The following communication is from one
Of the most talented and able lawyer, and one
of the most popular men in Middle Tennessee:
Supreme Judge Micajah Bullock, Of Madison.
The election OF Judge, to supply the vacancy
created by the resignation of Hon. A. o. W. Totten
Of the Supreme Court, comes off on Saturday, the
lst DAY OF December, 1855, and as yet but very
little interest is manifested by the people in relation
to the important question, who shall be his success
SORT
Two applicants are now before the people fo-
the position-Micsjah Bullock, whose name heads
this article, and VIM. r. Harris.
We have thought this matter over, and upon
mature consideration, believe that the interests Of
the community will be best promoted, by the
elevation of Mcajah Bullock to this responsible pO-
siion.
In early life, Mica4h Bullock resided in the
ty of Bedford in this part of the State, and he is
well remembered out there, as are informed for
his gentlemanly bearing his kind and courteous
manners and his earnest devotion 20 his profession
Years have elapsed since that time, and the reco-
lection of his virtues still fingers in the memory Of
those who knew him.
Upon the bench, we satisfied that he will
bring to the performance of its duties clear and
well cultivated judicial intellect, an honest heart
and unfinchiDg integrity, and that ne will deport
himself towards all connected with him officially,
with courtesy and kindness.
Therefore, we for Micajah Bullock, and
would be glad to see him elected

DIGD-On the 2sth of October, at her residence
near Alexandria Mrs. SUSAN T. FLINT, relict of the
late James T. Flint and daughter of Mrs. Martha
Martin, OF this vicinity. Two OF her dear children
died at the same time, all of the prevailing epidemic
which for many months has SO afflicted the South.
In attempting to offer consolation to the beloved
family of the deceased, we feel that the effort
would be more than vain for if there brighter
jewel than another among them, twas she! At
the name Of "SUsAN" every eye beamed with
gladness, and every cheek with pride, and to US
who knew her powers of intellect, her fascination
of manner and natural amiabity OF temper, we
cannot wonder that she threw a mysterious spell
around all within her home AS 3 mother, none
were more tender-none more anxious and few as
faithful-the moral culture of her children was her
special care, though she devoted much time to the
improvement of their minds. When we knew her
she was bright, sunny creature, dispensing her
sweet smiles wherever she went Two years since
she was bereft of a devoted husband from which
sad loss she had never recovered, but that which
threatened to destroy every energy of her nature,
found relief in the society OF ford parent, who at
Her ielI ueT uOule among US, TO
soothe Der "darling SUSAN" All well it is that
that poor broken hearted mother could not upft
the veil which hid fuurity. Surely her strong ma
ture would have sunk under such an anticipated If
Fiction. Is it not God-like wisdom, to keep such
things hid from our view? Yet still we bid you
weep dear mother let thy tears fall, they will but
soothe thy anguish, but lift thine eyes to Heaven
and behold the Savior, who has promised "tO do
all things we'll" We know that yours has been a
household of for two years past, that one
wound mas been healed, another and another has
been opened; yet remember Christ at the grave
of Lazarus-as he cared for those weeping children
so he careth for you.

For The Nashville True Wing
Meeting Of the Lebanon Bar.


At meeting of the members of the Bar of
Lebanon, held this day, on motion, W. L. Mar
tin, ESQ.,, was called to the chair, and Jordan
Stokes appointed Secretary, when the Chair
man announced the object of the meeting.
Thereupon the following preamble and resolu-
tions were offered, and unanimously and cor
daily adopted:
WHEREAS, The resignation of the Hon. A. W. o.
Totten mas created a vacancy in the Supreme Court
to be filed by the selection OF some member of the
Bar from the Western Division of the State; that
the members of the Bar, as well as the People at
large, are deeply interested in having this vacancy
filled by the best talents and legal sttaiHments that
the Western Division supply; and in the absence
of any decisive action the part of the people and
Bar of that section of the State We the members of
the Bar at Lebanon, deem il to be our duty as well
right, TO express opinion to the person
who shall be elevated to the position; and whereas
without the expression OF any opinion to the fit
ness and qualifications OF other worthy gentlemen,
whose names have heen mentioned in connection
with this position, recognize in the elevated
character, sterling integrity and high legal attain
ments Of Archibald Wright, Esq, of Memphis, a
suitable man for the vacant Judgeship of the Su-
preme Court,
heS0tted, mat we recommend 10 the cordial sup
port Of the people and the members of the Bar in
other parts Of the State the name of Archibald
Wright Esq, for the vacant seat on the Supreme
Bench, and assure them that in our opinion he is
eminenty qualified for the arduous duties Of the po-
sitiOn.
Resolved, That in the absence of an express de-
CLEMSON of Mr.. Wright, and trusting that he will
not decline the honor if rendered to him by a vote
of the people, we, will use all honorable means to
secure his election.
Resoloed, That these preamble and resolutions be
published in the Herald and Nashville papers, and
copy of them forwarded to Mr.. Wright

Pierce Aopointments.

We copy the following IRON the Washington
american Organ, of the 10th inst
On yesterday, an individual, well known in this
city, by the name Of Robert Jones, and who bad
been in paper of the proceeding day, advertised
by American Council in this city, as a berayer
Of the confidence repOsed in him by the American
Order called to see US, and complained Of the in
justice done him by the insertion of the advertise
ment The only point denied by said Jones, was
the statement that he had been duly ''nitiated;"
yet he admitted, in the presence of dozen persons,
that be had frequently visited the Councils in this
city; had been elected instructor TO one; had made
an American speech in Prince GEORGES county,
Maryland; had deceived the late projectors of this
paper, and thus obtained responsible position in
this office; that he had practised deception and
hypocrisy upon them, and had gained admission to
the American Councils by declaring that he was
member of the Order, and faithful advocate of
American principles. Our readers must pardon US
for prosItuting columns, with the mere mention
of this mans name, we would not be guilty OF such
offence against decenry and morality, it not
that opportunity in thus affords 10 expose, IN
part, the tricks and low means 10 which this admin
istralion will resort to accomplish its purposes
lie now holds Office, and appointed TO the
same by p G. Washington, Assistant Secretary Of
the Treasury, and his appointment recommend
ed by the Editor Of the Star, and the city post
master.
The administration has used him as q tool to ac-
complsh certain ends We mean now to handle
him instrument to expose these very ends,
and We say very frankly that no threats Of suits
for libel can muzzle this press, or drive US from
our purpose The deep, damning iniquties of this
administration, and the miserable means which il
has resorted prosecute American citizens in this
city, whose only crime a love OF country, will
always receive bold and fearless exposition at our
hands.
Such men has the administration appointed 10
Office; such men has il rewarded with responsible
positions under the government, such characters
has Franklin Pierce taken by the hand and welcomed
into the Democratic fold; such characters has the
tools, pimps, and hirelngs of this administration
used to detect Americans and to expose them to
the wrath OF such compeers as Peter G. Washing
ton. To what Sill this administration stoopl To
what will it not descends

The Supreme Judgeship.

We notice the following expression in an ar
ticle on this subject in the Central Democrat,
published at Jackson:
Mr.. Bullock is the candidate of the Know
Nothing party-he himself is a member of the
Order, and he lie aware that lie is run by them
a. their candidate.
We have seen the same statement before,
either in the same paper, or elsewhere. We
have no hesitancy in saying that the editor of
the Democrat has been misinformed, at least as
far as any movement Of that kind in this re-
gion is concerned. A large majority of the
Bar and the people of Middle Tennessee, ire
spective of party, prefer Archibald Wright,
Esq, of Memphis, and we doubt not will vote
for him.

Is 1T WHTG Trick f-The ti-American press
has essayed TO show that the American party was
Wing tTick-that Americans were Wings in
Disguise The recent American triumph in Mary
land clearly shows the utter fasty OF these charges
The Americans have carried the four Congressional
districts which were represented in the last Con.
gress by administration men, and have lost the two
districts which were represented in the last Con-
gress by two Wings. The Whig counties have
given anti American majodtes, and every Demo
cratic county in the State, with but two exceptions
has given American majorities. Baltimore city and
county, which have heretofore been Democratic by
large msjoutieS, nov send 70 Congress two Ameri~
cans, and 20 the Maryland Legislature sixteen
American Representatives. Washington Organ.
