Re stands before the people of Penneyleenis, not only as the representative of the principles and policy of the Demmerstie party, but also as a oiti sen upon whose shoulders the smile of the la , cleated Gibson will most fittingly rest As scholar, & jurist, and so upright judge, he has few Muni*, and no superiors in the State. We look for his election as a foregone eonelasion, and only hope that every Democrat to Nrie county I can have the proud satistactiou of saying bend. ter that he oontributed his vote to the grand re suit. The Democratic candidate for Canal Commie sioner, Hon. Wesrrtze Fuger, is a gentleman equally worthy of our support. It is true, the sale of the public improvements of the State will result, most likely at, the next session, in the abolishment of the oldie for which he is named. and hence the importanee attached to the olive if not so great as formerly—still the law requires the election; the candidate has been duly nomi• stated, and his election is due shim to himself and his numerous friends throughout the State. For Congress, owing to an unfortunate train of circumstances, the Democratic party was left sethout a candidate until almost the last hour; Erie emote presented the name of Was. A GAL: BB.AITH, Req., and Crawford county that of Judge With either of them in the field, in view of the distracted state of the opposition, the chance of success would have been good. We would bare supported either with great pleasure; but the conferees could not agree which should be withdrawn, and Wat P. Setsmott, Reg of Meadville, was agreed upon as a compromise.— With Mr. S. we have been long and intimately acquainted, and a more pleasing gentleman, or a better man, socially, dose not exist.

For Ogogress—Who 1 Wm. P. Shattuck, Req., having received the Democratic nomination for Congress, and hav ing declined it, the Democratic party is left with out a candidate.. For whom shall they vote, is then the, question? We are not prepared to say. It is very plain, however, who they cannot vote for—and that is Elijah Babbitt, the Regular nominee of rho Republican party. No Demo+ crat will certainly vote for him. On the other hand, XIS. C. Marshall is in the field as a volt's'• teer, and if he had not bolted the nomination of our county convention, after baring submitted his deltas to it, we would have no hesitation in urging the Demosratio party to sustain him.— As it is, as be has seen fit to "spit upon" that convention, we eau only turn him over to those who brought it into existence to be dealt with as they may deem beat Wllliver their verdict is it will be satisfactory to ue.. If they can fort give the sin of disorganisation, and take Mr. M. again into favor, well and good—there is no one that will more cheerfully acquiesce than the Ed' icor of this paper. Then, there is Gen. John Dick, running se an independent. There is but one consideration that could ever induce us to vote for him —and that is the hope of defeating the regular candidate of the Republicans, and disorganizing the party. We ate not prepared to urge any Dernoarat to do this. We are not prepared to tell our readers to forgive John Dick his many sins, and help him again to a seat in Congress—and yet that course perhaps might be the best means of disorganising the opposition. Of this every Democrat must be his own judge. We wash our hands of all of them—only reserv. log the privilege of urging upon the Democracy on Tuesday next, tech and every one, the policy of casting his vote as he may deem best calcula ted to defeat and disorganize the Republican par ty.

First, Ilea, we wished to aseertsia how the nomination of Mr. SHATTUCK was ra. eeived by our friends in Meadville. We desired to know further whether-there was any prospect, of his receiving such aid from the oppseatien as would give him a °heave of sneeese, should this ! eminty do her duty. We bed bees informed es I Monday, by s leading Republican of that °octa -1 ty, that if Judge entreost could be brought into the field as a candidate, be would receive a large. Republican vote—and we thought, if this was the fact, and Mr. SHATIVOK could not reeeive such help, it would be doing the Democratic party good service if he could be itelttoed to de cline, and allow Judge CHUICH to come out as a volunteer. The gentleman who went with as, still who is a Democrat, concurred in these views. The gentlemen who went ahead of Oa, and who I tire not Democrats, would have cheerfully co. operated in this arrangement if it could have been accomplished. But it was not aeeemplielied. Mr. SHATTUCK we an deretood to be willing to withdraw, but when we urged Judge Catmca to allow the use of his name as a volnateer, ter em. phatically refused. The reason/ he gave ter this refusal, while they. were not setisfaetory , to us, were doubtless so to him, sod that is sufficient. As to soy arrangement that might have been made before we got to Meadville, or may have been made since we left, Adopting ldr Shattuck as a esodidate, or this Congressional canvass, we l wash oar bands of it entirely. We . had no part nor lot in it—neither bad the gentlemen who went with us. We went to Meadville with no intention of benefitting the Republican party— we Came back with none—lnd os the day of the election, We shalt so cast our vote as we shall deem moat injurious to the Republican organise, I tion. When the gentlemen, who declaim so fiercely over one mission, as they &Hedged, to "sell out the Democratic party," can say as much it will be time enough for them to complain of es. Whenever either one of Own, or all of them combined, has spent as many hears in defending the Deateeratio party as we have--when they have received we many bard knocks from the enemy—when they have cheerfully performed as moth work, gratuitously, gut disbursed as many dollars freely to maintain the Democratic organisation in this county,--they will have a lep i rmightthan they now hate to abase us If and a straight forward way to do it, and thiiis to go to the polls and vote for him HO mew-. but don't let them steal the livery of Democriey to do it in, and then e tnre round and traduce, ns, by ascribing to tie a desire to sell oat the Demo cratic,party SUNSVILY AND ERIE 841111AOAD —Tb. work upon this road is being rapidly pushed forward. The rills at Farrandsville, a distance of some thirty- seven more miles, are to be laid this fall, sod the iron is now shipped to Erie to bo laid upon the Westerh Division, leading from Erie to the coal fields of Elk county. The eery will be running from Sunbury to Parrandsville in the spring, and from Erie to Warren before the end of next summer. The contracts for the Central Division will soon belgiven out. The company are only awaiting some additional surveys. The rapid completion of this road is beginning to awaken considerable interest among the capital• lets in reference to the ooal field* of Elk mod tho adjacent country. The fields command the lake trade, and as soon as the Western Division is finished, will be extensively opened to business. The contract for laying the rails on the* entire road, eteepting the western division, has just bees , let to Mr. Casement, who has the teratrast for, and is now laying the track on the Pittsburg and Erie road. stir As the, Democrats have no eaodidste for Congress, they oso pay more attention to the Senate, Legislative, and Sheriff tickets.

My course, I have treen c:e fication to know, had the approval of a number of my fellow ci tizenw and Demoeratic friends.— Thusi matters stood unto the nomination of Wm. P. Shatoick, Esq., by the Congres sional Conferees at Edinboro. With his nomination I was prepared to acquiesce, believing it ta have been fairly made, and that he would be the standard-bearer of the party intead of the few. I was further prepared, in case he declined to carry the colors, to have them placed in the hands of any other good Democratic leader, and I should retire. I was only waiting to know certainly who that leader was, to make 115,, , best bow, for the favor with which 1 had been received; to withdraw as a candidate, to unite_ in one common effort for success Greatly to my amazement I now learn that Mr. Shattuck has withdrawn and in stead of the colors being placed in the hands of some other good Democratic leader, they are entrusted to Gen, Dick, a Republican politician of the most ultra stamp. How such a humiliating and dishonorable ar rangement was brought about, I am not informed with certainty—time will doubt less uncover the dishonest instruments, who have disgracefully bargained to sell the party as an article of merchandise, and to trail our time honored flag in the dust. I for one, will consent to no such arrange ments, and instea I of retiring, as I desired and intended, - I have concluded with the advice of my friends here, to remain in the field as a candidate ; and now appeal to My Democratic fellow citizens in the dis trict to come to the rescue and give me their support, and 1 promise them to carry their colors, if not to success, not to dis. grace.
