1t is now said that Senator Blaine
denies that he intends to attack the
President when Congress meets. lie
has written to u friend in Cincinnati :
They are attributing to me desire
to attack President Hayes, and make a
flaming speech against the Adminislra,

&c. There is not word OF truth in
it," Mr., Blaine has found out thai.
there is nothing to be made by attack
ing Hayes Southern policy, and he is
evidently trying to court favor with

The Turko- Russian war goes brave
ly on, but the dispatches Of late arc SO
contradictory, and so mixed up, that
we can't understand them. They re.
mind us good deal Of the dispatches
we used to receive during the Conlede
rate var You read one day that the
Russians have achieved great victory,
and the next day that the Turks had
been successful in repulsng the Rus
slams, and inflicted heavy loss on them,
Then you read again that the Russians
whipped the Turks, and then that they
didn't, and 50 on. On the whole, We
don't know what to believe. One
thing is sure: The Russians will whip
the Turks, or the Turks will whip the
Russians; or, both will be whipped,
we don't care which. But it will take
an immense amount of blood to settle
