B Tbe question as to who shall- represent J onrdty and county ln tbe next Bute Senate is one which should force Itself upon the utmost diacrettoo and diacrimlnalion • In arrirlng at a decialoc. The poailton of - a Stale Senator Is one not only of honor, but of grot responsibility, and according,- . = ly as It is Blled by a man of abSitsj' jnS. togrity and experience, or tbe terete, „ are the inleratta of both coanty and Male 2 materially affected, either lo their benefit m and adraacemeoL or their Injury and " orerthrow. It Is one/moreover, of dijnl"i ty aDd InOoracc— one entitled In respect and whlAsgkould not be beedlassly or ^ thought inijv bestowed. The same, If * not c-exV-o. Si.e and forethought should ; be exerdsed in choosing tbe men wbo ere to ooodoet public business, aa we would ohaerre -in entrusting tbe management of . our pi irate affaire to another. Each and every citizen la morally and socially responsible for the manner in , whidt be casts his ballot for those who ■ are to bare charge of the' law-making - power, or to become public officers. In " this matter a strict sense of duty — a rei gard for the public inlet cats and welfare, i should erer be the guide and the incentive. To tbe good citlxen tbe exercise of tbe t elcctl re fraocbtie la not only a serious, but . a samed thing. He weight well tbe qoesI tioD-of doty; knows that be is not votiog I for himself alone, tjut for good gorern- [ moot, for wholesome laws and for tbe . good of tbe community in which be Urea, lie feels that by bis vote be la aiding lo place is pablic position those wbo are to prove faithful and honorable repreaeniai lives of the people or otherwise. Has it , erer occurred to our readers that our Ax- , artnblymen, Bute Senators and Cnngreaa- , should at all. limes be toch a type of - as to at once Indurate the standing I and character of their Immrslietr constituency? It la not In tbe nature of things lor , intelligent and eoligblcoed community to elec ignorant. Incapable or nnwortby aa representatives; and when such elected, it can at ooce be safely sutd ' truthfully aaaertnl that tbe citizens of that 1

oommooity have born derelict in their *■ doty and failed to exercise ln tbe proper manner their own rights and privileges, re Bo much has the matter of electing 1" proper men An tbe Legislature been neg m lected, that for the public good, in many *1 of our principal stales, a morensent baa id been Initiated for tlie purpose of elevating "• dales, and selecting only men of cbaracm tcr, education and principle jurd this inc. *- spective of political party. Tbe move- « meet la a good one, and la ds'ly gaining « ground. Tbe people who for years have * suffered frtgn incompeteol and currupt '} legislators hare taken It up, and, ax a result, >t booesty and capability have come to the front, and greater care and sent liny ate rs observed in the matter of nominations. We of Cape May have a Stale Senator ^ to elect. Tt la of the bigbrnt Importance . that be be a man of irreproachable n character and of ability. We cannot ef0 ford to be behind tbe true men of otbrr ci I i'l w in nominating oar best and moat available , candidate for tbe position. Our oily dor1 log ibe season just past has regained its ' popularity of years ego. Her reputation is a high one. and It is the duly of her citizens in selecting a Senator lo represent ^ her in the State Legislature, to select ooe ( whose laleulaandmbililles as well aa perd a mat character are such as to oommand respect and do honor to ber fair name and

ber people. We are glad to notice that d popular acalimant has already expressed X Itself In favor of a W. Saayer.tbe eatl timable proprietor of tbe CbaKonte.

I refer to my friend, ex -Sheriff A, touts, of Dennis Township. Mr. Adams : a man of few words, it to true, and obi jeetion on that grouDd may be made to i bto candidacy. Hut I regard auch a qualification as more to be commended than i blherwisc. It mvcs bim a great deal of trouble after election io not having promises to account for which were never intended to be fulfilled.

When bqmigbi bare secured tbe nomina- . lion for the Senate three yen* ago by Ihe of a hand, be preferred to forego tbe honor for (be good of hto party, and that peace and harmoay in its ranks might prevail. It to doe bio now tbat tbto nomination be tendered him. Lit it be done with that unanimity and enthusiasm which marked Ihe nomination of our candidate for Congress This to no time to take risks Act u Democrats sod patriots; sink all petty Jealousies and dissections, and rise to a sense of the foil relationship ; existing between true citizenship and true Wax Dsuocsat. i
