_The principle is as certain

are not to be effaced in an hour, nor can the

grained in Unmoral constitutions of a slave

remember that there is quite as much of

Expensive churches iireVided with all the
luxuries that money can buy, are, called,
upon to consider whit they will do• with
their poor members/or rather how to retaini
them. The NewAirork Observer gives the
following plan and example for the, benefit
of all concerned. A large and flourishing'
Presbyterian anthorizes its treasurer
to let pewkand sittings in its spacious house
of worship to all pertsons applYing, and it
such annual rent as the applicants are able

the price agreed on is known to no one but

The iffest pressesldoorhead vigorously.
The arguments used in' his favor are strong.
The present Senator, Gen. Cameron, isfrom
the East. The Governor is from the East,
The Speaker of the Eouse will be from the
East.
As /
These are points well ken. But the
strongest remains to be/stated. General
Moorhead's record is'enviable—he is honest,
popular; 7 4 rigid protectionist--no one is
better acquainted with the history, the re
sources, the wants/bf the , State; our rail
roads, canals, public and private. institu
tions, •ur public/men. our manufacturers.
ahiPPers , merdiants; are all well known to .
him; for ten years in Congress he was found
industrioue,lready, capable, influential, and
this longexperience admirably fits him for
the All this, it must treadinitted,
makes ,t case of Moorhead a strong one.
But, ;here are other considerations—bis in
tegrity is above suspicion; no man stands
higher, in or out of his party; in public, as
in private, he has been honorable and use-
AUL ' Just in the prime of life, hia, activity is
eqeal to every demand likely . to .he made
upon it. Lilt us have a publicist for
.Senator—a man of high character, who will be
useful to the State, and respected by the
whole • country.
The Gubernatarial question will plunge
us into another excitement, we suppose, as
soon as the Senatorship is disposed of. We
shall do our share of talking when the time
comes.
['from the Bedford Inquirer.)
We think the Sixteenth District has a
man second to none in the State for eminent
ability and fitness for the position. We re
fer to Hon. Edward McPherson, of Gettys
berg. A ripe scholar distinguished for
talent and • ability, in t imately acquainted
with all the mar hinery of our Government,
having served with distinction in the lower
House, thoroughly devoted to the interests
of his native State, and intimately acquaint
ed therewith, he is pre-eininently qualified
to fill the high and responsible position of
United States Senatokwith honor to him
self and credit to his State.

,
Why cannot the Legislature for once go
outside of the usual round of applicants and
elect some man for his worth? Hon. Edwin
M.' Stanton is looked upon by the whole
country as one of, the ablest ' and foremost
Republicans in the State. If he should be
elected.it would not only be an honor to the
State but to the whole nation. With two
such able men in the Senate as Stanton and
Cameron, Pennsylvania would be a power
in the, councils of the nation. I
[Front the Crawford dorm:mt.)!
As an Executire, GOvernor Geary pos
sesses rare abilities. Wherever and when
ever he has been i called upon to act in an
executive ca t. has always discharged
.
his duties, with ft fide li ty and prudence. Dur
ing his present .4 of effice there have been
no exciting omit° to call forth any 'great
exhibition of his peculiar merits sea Gov
ernor, and some might think from that,
that he does not excel in executive ability,
but such is not the fact , -He has given the
closest attention to theduties of his office;
vetoed many bills which be considered un
just or -unnecessary, and conducted the
affairs of our State in an economical manner.
Whenever the people get hold of an able
and honest public servant it is best to hold
on to him, and:believing ;Governor Geary
to be such a one, we earnestly recommend
his re-nomination by the. Republican party
for the office of Governor of - this - Common
wealth. ...

(from the Batman's teleardeld) Journal.)
The Harrisburg State Guard declares for
the re-nomination of Governor John W.
Geary, and in so doing justly reflects the
prevailing judgment of the Republican party
in favor of a brave and faithful public ser
vant.
