Our Candidates.-We place at the head of our columns, this week, the name of Hon. G. W. Scofield of Warren, as our candidate for Congress. Also, the names of Martin H. Shannon of Jefferson county, and Warren Cowles of McKean County, for Assembly.
The friends of the Union and the Constitution have now presented to them State and District tickets, of good and true men in whom they can rely on all occasions in this the hour of our country's greatest peril-men who will stand by our National Administration in every effort to crush out treason and rebellion, and who will not palliate the offences of the rebels nor aid them by pretending to fight an imaginary political foe.
We will have something more to say in reference to our candidates, next week.
