NEW ENGLAND STATES. THEIN PRESIDENTIAL PREFERENCES. From Our Syectal Correspenident, Wasntnaton, D, C., Feb. 7.—There aren good many men hors who profess to know nll about tho polities of New Enginnd. At lcust halt a dozen persons of prominence from each State think thoy can tell precisely what the dominant opinion is ut home, what influences ara working to counternot It, and the probabilities of sucvess or failure in onah instance. Iam constratnod to suy that some of these gentlemen have over- estimuted thelr own angacity, for thoy do not alt agree, and {t is Impossible that thoy should all veright. Morcover, oxperionce has shown that New England politics aro not s0 simple and straightforward that anybody can predict with certainty what thelr course will be. Tho opera tions of tho managers In some of the Statca hive been og tortuous and inexplicable on any reasonable hypothesis ns in any other part of the Union, But from all tho conversations St Is possible to construct a theory fn regurd to. tho probuble notion of each State on the Presidon- tial question that shall bo consisiont and do- contly supported by facts. MAINE 18 A CEITAIN BTATE, It ts dolightful to talk or write about Maino, Decnuse everybody knows whero sho fs tobe found.

Father Hinlin is now old and feeble, and will probably give way nt the expiration of his term to some younger man. But he has beon a strong man in his day, and stilt commands respect. Mr, Blaine, when all has been sald against him that can be sald, is the most splendid. figure tn publle Nfe. His name will lve when those of most of hla compcars have crumbled In forgetfulness, Roscoe Conkling is w wonderful spoaker, but ho has left no Impresa on bia times; has no hold on tho affections of tho peoplo; bas not the true courage or tho self-forgetfulnoss of a lender of the people; ts timid, Irresolutd, and coldly selfieh in tho hour of peril; fled to Baltimore when bo sbould havo delivered “ the grentest offort of his life"; and mado his slx-by-nine splurge on 0 pack of Cus- tom-House appointinonts concerning only his paltry ambition.
