From Washington,
literature

WASHINGTON, aug 3l.-The business which more
particularly occupies the administration, pertains to
our foreign relations, proui' emily including those
with the Central American States and Mexico.
Notwithstanding that General Jerez has given as
surance that be is authorized TO make such explain
atoms concerning the course of Nicaragua, as will
be preliminary to his reception, to treat on the
pending matter between this and that republic, he
mas failed to the obstacle to his reception in
a diplomatic capacity.
The administration has not yet made selection
of Minister to Paraguay from among the several
candidates.
In addition to the national vessels ordered to be
sent to Paraguay, negotiations are pending for the
use and purchase Of steamers Of light drsught,
owned by private individuals. Officers are con-
stsntly being ordered to their designated commands.
The detachment of marines to be sent out will be
far more formidable than heretofore announced
The object is to prepare for the worst the part of
Lopez and to place the expedition beyond all pos
,ibility of failure.
Strong efforts are being made for the removal Of
Mr. Davidson, o s Marshal Of the Northern Dis
trict of Illinois, and the appointment of the editor
Of the Chicago Herald in his place. There is but
ittle if any doubt, that this change will be made.

The ELECTION Of supreme Judge.


We are satisfied from rumors that reached Us
yesterday that combination Of the opposition has
been attempted for the purpose Of elecfing Judge
WALKER to the Supreme Bench. We had hoped that
in the election Of high Judicial officers, political
influences would never be allowed to interfere with
The calm, unprejudcsd judgment Of the people
We had hoped that the Judges Of the Supreme
COart might be selected With reference alone to
tbeir qualifications and ability and not with refer
ence to their political Affiliations. We have studi-
Ousy avoided any exhibition Of party feeling in the
contest for Supreme Judge, and have discouraged
any organization Of the Democratic party with
view to the election Of Judge WRIGHT, although his
eminent legal attachments, his superior quali6ea-
tons, and his pure and spOtless character, would
have justified any effort that might have been made
in his behalf But We now learn with regret that
secret agencies have been at work for several weeks
throughout The State to unite the entire opposition
vote on Judge WALKER and to draw as many Of tie
Democratic party as possible into his support An
attempt has been made to take advantage Of the
msgnanimiiy which has been exhibited by the Dem
Oeralic party, in refusing to make party question
to defeat the distinguished jurist who, by Governor
HARRIS appointment, fills place upon the Supreme
Bench, and thus obtain the appearance Of party
triumph. We are happy to see that the intelligent
and fight-tbinking members of the opposition have
refused to participate in this mean and contempt
bic trick. We hope that the miserable partisan ar
ti6ee will fail; We hope for the honor of on
opponents themselves, that majority Of then
Will spurn the dishonOrable proposition. Blu
the fact that the attempt has been made is an indi
cation Of the character Of portion of the part
with whom we have to contend. Whether tn
scheme is successful or not, it will be & warnin
always to be on our guard against the frauds of a
