II will be from the account OF the senatorial pro

was unanimously elected the place Of President OF the

msred by the accomplished democratic statesman up
on whom it has fallen who, for many years past, has
been most favorably known his counrymen as man
of high Abilities of the purity. and of personal
popularity possessed by few OF public men, whether

We observe that the of the Hon Daniel D Dckin

State of New York already occupies the first which
consideration, together with the fact of his unwilling
ness, in any case, conflict with his friend, Col King
for political station, induced him at once TO decline the
proffered honor. 1t will be remarked that COL Kings
unanimous election did, in point Of fact occur at the in
stance OF Mr.. Dickinson. Ii is with high qualification
we mention that when Col King learned that Gov

claims 10 the vacant place, he did not hesitate declare
