A gen tleman qnoted from Thad. Stevens, where that notorious leader proclaimed the whole recon struction policy outside of the Constitution, and demanded his Duck-ery looted slick' ery. as usual, and said : "Oh, I . only meant Confederate money.' We now understand the oath Oliver made here recently, that he was worth $10,000. We tnppose it was only Confed. ! O. IL Duck-etj loses his temper and calls as names. -One epithet he uses sometimes is "Buzzard. w In 18G1 Oliver ridiculed the A- 'nHiinJiSTe andTmiJ1etA-'Qfr8"'and F St n pes tor his own promotion. He would do it again. Why could not .he and bis. father stick to their old Union love just as John Minor DotU of Virginia, and Andrew Johnson of Tennesse did? Botts remained at his home and proclaimed himself neutral, and this when both armies were fighting around his house. He was arrested, perhnps once, and retained but a khort time. And to-day, Botts and Johnson are opjiosed to this Radical party. Can any body doubt their devotion to the Union iu its darkest hour? But Oliver aud lis father, true to that dem agogue and selfish nmhitimis spirit, that ul- wnys actiintes them, joined with the current aud became active participants and leaders iu the war. They then became by their own showing, teiliful secessionists aiul murdera's and rebels. These nieu by their own showing , loved the Union mainly because they thought by keeping the Union they conld keep-their slaves. ' From the same motives, they would to-day repudiate the American Eagle again, and re-establish shivery if they could. Oliver said in a speech nt Richmond court, ia Sept. 1W1: "I was a Union mau bid now am u tear man, as every true man ought to be. I ask you ntA to ao but to come tciih me. 1 Sp8oial. to Baltimore .Sun. Afoandoniint $t the Proposal for New Democratic Nominees. w "Washington, Oct. 20. - The idearof a new nomination by the Democracy' will doubtless' be aban doned by all classes, now that there are but thirteen days intervening be- iore tno election day;, nevertheless. there are some prominent democrats who cling to the original suggestion so tenaciously tnat it would ho diffi cult, Jf at all posiible, to reconcile them to anything short of the withdrawal oi the present nominees. From advices received from New Yorkjjlus ypniu, we gather!, the. i- fi'rjnation-arnax it s proposed! oy ine original advocates of new nominess, in view of the failure to perfect their first named plan, to have an authori tative announcement from the Ration al Democratic Executive Committee that the present nominated electors be voted for without reference to Sey mour and Blair, or without instruc tions to them to cast the electoral vote for any particular candidate, ! but in a' m ' case of the election of a majority of conservative electors, then that thev give their votes for President and Vice President for such persons as may hereafter be determined updn as pro per representatives of the entire con servative voters of the country. In the meantime, the eourse of the Xew York World is severely crticised, and none are found who do not con demn it, The managers of that jour nal are blamed especially for suggest ing the withdrawal of the nominees, or either of them. Upon the above ! not ion of the conductors of the paper he first impression was that the kVorld editorial was the result of a con ference .with those who had authority to call the democratic executive ccm- now? By order of the Board of County Commis sioners the following gentlemen were appoint ed judges of election. I " ' 1 . JOHN FREY, Clerk.

But of all the Duck-cry tribe Oliver, by look nnd ncti corresponds more nearly with the bow-legged muscofy Duck which scatters his filth as he goes, like all the goose family. This is tbe filthiest of domestic birds. He lives from the filth of kitchens, and eats readi ly what would sicken the healthiest kind of a buzzard.
