Cougressional nominations of all the members aro pending, and some havea close contest. Hunter, of Virgioia, although ho lives only across the Potomae from Washineton, will tind his time occupled to prevent Fitz-Hugh Lee from taking his scat from him. Gen.

Cox, of Ohlo, decllues a renomination, but he dreads the torrid climate of u Washington summer, and wants to roturn to nis law practice. Mo Maliou will have something to do to explain lhls courss to the soldiers In N district whom he has grossly misrepresented.
