JUDGE LUDLow.-The public are cautioned
90 place no reliance upon the anonymous COM
munications, pretended reports of speeches. or
alleged expressions of opinion by Judge Lud-
low, with which the partisan press now
abounds. and also to beware OF all last cards
and telegrGnS"
We clip the above advertisement from
Democratic contemporary and republish it
without charge as it tends to shake our faith
in matter which before we gave credence to.
1t casts a suspicion on the authenticity of
Judge Allison's letter. 1t is last card, and
one which cannot be contradicted, and we may
be wrong in treating it as generously as we did.
Is it genuine The warning in our Demo-
cratic neighbor looks very much as if it was
not. We now doubt it ourselves. 1t is well
for the people to accept with many grains of
allowance such publications as come from
writers in Europe which it is impossible to
contradict at once. Let Judge Ludlow stand
on his own record, and don't call in the aid
of foreign travellers to support the sinking
ship.

JUDGE SHARswooD AND SECESSION. Judge
SdrSlUOod is lifelong and conscientious believer
in the doctrine Of secession. We do not say this
for partisan purposes, but merely as fact which
would not be denied by the Judge himself. He
did not actually aid the Rebellionn or was he
traitor yet for years before the war; or the war
was thought OF by the people. he declared his
conviction that In theory and under our form
of Government a State had the right to secede.
This Is announced in his Commentaries on
Blackstone again and again, as every student
of that work can testify. Those who vote for
him vote for one who is an original secessionist,
and who was so consistently, and we believe is
so still. Can any loyal man place In power one
who held this doctrine? Can any soldier who
has fought for the maintenance of the Union
vote for one who held and holds that in so doing
he crushed by mere force what was legal right?

A CLAIM TO BE SHERIFF,-Mr. Peter Lyle pos
sesses two qualities in a marked degree, and
these are an immense amount of arroganceand
very bad temper. He has no courtesy, and is
evidently so passlonatea as 20 be utterly untitled
for the important duties of Sheriff. How this
modest and courteous gentleman thinks of
himself, and speaks of the Republican voters of
Philadelphia, we will let him show for himself
His speech to the Convention which nominated
him contains the following paragraph
"Let us canvass our precincts, and stop this
colonization. If we stop this cheating, the lowest
man on our ticket will be elected by from 5000
to 5000 majority. We tOeTe not beaten last gear.

title him 20 office at the hands Of the Phila-
delphia public.
While we have no fear that a single
Republican viii ''soratch" the name of Mr..
Batturs and substitute the name Of Mr..
Megary, we can confidently appeal to every
proper-minded citizen, whatever may have
been his past political affiliations, to vote for
Mr.. Batturs, who is so well known as being in
all respects an eminently proper man to elect
to the Office of Clerk of the Orphans Court.

Letter from Loudoun County.

Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette
LEEsBURa, Va, Nov, %, lS67.--The sale
of P. T.. Lofts real estate was made to-day.
The lots adjoining town on the east, and very
near the railroad, were sold IS follows About
81 acres, running down TO the railroad boun-
dary and connecting with its condemned ground
at grades brought SIS per acre; another OF
about acres, with house and we'll OF water,
SIP; another Of about acres adjoining the
second one, $5O25; and two ten acre lots, ad-
Joining the.two last named, $50 7janl SCI, re-
spectively. There is fine limestone quarry
on the first mentioned lot, and l suppose 1t to
be the intention OF the purchasers to make
lime which acts with admirable effect on the
lands in this neigbborhood, The land had no
fence around it. You will remember it as the
old muster field, where our old time militia
colonies used to drill the boys at general mus
ter; it lies between the turnpike and the rail
road. Some other lots were sold, one south Of
the railroad, to the widow, and one one north OF
the town branch to Richard Bailey, an old res,
ident negro, freed before the war. i.--
The old Fadclcy house and stable were sold
to John Senate for ST 900; the house occupied
by w. II. Thomas, stove and tin ware mer-
chant, was sold to him for $l,G77; and the
former shoe shop of Lott, opposite the court
house, to Henry Sillman, for $3.50. The Fade
ley house and Silman purchase are considered
very cheap, and the others as fair sales.
