SENATOR BLAINE AT 81. LEWIs.
Reported Remarks of Mr.. Blaine Com
ceruIng PIesident Hayes.
HIS VIEWS ON MEXICAN AFFAIRS AND
THE SOUTH.

NEW York, December -. Senator Blaine in
an interview at 81. Louis yesterday, said il was
the duty of Hayes to carry out the wishes of the
republican parry, but he had wandered from re-
publcsnism IN tie Southern policy, and he is in u
party now in opposition TO the republican party so
far As bis minIsration goes, and It is absurd to
suppose lhere can be any harmonG between Hayes
and the republican parry so long as be pursues his
present course.
There i not any great division of sentiment in
the republican party on the outhein policy. Tho
oonherners are lying low until they ret on top
They lead the democracy, and should their parry
get in power Ia 1850, they will show hand that
will surprise that class Of lepubhcsns VINO believe
in reconciliation.
The complete southern people ali not, in fact
reeonciled,. They are playing policy, and their
pulpose is to get possession OF the government,
ana rule II. a. they did before the war, aud then
all the establish cd results OF and loconslluc-
ton WI set ASIDE.
OF Mexican sdairs he spoke at length, and dep
lecated any war. lie said II ii -ht with Mexico
means nothing les tuan the acquisition Of more
territory IN the south west. Tuis means more
southern States, and more than we want. We
want more people. Ia 1 mote territory.

by Intended for pnce candy packages, was iound
