The Virginia Republicans.

The Virginia Republican convention split
into two factions, Two conventions were
held, two sets Of delegates elected to Chicago,
two state committees organized, and two
electoral tickets appointed. This was ineyita-
blc. The fcud has been growing for years
and eliminated at Petersburg in the attempt
to enforce the unit rule.
There viii he forty eight instead of
twenty.four Republican delegates 20 from
Virginia to the Chicago convention. But
they will he IN opposing camps aud each
set fight against the admission of the other.
The Democrats are rejoicing at this con-
dition Of affairs. All good Republicans de.
plore It,
The National Convention will be called
on to settle the dispute and put those war
ring Republicans once more in unison with
each other. That it will do so wisely and
well no one doubts, aud when the work OF
that convention Is done the Republicans OF
Virginia will be found united upon one set
Of electoral delegates, and the people will
give those electors the right to cast the
twelve votes Of the state for the candidates
named at Chicago.
The Virginia Republicans may fight
among themselves, but when the enemy
comes in sight they will train all their guns
upon the Bourbon Democracy rcdeeming

from their rule and putting her in the
galaxy of Republican states.

VIRGINIA REPUBLICANS.
The Platform Adopted by the Malone
Branch of the Convention,

The following platform was adopted by the
Malone branch of the Republican convention
in Virginia.
We the Republicans Of Virginia in conven.
tion assembled, proclaim our fidelity to the
Republican party, state and national. It's or.
gani2ation, platforms, measures, and prinCi-
pies, as the best guarantee of common rights
and interests, certified no less by performance
than by promise. We again arraign the Demo
cratic party for its Justification OF It's profes.
sions is dGusivc double dealing with public
questions; to opposition TO equal rights; It's de-
nial of honest elections; its assaults against
protection; its refusal 70 abolish aggressive
war taxes the internal revenues; its failure
10 reduce the growing surplus In the national
treasury ts mockery Of civil service reform
Us trucking and feeble foreign policy;
It's continued obstruction to the Blair
school bill; its subordination of admin.
istrHtion to partisan ends and It's utter
lack of wise capacity and sincere intention
therefore. earnestly urge ali the voters of
Virginia to unite with us in this most mpOr.
tant election to depOsC the incompetent and
the continuance and extension of the protec.
tive system the repeal of the internal war tax,
ana the speedy passage of the Blair school
bill, all so necessary TO our material pros.
pcrity and popular elevation, and all depcn-
dent upon the vote in November next. These
and their related issues include every sub.
stantlal and practical question involved in
this great federal contest Gor civil rights at
last depend on state law and local sentiment
and all else Is but sound and fury, signifying
nothing save eager desire to divert popular
attention from the main concerns now In i'm.
mnent jeopardy.
Reo0'y,d, That our representatives in Con.
grcSs, or to be chosen next November, are
urged to use every proper effort To- maintain
and extend protection over all our interests;
TO remove internal taxes from our tobacco
and fruit; to secure the appropriations of the
Blair bill for our schools, and to obtain liberal
provision for the. Improvement of our rivers
and harhors, and especially Of Chesapeake
bay and It's tributaries, now so important to
national commerce and defense.
R,SO'rtd, That Virginia is Republican. and
that In this federal election, on the national
issues presented, we are confident that she
will rcsoutely cast and count her electoral
votes for the presidential nominee Of the Chi.
cngo convention, and In this connection we
pledge our united and vigorous eXertions.
RCS0lCed, That we are opposed to u conven-
tiOn to revise the state constitution as un.
necessary, costly, and dangerous, and that we
hold that all desirable constitutional amend
mentS can be more wisely and safely adopted
bylegislative action ratified by the people.
RtSOirtd, That we proudly indorse our exist
ing plan of party organization In Virginia and
It's sagaciOuS administration, and gratefully
acknowledge that to these we largely owe our
past victories, our present strength, and our
bright prospects of future success.

The Irish Catholic members of paria.
mcnt have met at Dublin, and made a
formal declaration as to the late papal re
script. They repudiatc it unequiyocally so
far as it relates to the political affairs of
Ireland. In the sixth and last section of
their declaration they say:
That while unreservodly acknowledging as
Catholics the spiritual jurisdiction of the
holy see, we, as guardians in common with our
brother Irish representatives of other crceds
of these civil liberties which our Catholic fore.
fathers have resolutely defended feel bound
solemnly to reassert that Irish Catholics can
recognize no right in the holy see to interfere
with the Irish people in the management of
their political affairs.
As the rescript of the pope was aimed at
but two things, viz: "boycottingn and 'the
plan of campaign" it is difficult to under
stand how this declaration can mean any
thing else than direct refusal to obey
the pope. 1t means that "boycotting' and
"the plan of campaign are to be continued
If found politically expedient in direct
opposition to the implied command of the
rescript, The situation is most interesting
