CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR.

Several papers in this State are bring
ing out candidates for Governor. This is
a matter that should be managed with a
good deal of discretion Our candidate
for Governor, to succeed, must be man
against whom no serious objection can be
urged. We notice that several papers in
south eastern Ohio are urging Hon. v.
B. Horton Of Pomeroy. We believe that
Mr.. Horton is an excellent man in
many respects, but we have vague rec
ollection that when he was in Congress-
during, or Immediately after the rebel
lion, he cast some votes that cannot be
defended. If we are not mistaken in
this, Mr.. Horton ought not to be can
didate. Hon. VIM. Dennison has been
named, but we understand that he de-
clines. We regret this, as no better or
more suitable or popular man can be
found in the State.
Let us all act with caution and sound
discretion in this matter
