fort Of the President elect. The Doctor had a

The Democratic aristocrscy heresbOut are talk
ing very mysteriously, this morning, and con-
sumed most Of the Sabbath, yesterday in the
same gossip, about the chances Of trouble to-day,
when Mr.. Lincoln goes TO take his oath Of office,
and every now and then q malicious wish es-
| capes their lips, that some traitor hand would
be raised against him. 1t 10 not among the Ia
boring classes that such iniquitous feelings pre-
vail. You can hear their expression only among
certain bsoad-cloth gentry.
Notwithstanding the deuials to the contrary, it
is asserted by those who ought to know that
Gov. Hicks did use all his influence TO got Win
ter Davis into the Cabinet; aud this morning we
have it that he threatens TO call the Legislature
together if Judge Blair is appointed. 80. too,
the Virginia Convent;onists are threatening TO
carry that State out of the Union If Gov Chase
and Judge Blair are put in Dir. Lincoln's Cabi'
net. The impertinence of these people In pre-.
Stunning TO dictate to Mr.. Lincoln 10 only equaled
by the treason of JEFF Davis. ToOmbs, and
Twiggs.
The objection Of Gov. Hicks and party TO
Judge Blair, learn, is TO tho staple Of the
Judge, campaign speeches, because they squnted
strongly toward an amendment OF our State
Constitution which should base representation on
population, and undo the present peterborough
system that makes ono mans vote In Calvert
County equal to the votes Of fifty men in Balti-
more City. And for putting man into the
Cabinet who enterAins such truly democratic
sentiments, the Governor threatens to dissolve
the Union. But the Governor viii think twice

desire nothing better thar to get at the official

of It's ineciency to accomplish the object for which IL

by Capt James H. Hamilton. He was formerly an
