PoLIrIcAL.-as stated in yesterdays
GAZETTE u meeting OF the city and
county democratic committees will be
held to- night to endeavor to uutangle
the affairs Ia which the party has got
ten il this legislative district. The
talk about the acton of the convention
in adiourning yesterday without max
ing nomination has in a measure
ouieted, many people to-day expressing
their entire Indifference as to the out
come. Various ways to bring about
settlement have been suggested. Some
propose that the four candidates ap-
point new sets of delegates who will
nominate candidate, while others pro-
pose another primary. 1t is not known,
however, whether all four candidates
will agree to any of the propositions
made. Mr.. May says ne will not go
,qto another primary and it is under
stooa that Mr.. Bendheim is willing to
jetthe question go before the voters at
rba gene,,sl election. The general
oninion is that if another primary is
ordered it shoultts be coupled with
convention, as each o. the tour canoi-
dates now in the field sLould STAND or
fall by the rule which was .Soop1eo aV
the outset of the canvass.
No other candidates have announceso
themselves since yesterday and now
the time for doing so has expired by
law. Mr.. +. 0. Bruce has withdraw

TEE SOUTHERN RAILWAYS PUR-
CHAsEs.-The item in yesterdays
GAZETTE in regard to the recent pur-
chase by the Southern Railway Com
pauy of land west of their depot has
caused considerable speculation as to
the real purposes of the company
Some are positive the establishment OF
work and repair shops is contemp!at-
ed, and that the generel repair depot OF
the road will be located on the newly
acquired territory. Others, however,
more pessimistic, think the company
merely want more trackroom, and that
to secure this is the real aim of the
railway officials. 1t is also said the
abandonment of the Wilkes street
track and tunnel is contemplated, and
that when the company shall obtain
possession of the land they are now
purchasing they will take possession
of the old Manassas Cap road bed south
of the grave yards and run around the
city to Union street. In the article in
yesterdays GAZETTE the words 1.-The
G, ,mpany is surreptitiously purchasing
lano. should have read 1.-The company
is circumspectly purchasing land"
