CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA, Aug. 10. -
Nominations of candidates for the House
OF Delegates are being made all over the
State. The Republicans are putting forth
their strongest men under the direction OF
Malone, who is making minute prepara-
tions for an exhaustive canvas of the en-
tire State by the best speakers he can
command, and the local candidates will
leave nothing undOne which will advance
their interests, with the hope, in case OF
election that they may re-elect their chief
to the United States Senate. The south
western counties of the State will be the
theatre of action, and a spirited and ex-
citing canvass may be expected, as every
inch of the ground will be fully contested
in those counties which have hitherto
been the chief supp 'rters Of the Read
iusters. Hon. JnO. +. Massey, of this
county, the Democratic candidate for
Lieutenant Governor. will visit
every section OF the State
and will do everything possible
in his peculiar and unequaIed way to
represent to the people the true issues at
stake. With Gen. Fitzhugh Lee as the
standard bearer, and with reliable and
popular men as local candidates to draw
out the lukewarm voters the chances for
the success of the entire Democratic
ticket will be very hattering.

ton" Reveals Traces OF a Crime.

hauling the plaster and other debris on
the steamer FELTON,, and have found a
fragment of metal belonging to a cabba, a
bunch OF bright twisted wire, and a piece
Of tin believed 10 have been the lid OF a
dynamite canister. The canisters 10 which
such lid would belong are one inch in di-
ameter and three inches IN length, and
II would require several Of them to do the
work Of the explosion. The finding OF the
cabba clasp is considered important, Ger

senger Miller that he saw a man unhOOk
the companiou-way door, place a cabba
behind 1t, and reh0ok the door again.
Government Inspector Frank Hand and
