sion revived for six months, the act of the Company
authorizing subscribers tc pay out share of stock

interest at per cent. upon all cash payments for

applying to the holders of her bonds, for permission
to defer the payment of the January nstament of in
terest, until the LIST Monday in March, in each year,
for three years come interest for the extended Pc
Rod to be paid at the rate Of per cent The reason
assigned for the change is, that the annual payment
of taxes do not fall due until February and that the
farmers do not generally realize from their produce.
in time to permit the taxes TO be collected sooner
without great inconvenience. 1t is pity, that any
modification of the arrangement recently entered
into with the bond-holders, should be required yet
we presume it will be readily granted. Mr.. Collins
expects that after three years, the State will be able
TO pay the interest in January, as heretofore.

ona IL is not surprising that this fuss husiered some
OF our democratic friends at Brookville also They
were dralced on. little, by the slam Indignation of
Clarkson. They US for the author OF the BIZ

Others which it is useless to answer, here or other

If correctly informed by democratic authority,
he is the son of Richard Tyner ESQ.,, merchant, well
known of the Oldest and warmest wings of

the late Governor Noah Noble he is a cousin of our
'frend" Hackleman. the able editor of the Nashville
(Whig) Republican, and is a nephew, also, of Har-
ris Tyner, tolerably well known wing citizen Of
Marion county. These facts, we of course should
not have mentioned had they not been brought out by
the ridiculous attitude assumed by the State Journal
the Indiana American and other wing papers.
These fellows. we suppose, may continue to abuse
Mr.sTyner. His conduct, however, evinces that he
has the manhood and the ability 10 meet them. A
fine time of day, it is, indeed, when the State Jour-
nal which declared that regard for whig principles

Extract of q letter written at

DuNNv1LLE, Grand River, C,W.April %, 1856.
My wife has been afflicted for number of
years with general dropsy; about year past it
increased to an alarming state, so much that her
limbs at times have swollen to one third over their
natural size. The disease continued to reduce
her in strength. After trying many kinds of
medicine, came to the conclusion that her case
was quite hopeless. When your Vegetable Lith-
ontriptic Mixture was recommended conclud-
ed that would try once more, and by so doing
found it successful in curing. After using two
large and one small bottle she believes herself
entirely cured. give you this testimony hoping
that it may prove benefit to those who may be
afflicted with the same disease, that they may try
it and gnd relief-and also wish to expresses
gratitude to DR.. Vaughn the inventor of this
medicine. JARIUS COOK.n

election Of Judges hy the People.

The subject of electing Judges by di-
rect vote of the People, is attracting gene
raj attention all over the country. This
reform has been adopted by several states,
and works admirably. The question is
now before the Legislatures Of many other
states, and appears TO meet with great favor: :,
We earnestly hope that the Legislature OF
Pennsylvania will no, adjourn without a.
dopting this important measure. @ Inc
general voice Of the People, ot all parties
IS in its favor. The candidates for Judi
eial Offices, says the Editor Of that excel
lent paper the Louisville Democrat, in an
able article on this subject, would Of course
be confined to the legal profession; and
we here state as fact known to all, that
no class Of men is as fairly estimated by
the whole puplic, as that Of lawyer. They
stand before the public upon their merits
and demerits, properly estimated; and we
do not see that public sentiment would be
likely to commit any serious errors IN
choosing q Judge. Blu, suppose the elec:'
ors err; they hnve the best right to err;
and the evil would be no more serious, or
Of more frequent occurrence, than in el-
ther of the other modes.
Indeed, we think that popular suffrage
on this point would make great and sal
utary change. The way to make man
independent, as far as independence is
virtue, is to make him responsible TO, the
popular verdict. He will then be viglllant
and cautious; knowing that thousand eyes
are upon him, and thai his acts will under
go q thorough scrutiny. and that his only
defensible position is that Of stern inffexible
Justice. Give US Eor the judicial office
good salaries, limited tenures, and popular
elections, and our courts will be indeed
courts Of Justice We shall have no indo-
lence, or superanua,ed twaddle from the
bench. We should then have hope tor
the reform Of abuses in our laws. We
should have vigillant, active men on the
bench, who could point out by experience
when off the bench what the law should be,
as well as to decide on the bench what it
is. We think it would diffuse new life
into this department of our government,
greatly 10 the benefit Of the Sta,e.'-Pitts'
