"Avery substantial reason, he thought, why the elections should all be made, was, that these being over, the Legislature could theft proceed to despatch the necessary business, free of excilemebt, and go home to their constituents. Doubts had been -expressed as to the views of. the gentlman nominated by him on particular subjects.

He be lieved he knew all his principles, and he was satisfied with them. Ha as sured gcTntlemen he meant nothing un- air, he wislicd nothing ' unfair he thousht it was well understood that this election was to come on to-daj . Mr. King said, the gentleman irom Lincoln stated that it was well under stood the election of Governor was to come on to-day. He would ask, by whom wts it understood? It might have been by the leaders of the party with which the gentleman acted, but certainly the understanding Mas not general. As a free man, lie protested against the application of party fiameis, whether it were to serve political friends or opponents. The gentleman however was so desirous of despatching the public business, that he would con sent to no delay. The parly to which he. belonged, arrogated to themselves, ,belw tending to the public interests. Air. said he recollected distinctly that the election for a United States Senator last winter was precipitately bvought on for, the very same reason, viz: that the public business might be despatch ed. Gentlemen were invoked to give an impetus to business by having the election over. It was done, and in a few days we had a beautiful exemplifi cation of the manner in which the pub lic business was to be despatched. A trigf-Poltit-Res4Htions-were brought forward, disgraceful to the State and to the party by. whom they were introduced, which were debated for several days at an expense of some &J 0,000 or 812,000 to the State .This was tlie way in which "the public bu siness was despatched." And he had understood that another political dose of like character was now in prepara tion, the one administered last session not having proved strong enough for the purpose intended. With regard to the gentleman nom inated, he felt fur him great personal respect, but he was a political racer, whose notions he did not like, and he could not vote for him. He imputed nothing" derogatory to. the gentleman from Lincol a, bu ( h could not hejp.rer mafkirt'Vlut'aattdd'eiii revolution his feelings had undergone with regard to his candidate.

Of the nominee, he knew personally, but. little, either for or againt.;;"lle-knew-.tnlyv"lhthe.as on a particular side as regards Feder al politics. lie protested against making Federal politic the pivot on which an election ot this kind should turn. Instead of examining into the principles of xandidates, -to ascertain whether they are in favor of measures -lcnlaW4oehjvareth conditiotrof the State, it is enough for some gen tlemen tliat they brlnng-to a certain party, oreat questions are now agi tating the country. There was one particularly, and he sm not atiuue to it now for the purpose of discussing its merits, in as much as he. had laid Resolutions on the table in reference to it.

It is the duty ot the Govemor to attend to measures of State policy to deyclope and foster our internal resources and leave President making- to others. He wished time to enquire into the prin ciples, not the political preferences of the candidates. By Thursday, the day mentioned, he, could make up his mind. Suppose in our own case a candidate for the : Legislature was to come out before the people on the day of election?
