Senator Blaine's Position.

New York, April pa Herald re-
porter called on Senator Blaine yester-
day, who said: 81 am not to be inter-
viewed, you know" With regard to
changes in Louisiana, he said he had
nothing to say. To a query whether
the leaders of the Republican party
contemplated any movement regarding
Hayes action in withdrawing troops
from Louisiana, Blaine said it was not
fitting for him to answer that question
Mt present. Senator Blaine, referring
to the San Francisco story, that he has
prepared u resolution to present to Con-
gress for a new inquiry into the late
Presidential election, says it has not
the slightest foundation. The story is
the invention of u lunatic or idiot.

talk with the President. He said he
was glad to see the President pursuing
such a course as would bring together
the discordant elements of the country
in harmony, and that all the President
had to do was to perform his duty to
produce that desirable result. The
President in reply remarked that it was
his purpose to pursue Il course which
he deemed best to serve the interests
and. harmony of the entire country,
thinking the time had come when every
effort should be made to that end. He

New Orleans, April 24.-There is no

troops are withdrawn and his men paid
off. The contingent fund, which Gov.
Nichols has consented to use for this
purpose, will be disbursed by his pay

JEFFERSON, o., April 8, 1877.
Mr.. u. p. Painter, Washington, d. c.:
MY DEAR SIR-Your letter of the
5th of July received. You ask whether
I remember what 1 said in favor of
President Hayes in my endeavor to pro-
cure his nomination at the Cincinnati
convention. l do remember it, after
what has since TRANSFERRED, with an in
dignation and bitterness of soul that l
never felt before. You knew with
what untiring zeal l labored for the
emancipation of the slaves of the South
and to procure justice for them before
and during the time l was in Congress,
and l supposed Gov. Hayes was in full
accord with me oil this subject. Ihave
been deceived, betrayed, and ever
Inundated by the conrse he has taken
to a degree that l have not the Ian
guage to express. During the first
month of his administration we find
him closeted with two of the worst and
most malignant enemies of the colored
race that can be found in all that slave
cursed region, and there counselling
with those malefactors how best he can
put the colored people under the iron
heel of their most bitter enemies, and
reduce them to n condition Infinitely
worse than they were before they We're
made free. 1 feel that to have eman-
cipated these people and then to leave
them unprotected would he a crime rs
infamous as to have reduced them TO
slavery when they were free; and for
Hayes to do this to men who had, at
the hazard of their lives, given him the
votes without which he new could
have had the power to do it is terrible

War News from Europe.

LONDON, April 23.--The Vienna
correspondent of the Times says: Ac-
cording to advices from the Russian
frontier, the Cars troops are moving
slowly OIL account of bad roads and bad
weather. The Roumanian roads are in
such a hopeless state that three weeks
are named as the shortest time in
which they can be made fit for heavy
military transport. The conviction
has gradually dawned that a far larger
force is required for the task which
Russia has before her than was at first
prepared. If the news from st. Peters
burg is to be trusted, an order for the
mobilization of the whole army was
actually decided on before the Car left
st. Petersburg. Whether this be the
case or not, it is certain that since the
troops in Bessarabia began to o to-
ward the frontier, the general move
ment of the Russian forces began
southwark and westward.
Vienna, April 23.-The Freie Presse,
wm..i has opposed the occupation of
any portion of the Turkish territory by
Austria, o declares it unavoidable,
and says the moment is near for such
counter movement.
Constantinople, April 23.--The Rus
sian charge d'affairs and staff of the
Russian embassy and consulate will
