The appointment of the Hon. Levi Woodbury.
to seat on the Supreme bench ofthe United States,
Is well received IN this section, barring The regret felt
for his loss in the Senate. A true champion OF
democracy there, everywhere else he will not fail
to carry its spirit with him. and also its moral polit-

one of the wing aspiranis for that high Office.
Judge Mclean, believe, is great favoriic of some

there is many lady anxious to exchange her 81 500
