Szsartstrti..—olLts prominent and Worthy men whose to the Senatorship are being urged by their respective Mends,: probably . no one has a clearer title or better prospects than Hon, G. A. Grow. Able,' energetic, and honest; a faithful,vigorms pa in of Republican principles, principles, he would in the U. 8. Senate what he has been ;Iry the various positions he has occupied heretofore, a climr-headed, strong-minded man, riot afraid of work. and ever mindful of the interests of his constituency. We dol not say that some one else might not be equally able and true, but we doubt if any other man in the western section of then State. possesses so many of the traits which should character ize a member of the first legislative body of the country, as doe* the gentleman namil ed. In thus speaking, we believe we ex press the sentiments of the thinviug publicans of Mercer county, aid, indeed„ of the entire western portion of our State.! [From the Carbondale Advance.] MUTED STAMM 812IIATE- - The =term of Hon. C. B. Btuakalew as Senator will expire on the Fourth of March nett. The Legis lature being largely Republican the choice will be among the Republican candidates, The Press of the state, embracing many of the ablest organs -of the party are urging the name of How Galosh& A. Grow as the candidate to succeed Mr. Buckalew, and especially as the on of iall others test fitted and best entitled to the position. We fully coincide in that opinion. We think the Republican party can in no *ay se much honor themselves, and' co well serve the country, as by placing Hon. G. A. Grow in the Senate,- as they no* have the power to do. Mr. Grow, though yet yming, has had the long service of twelve years in Con gress, distinguished throughout by faith fulness and ability,: placing MM. in the front. rank among the • leading statesmen of the country. As a tribute, to his merit he-was made saker of the House, a : position sel dom en joyed by one so young, and so far as we now recollect, the second time the, honor was ever conferred upon a rennsyl.: vans Congressman. The only other ease within our recollection is that of Hon. F. A. Muhlenburg. The Congressional expe rience thus gained by Mr. Grow is what a Senator should have,. and will be of im mense service to him, to ..the party, and to the.country in the Senate. Mr. Grow is one of the ablest and one of 'the most pleasing speakers in the State.— Few can debate the political: questions of the day with so much force and effect and none we think can advocate a political measure with more success. [From the Montrose Republican.] A large number of papers have already expressed a preference for Hon. Galusha A. Grow. He is an able and thorough organi zer, an energetic and tireless; worker, and an inspiring leader. Hislabore more than those of any other living man contributed to swell the majority bf the "old Wilmot district" to almost ten thousand. It was the change wrought in this district that first brOke the power, of the Democratic Party in the State and has continued it a minori ty ever since. . • [From the - Colamtila County Republican.] 1 Of all the candidateli thus far named we have no hesitation - in announcing our an-. doubted preference in behalf of the Hon. Galusha A. Grow, the efficient chairman of our State Central Cloirimittee,; and through whose vigilance and untiring energy we are to much indebted far, the-brilliant victory our State secured in fthe two recent elec tions. He has served twelve years in Con gress, ending with the Speakerahip of the House. He began life and his public ca reer as a democrat but his anti-slavery con victions led him into the republican move ment. He has the high honor of being one of the few who organized the republican party at Pittsburg 56. p 356. Ever since he hue followed its, with =surpassed trueness and intelligence. Practical, stea dy, reliable, and with large experience in public affairs, he combines all the qualities requisite for a good and acceptable Senator. He has been tried and proved faithful. No stain rests upon his pnvateur public repu tation, If the claims' of lOcality are urged, it may be replied that he comes from a see tion out of which a Senator has never been taken except in the case of Wilmot, who served out an unexpired terta, and which gives as large proportional Republican ma jorities as any other portion of the State.
