MT. E'litor-Looking over the columns of certain professe,lly democratic newspaper. we find ,he merits of the two candidates for Senator in this district dis cussed at considerable length over the signatures of Coiebrook & Barkhams,et. neither of which do we believe originated in tho above mentioned places-but that they are the production of restless, un- easy spirit, whose malevolencc could not be gra,ified short of misrepresentation and talsehood. Sc far as we are ac~ quainted. we profess to know something about the feelings of our friends in this vi- cini,y, the piece charac,crizing Mir. Hall is wholly destitute of truth, published 10 to Gratity private animosity rather than to promote the interest of the democrat ic party, for no man in this part Of the country stands higher in the estimation of all parties, md no one has n stronger hold upon tho affection ofth- people. In his intercourse with the world, he is con- sidered man of strict integrity, high minded, honest, honorable &S if we were to select from the ranks of our opponents no one would be sooner taken for office, and if left the alternative of choo sing be- tween the two candidates for senator, our choice would certainly fall on him. Whatever his standing as lawyer may be, his uprigh,nsss has gained him rep uta,ion which cannot be strang,ed by vociteration.

 For several years past most of us have lived within two or three miles of Mr, Bescher. and have an acquaintance with him-and extraordinary as it may ap. pear, we never have discovered those great and good qualifications that give

 him such truncendency over others.

 A man who will make a sacrifice of prin- ciPie, abandon his party pledge, become a dnpe, mere aulomaton set up and worked by Wm. $. HOlablrd, who has never had she confidence of his party sufficien, to gain a seat in the popular branch of Legislature of the State--and if voted for a, ali by ,hose around him, il has no, been done wi,hou, sone conscientious scruples. That Roliin L. Beecher should be at the disposal of such man. to us is astonishing. At the same time We have no ili>will towards Mir. Beecher, nor would We wish to detrac, from his merits in the least.

 We remain firm in our political sen,i> meats, and have to regret we ca mot go with onr friends in the nomination for Senator we ihi0k ahe choice injudicious.
