HARRABURG, PA
Thursday Atterlloolll, March 14, 1861
HON. DAVID WILMOT.
We have the proud satisfaction to-day
to announce the election of the Hon.
DAVID WILMOT as United States Sena
tor, to supply the vacancy occasioned by
resignation of Gen'l. CAMERON. Mr.
WILMOT left the Democratic party when
it was in the height of its glory and pow
erful in patronage, for the purpose of as
serting the principles which he considered
just and right and essential for the pro
motion of the welfare of Penrigylvania.
When he left that powerful Democratic
party he represented the strongest Demo
cratic Congressional district in this State;
and through his personal efforts it has
now become the Gibralter of Republi
canism. He has ever since been sorely
peueented by the pro-slavery party, who
have used all dishonorable means to de
tract from his personal character and in
fluence, and in the present canvass he was
made the target for their weapons. We
are therefore rejoiced, not only that
DAVID WILMOT is elected a United States
Senator, but also that the claims of the
noble North have been duly recognized in
his election.
The vote in caucus was a noble vindica
tion of Republican principles. On the joint
ballot he received seventy-six voles,
whilst Mr KETCHAM received thirteen,
and JArdzs H. CAMPBELL eight. Mr.
KETCHAM has many warm friends in the
Legislature, and was only persuaded, at
their earnest solicitation, to permit his
name to be used as a candidate. The
nomination was, however, generally con
ceded as due to Mr. W., and hence the
result. After the ballot had been taken
in caucus Mr. KETCHAM remarked that
he congratulated the Legislature on the
choice that had" been made by his fellow
members.` It was a proper recognition of
worth and merit, and he would therefore
move that the Hon. DAVID WILMOT be
the unanimous nominee of the party.—
This motion was received with loud ap
plause by the members. Mr. SMITU, of
Philadelphia, who had been a warm per
sonal friend of Mr. KEroEtsm, seconded
the resolution, and it was adopted with
deafening applause.
The lope of our friends of the Patriot
and Union, who expressed the earnest
desire that the Republicans would elect a
thorough Pennsylvanian, is now fully re.
ahead. DAVID WILMOT I , in conjunction
with EDGAR A. COWAH; will represent
the State properly, and we shall have no
fear of being disgraced on the floor, of the
Senate, as we were when Gno. M. DAL
LAS and WILLIAM BIGLER were our Re
presentatives. We are satisfied that - Gen.
CAMERON desired no more acceptable
successor than he will have in the person
of DAVID WILMOT, and his friends are
equally satisfied.. The names of Messrs.
ARMSTRONG, WILLIAMS, STEVENS, Gen,
MILES, CALVIN, IRISH, E. W. DAVIS,
and M'llfroEtezr, were withdrawn before
a ballot was had in caucus. The ridicu
lous story started by a few unprincipled
newsmongers here that the friends of Gen.
CAMERON were opposed to Mr. WILMOT,
stands fairly contradicted by the fact that
some of Gen. CAMERON'S most intimate
and confidential friends were the warmest
and most ardent supporters of Mr. W.—
Mr. WILMOT has always been a warm and
personal friend of Gen. CAMERON, and
we know that he will be heartily welcomed
by the General when he arrives at Wash
ington.
THE NEXT CONGRESS.—In case it
Should become necessary to call a special
session of Congress, its complexion polit
gaily will be a matter of some interest.—
The new Senate numbers twenty-nine Re
publican members, to whom Kansas will
add two, making thirty-one Republicans,
and twenty-three Democrats. The House
already consists of ninety-nine Republi
cans, against fifty-four opposition of all
sorts. Connecticat, Kansas, New Hamp
shire and Rhode Island may be expected
to add ten to this number. The Demo
crats already chosen are forty-seven, and
fifty more to be chosen, with three or four
doubtful. Unless the revolted States re
turn, the Republicans will have a clear
majority in both Houses.
IT is said that Major Ben McCulloch,
a ranger well known in Texas schemes,
is preparing for a descent on the northern
Provinees of Mexico, with the intent 'of
annexing them to the Lone Star State,
thus forming a slave power separate from
the "Southern Confederaoy." This plan
has long been a 'favorite idea with Gov.
Houston and kindred spirits.
The Prospect for Peace.
The Baltimore Patriot regards the ap
pearance of matters in the seceding and
border States as rather more favorable to
peace than it has been, nothwithstanding
the effort to render the inaugural a war
like missile and to provoke the commence
ment of the irrepressiWe conflict in the
way of civil war. Virginia is maintain
ing her original position. irrespective of
the effort to inflame her patriotism and to
introduce the secession strife in actual
conflict. It must be apparent that her
thoughts are still - on peace, and from the
position of all the border . States, includ
ing Louisiana; 'it is likely that her for
bearing counsels and example will succeed
in the promotion of a better feeling
among the excited members of the na
tional family, and in the restoration of
confidence and peace to the country. Let
her continue' her conservative course,
heedless of the taunting and insulting in
vectives and innendoes that are thrown
out by the preis, both at the North and the
South, and we shall live to see the day
when shame shall cover them while she
shall be rejoicing in her triumph. Her
'deeds will soon be history, and it will be
a glorious - record that shall tell of her
success in securing the co-operation of
her sister States and the victory of union
and peace that she may obtain.
BIG CALCULATIONS.—Says one of
President Davis' Cabinet, writing to a
friend in' New York, "We shall have in
the field before the first day of April over
fifty thousand well disciplined soldiers,
commanded by able and experienced offi
cers, most of whom belonged the United
States Army." It will cost at least one
dollar per day for each soldier, or $350,
000 per week, which in the course of a
few months will drain the confederate
treasury •so dry that tariff rates double
those now imposed would not be able to
keep the Government afloat. It is a
thing to boast largely, but if President
Davis ever gets five thousand men to
gether in regular service, he will find
trouble enough to pay them their wages.
PARSON BROWNLOW ON SOUTH CARO
LINA.—Parson Brownlow does not seem
to desire South Carolina's return to the
Union. He says':` "South Carolina has
drawn more money from the National
Treasury than any other State in the
Union, according to her population. She
has hid a larger representation in Con
grass than any other. State of no greater
white population. And she has paid less
into the National Treasury than any other
State of equal population, consuming less
of foreign importations. • She has been a
tax upon the General' Government, and to
get rid of her and her burdens is a God
send. Let her go, and God in his mercy
forbid that she ever return 1"
IMPORTANT TO INVENTORS.--The new
patent law provides that. all patents here
after granted shall be in force seventeen
years froth. the date of izsue, and their
extension is prohibited. It authorizes
the compulsory attendance of witnesses
in litigated, cases; enlarges the right to
patent designs in moulding, casting, elec.
trotyping,•&o.; enables the Commissioner
to dispose of rejected models, and to dis
pense with models when the design can be
represented by a drawing, and discrimi
nates between the inhabitants of the United
States and those of other countries. It
also requires labels on patented articles,
and cuts off all patents not prosecuted
within two years.
"ANTELOPE," the New York cones
pondent of the New Orleans - //amine,
had a look at President Lincoln while he
was ,there, and concludes that “while
there is geniality and merited worth speak
ing from that face, tkere is, at the same
time, an iron cast presented, and an in
domitable will. Indeeil,, at a first glance
he reminded me of one of my sledge
hammers, with which I break rocks at
home—his body slender . like the handle,
but topped, off with a head all solidity,
all firm endarance, all iron. His hands,
too, are all musole, and a strong grip
from them must be like the grasp of a
vice."
SECESSION AMONG THE TYPOS.-at a
late meeting of the Typographical Union,
of Jackson, Miss., a committee was ap
pointed to draft an Ordinance of Sews-
sion from the "National Typographical
Union," With a view to the formation of
another grand body in the Confederate
States.
A TOWN '&CEDING FROM A COUNTY.

GOVERNMENT LOAN OF THE CONFEDE
RATE STATES.—The Montgomery Ad
vertiser the official paper of the new
Southern Government, announces, with
much pleasure and satisfaction, that a
large portion of the new loan offered by
the Government of the Confederate States
will be taken by citizens of New Orleans,
at par. "This confidence of our people,"
it adds, "in the securities of this Govern
ment, contrasts quite favorably with that
of the fragmentary parts of the late
United States in the loans recently au
thorized by the'Congress at Washington."
AT Montgomery, Ala.,, the arrivals of
office-seekers at one hotel are said to have
averaged one hundred per day for the
last two weeks. Jeff Davis has been pro
vided with a private residence by the
Congress paying . the moderate rental of
$5,000 a year. Toombs and Stevens - have
joined funds and taken a small house, in
which they receive their friends.

The list of new words added to the Dictionary in this ap
