THE NEXT GOVERNOR.


II is certainly an early hour to com
mence the approaching campaigni but the
adherents of the present executive have all
the weight of offices to facilitate their plans;
and those who seek only the public good
should probably, by an early dehfonstra-
ton of union and concert, counteract the
schemes of the opposition. The following
gentlemen have been named by different
papers for the consideration Of Delegates to
the Democratic 4th of March convention.
Henry n. Afuhlenberg, of Berks,
Ellis Letcis, of Lycoming;
Luther Reilly, of Dauphin;
J. b. .AnthOny, of Lycoming;
isaac Senker, of Union;
DuUid r, Porter, of Hunhngdoh,
LeaOiS DeWart, of Northumberland;
Daniel Sturgeon, of Fayette;
Francis r. Shen&, of Dauphin;
Charles J. hagerSoH, of Philadelphia;
Wilidna ". Potter, of Centre;
John Klingensmith, Of Westmoreland;
Ja7neS Buchanan, of Lancastsr.
The last named gentleman has declined
being considered in the field; yet the list
above presents an array Of talent and polit-
ical integrity from which we cannot be
mistaken in selecting a candidate. Either
of the persons named are pre-eminently
qualified for the high duties which must
devolve upon the executive officer in the ap-
preaching term; and either, if fairly nomi-
mated, must secure the confidence and sup
port of the Democratic party. Let the
candidate be chosen without regard to geo.
graphical distinction-let his capacity and
patriotism be his passport, and union and
harmony oar watchword; and our hopes
will be fully realized. We wish the Exec
utive chair honored by an incumbent who
will not aim at securing the negative praise
of not having done much wrong; but by one
who will fearlessly and faithfully perform
his duties, and be alone content in knowing
that he has accomplished much good. We,
however, for the present, can only join our
contemporaries in the annunciation of names;
and for the sake of instilling that harmonic
Gus feeling and action which must eventu-
ate in triumph to our candidate and our
principles, we would suggest extreme mod
Grafton in expressing preferences by analo-
gy' Recrimination can produce no bene-
fetal result; while lenient discussion, and a
determination to submit to the expressed
will OF the majority, must be crowned with
all the certain prerequisites to glorious
victory. These hints are thrown out with
general allusion, and we hope they may
govern the actions of those who have indi-
liyidual preferences. We have none.

In our last number, for the Information OF

ing specie payments, we gave publicity to
the following article:
RAG CIRCULAToN,
Agreeably to the statement of the several
Banks efsPehnsylvania made to the Audi
Tor General in December last, on oath, the
disparity between the circulation of notes
and the amount of specie in their vaults,
was the leading cause of the present hard
times. For instance, the Bank Of the uni
ted States had S32, 1889 ,246 of notes in cir
cnlation, and only $3,424,76 of specie
nearly $40 OF notes to 81 of specie, The
situation of most of the banks was nearly
as critical; and for example we will COPY
the statements made by the Banks in our
own neighbourhood.
