Judges Edmonds and Roosevelt, Of tho Supreme
Court. Judge Edmonds, on Saturday, reversed q
judgment Of Judge Roosevelt, and the latter issued
an order yesterday for the defendants in tho suit to
show cause why the decision OF Judge Edmonds
should not be vacated. Who shall decide when
Judges" disagree?

the ''young democracy andthe 'old' are tearing
them selves to very tatters, stripping Of their old
limbs, in the quarrel for the spois of the White

of the 4th Of July In fact, from this day forward
till the meeting of the two national conventions,
the t.o old parties that have divided the country
for a quarter Of century, will be excited in an
equal degree and that degree, probably far beyond
anything which We have experienced during the LIST
twenty or thirty years.

In another column Of this days sheet, will be
found very interesting historical view of the
movements connected with the WING party, on the
subject of the Presidency, and particularly about
Mr. Fillmore for the last two years, in the South
ern region Of the Union. Following this int.
resting view Of Southern wing politics, we place
another nomination made Of Gen. Scott for tho
Presidency, by another Wing State Convention,
which took place few days ago, in the ma gnifcent
little pocket edition Of State called Delaware.
This additional nomination by Delaware, of Gen.
Scott for the next whig can iida.e, makes, in all,
three nominations of him by whig State conventions
during the opening of the present season, without
referring to the nominations which had been ade Of
the same hero and candidate, about year ago, in
Pennsylvania and Ohio-which nominations, how.
ever, received the negative Of the people Of both
these great State. Maine, Indiana, and Delaware
have now recorded their voices as far as the wings
ere conNrned, in favor Of Gen. Scott Delaware,

grand, magnificent, mighty platform of fighting

exclusively the "bleed and carnage platform" in

Now, it is we'll known that the whis party ia
