ington. General Malone and the
party of repudiators have succeed
ell in rending the Conservative
party in twain, carrying part Of the
State Committee with them.
Shrewd observers say that repudi-
ators stand II fair chance for sue
cess. General Dizendorf, of Nor
folk, leading Virginia repudiator,
who is thoroughly familiar with
political affairs in his State, says
the Malone faction of the Conser-
vative party is using every effort to
induce the Republicans to vote
with them to upset the debt COM
promise agreed upon between the
last legislature and the creditors of
the State, as simple matter of
right and honesty. He says Re-
publicans of Virginia do not look
! with favor upon the compromise,
because it cheats creditors out Of o
part OF their dues, but knowing
that the settleme mt already agreed
upon is the most favorable one that
can be obtained, the Republicans
will almost unanimously vote with
the more honest portion of the
Conservative party and preserve
the agreement.

NEW YORK, August I9th.--A
Times Providence special says: The
German teacher Linck states that
on the day following the scene at
Cononchet, he received a telegram
from Nelson w. Aldrich, Repre-
sentative in Congress from this
State, dated this city asking him
to come to Providence at once. AL
drich was acting in conjunction
with Danielson, editor of the Prov
idence Journdl,and Senator Antho-
ny to shield Conkling, and it was
very desirable that something be
world the impression that Conkling
was q much abused man and inno-
cert of the charges gossipers make
against him. Linck came here,
saw Danielson, and after an inter-
view wrote very elaborate state
ment to be published in the Journal
the following morning. On the
day of publication, Linck was
much surprised to receive visit
from Mrs. Sprague, who talked to
him rather severely for not censur-
ing the Governors conduct in a
stronger way in his statement.
Linck learned from Mrs. Sprague
that Danielson had sent q proof of
the statement to her very early in
the day for revision, and that ac.
counted for many changes in the
wording and mutations, that were
SO apparent. Linck also says he
asked Danielson whether he ought
not to get out writ for Sprague's
arrest, and was advised 70 see +. H.
Hazard, who persuaded him to drop
the matter, and Coukling's name
was kept out of the petty Courts.
Hazard was leagued with Daniel
son and Anthony to shield Conk-
ling.
