has well said to get off the Cincinnati Platform
and take his stand on the Cincinnati Directory

and rendered effort on our side supertluous.
Promptly, but vaiuy, the Democratic State Com

dated the LecomptOn fraud and took their stand
by the side of Douglas; the People would be salts
fed with nothing less than all emphatic and une-
quivoeal condemnation Of the policy which had
cursed Kansas with Slavery and all who had been
its abettOrs. The Republicans have carried the

The equal balance Of parties in the Legislature
of Virginia on the question of giving or refusing
further aid to the unfinished railroad improvements
of that State has brought legislation almost to a
deadlock. Like several other recent State Con-
stitutions, the new Constitution of Virginia pre-
scTibes a limit to the session Of the Legislature,
which, though held but once i'll two years, cannot
be extended beyond ninety days except by two
ffths vote. The party opposed to further grants
for internal improvements after wasting the time
of the session in long debates, which the other
SIDE uncertain of the result, was not anxious to
bring to a conclusion finally insisted on suffering
the legislative term to expire without having passed
even the appropriation bills. Governor Wise,
however who is a great internal improvement
man, has come to the rescue by calling a new
session. The whole proceeding was somewhat
novel and peculiar. No sooner was the motion to
adjourn sine die passed by the House than two let
tiers were simultaneously handed to the Speaker
and the Clerk, inclosing proclamation of the Gov
ernor calling new session. This proclamation
was read on the spot just as the members were
dispensing, and was received with loud shouts by
the internal Improvement party. Governor Wise,
who was personally present in remote corner Of
the hall, was loudly called for; and, though he ad-
mitted that three regular messages and one extra
message were, perhaps, rather too much for athree
months session, he could not resist the temptation
of making a speech. He argued that three
months session once in two years, however it might
be adapted to the slaveholding, old fogy regime
he did not say this but lie implied twas quite
ont of the question for commonwealth just be-
ginning to put on all the beauty and robustness of
youth. What the result may be is uncertain.
Even Wise himself appears to have some misgiv-
ings. He admits that it is not an easy task now

A Lively Condition of Society.

charge of important official duties, for that al d
other departments of the Government, in tie
proposed new Territory of Arzonn, passed
through St Louis lately, en- route for Wash

little hope of improvement until the organza-
ton OF the Territory. The people are without

No less than eight men have been shot in the
Santa Cruz Valley in few months, without
even an attempt at investigation. Edward
Miles, respectable merchant, was shot down
IN his own house in Tuckson, on the second of
August without other provocation than his re.
fusal to pay an unacknowledged claim, and the
bloody assassin continued to walk the streets of
the town unmoested. MIR. Miles was shot in

An Elective Judiciary,

The country Is beginning to see how an Ell
ectlve Judiciary works, and is gradually coming
TO the opinion chat the system is bad ONE
When political bullies baIot-box suffers, riot
ers, &c., make Judges by nomination, and the
Judges thus made take " straw baIl' from the
class OF men who rule the Primary Meetings,
and with the understanding that the criminal
VIII Oreak bail and escape punishment, the
system is demonstrated.
Within few days since, in Tennessee, the
people voted for Chief Judge of the Supreme
Court. Judge Wright. the incumbent, was a
candidate, and his friends, it seems, having
some suspicious that some other candidate
might be voted for and as it is supposed in near-
Iy or unite all the counties, issued an anony.
nous handbill TO the voters, announcing as
something very startling, that a "cunningly
devised" scheme had just developed itself" to
defeat the Hon. Archibald Wright for Suprcn
Judge, This handbill declared that Judge
Walker was not candidate, when all of them
knew differently, and they got up the card to
tell against him at the polls. The trick was
dIsreputable enough, but it is only one of the
many schemes which enter into an Elective Ju.
dietary system. The New Orleans Bulletin
speaks OF this Tennessee manGuvre al follows:
"A trick as disreputable, as dishonest as was
ever resorted to by the smallest aud most un-
scrupu.ous politician for u seat in a borough
council, is conceived and executed on the very
lay OF the election, TO elect one candidate for a
Supreme Judgeshp and defeat another!"
we have suffered and are suffering, says the
New York Express, from this Elective system
u Inc State OF New York, aud our hope is, that
when the next constitutional Convention is
Ield, to see the whole nuisance abated and
bandoned. The existing practice has been
rIed and found failure. The power of abuse
xsts in the fact that the loosest of the politi-
lans make the candidates, and that at best
here is temptation to do wrong. In case
where there Is but one Judge, and his decision
nal the most momentous Consequences, may
Inge upon his judgment. How important then
hat he seould be place in position above temp
alton, and beyond all mere partizan influence.

holding conventions, especially in the border

thing more than speaking and resolving will

condition of affairs to the regular system adop-
tea oy the Northern Abolitionists, who seem TO

the presence of free negroes in the State
This latterls very undesirable element in
the State. and is increasing daily; we should
not be surprised if within two years, compuI-
sorry legislation should be resorted to 10 exile
