SOUTHERN CrLrVAroR.--Th June number of this

THE CHIEF JusrIcEsHIp--The Hon. GEORGE EUsrIs,
having been solicited by the bar of New Orleans,
to be candidate for Chief Justice Declines assign

"The arrangement of the Western circuit of the
Supreme Court in the autumnal months, renders it
impossible for the Judges to perform their duties
properly or with satisfaction to themselves The
holding Of the sessions of the Court in Opeousas
and Alexandria, In the unhealthy month of septem-
Der, is recommended neither by convenience or any

As Mason he was pure, zealens, faithful, friend

In his death, Masonry has lost bright ornament,

HDEMoCRATIc VICTORY IN IBERvILLE.-
The election for members Of the Police jury
in the parish of Iberyille, has resulted in
the triumphant success of the whole Anti
Know-Nothing ticket. The Ibcrville Ga
zettc says: In the End Ward, the hotbed
Of Know-Nothingism, the Democratic ma
.jority was 80; and at the polls, on the oppo-
site side of the bayou, out Of n votes, the
Know-Nothing candidate received but ONE.
This victory of principle over chicanc
and humbug is very honorable to the De-
mocracy of Ibcrville. The party was far
from being well organized, and yet with its
own strength of numbers it quelled the vaun-
ted power of the secret faction. The staunch
and able Democratic journal above-namcd
remarks further: "Thanks to the intoler-
ance and bigotry that SO sngularly char
acterize the new sect, many honorable mem
bers of the Wing party have joined us, and
joined us on principle, because they could
not unite with class of men, whose opin-
ions, if generalized and carried into effect,
would directly tend to the overthrow of all
Republican institutions

known as the Union Bank Bond If they did, as
thus charged, hold convention for Mississippi out
