a judicial election upon party grounds.
These same gentlemen who affect 50 much
respect for the Judicial ermine, vote for
and support Judge Miller mainly if not
wholly, because he agrees with them in
political sentiment. Away with such az
feciion and humbugry! The democracy
of The North have been wheedled and chea-
ted out of the most honorable and lucrative
offices, for years past, by this no-par,y cry
of the ruffle-shirts. A sensible thinking
democrat will give no eal 10 it, but will
walk right up to the polls, and vote for
Judge Price, Col. Fitzpatrick and Capt.

lions are so disconnec fed, Thai it is impos-
sible to conjecture the precise result; bal
enough is certainly known TO warrant us
in announcing complete, thorough, and
triumphant victory over Tay!orism. The
Wing papers concede this. Trousdale is
elected Governor by large majority; the
Bolivar Telegraph thinks, by something
like 5000 votes. Stanton is reelected TO
Congress by about 500 majority, and as far
as heard from, The Democrats had gained
flrO members Of Congress. One of them
is Ewing in the Nashville District. These
Congressional gains will place the Lower
House of Congress directly in opposition
o TaylOrism, which is running down like
