HON THOMAS II. LEWIS.

On Monday next, the voters Of Louisiana
will have an opportunity Of casting their votes
for a Chief Justice Of this State, and among
those that have been named for that important
post Of honor and responsibility, I have seen
the name Of no man who, in my humble judg-
ment, is better qualified than our citizen, MI.
Lewis. His requirements y e lawyer, his ex-
tensive practice in the highest Courts Of the
State, his great experience, and the respect he
commands at the Bar, entitle him to respect
and support over and above any other name
now before the people. Mr.. Lewis residence
among us, and the interest he has in the vel
fare and prosperity Of St. Landry, should alone
excite C local pride, and cause him to be sup
ported ~ rs
OF Judge Merrick, Of East Feliciana, I know
but little, and presume he is comparatively I'M
known to our citizens. He is represented as
q man Of handsome abilities, and one who
would do no discredit to the station. Indeed,
it is said that he would reflect credit; but he
lacks the age and experience Of Mr.. Lewis, and
resides in q part Of the State but little inter
ested in our welfare.
As to Mr.. Elgee, who is talked Of as a can
didate, it is no where to be found that he has
accepted any nomination or any call. He,
therefore, would not be considered a candidate
especially if he is deteated-yet will most likely
accept the station if the majority Of votes be
given him. Mr.. Elgee is o prominent lawyer,
yet We have to learn Of any very brilliant dis
plays Of oratory or unanswerable arguments in
his profession. He is, besides, a foreigner by
birth, an aristocrat, and SO great a lover of
his native soil, that a considerable portion of
every year is spent in Europe.
With these characteristics of Judge Merrick
and Mr.. Elgee, I would ask whether every citi-
zen of st. Landry should not vote for Mr..
Lewis. / have heard that Mr.. Lewis is un-
popular, and it may be that there are grounds
unpopularity /; but when ability is the test,
and the point upon which depends support or op-
willnot and should not intelligent men
throw aside their personal animosities and
in Office a mar Of acknowledged ability,
and one of our own citizens? Let us hope, then,
that Monday next will show that ST. Landry
appreciates Mr.. Lewis and has sustained him
handsomely as other portions of the State,
there is every reason to believe he will
be warmly supported. ar Jux1us.

New HAMrsHIRE.-Governor Metcalf was
'naugurated on the Eth inst. His message re
commends as little legislation as possible, the
encouragement of agriculture in the State as a
preventive Of western emigration, guarded
action representing corporate privileges, change
in regard to the public schools, and the estab-
iishment OF a State reform school.
The Governor also denounces the liquor
traffic as a nuisance, and recommends the pro-
hibitory law with limited discrimination. The
message is elaborate on the subject Of foreign
born influence, religion and politics, and is
strongly Native American. The repeal of the
Missouri Compromise and the Nebraska act
are emphatically denounced as a violation of
laith, and q great wrong on the North. The
message is strong on slavery and the liquor
traffic, and against foreign-born citizens hold
Office without q residence of twenty.one
years. ..,,r.. ... .
