General Malone VS.. The National Dem
ocratic Committee.


Deserted by bis "faithful allies" and
finding his party stamped as counterfeit by
the National Democratic Committee, Gen.
eral MALONE declares it to be his purpose
TO fight on 10 the bitter end. His organ in
It's issue of yesterday not only deties the
power OF the National Democratic Commit
tee, but denies its authority to read the Re-
adjusters out OF the HANCOCK party. General
MALONE himself Is out, too, in a manifesto
which will tend to open the eyes Of the
Democrats OF Virginia to his real objects.
He as good as avows those objects to be the
retention in his hands OF the Legislature
OF Virginia, and the obtaining OF still fur
Their control over the fortunes OF the Com.
m0nwealth. We give a large portion of
his address as the best document which we
cosid now lay before our readers to aid
them in inducing all the true Democrats Of
Virginia 10 rally to the standard Of the reg
ulars, and secure the electoral vote OF Vir-
giniato General HANCOCK. We quote from
General MAHoNE's address as follows:
"The National Democratic Committee
has at last given formal recognition 10
the Funder faction and sought TO bolster up
its falling fortunes with an address. This
il no surprise TO any Resdiuster In Virginia.
The Readjusters OF this State have antici-
paied il for months and wondered why it
was DELAYED. Its effect has been discounted
months In advance. Indeed, the Funder
Committee have been recognized by the Ma
tional Committee in every way from the
outset OF the campaign. Documents have
been sent TO their headquarters; commun-
cations between Mr.. Barnum and the chair
man OF the Funder Committee have passed
constantly; the State has been filled with
foreign speakers IN their interest, paid by
the National Committee"
THAT'S good campaign document
We quote again from General MALONE !:
Thoughiless and timid, indeed, must be
The Readiusier who is shaken in his allegi-
ance at this hate day by any document pro-
mulgated by the National Committee.

who care D0ught for the name Of "Regu-
