MONDAY, . DECEMBER 11, 1866
TUE sEsArotitsaiP.
We are fully of the opinion, that Mr.
Cowes's successor hi the Senatorehip ought
to be takes - from the west. It is manifest
lie will not be. Mr. Wrizieits is the only
man In this section who has been , promi
nently spoken of in connection:with the
succeision; but, though backed by a nuni
ber of earnest and influential friends, vio
enthasissartas been enkindled in its be
half. Confessedly of superior intellectual
ability and training, and of sterling hon
esty, be excites admiration rather than
friendship. We do not hear of even one
member of the agialatnre who is serious
ly inclined to support hire.
Mr. ST.CVEISB is a Magnetic character—a
born leader—and if he was lounger and
less infirm, would distance all his cogipeti•
tors. Incapacity to dealwithideas e he dots
not surpass Mr. WlLLrens, but, 111 greatly
superior to him in that prime qualification
of statesmanship, the ability to manage
men and affairs. He has a feti, members
instructed for him, but is not likely to be
come formidable.
Col. Fon:rzy has grerit ability, combla.--
ed with great energy. lie excites enthu
- thusiasm, yet fails to bind men to him in
such a manner as to attach themselves to
his fortunes.
Onow can command alew votes.
Of only average ability, be is pre-eminent
ly true and trustworthy and esperis.nced.
Thadtepnblican majority in. the Legisla
ture is so large that if the members spec
hilly devoted to the gentlemen already
named were to unite on either of them; or
on anew man, they would fail to hold the
balapte of power. The contest, therefore,
narrows down to a choice between General
' CAUEnoir and Governor Ccricrix.. One or
the other of these men,-it Seems to us, will
be the Senator; which We do not und.rtake
- to say." Each of them has been tried, and
under circumstances , to test his peculiar
qualities. Each has warm friends and bit
ter enemies. EClther of them is perfect.
In point of purereason—in the faculty of
• dealing with ideas-4ach of them has
. many superiors. In the lower of dealing
- with men and matters each has demonstra
ted, iniiifferent ways, the_ possession of
unusual gilts, Governor Ceram has great
popularity with the masses of the loyal
people of this Commonwealth. This was
attested during the recant canvass by the
receptions accorded hint at all the mass
meetings he attended. Accustomed as we
have been, (o'i a quarter of a cm.
tury, to popular assemblies in Petnl.
sylvanut, we can truly say we have
aeon no enthusiasm approaching. that
• which his presence universally - 'awakens;
buf-antside the. State, his popularity is,
greater than inilde: General Came-
ROB, on the contrary, has a power ftd hold
on numerous sections of leading and influ
'entinl men:: ' These are Intensely devoted
to him, and always ready for 'any amount
of exertion or , sacrifices to promote his ele
vation.
The friends of Gov. CCUTIIC claim for
Lim a clear majority of all the members.
We &knot judge so. It seems to us that
while;the adherents of Wrutems,l3Tavnets,
FVNES and GROW have . not a balance: of
power between the two main contestants,
they could by nutting 14 a body, with
either of the:orn the scale in his favor.
This they ar of likely to do. After the
tbst or second ballot, it seems probable
they will divide, perhaps in unequal pro
portions, on CAmunos and Comes, and
it is this contingency that Imparts anima-.
lion to canvass. .
In Allegheny county popular sentiment
is greatly divided between CAMERON and
CURTIN. The cause of each :warmly
espoused and opposed. Hence, the dele
gation is divided, and likely to remain so.
According to the latest reliable reports a
majority of them are for CASIEIIO6.
EDITORIAL BREVITIES-.
A 3LEETING of the leading citizens of the
peninsular counties of Virginia, Was held

To meet. the wants of the great number of
persons who desire to possum, a piano, hut do
not feel able to go to the expense of the coetli
cot make, and yet would 1ia4 . 8 only a good,
substantial one, we have made a most careful
examination of all the lowest priced pianos
made in the United Stater. The result of thle.
examination is that we have found those
made by W. P. Emerson, to be the best pletnoe
for the price, and the cheapest 'good planes
that are made. They axe meet substantially
built, on thegsoundest acoustic principals; the
wood le the beet quality properly seasoned;
the tone rich and powetful,and the touch easy
'and elastic; cacti one Is provided with the the
full trop • frame, and overstrung bass. They
stand well in tune and wear welt to every par- ,
nation this we know from actual experience. I
The difference in price between the Emerson I
Plano, and the more costly makes, is canoed
by the most ngid economy in the manatee
tuns consistent with excellence, and
by a ßaving of labor on thee° parts,
which - neither effect the tone or ddrability.
Wo do not pretend that the "Itmerecinii is the
lowest priced piano made; many can be bought
at a less price. Sooh planes we do not keep,
having found by our own and others-expert.
enco that being so poorly made they soon give
way, lose their tone, become harsh and dis
cordant, and give no satb-faction to the owner,
-but are a constant source of expense and an- ,
noyance. A piano of this kind Is a bad in- ,
vestment. and really the dearest piano any
one .can buy. We do not and will not keep
them for sale. Find [matte "Emerson" such a
desirable piano, we at once secured the excite.
11.0 agency for them for Pittsburgh and sure
rounding country, and having made special
contracta for s regular weekly supply for a
long time to come, wS can offer them at un
usually advantageous rates. All persons de
siting the best cheap piano in • the market,
should not fail to examine the "Emerson , ' be

On -Saturday morning officer SeOtt, of 'the
Mayor's police, arrested a mast named J. M.
Bretz on a charge of larceny preferred by T.
W. Davis, Esc..of the firm Of Wormiserr, My
ers & Co. The Information represents that
the accused, some time during the past month,
stole and carried away from the premises of
the firm mentioned one hundred and seventy
six pounds of pig lead, worth about 1118.51 It
appears that the ere which destroyed the oil
refinery of Messrs, Wormsey, Myers ► Co., of
the nth of August last, malted the sheet lead
with which the tanks were lined. This melt-
ed lead watt subsequently gatbered,nipi and re
melted, being run Into pigs, or rather thick
square plates, which wore plied under one of
the sheds on the,premises. During the last
month these anuses of lead were missed, and
no trace of them was discovered. A few days
since a teamster, who was doing some hauling
for the company, heard the larceny of the lead
mentioned and stated that he bad recently
healed some lead of that description to the
premises of Messrs.- Cooper, Kaye it Co. Mr.
DAVID visited these gentlemen and obtained a
view ofthe lead they had purchased; which he
fully Identified as that stolen. He ascertained
that they hail purchased the lead from Me,
Samuel Lowenthal Ist the Ninth ward. Wait
ing on Mr. Lowenthal, Mr. Davie ascertained

A most awliward and mortifying mistake
occurred in our . lotus ,o 1 Saturday morning
respecting the testimonial presented to - Ab.
died M'Clure., Esq.,tne retiring Uecortier. : At
a late hour at night we prepared a correct re
,poft of the proceedings on the oceasitin, and
sent it to the composing room, and /were in
!formed that a full report of the meeting had
already been sent in. and was in typo. Sup
posing that the report had been prepared by
one of the officers of the meeting, we palti.no
further atlas-Gen to the mutter, and it was
not until next morning that. we discovered, to
our chagrin, the Joke that had been perpetra
ted. in justice to the gentlemen concerned,
'we will uow state that the presentation was
made at the office of Messrs. Moffat A Cochran.
The meeting was organized, by calling Meijer
A. M. Brown to, the chair, and appointing
Scott Pergnson, Esq., Secretary. George IL
Cochran, E.g.. mole tie presentation, accom
panying It by one of his usually happy
speeches, and John Pt SAlntundson. EVI., res

scription: °Presented to Abate' APClure, Re
