Blaine advised the Eepublican organs
to publish his Mulligan letters, They
have not yet done so. We suppose the
reason for it is, when they get through
reading they find at the end of the batch
his request, “Burn this letter,” and at
once the “copy” goes into the stove in-
stead of to the compositor.

Blaine in a letter to Mr. Phelps now
declares that he got married twice to his
present wife, The first time was secrot
and not altogether legal, and a year after,
in 1851, March, he had the ceremony
again performed in a legal form, and that
in June following his first child was
born. This way he tries to get over the
Indianapolis interrogatories in the libel
suit with the Sentinel.
The Times says aflor going up. for sev-
eral days the election figures from Maine
began to come dow again and they bave

cepted as the official figures, Two years

the Republican vote is 76,012, a gain of
6,188, and the opposition 63,501, a loss of
2,318, the aggregate vote being 8,870 more
than in 1882, The Republican majority
is 15,411, In the corresponding election
of 1876 it was 14,906, so that Blaine is
just 565 votes ahead of Hayes. This is
not a very great result for so much mag-

principal teacher in the Penn's lpstitu-
tion for the instruction of the blind in

of Sarah C, Stauwood and B. L. Blaine
The marriage was secret. Having a
doubt of its validity under the laws of
Kentucky, which then stringently re
quired a license from the clerk of the
county court, I had the marriage solemn-
ized a second time in Pittsburg, Pa. the
20th of March, 1851, in the presence of
John V. Lemoyne and David Bell,
10 and 11. Jacob Btanwood was the
eldeat brother of my wife. I had no ac.
quaintance with him at the time of wy
marriage, had never seen Lim nor heard
from hum in any way, directly or indis
rectly, before my marriage, [ met him
for the first time in February, 1851, 1
had two letters from him afer my mar-
riage and before 1 met him—one warp'y
welcoming me as a member of the fami
ly ; the other inquiring if he could pro-
mote my bursiness interests by the loan
of money. 1 had no other correspond-
ence with him until after I had personal-
ly met him in February, 1852, My wife
had two other brothers, neither of whom
I had ever met when I came to New
England, in Feb, "52; nor did I ever meet
any male relative of my wife before my
arrival in New England, in Feb. '51.

The process of manufacturing envel-
i rently simple, although in
reality complicated True there are only
operations to be gong
} the cutting, gumming sad
olding, but the blending of the last two
operations into one makes necessary the
use of a complex machine. There is
wothing remarkable in the first part of
the operation. The paper, as it comes
from the factories, is cut in squares or
diagouvals measuring thirty or forty
inches, special diagonal shapes being
chosen for particular cutting-dies, in
order to save waste which would follow
from the sheet not being especially
adspted to the die. Each sheet will
average thirteen envelopes, which are cut
out by dies of innumerable sizes snd
shapes, but all verging on the diamond,
five hundred sheets being placed on the
presses at a time. In spite of all pro
cautions there is a waste of two pounds
in every forty. The folding and running
machines are now bronght into use, and
no more fascinating oocupation can be
found for a while than to walch their
lightuing-like motions as they turn out
finished envelopes at the rate of seventy-
fivea minute. Each of these machines
requires no other attendant than a girl
who reoecives the covelopes as they are
forced out, binds them and packs them
into boxes. Six of the machines are used
entirely for papetries, five for gmmming,
folding and printing at the sawe time,
and the rest for plain commercial envel-
opes to the packers in lots counted out
to suit.

FAMILY TIES OF COMETS.
There is a family of comets attending
in a senso on Jupiter, and another
family sttending similarly on Saturn,
precisely ns we should expect them to do
if originally expelled from these planets.
fer sach expulsion, though free to pass
away forever from their parent planets,
they would not be free to pass away
from the solar system. Thay would be
thenceforth attendant on the sun, but
with this y y, that no matter
what perturbations underwent, their
paths would always pass near #0 the path
of their t planet. Even if in some
future citenit a comet of this sort came
quite close—as it very well might—to the
planet it originally started from, it would
etill, very much disturbed, follow
a path po this charaoteristio,
however different from the path which it
had before traversed. After many mil
in a fow thousands of years, wonld re-
duce the span of its circuit. But even
then it would still be possible to classify
a comet whose orbit had been so changed
with the family of comets to which it had
originally belonged.
