THE EIGHTH VA. CONGRESSIONAL DIS
TRICT.

We have noticed with some regret of
late that a spirit of detection was settling
down upon the nominated ticket of the re
publicans of the eighth Virginia district,
in the Alexandria section aud perhaps else
where Weregretted this for we had hoped
that unity and harmony might prevail to
an extent that would give us the district
under the circumstances. We confess to
want Of full understanding and apprecia-
ton Of Virginia politics as presented to us
on any hand at the present time. There is
very little apparent unity and harmony
with either party, and it looks like
scramble at the best with the old scratcher
to take the hindmost. As we understand
the matter, Mr.. BAYLY, the republican
nominee for congress in that district, an
nounced himself as q candidate in a card
published in the Alexandria Gazette in
called q convention early, which declared
Nh. BAYLY the nominee. If the Conven-
ton was improperly organized or conducted
that fact has not been brought to our at
tention, bur since the nomination we have
been advised that feeling Of dissatislaC.
ton has been engendered in the district,
which is not conducive to republican unity
and success. We have not meddled in this
matter, aud do not propose to do so now,
beyond giving the facts as we understand
them. We desire republican success there
and elsewhere in the land, aud whatever
initiates against that brings feelings of
profound regret.
It appears now, from the card which we
publish below, that the nominee has been
made aware of the dissatisfaction that his
nomination has excited and, 50 far as We
are able TO discover, lie is disposed to re-
mand the question of candidacy back to {
properly.cSled district convention, and
pledges himself to abido by its verdict
under the most generous terms on his part
This appears to be manly, fair and pR
triotic, and eyiuces a most admirable dis
position on his part to defer to the wishes
of the people even now, after he has beer
canyassng his district for some two months
without apparent opposition until quite re
Gently. There is abundant time for th
calling aud holding of another convention
and the prosecution Of vigorous canvas
under its determination, aud it is to b.
hoped that Mr. BAYLY's fair proposition
may be promptly acted upon, or forcve
after that the malcOutents Of that distric
will hold their peace,

Should Tennessee eleota republican gov
ernor In November there viii be considera-
ble surprise both north and south, and yet
there Is more than fighting chance for it.
There Is u crisis in the democratic party of
Tennessee. The danger to its continued
supremacy in the state is greater than
would appear to be the case if one should
be confined to the expressions of the state
press in obtaining means to form an opin-
ion, The regulars have nearly all the DEM
ocratic newspapers in their favor, and these
profess to belie1s that Wilson, the boilers
liquidation candidate, 7Sill not draw oil
many voters from the regular ticket, We
think they are mistaken. The virus Of re-
pudiation has taken deep hold Of the demo.
Gratis Of western Tennessee. That section
has been represented by low-tax men in
the legislature for several years; and the
twenty counties composing middle Tennes
see have been strongly against debt.paying
since the question was first agitated In
east Tennessee the regulars will find their
only sure pluralities over the repudiators,
and in that section of the state the repub.
licans will beat the strongest of the demo-
cratic factions.
The republican candidate for governor,
, Mr.. HAWKINS, is a thorough.gong debt
,over is hs polls the full party strength
he will get 05,OOO vot-'St. vot-S. Inc democratic
vote for TILDEg was 1873, ,16G. shO~' 80.
SON, the repudiation candidate, get $4,000
votes, which is much below the expectation
of his supporters, there will be left not
to exceed $1,000 votes for the regulars,
allowing some increase of the total vote
since 1876. If, as the campaign progresses,
the inroads upon the regular ticket by the
repudiators become great enough to alarm
the democratic dcbt.payers, it is not at all
unlikely that the former will throw large
vote to Mr.. HAWKINS In order to insure
the election of q debt-paying governor.
Although there is no democratic division
upon the electoral ticket, the effect of the
split upon county contests and upon the
canvass for members of congress is very
favorable to the republican cause. We are
very sure TO gain one member at least. A
republican success on governor and state
officers will place tho party in Tennessee in
firm position, which will bring her by
1884 where she belongs, into sympathy with
the loyal north.
