greater abundance here than they are to be found

PENNSYLVANIA SENATORIAL ELEcTIoN.-The re-
suit of the recent election in Pennsylvania for an
United States Senator, seems to have astonlshed
all parties. In the choice OF Simon Cameron, all
the political factions OF that State have been demo-
lished, and the seat vacated by Mr. Buchanan will
be occupied till lS49, by an independent democrat
one who will go for the interests Of Pennsylvania
without any reference to the wishes OF the different
cliques. BY his superior generalship he was chosen
by the wings, democrats and natives We know
General Cameron very well, and look upon his
election to the Senate as capital one, for he is a
shrewd, sensible man. He is in favor Of Polk, but
will probably go for the tariff OF 1912
