In respect to our Candidates, we deem the pre-
sent, proper opportunity for few remarks So
far as the gubernatorial nominee is concerned, we
need say but little. lie has been before the people
his merits known, and his fellow citizens have
reposed their confidence in him on several occasions
AS Governor of our State, he has shown himself the
friend of the people and the uncompromisng guar
dian of their rights and their honor lfthe people
of this State, will but bring his public acts to the
test O. rigid and impartial scrutiny, we have no
fears TO the resuit-he will be triumphantly re-
elected Governor ofthis State, at the approaching
election


OUR SENATORS:


For the Senate, our nominations are such as to
challenge criticism. We will begin with Hon.
SAMUEL GRAY, of Bowdoinham; our readers in
this section know him, as he has always been known
an honest straight forward friend of the people.
BY profession, he is Lawyer, though he has for
several years almost entirely deserted the bar, and
given his attention to Commerce. As a merchant,
he stands high in this community; and his knowl-
edge of trade and commerce, his uprghtncss as
citizen, and his sterling integrity as a politician,
place him beyond the reach of malice, and pecuIi-
ary fit him for the important station he has been so
unanimously selected to occupy, lie will do honor
to old Lincoln.


Hon. WIN. THOMAS, OF Thomaston, we have
always understood, from both friends and foes, to
be very worthy, and highly talented gentleman.
With him, we have not the honor of personal
acquaintance; but Judging him by his course IN
the Senate last winter, and by general report, we
commend him again with renewed confidence, to
the voters of Old Lincoln


Hon. THADDEUS WEEKS, of Je efferson, we
know from long acquaintance, TO be gentle
man of unsullied reputation, firm democrat,
and an unwaveIing friend of the people He is
mechanic and merchant, patriot and gentle
man of unquestoned integrity and talent. The
citizens of Jefferson, and all that vicinity will
we could wish to give him.


Hon. JAMES LOWELL, of Lewiston, has
been tried one year in the State Senate, and was
found "not wanting" Mr.. Lowell will carry
The united strength of the party, and more in
his own vicinity. In word, we have list of
nominees for the Senate that we feel proud Of
They all WHIGS-they are all DEMO
Gratis, in the true sense of that term. As they
are, so will they ever be-true ard firm, un-
wavering and immovable. Let us to the rescue,
and give them our full strength, wings of Lin
coin
