The Marshall County Republican comes
to our table regularly its appearance indi-
Gates spirit of unusual energy and persc-
verence, and its editorials are written in a
vigorous, pointed style. Its editor, in the
last number, says that it has now nearly
completed its first year, and calls for more
support; we hope the citizens of Marshall
county will unanimously respond to the call.
Mr. Mattingly, the proprietor, has shown an
undaunted spirit in bull ling up such pa
per as the Republican in the face of his loss

III an election of Judges had been reg
nlarly ordered by the Governor, or rather,
if he had avowed no determination to pre-
vent the people from eleeting, We should
have thought, as we have heretofore stated,
that the best policy would have been to
make no nominations, but vote without
reference to party for two COOL men. But
the uncertainty produced by the Cover
nor's conduct will paralyze popular action
without some such effort as that contem-
plated in the above call. If the people do
not have a general understanding of the
state of affairs, and of their right to elect,
they will not vote: aud that understan ling
they will not be likely to get without
convention, whence will go out thousands
to proclaim it in all parts of the State
We hope, therefore, that our contemporaries
will take this matter in hand and urge
their counties to come up to the State
Fair prepared to act in convention with
their friends in this matter of election judi
ges. We may aid here, that there is no
statute which requires an election TO be or
dered in the case of vacancies on the
Bench-so that Gov. Wizards refusal to
order cannot effect the validity of the e.
lection, il one is held. Ii invalid at all, it
must be for other reasons Therefore there
is no. occasion to wait for his Excellcncv's
wits to settle to such clearness as will
enable him to see that in keeping the APP
pointment of Judges to himself he is act
ing very little like Governor, and very
much like spoiled child.--lad. Jour.

The Progress of Pro-Slavery Desp0tism.
1t is fact that ought to fill the heart
of every true American citizen with alarm,
that the two highest official authorities of
the nation=the Executive and the Judici-
.ary-decree that the Federal Constitution
recognizes the nationality of involuntary,
human servitude, and that slavery CON
sttutionally exists in every territory in the
Union. ~ als
In the Dred Scott decision-one Of the
most infamous carnations from the judi
ciary of any civilized eountry--it is held
that slavery has rights in all the territories,
and even in the Free States. That decis-
ion, in one startling announcement, virtu-
ally legalizes slavery from Canada to the
Gulf of Mexico, and from the Atlantic to
the Pacific, and the reserved rights of the
States, so jealously maintained in times
past, are rendered sheer mockery. 1t
gives to the Shareholder the right to take
his human property" in the Free States,
and throws over him the protection of the
Constitution in any territory in which he
may see fit to settle either temporarily or
peihlanentlV .t
And the President eager to accept their
construction of the Constitution, and anx-
ious to second measure of such advan-
tagc to the Shareholders who elected him,
lays down the same monstrous doctrine,
in his recent letter to the forty Connecticut
gentlemen who demonstrated against his
policy in Kansas, declaring that it is a
mystery to him that anybody should have
doubted its soundnesSl
Titus, good people of the Free North and
West, are we gradually having forced upon
us the doctrine ofthe priority OF the rights"
of slavery in the nation. This is what
the modern Democracy is doing. But
one step more is required to render our
Republic slave-holding dcspotiSm.- CHI
