A DECLINING TIoKET.-Milton Say
Ter has declined the honor of being
beaten on the Butternut ticket. Mil
ton is sharp; he don't invest money in
losing concern; he won't spend two or
three hundred dollars to get to stay at
home, when he can do so without; not
by any means. Milton likes legislative
honors, but cannot see his way to them
via Villundigham Butternutisln, and
he don't desire to get capsized in trying
to cross the political Jordan. Wheth-
er Millions anti'Vallandigham feelings
had anything to do with the matter. oi
not, we don't know; but one thing W.
do kHow, he declared he would not vote
for the exile. This is tho second de
clinatiOn on the ticket, before the cleo
ton; tho remainder will decline at
o'clock p. NJ. Of the second Tuesday il

An Exploded Falsehood.

The assertion of GEORGE e. PUdH at
the late Democratic State Convention,
that propositions for peace made by
Rebels had been declined by the Nation
al Government, originated with VAL
LANDINdHAM. When Mr.. PUaH made
the statement, vouching for its truth
from personal knowledge, he must have
known that he was retailing a fabrisa-
ton, for the purpose of deception. To
prove the falsity of this stale canard, we
give in evidence the Richmond Enquirer
the official organ of JEFF. DAVIS Thai
paper, in recent article, referring tc
VALLANDIGuAM, says:
at seems that be is further guilty
of saying that at the time of the Fred
ericksburg battle, certain proposition
we're made from Richmond to recon
struct the Union, which propositions
we're rejected. We admit that this toa
untrue. Mr.. V. ought to be more care
full of his authority, but still one woul,
hardly say that in this country he de
serves a violent death for 80 inaccurat
= statement"
From the above testimony, tits clea
that PUaH lied, and did SO knowingly
In short the story is falsehoOd
manufactured out of whole cloth, an
is only specimen of the many other
that we may expect to bo retailed b
the COppcrheads during the comm
election campaign.
