Uni.sa States Senator.

The Legislatures OF Pennsylvania, In.
diana, Missouri and California failed to elee,
United States Senators at their last sss.
sions--referring the matter to their sue
esssors. Whatever may be the Intrinsic
worth Of the causcs which have prodnce ed
such failures. 1t strikes us that they are be.
eoming entirely too common. The public
good 10 too much lost sight OF, and an Office
which In some respecis is more important
and honorable than any in the country, is
thesoccason of more intrigue and partisan
warfare than any other. In fair competi.
ton among competent men for station so
elevated, there is nothing objectionable:
though it would. perhaps. argue healthier
state ofihe body polite. If we saw more Of
such ofices seeking the proper persons 10
hll them. than Of such assiduous striving
after the Office. Bu, when ,he SAnatorship
is claimed and sought to be won as a reward
for partisan Service, like place in the
post-ofiice CT the customs, the fac, is any
thing but one Of good augury. All this
may seem very srite and common. place
We know it is so, and We would be better
pleased ii it we're uncommon and created
surprise. The fac, that the reeea,ed fail.
Hres Of Legislatures to perform their duty of
eiecting Senators, creates no alarm and
scarcely any regret among the people, is
one OF the worst features OF the case. One
State has as much right as another to post
pore or neglect the duty. I, Is .upposable
that So many States might refuse to elect
a. to leave the Senate without quorum.
Such an event would bring the evil to a
crisis. and nigh, be the means of providing
aremedy. Blu, the evil which We are com.
planning of. differs only in degree, and
should be killed in the bud.

..sam !,

II is currently reported that the President
Of the Anti Know Nothing Meeting held in
Davenport the other day, was yeritablc
follower of .Sam" himself, and that the
meeting was afraid To get up any resolu-
tons lest "Sam" shouldalso make his mark
therein az he did recently on a similar &C.
casioa, at Syracuse, N. Y. Such was the
futiity Of the meeting, in fact, that it has
ended in the starting of an Anti.know No
thing paper in Davenport, which nobody
dares become responsible for--at least,
no name is given for either editor or pub
Usher. II must he got up BY the Sag
