Candidate for CircuitJudue.

We were informed yesterday that at the
urgent solicitation Of many friends, irrespec.
tive Of party, A. L. Robinson, Esq, has con-
sented to run for Circuit Judge of this Judi.
cial district. Some few OF the members OF
the Petersburgh convention were desiroas
that Maj. Robinson should run for this office,
and indeed as is known, proposed his name
just at the adjournment of the meeting, but
it has since been understood that he would
not run. But it is now settled fact that he
piA run. 1t is unnecessary to speak of Maj.
Robinson's qualifications for this office. He
is known over the whole district, and his
most biaer enemy will not breathe doubt
as to his capability. Further than that and
to say he is infinitely the superior of Judge
Niback, We have nothing to say, but leave
the sub, ect of his election with the people.
