! JUDGE OF THE SUPREME CoURr-The Hon
JOHN C. KNOX had been appointed by Gov. Big
Ter as one of the Judges of the Supreme Court,
to fill the vacancy occasoned by the deah of
Judge Gibson.
I Judge Knox is well known to the peopls of
Cambria, having presided in :his Judicial DIS
;rict for some time, previous to its presen al
teraton. When the Judicial became elective,
he Was nominated by the Democracy of the Glar
ion District, although not n resident of it, and
elected to preside i'll it by an overwhelming ma
jority over his Whig competitor Judge Bufsug-
ton. His legal attanments are of high order
he is in the prime of life, and will be orna-
ment to the dgnfed bench to which he has b.en
selected. He is, we believe, a native of Tiega
county. and represented that county for two or
three sessions in the Legislature, when he was
appointed by Gov. Skunk to preside in the old
10th Judicial District. His appointment wilino
doubt be highly satisfactory to the Northern ind
North Western people of our state. who dad
heretofore been overlooked in the selection of
candidates for the Supreme Court, and wien
the time comes the people of the whole state will
ratisfy it at the polls by an overwhelming ma
jority.
