RsrRmurfoH.- the feeling which ex-
lists in the State in relation to the massacre OF
Crabb's party at Cayorca, we should not be sur
urised il another expedition was fitted out for
tAeinvasion Of Sonora during the summer
There is deep and settled conviction in the
minds Of the people that our slaughtered coun-
trymen should be avenged, and nothing less
than the complete .subjugatiOn Of Sbnora viii
satisfy them There will be no difficulty in find
ing plenty Of men ready and willing to embark
in an expedition Of this kind; the only difficulty
to be apprehended is in raising the means to
properly ct it out. The Sonorans, doubtless.
supposed that the slaughter Of City or sixty I'M
armed prisoners would strike terror to the hearts
Of their friends and sympathizers, and efectual-
" prevent flbustering expeditions in future.
A greater mistake they could not have made.
The cruel massacre Of Crabb and his party. will
tend rather to arouse feeling for retributiOn,
than to deter othersfrom following in their foot
steps. tits reported, with what truth we can
not say, that an expedition is now being fitted
out on large scale, for the conquest of Sonora.

ELECTION or JUDGE.


Since seeing the experiment tried. we are
fully convinced thai the election Of Judges
By the people is bad feature in our Consti-
tuition. The late attempt at an election
here has proved il, but there are other and
more weighty objections. Mr.. James J..
Bartol, who was recently nominated for
Judge Of the Court Of Appeals in Maryland.
declined the honor, aud declared he would
not dishOnor the office By running for IL.
We think Mr.. Bartol was right, and in
taking such view, showed that he had one
qualification for the office. OF all officers,
a Judge should be the freest from bias and
partially. Where such an officer il elected
BY the people, il is impossible for him TO be
Influenced By his feelings. The purest man
upon earth could not be unbiased. II so,
he would be something more or less than
human. For instance, an important case
comes up for decision between A and Is.
The one opposed the election d the pre-
siding Judge 10 the best Of his ability, and
made every exertion in his power to secure
the election Of his opponent. Is il possible
for the Judge 10 do otherwise than to desire
the success d his friend and the defeat %
his enemy We think not--and vet il
conscience We might stand justified Tor The
strictest impartiality. A man with right
feelings will clease TO his friend-he can't
help il, aud Judges are but men.
! Power belongs TO the people,-they are
sosereigns but 20 conhde power 10 theiI
hands that must result 20 their injury, j,
like placing edge Tools ~ the hands Of chill
dren. The people. therefore, have no bust.
ness with the election 81 Judges. We would
like TO see that feature Of our Constitution
amended, and the great temptation removed
so potent TO lead an honest and just man as
tray. We know Of no instance where thii
has been the case, but until human nature i
entirely changed il will be the case, gainsa,
il who may. abingdon Trgiaian.
