Ngw Yonx. March 8.-Ths whole body
Of Republican Senators favor the admis.
sion Of Kellogg. Outside OF carpst-bag
Senators there is nj hearty approval OF
Blaino's course. Many say that he
charged upon the administration like a
wild bull before IL did any net In regard
TO Louisiana aud South Carolina, and
that he evidently hopes 10 succeed Hayes
with tho radicals by keeping old issues
alive.
The Times Washington special says
Blaine Is quite disappointed BY the fail.
ure Of his first attempt to lead the Sen
ate. II he had not taken tho manage.
ment Of this case from Morton. Kellogg

tiers 10 which Blaine alluded. and which
are alleged to have been written by
Evarts and Matthews. and denisl hav.
ing any knowledge Of them or Of having
authorized such representations 70 b.
made. Doubts are expressed that any
such letters were writ on by Evarts and
Matthews. Blaine knew the President
had declined responsibility for them.

OF his friends, seems to be quite easy In
his mind. He believes himself right

some where. He has an admirable
temper and does not scare or worry pso.
pie who have come near him. They say
they are convinced he what he
says. The Republicans who are OPP
posed to his course. while no less op.
posed. are beginning to think Of other
tactics than more opposition. They cry
out for delay. Blaine, while riding out
with some friends, remarked With con.
siderable feeling that be had not been
consulted at all In regard to The parties
selected for positions In the cabinet. He
added with marked emphasis, that be
did not ssem TO have any more influence
in the premises than he bad on the floor
