same general features prevailed on Monday, the

THIS right and when persons advance claims,
mud only walk up to but side of the great ques-

party SO called upon cannot be under any obliga-
'ions either directly or indirectly. We like that
sort OF men who procaims boldly what he will and
what he will not sustain. Suspicion hangs around
that man who is eternally shifting and never openly
tells what he intends to do. People draw fearful

contention thus creeps into party and its organi-

ing their opinions of the workings of the system Of
an elective judiciary They unanimously declare
that it is reer from objections than any other mode,
and what seems to be hard to beat into The heads
Of the advocates Of the old regime, that the people 9
generally divest themselves of party considerations
when choosing between rival candidates for the ,-
dietary, and take great pains to obtain information
as to which one is best qualified to make Judge,
without reference 10 party predictions. These
testimonials coming from the high sources whence
they emnate, are entitled to much weight with the
Louisiana delegates to her convention now in ses-
sion. They derive additional value from the fact
that they are based upon the observations of the
workings of the system in this State, for twelve
years pa't, and all the gentlemen, save Governor
Brown, are wings. We observe that the Concor-
