THE NEXT UNITED STATES sENA
TOR.

The joint Republican caucus of the mem
bers of the House and Senate, met on We'd
nesday afternoon in Committee Room No. 8,
for the purpose Of nominating candidates for
United States Senator and State Treasurer.
The Hon. John Scott, of Huntingdon county,
was unanimously nominated to be the sue
cessor of Mr. Buckalew in the United States
Senate from Pennsylvania, Hon G. A Grow
and Hon. J. Il. Moorhead having withdrawn
from the contest r. w. Mackey, Esq, of
Pittsburg, was nominated for State Trea-
surer.
The Harrisburg Telegraph in speaking of
Mr.. Scott as the next U. S. Senator, says;
"John Scott is known as one of the ablest
/ men in the State of Pennsylvania, and recog-
nized as staunch Republican. He repre-
sented his Legislative district In the House
during the session of 1861, to which position
he was elected without an opposing candi-
/ date, and took an active part in the proceed
/ ings of that body during that important ses-
sion. The war of the rebellion had just been
| inaugurated, and John Scott, although pre-
/ viously Jetfersonian Democrat, threw off
the shackles of party, and avowed himself
an outspoken supporter of the Administra.
/ ticn of Abraham Lincoln, and oil his war
measures. He was the acknowledged leader
in the House during that session, and 1t was
greatly regretted that he could not be in
duced to serve the next year in the Legisla-
ture.
AFTER his retirement from the halls of tho
Legislature, lie took an active part in the
political affairs of his district and during the
memorable campaign of 1864 battled man
! fully for the re election of Abraham Lincoln.
In 1866, when many of our Republican friends
hesi.ated to Genounce the course of the trai-
tor Andrew johnson, John Scott was one of
the FIRST who urged the Republicans to stand
steadfast by their country, assuring them that
the course of d traitorous President would be
condemned by the people, and that they
would hurl him FROM power at the first oppor.
tunity which would present itself. Ii John
Scott had been occupying Mr.. Buckalew s
! place, he would have voted with Gen. Cam
cron for his impeachmcnt
"Mr. Scott was born in the town of Alex.
andria, Huntingdon county, and learned the
trade which his father was then carrying on
tina. of tanner. He is now in the forty.
sixth year of his age. His leisure hours were
devoted to study, and Mr. Scott succeeded
finally in gaining an admittance into law
school at Chambersburg. He graduated at
that school with the highest honors, and
then returned to Huntingdon a self. made
man of the highest order. Although poor
tanner boy, his talents were soon recognized
and he stands to-day as one Of the best at
torneys in the State.
"Mr. Scott will bo q worthy companion Of
our present honored Senator, General Cam.
eron, and as Pennsylvanians we congratulate
the Republicans, not only of this State but
of the United States on the happy selection
that has been made in the election of Mr.
Scott. The Keystone State will 6e truly
represented in the National councils, and
her power will be properly acknowledged by
the Republicans of other States.

THE winter weather has not stopped the
work upon the Union Pacific Railroad,
whose advance during the winter months
will be constant although, of course, less
rapid than in the better working days of
summer and fall. So much will be done,
however, that the spring of 1869 will see the
closing OF the intervening distance between
the Union Pacific aud the Central, or Cali.
fornia division. Meanwhile, the company
gives ample security to government that the
road will be thoroughly built and equipped
in accordance with the law. The President
has the continued issue of government bonds
upon the road as finished, the recent special
examining commission having borne deci.
dcd testimony to the good character of the
work. The first mortgage bonds of the
Union Pacific Railroad are for sale by De
Haven & Bro, Philadelphia, at par, and
accrued interest. New illustrated pamphlet
furnished by them free of charge.
