ar. Morgan. the perpetual Office hunter, and
|selfaecredited msdel 4eaoerst, has again run
I'D upon his ono idea Of discriminating The friend
Of the "Ram's llorn," Gen. Jones. In his 10
sue Of the 9th, he admonishes the people to se
lect 4 man for the U. 8 Senate, of "eHiHsnt
talents, long tried political integrity, dignity q
department., and solid ekavac:er, and not one
Of smonkey skines,'' before the Senate Of these
United States" This, translated % as to be
understood by the unintiated, means, we sup.
Pose, "Select nae, or nay friend.
In the winner Of 1882, when Morgan was an
unsuccessful candidate for the Senate, it was
precious little intelligence that adorned our Lee
g,slature, in his estimation, and we suppose Il
this iu.strisus genius should be again disop-
pointed in the stake he is playing for, our friends
who constitute the democratic portion Of the
Legislature, will have 10 look out far some hea'
" slugs from that potent battery, the Telegraph
In his issue Of the following day, (the loth)
he writes a much longer article, upon the pre-
tended oppos,tio. of Jones. to Campbell, Of III /,
and takes occasion to say:
"The latest news from the Galena Distric:
confirms the rumored defeat of the Hon. Thomr-
son Campbell We have already expressed our
regret in view Of this contingency re~ret
which prevails widely among our citizens, who
have long since realized the fact that we are IN
dcbted to MIR Campbell for material services,
among which may be enumerated the defeat o.
the Rams Horn, and the making Of BurIing'
ton port Of entry, to say nothing oil the promr
nent and efficient part which he took in procu'
ring an appropriation for the Rapids.
The idea that Jones opposed Campbell's cleo
ton, is all moen.sAine He might have been
opposed to his nomination, for aught we know,
and we should not think him much Of man if
he was not, for the course Of Campbell towards
our State, has been perfectly selfish and local.
that We know Of no men in this vicinity, who
were not unfriendly to his nomination; but that
he ever uttered word, after his nomination,
which could initiate against his election, in the
slightest degree, we believe to be wholly and
entirely grouncless.
But, diverging from this TO another point
Has not Mr.. Morgan, in the above extract, u".
scitsi.gly stult6ed position, which he has
heretofore uniformly and tenasiously adhered to:
His language has always been, that he was not
opposed to the Rams Horn. But now, it ap.
pears, that one ofthe leading causes tor extend
Ing to Mr. Campbell, in his retirement, the warm
sympathies and coincidence of the people Of Bu..
linpton, was his inveterate and uniform hostili.
" to the "Ram's Horn" For this, Mr.. Camp
bell has forever endeared himself to the conf
dence and alteration of his Burlington constitu.
ency Comment upon this, among the many
Inconsistencies Of Morgan, is unnecessary. We
leave it for those tho know him more intimately
to perform this task.
We do not desire, nor do we intend, to use
the columns ofour journal. for bolstering up any
man for the Senate. We neither consider It
appropriate or proper that we should do so. We
have every confidence that the men selected for
the General Assembly, will make such choice
for the Senate, as they believe will be most ad-
vantageous to the interests of the State, snd
satisfactory to the people; and any suggestions
from the press, they have just right to regard
Is both insulting to their dignity and intelligence
1t Is question which the press has nothing to
do with. The members Of the General Assem-
bly,, are much better mirrors for rejecting the
public sentiment of the State, than the press;
and we hesitate not to assert, thst they should
treat all 6uxeome Of this kind, let it come from
what quarter It may, with perfect indifference.
We do not presume that any particular consid-
Grafton will be given to what may emanate from
political nextrals, who have their political ends
to accomplish, and whose easy going neutrality
It would seem, is no protection to the public
eainst their officiocs interference in matters
which do not concern them, and which honora
BILE men would be bound by their obligations to
the public, to say nothing about.
The two sneutrais of this State, have stimuli
taneousy commenced an attack upon Senator
Jones'. 1t is sufficient to say, that the editors
Of these Journals are partizans Of Judge Clark.
We take no ground in our paper, in favor Of one,
or another, believing. as we remarked before,
that it is improper to do 80; and our only ex-
cuse for having noticed the subject at all, at this
time, is to correct an error into which the Gale.
ma Jeffersonian strayed, which, if allowed to
pass unnoticed, might seriously initiate against
the reputation Of one, whom we believe to be
an honorable nan and faithful representative.
