THE REVOLUTIONARY PARTY.

We do not deem it necessary, at present to say
any thing more in relation to the revolutionary
scenes enacted in the late House of Commons by
Whig leaders. We have given the people OF both
parties faithful account of these scenes and thus
far none of our statements have been disproyed.
They cannot be, for they are bottomed in the
rock of truth. 81 80,
We expected that as matter OF course, the
Wing papers of the State would approve this
violent and revolutionary conduct on the part Of
their leading men; and in this expectation we have
not been disappointed. If the government had been
actually arrested in its course and overturned these
unscrupuleus partizans would not have lacked de-
tenders and apologsts.
Bnt we have not exhausted the subject We
intend, If we should be at the head Of this press
in the campaign Of 1854, to go again into all the
facts involved in this affair, and to hold up these
revoutionists in their true colo before their
| stituents and the people Of the State. Tie fact,
are on record, and they have been laid aside 70,

JUDGE SrRANeE's OPINION. We find in the Raj
eigh Standard an article by Judge Strange upon the
question whether the Executive of State has the
power, under the Constitu,isn, Of appointing Sem
ator in place of whose term has expired during
the recess of the Legislature. 1t is an able and
lengthy document, and clearly proves think, that
poin,men, after the vacancy has occurred. I, re.
views the whole case, shows what meaning must
have been attached to the word "happen " by the
trainers of the Constitution, that vacancy occasion.
cd by the expiration of term does not differ from
vacancy caused by death, and that il is such vacan-
cy the Constitution authorizes the Executive of
State to 6I. There 10 no Law requiring Lsgisa.
ture to Gil vacancy before it occurs, and iha fac,
that the late Legislature attempted Intellectually to
exercise this power, 10 exercise of the power. and
therefore cannot be urged denial Of power in the
Executive to fi.l the vacancy.

He differed also in the commendatiops bestowed mp
on Mr.. Everett, fof declln'ns the treaty which was

that this nation would never do that which they

MIR. BADGER.

1t seems now to be understood that Mr.. Badg-
efs nomination for Supreme Court Judge has been
laid over by the Senate-in other words, will not
be acted upon at all. =. - ~ =
We are surprised that gentleman of Mr.. Bad
gers peculiar personal pride should have permitted
his name to be used when there was any reason-
able ground to apprehend that he would meet with
disappointment. he must have bad strong assur-
ances that he would be confirmed, or he must have
desired the Office very much. If the nomination
has, indeed, been laid over, this is his last chance
for seat on that Bench.
Mr.: Badger would no doubt make good Su-
peme Court Judge; but then his views Of the
Federal Constitution and Of the powers Of the Fed
era government are erroneous to the last degree.
Mr. Badger has succeeded welI-remarkably
well as lawyer, but as politician he is decidedly
commonplace. His stump efforts are, invariably,
onyelegant rehashesof party slang and his spolit-
@speeches in the Senate are alike weak and super
aea' He is a good lawyer, just as that man OF
ae other is good carpenter; but as a politician,
