AGAIN DECLINES.

Mr. Blaine has again expressed himsei on the Presidential question. He dose* , the interview in the following words: >*The Presidency is an office without sleep. I am now sixty-two years old. and although you have told me, and I believe that in heart, lungs, kidneys and otherwise I am free from organic disease, suffering only from torpidity of the liver, Ido not believe that if I were to be inaugurated I would live out term. I find life too full of congenial work and too full of happiness to feel called upon or ineiiaed to throw it away. If I was assured, there fore, of a nomination and election to the Presidency, I could not accept it. At wy ago and with my temperament, and knowing what the effect of along lite es exhausting labor has been upon my vitality, it would be constructive suicide. ,■ * '.V „ js- ~
