The Electlon Of Senator,


1t would not be proper for US to permit
out making word Of reference to the
scenes attendant upon the canvass The
Democratic leaders have Ilayed many des.
peratc and unscrupulous ventures, but none
can exceed the last. Ii seems that there
was an Indication on the part OF many man
bers OF their party to he select in their choice
OF u canddate for the oil 50 of Senator. -
Many OF the candidates were obnoxious to
them by reason Of their extreme devotion to
the South, and AS loyal m,n they could not
support their election This difference of
opinion came to the ears Of the Dam ,cratic
state Central COMMITTEES, aud, as NJ.
Hughes had some hopes Of being nomina
ted himself, he took energetic and prompt
means to prevent thu threatened detection
Trains were chartered, ticket, sold at u nom
inal rate, aud largo bodies OF men taken to
Harrisburg. There they roamel around
the town, slept on chairs AMI benches, and
gave their time 10 dissipation and revelry.
They threatened and swJre and terrified
peaceable men. Mr.. II .niall, our next
Representative from tho First district, ha.
rangued them at midnight assembly in
words that can only be construed as an in.
vltation to violence, wEile others, not quite
as bold as Mr.. Randall. were far more ma
lignant aud bitter The result was, that
the House and Senate met surrounded by u
mob, and legisIated under the knives and
pistols Of lawless men.
This is the plain story about the election
IN Harrisburg yesterday. The ciruum stan
ces surrounding. thaCact Of high aud solemn
legislation are shameful We 500 men in
the interest Of party not only deIying the
law, but deliberately contemplating the
eommiss'on of violence and, perhaps, mur.
der. These are the same men who, u few
months ago, were Sd generous in their party
discipline. MIR. Randall and his friend,
distinguished themselves in 1869 by opuos-
Ing the regular nomination OF the Delnocra
cy, and were bold and open schi.matics.
When the ruin Of the Democratic party
served the cause OF the South and Slavery
they assisted In .-its ruin. Now, when its
success Is desired By treason and slavery,
they assist 10 restoring it, and make death
the penalty of refusal to obey the man
dates ofits caucus. We are anxious to
know when such men rs Mr.. Randall and
his Harrisburg friends became so earnestly
attached 10 patty sentiment Q, and whether
they remember how they made them selves
conspicuous by their advocacy of minority
candidate against Mr.. Douglas. Asit is, we
have q right to suspect their loyalty to the
party which. before, they abused, but which
now they sustain by appealing to the worst
passions OF our nature VII
