Hon. a. G. OLMsrED, the nominee
for Assembly, has served the district two
years with creditto himselfand the county.
In the last session Of the Legislature he
was considered one Of the ablest members
Of the House. At the beginning of the
session he was quite a prominent candi.
date for the Speakership, but resigned
his claims 10 favor of an older man who
came from a district which has not been
represented in the Chair for some years.
A gentleman writing from Harrisburg,
says : I'm the absence of the regular
Speaker, Hon. A. G.. Olmsted presided,
and his decision, and 6rmness, and prompt,
ness were SO manifest as to extort the ad-
miration Of all. Had he labored for the
position he quite probably would have
won it, and would have been an able and
popular officer" Such is the commend
alton of persons living in distant parts of
the State
Capt. ARCH z. JONES, of Coudersport,
the nominee for County Treasurer, has
Just been discharged from the United
States service for physical disability, oc
casloned by wouods received in the mem.
orable battle of Gettysburg. He has
served the country faithfully and honor
ably-has refused promotion for the sake
of beueftting the noble men who went
10 the company from this county three
years ago, and We have never heard the
slightest expression of dissatisfaction
from any of his men who have returned
as to his character as brave officer and
an honorable man. The Union party
have done themselves an honor at this
time in a peculiar degree by their sup
port. He was oncenomipated for Sheriff
and by reason of sectional quarrel was
defeated This is all done away with
now, we are united as far as laying aside
by-gone issues are concerned and we have
no doubt, from what We have heard from
different sections, but that Capt. Jones
will receive the unanimous vote OF the
Union men of the county. That he will
make capable, efficient, honest and
obIiging officer no one who is the least
acquainted with him will dispute.
+. o. AUSTIN, of Sylvania, the nom
lnee for County Commissioner, the people
are well acquainted with-a man ofgood
Judgment, intelligent and worthy, he is
well fitted to perform all the arduous du-
ties of a Commissioner. That it is a
responsible position is certain, and that
he will make responsible officer is
equally certain. Living in the southern
section Of the county, where they have
not had for some years an officer in that
position it is no no than fair as an ex-
preston of good feeling towards The Union

PEACE Observation-Disclosures
all that is said about peace In certain
journals, the prospect does not look very
promising for an early suspension of hos
tilities. The peace men in the north
want peace and restoration of the Union.
Their friends in the South want it aud a
separation of the Union As these two
wants are Incompatible with each other
in the form which they are presented it is
evident that there will be no peace from
either of these quarters. The public must
fall back again upon Grant and Sherman,
and if these two peacemakers are prop,
erly and patriotically supported, their en-,
deaVors will end in lasting peace much
sooner than we can hope from the efforts
of the pidling politicions who wish to con.
troll events entirely too big for their
mastery

DEMOCRATIC HONESTY, in advocating
PEACE, is illustrated by the fact, that while
it was supposed the rebais were masters OF
the situation, not single copperhead IN
the free States talked Of peace but as
soon as it began to be demonstrated that
the rebellion would be conquered, then the
allies of the slaveholdere' rebellion, the
Democratic leaders. began to cry for peace
The peace movement may be regarded as
the last act in the drama of treason, and
:he peace party as the reserve corps Of
traitors

Ir Is A FACT worthy of ventilation,

accepts a nomination for a high Office

nothing to recommend him to the masses
