Jldicial Nominations,

No ticket ever presented 10 the people
ought more strictly 10 denote the lines of
party, than the next State Judicial ticket.
The Supreme Court is part of our Gov
ernment, and an essential and influential
part of it. The Legislature has been at
times in the hands of our adversaries; but
never the Supreme Court. If we look at
the history of Whig Legislatures, we may
form some idea of what Wing Supreme
Court would be. The Democratic ma
jority will be large for the Governor; and,
we believe, as large for the Supreme Court.
ANY Democrat in the State who could so
far forget the great interests of the Com
monweaIth and Of the Party, as to be be-
trayed into the support of schemes, if such
there be on foot, to put forth a a7luiGttO
ticket, IAN admiXture of both parties,) will
never cease to regret his mistake. 1t will
be of no use for Democratic Legislatures
to enact good laws, if Whig Supreme
Court is to mould them by construction.
We feel it TO be our duty, thus early, 10
urge upon all our Democratic editorial
brethren throughout the State, 10 take
strong and manly ground upon this most
important question. If by any chance,
or mischance, Supreme Court should be
elected, composed entirely of Wings, or
what is worse, partly of Wings and partly
of tishy Democrats, it will require three
triennial contests-nlne years-to gain
what we would throw away.

State contain iron works; of the seventeen
that have no furnaces, nine contain abun-
dance of ore and coal; bat have been neg
lected, owing TO the want of good roads

suited to the manufacture of iron. In

ARREST FOR Mail RoBBERY.-Colone

ARREST FOR MAIL RoBBERY.-Colonel
Otinger, the active U. S. Post Office
agent, last week arrested William King,
at franklin, Venango county, under charge
of robbing the mail. King was deputy
under Larkin Turner, a former Postmaster
at Brownington P. o. Butler county, Pa.
The charge was, for purloining money
from the mail about year ago. After his
arrest, he procured habeas corpus, and
had hearing before Judge Plummer, by
whom he was remanded. This arrest will
probably lead TO that of others, as a gang
of depredators on the mail have existed in
that direction, for some time, who have
been exercising the vigilance OF the Post
Office agents.

/ TERRIBLE SCENES IN New MEXICo.-
| Horrible atrocities. Maj. Bartlett, COM
missary of the boundary commission, ar

nicated to the Picayune the following
fearful narrative -
| "Maj. BIS. party, when about 224 miles
this side of Ell Passo, discovered a smoke
at some distance. They sent out party
| to reconnoitre, and discovered a negro man
| and woman III the act of cooking food,
and, on further search, the head of ne
gro was found in the fire. They said they
had been compelled to kill one of their
companions for food. They had been
nine days out, their gun had burst, and
they were in state of starvation. The
account they gave of themselves was this ::
they were all slaves of man named Ow-
ems, near Holly Springs, Mississippi, and
had run away together last complaining,
making for Mexico. The boy killed was
| about 10 years OF age, named Arthur; the
other is black, aged from twenty-seven
to thirty, calling himself Henry; the girl,
bright mullatto, about twenty-one, named
Malnda.
"These last two were taken to San An
tonic. and left in custody of one Antonio
Navano
"Major Bartlett brings accounts of some
| horrible scenes of disorder, riot, murder
and execution which took place at Socorro
about the closing day of January. 1t
seems that bands of armed ruffians-dis-
| charged teamsters and soldiers, and from
tier desperadoes-had been over-awing
| the quiet inhabitants of Socorro, by para
ding the streets armed and committing all
manners of lawless acts. They robbed
and killed openly, without any provocation
or remorse. Instances are given of their
seizing an unoffending man, taking away
his gun, and killing him with it, without
the shadow of cause, and brutally beat
ing the women. Through the 2Sth and
29th of January they ranged like wild
beasts, committing all sorts of crimes,
when party of the citizens sent an ex-
press TO the United States troops al San
EleZurlo, about six miles off, asking for
protection, which was declined, and the
applicants referred to the civil power.
'.On the night of the 29th most auda-
cious outrage was committed. The robber
band, seeking a man named Clark, (E. c..
Clark, said to be the son of j. w. Clark,
United States Senator from Rhode Island,)
went TO the fandango or dancing party
where he was, and maltreated the whole
party of males and females. They placed
sentinels at the entrance, and fired off pis-
tolls at the candles, and otherwise terrified
the women, threatening death to man or
woman who should stir; and finally the
leader, one Alexander Young, assisted by
