the Millions of Northern Democrats, and Invokes the Wrath of the North Against the South ? The Black Boomerang is more than ho can Stand. [From the News and Courior.] ArorsTA, Maine, November 18.?A largo number of personal and political friends of Blaine serenaded hiin this evening as an expression of personal good will and admiration of his conduct of the national campaign. They marched through the streets under the marshalship o( Col. Frank Nye. When they readied Blaine's house their compliments and friendly regards were expressed in a speech hy Herbert M. Heath, of the Kennebec bar. Blaine responded as follows, his speech being continually interrupted by applause : Friends and neighbor, the national cumcsi is over, aim oy mo narrowest ol margins wo havo lost. I thank you for your call, which, if not one of joyous congratulations, is one I am sure of confidonco and of sanguine hope for the future. I thank you for the public opportunity you give nie to express my sense of obligation not only to you but to all the Republicans of Maine. They responded to my nomination with genuine enthusiasm, ratified it with n superb vote. I count it as one of the honors and gratifications of my public career that the party in Maine after struggling hard for the last six years, and twice within that period losing the State, ha3 come back in this campaign to an oldfashioned 25,(XX) plurality. No other expression of popular confidence and esteem could ^equftl that of the people among whom I have lived for thirty yours, and to whom I am attached by ul 1 the ties that ennoble human nature and give joy and dignity to life. After Maine, indeed along with Maine, 1113- first thought is always of Pennsylvania. How can I fittingly express my thanks for that unparalleled majority of more than 80,(XX) votes, an endorsement which has deeply touched my heart and : which has, if possible, increased 1113- affection for that grand old commonwealth, an affection which 1 inherited from mv ancestry and which I shall transmit to my children. Hut I do not limit my thanks to the State of my residence and the State of my birth. I owe much to tho true and tea loin friends in Now England who worked so nobly for the Republican party and to the eminent scholars nnd livines \rho, stepping aside from their ordinary Avocations, made my cause their cause, and to loyalty, to principle \dded the special compliment of standing as my personal representatives in the national struggle. Hut the achievincnts for tho Republican cause in the East are even surpassed 1 by the splendid victories in tho West. In that magnificent cordon of States ' that stretches from tho foot-hills of the I Alleghanies to the golden gate of the l'a- j sific, beginning with Ohio and ending; with California, the Republican banner was borne so lofty that but a single State tailed to join in the wide acclaim of triumph. Nor should I do justice to my own lecungs n I tailed to thank the Republicans of the Empire State, who encountered so many discouragement* nu<l obstacles, who fought foes from within and foes from without, and who waged so Ktrong a battle that tlio change of one vote in every 2,(XX.) would have given us victory m the nation. Indeed a ohnnge of a little more than 5,OOo votes would have transferred New York, Indiana, New .Jersey and Connecticut to the liepublican staudard and would have made the North as solid as the South. My thanks would still be incomplete if 1 should fail to recognize with special gratitude that great body of workingmen, both native, and foreign born, who gave me their earnest support, breaking from old personal ami party ties and finding in the principles which i represented in the canvass, the safe-guard and protection of their own fireside interest. The result of the election, my friends, will ho regarded in the future, I think, as extraordinary. The Northern States, leaving out the cities of New York and Brooklyn from the count, sustained tfifr Republican cause by a majority of more than 4<)0,000. Almost half a million indeed of the popular vote of the cities of New York and Brooklyn threw their great strength nnd intlucnce with the solid South fciid were the decisive olemcnt which gave toth.it section the control of the National government. Speaking now, not ut all as a defeated candidate, but as a loyal and devoted^ American, 1 think the transfer of th$ political power of the government to the South is a great national misfortune. It is a misfortune because it introduces an clement which cannot insure harmony and prosperity to the people, because it introduces into the Republic the rule of the minority. The lirst instinct of an American is equality?equality of right, equality of privilege, equality of political power, that equality which says to every citizen : "Your vote is just as good, juRt as potential as the voto of any other citizen." That cannot be said'to-day in the United States. The cou|fcb of affairs in the South has crushed out the political power of more than a million of American citizens and has transferred it by violence to others. Forty-two Presidential electors arc assigned to the South on account of the colored population. That population with more than 1,100,000, legal votes have been unable to chosc a single elector. Even in those States where thej' have a majority of more thmi 100,000, they are deprived of free suffrage and their rights as citizens are scornfully trodden under foot. The eleven States that comprised the Rebel Confedcracj* had by the census of 1880 seven and a half million white population and 5,300,000 colored population. The colored population almost to a man desire to support the Republican party, but by a system of cruel intimidation, and by violence and murder, whenever violence and murder are thought neces mry, uiey are aosoiuteiy deprived ol all political power. If the outrage stopped there it would be bail enough, but it does not stop there, for not only is the negro population disfraneiserl, but the power which rightfully and constitutionally belongs to them is transferred to the white population, enabling the white population of the South to ex- j ert an electoral influence far beyond that exerted by the same number of white people in the North. To illustrate just how it works to the destruction of all fnir elections, let me present to you five States in the late Confederacy and five loyal States of the North, possessing for each section the same number of electoral votes. In the South the States of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and South Car olinn have in tlio aggregate forty-eight electoral votes. They hnvc just 2,800,(XX) white people and over ;1,000,<XX) colored people. In the North the States of Wisconsin, Minnesota^ Iowa, Kansas and Calfornia have likewise an aggregate of forty-eight electoral votes, and these have a white population of 5.(500,(XX), or just double the five Southern States which I have named. These Northern States have practically 110 colored population. Jt is, therefore, evident that the white nirn in those Southern States, 1>3' usurping and absorbing the rights of the colored men, are exertingjust double the political power of the white men in the Northern States. I submi% my friends, that such a. condition of affairs is extraordinary, unjust and derogatory to the manhood of the North. Even those who are vindictively opposed to negro suffrage will not deny that if Presidential electors are as signed to the South by reason of the negro population, that population ought to l>e permitted freo suffrage in an election. To deny that clear proposition is to affirm that the Southern white man in the Gulf States is entitled to double the political power of the Northern white man in the Lake States. It is to affirm thit the Confederate soldier is to wield twice the influence in the natiou that the Union Soldier can, and that perpetual and constantly increasing superiority shall be conceded to the Southern white man iu the Government of the Union. If that be quietly conceded in this gonera uuii 11 win nanien niu cuniom until the hadg# of inferiority will nttach to the Northern white man as odiously as ever Norman noble stamped it upon tho Saxon churl. This subject is of deep interest to tho laboring men of the North. With the Southern Democracy triumphant in their States and in tho nation, the negroes will be compelled to work for just such wages as the whites may decree, wages which will amount, as did the supplies of the slaves, to a bare subsistence, equal in cash, perhaps, to 35 cents per day, if averaged over tho entire South. Tho white laborer in the North will soon feel the destructive effect of this upon his own wages. The Republicans have clearly* seen from the earliest days of reconstruction that wages in tho South must be raised tothejuat recompense of the laborer, or wages in the North be ruinously lowered, and the party has steadily worked for the former result. A reverse influ encc will bi: now set in motion, and that condition of affairs produccil which years ago Mr. Lincoln warned the free laboring men of the North, will prove hostile to their independence and will inevitably lead to ? ruinous reduction of wages. A niero difference in the color of the skin will not suffice for maintaining an entire l-difl'erent standard of wages in contiguous and adjacent States, and the voluntary will bo compulled to yield to the involuntary. So completely have the colored men in tho South been already deprived by r r f'J thi; Democratic party of their constitutional ami legal rights as citizens of tho United Stales that tlicy regard the advent of that party to national powcras the signal of re-enslavement and are affrighted bccause the}* think all legal protection for them is gone. Few persons in the North realize how completely the chiefs of the Rebellion wield the *>olitici?l power which lus triumphed in the late election. It is a potentous fact that the Democratic Senators who came from the States of the late Confederacy, all, and I mean all, without a single exception, personally participated in the rebellion against the Northern Government. It isast'Il more significant fact that in those States no man who was loyal to tho Union, no matter how strong a Democrat he may be to-day, has the slightest chance of political promotion. The one great avenue to honor in that section is tho record of zealous service in the war against the Government. It is cettaiuly an astounding fact that the section in which friendship for the Union in the day of its trial and agony is still a political disqualification, should be called now to rule over the Union. All this takes place during the lifetime of the generation that fought the war. and elevates into the practical command of tho American Government the identical men who organized for its destruction and plunged us into the bloodiest contest of modern times. I have spoken of the South as placed by the late election in posession of the Government, and I menu nil that my words imply. The South famishes nearly threefourths of the electoral votes that defeated the Republican party and they will step to the command of the Democrats as unchallenged and us unrestrained as they held the same position thirty years before the civil war. Gentlemen, there cannot be political inequality among | citizens of r free Republic. ' There cannot be a minority of white |men in the South ruling a majority of white men at the North. Patriotism, solf-resiioct- Stsite nri<l(>- nrntorlinn of person and safety to the country, nil cry out against it. The very thought of it j stirs the blood of men who inherit equali ity from the I'ilgrims who first stood on j Plymouth Hock and from tin liberty-lovI ing patriots who came to the Deleware with William i'enn. It becomes a permanent question of American manhood. It demands a hearing and settlement, and that settlement will vindicate the equality of American citizens in all personal and civil rights. It will, at least, establish the equality of white men under the National Government, and will give to the Northern man who fought to preserve the Union n* large a voice in its government as may he exorcised by"the Southern man who fought to destroy the Li 1)1011. The contest j ust closed utterly dwarfs the fortunes und fate of candidates, whether successful or unsuccessful. Purposely, I may say instinctively, I have discussed the issues and consequences of that contest without referonce to. my own defeat, without the remotest reference to the gentleman who is elevated to the Presidency. Towards him, personally, I have no cause for the slightest ill-will, and it is with cordiality I express the wish that his official career may prove gratifying to himself and beneficial to the country, and that his administration may overcome the embarrassment which the peculiar source of its power impress upon it from the hour of its birth. At the conclusion of lilainu's speech he invited the largo crowd into his house and for nearly an hour an informal reception was hold. Successful Treatment of Diptlierlu. Dr. 11. I'. Gauthier contributes the following to tho Medical Review ; While at Xatches Miss., in the early part of 1865, I was led, through my experience with an epidemic then and there prevalent, to adopt the treatment I now ! Drniuwo tn (losnrihn. I^nrinc* *l?5u nni_ I?I ? ? ? t, i detuic about one* hundred eases of dipj thcria wore successfully ireated in the manner about to bo described. For some years subsequent to my return to Illinois I treated all the cases I cncountered(fifty in number)with complete success by the same means, and I have since treated about ono hundred and fifty cases, all with the aamo rAult except in two cases where death occured. the patient being almost moribund when coming under treatment. Previous to the adoption of the present mode of treatment my results wore by no n.eans as satisfactory, the disease, proving fatal in at lease one-third of tlie whole number of cases. The treatment which has proved so successful in my hands is as follows : The patient is ordered tincture of iodine in ten or twelve drop doses ever}' hour, well diluted with water, so long as tho fever lasts, subsequently reducing it to ten drops every two and finally evory three hours ; local applications of tho drug are made use of at the same timo. These latter should bo made by tho physician himself at least twice a day. For internal use, J give, latterly, the decolorized tincture; bread and starchy articles of diet aro at the same time used in abundance. Such is my treatmont. * ' - -"v /:Ov.

North and South, they will greet it with such scornful anger everywhere that it will be the last instance, as well as the first, and no future disappointed miscreant will dare defy' the warning. "In the civil war one great crime was attempted, which honorable belligerents on either side regard with unanimous horror. We mean the attempt to inoculate the country with yellow fever. Hut it pales in wickedness beside Blaine's nttempt to inoculate the country with sectional passions, to tear open the healed wounds of the Rebellion, to permeate the North with a sense of humiliation from the election of Governor Cleveland to the Presidency, to infect freedom with the fear of re-enslavement, to inspire white workmen with the dread of the freedmen's competition in their fields of labor, and to impeach the sincerity of the allegiance of nil Southern white men. No rebuke is too severe for this villainous speech, and the shame of it is aggravated by the fact that'it was as deliberate as it is dastardly. Blaine's words arc not an unpremeditated harangue of hot temper. They are the studied utterrance of coldblooded malignity. Since he cannot rule he would ruin, lie would enrso his country with jealousy, and discord, and misery, because he himself is jealous discordant and miserable." "I'ut ve believe that there is small danger of harm from such words as his at this day. We have faith that the evil he would wreak upou his country will bo visited on his own head. If the Republican party does not unload itself of Blaine after this speech, it will add damnation to defeat." "WORK FOR. AVOMKX. Now Orleans Gives Kmployinout to Many IntolFiifcnt and Deserving Women. When it first became known that the Cotton Centennial Exposition would fur nisli employment for women iii the clerical departments, the managers of the exposition and all their friends, relatives and even chance acquaintances were immcdiatoly heseiged by hundreds of Indies anxious to secure woak. The character of these gentle applicants was, to say the least, interesting, the unwritten histories of many of them touching, the desolation and need ol many, heart-breaking. Shy, shadow}wan-faced women, whom want bad routed from the sweet security of frugal homes began to hunt the big, busy exposition otlice. The exposition was a great door opened wide into anew world, whero all hoped to find nourishing food and some to learn the royal road to independence. And so these ladies began to write lettors to the exposition managers. Ulibit.si ness like, gentle, dainty little missives, reminding one of the poetry in oldfashion Indies' albums, but relating with pathetic bravery the need and anxiety of the writer. With what dignity of phrase was the aching wound of poverty patched over in some of those letters of application that fluttered likq a first fall of show into the exposition office ? And, too, there were received other letters, straightforwad and outspoken, from young women who were learning to feel the true nobility of the workwoman"*! life, and who asked tho way to selfhelpful living.

C'oi.rMMA, November 15.?Ooverno# Thompson, in repl}' to the question as to what effect the olcction of Cleveland and Hendricks would have upon tho business interests of the country, said that it would be difficult to overestimate tl.n good results which will follow from thu restoration of tho Democratic party to power. This election is more than a mero pnrty triumph. Won by a combination of the Democrats with honest Republicans, the election is a protest against the corrupt practices which in their long lenao oi power, uepuuucans nave permitted to increase until tho very foundations of the Government were endangered. Tho demand for reform and honesty in the administration of the Govorniuou^, has como from tho people in unmistaka* hlo language. Public officers will now bo held to a strict accountability. This result, alone, is worth all the effort which the election has [coat. The corrupt uso of power by public ollicers is demoralizing to the people of the whole oouii* try. This evil will now cease. Tho relations between tho two races at tho South will henceforth he those of entire harmony. The only differences between them heretofore have boon with regard to politics. Those dlforences have been kept alive and increased by tho machin* alionsofthe Federal officeholders, whose only hope for continuance iu office was by fomenting discord between the races and sectional difference between the two politionl parties. Kven thoso of tho Federal officials wliohavo not been porsouully corrupt, have used their offices for their own advancement and that of thfir party, without regard to the wolfure of their country. Iiitter political partisans, their presence here is n standing menace to our people. They aro disturbers of the peace?the inveterate foes of quiet and good tovernmont at . the South.
