From the Kentland Gazette: FOR STATE SENATOR.

Eds. Gazette: —To quell all animosities on the Senatorial question in this district, I nominate W- W. Gilman. He has served us well as Representative and can poll a large majority vote for Senator. If he will accept, lets elect him; at any rate, we can think this matter over between now and nomination day. Republican. We could think of no better man. It’s a good suggestion.—Gazette, The Gazette does not state from what county the above proposition is made. But the Radical Senatorial muddle is by degrees assuming the shape intended by the “ring.” The hostility manifested toward Maxwell, through the Kentland Grazette—pos sibly by thh bosses here; —the faint support at first given the Dr. by the “ring” organ at this place; its sudden flop, and declarations of admiration and undying love for the choice of the Jasper county primary—from the 6th July, it’s choice now and forever* “first, last and all the time”; it’s bitter, uncalled for, impolitic and injudicious attack upon Benton county’s candidate, Mr. Travis, has “cooked the Dr’s goose” in that county. Such was and is the design, and so far the programme of the “bosses” has been faithfully carried out. Following is the future of the programme: Max** well is to be slaughtered and crocodile tears will be shed o’er his grave; Gilman, of Newton, will fce nomlnat ed for Senator, and the chairman of the radical central Committee of Jasper county, M. F. Chiloote, will be the nominee of Jasper and Newton for Representative. Such is the decree of the “bosses.”
