The Republican State Convention.

RICHMOND, VA, April 3.-Gen
cral Malone is represented to be
busily engaged in preparing for
the Republican State convention
which his committee called to meet
at Petersburg. May II. The dele
gates to this body after they are
elected will meet in some conven
lent place in their congressional
district and decide how the dis
trct delegates to the Chicago con-
vention shall be chosen, whether in
State convention or at district
convention, OF selected by the dele
gates to the State'convention there
assembled. Itseems probable that
Malone will use his influence eth
er to have the Chicago delegates
selected at the State convention or
at least by delegates to that bod,
at their district meeting. Tie lat
ter plan would give Malone u deal
Of trouble to secure delegates ia
vorable to Sherman or any other
particular candidate, but as the
selection Of these representatives
TO the national convention at the
State convention wonld appear to
hold defiance of the national
committee, it will probably not be
passed by Mahone.-Balto. Sun.
