VNITED STATES SEMATOR.
* Now recent election has passed off so
gloriously for the. Democratic j>arty, and lias
given us such a decided preponderance.in the
Legislature, U bQcomesJnecessary for \he press Id
declarej,its .sentiments on the subject of thomexl
United Slates Senator; A number of good men
and true have been spoken of for that office—a
situation of vast, responsibility and power, when
backed hy such a constituency us llie groat. State
of Pennsylvania.
We have no personal preferences, and the only
considerations that should guide the Democratic
parly In the selection it U. to.make,-are capacity
and fitness for the. station., it Is a station that
should-ho filled hy talents of the most elevated
character, and the Democratic party should be
moroover.represenlcd on the. floor of the Senate by
those who have a .sound, orthodox, national Dei
moctacy. We arc heartily tired of seels and sec-,
tartans in politics, of sectional agitation* and, of
those who have but one idea, and that suited to
hut one locality. .VVe- should, look upon all see
tinns ofour counlry as one great whole, and upon
the people of all.sections as our brethern.
, In casting our eyes around the State we can
see no one more suited .by nature, stern mental
culture,'and sound Democratic principles, to fill
the situation of Senator from Pennsylvania, than
Lite Mun. Jeremiah S. TJlack of Somerset county.
To a highly legal mind, he unites the philosophic,
cal acumen, analytical power, and search after
first causes and fundamental principles, which
wore the leading characteristics of the immortal
Jetlerson. His conclusions ate unerring, and his
courage and boldness \j|ili al ways enable him to
carry out in full force his convictions of right and
duly. Me is no “palterer in a‘double, sense,” but
with a straight-forward purpose and earnest heart,
his influence would soon bo powerfully fell in the
councils of the.nation." .Wo want such .a man in
lho*Senate of the United States. VVe want a
true man and an able one. VVe wanl no political
trimmer, who is courting this influence adverse to
the interests of the Democratic party, or that fac
tion whoso whole existence is at war with the
interests of ull parties and the country at large;
but we, as Pennsylvanians, want a brave, good
man, who has the segacity to. detect political in
trigue and the nerve to sound the alarm, and pun
ish it, no matter what may be the form it will
I assume nor w ho may be Us friends.
. VVe have nothing to say .against such men os
Woodward of Luzerne, Poster of Westmoreland,
or bPOandlish of Allegheny. They are all good
men and true, an honor to the Democratic party
and the State, and should cither of them be selec
ted by the Democratic caucus, wo would he en
tirely satlbfled. VVe merely express our pre
ference and give our reasons for so doing.—
VVe believe it would be subserving the in
terests of the Democratic party of Pennsyl
vania to elect Judge Dlack Senator, more than
by selecting any other man. . Wo ore therefore
decidedly in his favor, and wo hopo and believe
that llie Democratic members elect from this coun*
ty and Senatorial district will use their influence
in his favor. Wo may refer to this subject again.

It is no strange matter Chat Col. Snowden, has

FROM THE SOUTHERN MINES.
We learn from the Southern mines that those
miners at w/)rk in the Gulches are doing little fur
want of water, while those on the rivers have 100
muoh water. On the Stanislaus but little gold
lias been taken from the canals... The prospects
at f'lne Bar, Don Pedro and other joints on the
Tuolumne, were spoken of in the most encoura
ging lerms'. At the Nashville diggings, a great
many persons arc meeting, and are having great
lurk 5. the average product per man being from
eight to ten dollars pef day; but few working
more than half the lime, owing to the intense
heat.
There is a reptyt that a, new' placer has been
