BelieVing . that an oceaSional-iine from the
seat of government may not be uninteresting
to ybilr numerous readers, I have determined
to wile away a few leisure moments by wri
tinga short letter by way of giving you the
news of the day.
Although the Le7islaturelha4een in ses
sion. for more than a month; v et such is the
tr`Us : character of the Know-Nothing Legisla
ture, that so far as I know, inof-a single act
of apUblic or_ general- nature' has been ma-;
Lured. The truth is, that the choice of a
United States Senator has, and :still does, ab
sorb everything else. Next Tuigday will tell
the tale on this subject, when that interes
ting.individual called "Sam," will roll up his
sleeves and display his brawny arm in behalf
of:his' favorite for the office of United States
SenatOr. It used to be said that it would
take,a:Philadelphia lawyer to. unravel a diffi
cult publem, but 1 am inclined lo think that
...a Philadelphia lawyer with all his fabled as
titteness would be woefully - at fault if called
UpOn; to say who will be United States Sen
ator.:*
The . aspirants for the irriportant post of
- United States ,Senator are numerous enough
God ltnows," and I am inClined, to believe,
that those who•must, and rirost - : 'Undoubtedly
will be disappOinted, when the election
_does
take place, will,feel:so sore about the region
of. the liver, that for a few days it will be
give them'a wide hirth . .'' Many are
the sPeculations as: $o who be elected,
b,ut, 1 am of the opinion that : Gen. Cameron
will be the man.' :The preserd Secretary
of 'State under'Governor Pollock, is one of
the would-be Senators, but what his chances
are I-cannot say. • But upon this subject I
feel very much 'as:the Scotchrhan did in the
fig,ht, When hese.Vi , the parties engaged in - a
most bloody and : determined,batt.le, he threw
up . his;hands, exclaiming, 'among ye be it."
TheGoverner . ha's . - made a few appoint
merits-at last, and'zinong the rest; Thos. Jef
fetsoti - Power, ;Of
,Beaver c9unty, to the of
fice of Adjutant General. 'Mr. Power has
'al ways been esteeined . a good Democrat, till
:the spirit of KhoW-Nothingism :visited the
land,..which i.r.anght him like many others
of vveak 'nerves, and he. succumbed and" be;
;came a willing convert - to the tenets •of the
'new Order. Fie has succeeded_ in obtaining
,a post although . of secondary; ;importance, in
, which I trust he -w ill' have a good time of it.
It may well be said that politics make strange
bedfellOtvs, but these new converts, of the
immaculate Order, should not forget, that
"he who lies down with dogs must getup.
with fleas,"' I 'know' 'Gen. Pow - er_
is - it. clever - fellow;--and - Whilst I regret - his
desertion from the faith..of ,his fathers, I still
hope he may-live to see the error .of his . ways
—turn to his first-, love due- time,-and do
his first works over. again. In due season
