Whaf WNI Malone Do?

Some OF our contemporaries are specu-
hitting as to 'what General Malone will
do" 1t seems to us that it requires very
little reflection TO arrive at a conclusion on
this point. He is man of great resources,
and though terribly beaten will go to work
again and at once to dispute the election for
the General Assembly. The fact that Mr..
Boiling has been removed from his place at
Newport's News shows that he still COM
mands the Administration; and we must
go to work with will not only to hold the
ground gained in the late election, but 10
sweep the General out entirely in the next
contest. In order to do this we must send
our best men TO Lynchburg, and organize,
and work in every neighborhood, town.
ship, county, and district in the State to
give our people honest administration, and

The Choice of Delegates.


The Democratic Committee OF this city
will meet on Tuesday night nextto provide
Cor the election Of the twenty-seven dele
o.,es whom Richmond Is entitled to send
20 the Iynchburg Convention. There VIII
no no difficulty In getting good men. We
have abundant material; and with the inn
nrov,ng prospects. State and national, OF
Tho Democracy, there is desire quite gen.
cral among members Of the party TO be OF
service to IL. Men enter the army and fight
60 much more heartily when they believe
they will win The city, therefore, WIZ
have no trouble in securing proper dele-
cation; the only question Is how shail IL DC
selected.
II will hardly be deemed necessary to
hold a primary election for this purpose
The trouble and expense would be too
great. But two other. plans are open:
/ That the wards select their own dele
eatcs in ward-meetings. 2. That the wards
elect members to city conyention-the
convention TO choose and send to Lynch
burg twenty.seyen Of the best Democrats
10 be found in Richmond. The judgment
OF the city committee on such matters Is
usually good, and any conclusion u
may reach. after full discussion and calm
consideration, we can cheerfully promise
to abide by. twill be great gratihca'ioh
10 have a delegation Of marked distinc-
fiona delegation composed not solely OF
men Of high rank as speakers, but OF some
of these, and Of spirited young men ana OF
old and faithful servants OF the party.
There should be generous admiXture OF
old and new blood; Of the veterans worn
In our political battles, and OF the younger
men who are all stre with enthusiasm ana
desire 10 serve their country.
III cruel fortune should throw the next
Legislature into the hands OF the CoSlltion-
lists, they would in all probability resume
work where they left of last winter. Inc
congressional districts would be so az
ranged As TO try to give the control OF the
next House OF Representatives to the Repub-
licans. The judicial circuits would be re-
arranged to make circuit judges OF some
OF the county judges who have been most
servlceablc TO their party. Worse than all
for us, Richmond might have a new char
ter thrust upon her. The Governor who
appointed his negro messenger to place
OF authority in the public schools could
not safely be counted upon to veto char
ter that provided, substantially. for a
mixed board of police-commissioners, and
mixed captains, sergeants, and rounds
men OF the force.
Let us enter upon the work OF the sea-
son with consciousness OF its magnitude,
and. beginning it with spirit, prosecute it
wisely and successfully to the end.

Anti-Mahone.

Certainly we know as well as anybody
else. and we stated. that the figures we gave
Yesterday from the Second district indi-
Gated MAuoxR's unpopularlty rather than
actual Democratic gains. But, after all,
where's the differenceY There can be but
two parties in Virginia. MALONE repre-
seuts one. The men who defeated him the
other day represent the other. Mr.. KEI-
LEY's call says the fight is against "boss-
ISM" Well, that was surely one OF the
issues which were prominent in the Second
district last week. Say that the Democrats
proper did not carry that district, or that
the Republicans, or even the negroes, were
banded against MALONE, or state the case
as you will. the one prominent fact remains
that Malone tods defeated.

"Don't let up. on them" said a good
Hanoyerian to us. But we cannot keep up
a fire on a single topic for five months.
Besides, the Lynchburg Convention is TO
meet in July, and lay down platform for
the party. Once more: The reading pub
lie will become surfeited with the subject.
The facts are all before the people. The
stump is the place to make them tell upon
the masses. We don't intend to lose sight
OF the subject altogether, but at the same
time we cannot play upon one string all
the time

WASHINGTON, ID. c.. May 29.-If what
the vast majority Of white Virginmns who
have come to this city recently say OF Ma
hone can be relied upon, the Generals
forces in the next election will be composed
entirely OF negroes and the white men who
are now In Office by his influence. They
speak Of him in more denunciatorv terms
than even the Democrats do, and that is no
easy feat. They say he has debauched their
party, which never was strong In numbers,
and only had the purity OF its principles to
depend upon for Its future growth and
prosperity. They scout the idea that Ma
hone will be the boss of the Virginia dele
cation in the next Republican National
convention, and say that he will attempt at
the presidential election, as he did at the
last one. TO throw the vote OF Virginia to
any party that will advance his own selfish
interests the far,hest. - Correspondence of

A. A. BLOW, Esq, commissioner for
Virginia from Leadville, Col, is in the city
in the interest OF the great Mining EXPOSE
ton to be held in Denver, Col, in July and
August next. Mr.. BLOW Is Il son of Judge
BLOW, of Norfolk. Va. Speaking OF Mr..
Blows visit to Virginia, the Norfolk Land
mark says:
His object is to have the mineral re-
sources Of Virginia fully displayed. illus
trated at the Denver Mining Exposition. so
that part of the vast tide OF capital which
streams by us may be stopped in this State
and made productive in the development
Of our mineral regions. The approaching
exhibition at Denver may be properly
called a congress OF the mining and mine
raj interests of the whole world, and men
from all parts of Europe, the United States,
British America, and even from Australia,
will attend it. This will be the third held
at that place, and capitalists attend these
expOsitions with Uie1c to business, and
nothing else. Many Of them pass through
Virginia on their way without being aware
that they are leaving behind them the
cheapest, and in many cases the best, min
cral lands on the continent, and Mr.. Blows
idea is that when they are gathered at Den
yer, Virginia should be able TO speak to
them for herself by means of proper eabi-
net of minerals, to which he will person
ally add the necessary statistics.

GIVES Up yRGINIA.-The Philadelphia
Telegraph, Republican, says:
"The pivotal States OF the Union now
are New York. Indiana, and Ohio, for the
of Malone in Virginia in last
weeks local elections indicates that in a
national contest. with his waning power,
Virginia will again fall into the Democratic
line, making again a solid South"
Note, too, how this Republican journal
assumes that the Mahoneltes are nothing
but Republicans.
