the GAzETTE's correspondent to-day ,saiu ne
expected to go to New York to attend the
meeting of the campaign committee OF the
national democratic committee, which Is
called to meet there on Tuesday next,and OF
which he ia q member. Mr.. Barbour does
mt know who will BIZ chosen chairman Oh
that committee, but thinks that MIR. Scott,
if q ected, will conduct the campaign most
efficiently. Mr.. Barbour said some Virgin
ians from the Sth district told him this
mornipq that democratic affairs didn't look
as we'll there 80 they might, but that ne re-
piled it was entirely too soon to be looking
at democratic affairs there now, and that
those who were looking at them now might
be in the condition of the man who locked
six ways for SUNDAYS.
AT this time yesterday, as stated Ia THIS
correspondence of that date, MIR. Randall

would be able to resume his seat in the
House on Monday next. Last night, how
ever. be had another hemorrhage, aud to
day he is 30 much worse that at one
time it was reported be was dying. The
bemorrhapes come from blind piles, which
are so deeply seated that they can hardly
be reached so as to ligate them or even to
apply styptics The Philadelphia surgeon
who operated upon him short time ago is
expected here this afternoon, and, II his pa

the selection of Mr.. Goodlooe, OF

executive committee of the national repub-

who hoped to be selected, puts an efiectual
uuetus upon the General. A well known
and wide awake Virginia republican, now
here, says Malone has always been leader
of his party, not follower, and it is not
likely, in his old age, he is going TO get out
