RIcUMoND, Va, Aug 1O.-Two votes were taken
for a nominee for Governor tonight They indicate
that Malone is rather stronger than was supposed.
His promises to demand from the bondholders
readnstment of the debt, gains him strength in the
rural districts where personally he could command
no votes. He has as yet held LITTLE more than
third of what is necessary 10 nomination. II 1t
il fonnd that Daniels will be beaten, Daniels
friends will probably go over to Halliday.
The Malone men if forced to desert their fayorite
will prefer to rally upon Judge Staples of the Court
Of Appeals the only member of the Court who did
not sustain the inyiOlablity of the Funding Bill
contract and whose record makes him probably as
objectionable on the debt question as Malone. He
would however command votes in the Southwest
his own section, which would never be obtained for
Malone. Gen. Terry and Gen. Ftzhugh Lee have
dropped out Of the fight. The Committee on Plat
form have not yet reported but have agreed on reso
utions setting forth the poverty of tie State her
inability TO bear more taxation, and the desirabiliy
indeed the necessity for better adjustment of the
debt. yet misunderstanding reputation.
