{ Nlw L. 5. SENATOE-There was, as
usual, a large crowd-perhaps, larger than
usual-to witness the election, at noon,
this day Speaker Lawrence, Of the Sen

his seat, and voted as his previous party

Vim ID. Kelley, of fhIlad. l-G6
Lapor,c of bradford, who voted for kel-
ley, would have voted for Cameron, If 1t
would have elected him. But one maj pr-
ity for BuckaIew is as good as dozen. 1t
gives him, If spared and the Union pre-.

This election is an impressive lesson to

Ii Gen. Cameron has many warm personal

deemed most worthy and needy are read
of, to bear the wallings of those not pre-
