Virginia.

In an article elsewhere in to-day's Dis
patch, we have ventured to express the
opinion, or to guess, that The northern Re-
publicans will not waste their time nor their
money on Virginia, nor on any other State
that is reasonably certain to vote for CLEvE.
LAND, but will do their utmost to carry
Florida, Louisiana, South Carolina, and
Nississippi-of course, after spending a
CIV hundred thousand dollars in Ohio and
Maine, which two hst-named States hold
State elections, the one in September and
the other in October. The Washington
correspondent OF the Alexandria Gazette
writes as follows:
ga gentleman who had conversation
with Mr.. Parsons, Mr.. Blaine's head man
In Virginia, last week says that the impress
sion made upon him by that conversation
was that Mr.. Blaine did not have much
hope OF carrying Virginia anyhow, but that
whether he carries it or not, he is not going
to interfere with General Malone in the
management OF the campaign. In this
connection II may be stated that as vet
there has been no agreement by
which the Mshoneltes and the Straight
outs can come together. Plans to
effect that purpose have been sug-
gested, and Logan has gone to see Blaine
TO consult with him as to the best one TO
DO adopted. AS an evidence OF how wide
the split between the two wings OF the
party really is. 1t Is only necessary 10 say
that though Collector Brady is General
Mahone's candidate for Congress In the
Petersburg district, Mr.. b. s. Hooper, the
present member from that district. has an
nounced himself the Straightout candidate
for the same district, and yesterday opened
his campaign at Lunenburg Courthouse"
We are not surprised to learn that Mr..
BLAINE has not much hope Of carrying Vim
ginia next fall. lie is too shrewd n poll.
tician to be the victim Of such hopes. Con.
sequently he win not trouble himself much
70 get the Straightouts and the MALONE Re-
publicans 10 agree upon one and the same
electoral ticket. Por the same reason he
viii have his campaign fund strictly guard
cd when application comes from this State
for any considerable portion of 1t. "Poor
preach, poor pay" Poor prospect of suc
Gees, poor contribution to the MALONE CAM
paign fund.
So matters appear 10 us at present. II
we find that we have been deceived as to
the purposes OF the Republicans concerns
ing the canvass in Virginia, we shall not
be slow TO sound the alarm and acknows
ledge our mistake.

Promise vs. Performance.

A Washington special in the New York
World says:
"Elkins, secretary OF the Republican
National Executive Committee, called up
on Senator Malone yesterday at the Arlng.
ton and talked over the situation in Yir-
GINA with him. The Senator. it Is said, in
formed Mr.. Rlkins that the State could be
carried for the Republicans, and that he
was willing to pledge himself to that work.
He thought the Rekdjusters and Straight
outs would be able this year to unite on a
ticket, and IL so, he claimed, it would give
them Republican majority. Mr.. Elfins
also called upon Senator Logan, in comp
ny with Senator Malone, and discussed lie
subject still further with him.
"Dezendorf said in an interview pub
lished here this afternoon that it is under
stood that n committee would be sent to
Virginia to try TO fix up plan for cOili-
ton between the Straghouts and the Re
adiusters, but he didn't Think it could be
done on the basis proposed, which was to
put all or nearly all Readiusters on the cleo
toral ticket. Elkins, It is said. will 90 to
West Virginia to look into the political sit
ustion there aud determine what can be
proftably undertaken in reference to the
campaign"
General MALONE promised to carry Yir-
ginia for his ticket in 1880, and again last
year; but his promises and predictions all
came to nought. He is willing to pledge
himself to do the work IL ELKINs will fur
nish the money. When we hear tsat this
is forthcoming, we shall notify the Demo-
Gratis of Virginia of the fact.
