myself Us u candidate for your sufTfages, 10
fill the vacancy occhsioned In our Senate
rial Representation, by the resignation 0f
DIR. Scott. Uneharitabl dc persons, were
quite too ready to assign 10 ne unworthy
motives for this step and forced me In a
late card to give a fiat denial to their i'm.
putations, and this vas sufficient b meet

who we're prominent as public men; and
solicited them to step forward, and ii view
Of their superior claims md fitness for the

some Of the most estinable and respect.
