As will be seen by special dispatch from Virginia City, published elsewhere, the Republican State Central Committee yesterday resolved to hold a State Con- ~vention at Austin, May 18th, to select delegates to the National Republican Convention, which meets at Chicago on June Sd. Primaries are to be held in the seyeral counties on or before May 9Th. Our dispatch further informs us that the Blaine men had a clear majority in the Committee. that is to say, judging from informal expressions Of individual MEM bers. It seems to have been the desire Of the Committee to steer clear of any chance Of . split N the party in this State. To this end the idea was freely expressed that the Austin Convention ought not instruct the delegates to the Chi cage Convention for any particular can didate. This policy is advocated with a view Of letting in Mackay and other pow erful Grant men as delegates to Chicago. It is even limited that if this much is conceded, the supporters of Grant will make no effort to capture the Austin Con- vention. 1t remains to be seen how mag unanimous the Blaine men will be. They may take all, or let in Mackay and Others whose substantial assistance they will need At the polls, just as they please. The State is too close to admit Of the alienation of heavy factors, and SO we may As well record it in advance that there will be no rough-and-tumble fight among the factions for the control Of Ne vada's delegation. Liver pads will be unknown in the Austin gathering. and a half-and-hal delegation is most likely to be sent to Chicago.

In our announcement of the TRAN SCRIPT as campaign paper, we st ated that tits the only republican paper in the coun. ty. We intended to say in the city, but for some unaccountable reason the word county" took the place Of the word city" Our thanks are due to those calling attention to the mistake, particu- larly 10 those papers which pointed ii out by throwing mud, to the exten: of a half column or more of space, which ought 10 have been devoted to the inter- csts of the principles they claim to repre- sent, rather than to US for slight mistake, which a single word would suffice to make correct. We assert that the TRANSCRIPT IS the only republican paper III the city OF Austin, and that it will, without fear or favor, advocate re. publican principles, and support that party, so leng Us it is in the right. We shall not be its slave, as are those papers, which, in their Llllipu,ian way, have at " loSu uS 1Ol 0uSOC0tluS "ANG is right, and according to our conscien. t,ous belief. While urging republican principles, we hold ourselves ever ready to criticise the party and its men; and if we see the parry being weakened and de- feated by bad men and bad administra- lion, we Will refuse such men our sup port; and should the ia!rigues of these men be too deep for the honest part of the party to overcome, we believe the party should suffer defeat for its own publication. Dishonesty corruption, un constitutional principles and acts should be the enemies of every paper, irrespec- tive of the party in which they exist; and only in unyielding opposition to these, though the party suffer temporary defeat, can man truly serve party aud country at the same time.

resolution, amid great confusion: Resoloed, That it is not the province of the State Committee of this party to declare in ad- vance the policy of the party, and in the fu- ture it is our wish that no such attempt be made. He said he came rom the West to support the Greenback ticket to his home here in Maine, and he would never favor fusion. Mr.. Benson moved the tabling of the resolu- ton, and Mr.. Devine opposed it. Rev. W. F. Eaton wanted to know how the Greenbackers are to be benefited by electing Hancock. The money power stands behind Hancock as well as Garfield. He believed the minority are part Of the Greenhack party as much as the majority, and had an equa. right to their opinions. If we put the Democratic leaders into power we are no better off than if we put in the Republicans A Democrat said to me, "You help us elect Hancock and after his four years we will step out and let your man in" Oh, yes! when they have got we'll into power they will step out and let us in. The Democratic leaders are dangerous. We don't propose togo out and kick up dust, but we shall defend our opinions. We will rejoice now in having the Republicans under foot, but don't let us permit another party to put their foot on us. The question was then taken to lay Mr.. Ferris resolution on the table amid cries of question" The resolution was declared car ried, the vote doubted, put again and decided carried. Cries came for Plaisted, but Mr.. Plaisted was declared sick at his hotel Congressman Ladd took the floor ard urged fusion. He thought Greenbackers we're as much interested in the election of Hancock as | the Democrats. Cries of Fogg arose, but motion was made | to adjourn and the convention adjourned Just a. Scion Chase and the minority of delegates left the hall, at 4.45 p. m.
