Texas enc the Q. S. senate.

Representatives. The important
duty Of eleciing a United States
Senator devolves on this Lggisla-
iure, and as a democratic Senator
viii be elected Tue election excites
unusual interest throughout the
entire county. The prominent
candidates are Governor Coke,
Congressman Hancock, and Judge
ireland. The election Of Hancock
will give The most general satisfac-
ton, ard will most surely promote
the interests Of the national dem
oCnltiC party in the Presidential
campaign. He is an able aud In
cOrruptible statesman, and his fol-
lowing manly letter, decliniBE to
abandon his post Of duty at WASH
ington for the purpose of going to
Anstin and eEectioueeriBg in per.
son for a seat in the u 8. Senate, |
is not only the best evidence of
his exalted ideas Of representative
dnty and responsibility, but a
scatbing rehaks to those officials |
who consider their own advance
ment paramount to their duty to
their constituents. The name of
H"moek is indissolubly associated
witIE whnt is noblest and purest in
the civil nS5 military annals of
American history, and we hope,
for the honor If Texas and Of the
democrntic party, that it will SOON
figure on the roll of Senators of
the United States.

the election for United States
Senator for Texas shall be held

their personal presence aud posi- ,
ton, each to secure his election, l
aud, that / alone being absent,
