1 q. s. SENAT0RsHrP.- following is extracted
/ from the Washington correspondence Of the New
] York Times, under date Of 26th ultimo:
The election Of a United States Senator from Lon
isana TO succeed Mr. Benjamin after the 4th OF March
next, is expected To come of on the fourth Monday
in January. Since Mr.. Douglas recent visit to New
Orleans, It is rnmored that Mr.. Sdel has abandoned
the fortunes OF his colleague and avors the cleo
ton OF Hon. John n. Sandidge now member Of the
House. It is very evident that Mr. Soule is the favor
lite at New Orleans and that the various elements
opposition TO Sdell throughout the State are likely
4 to unite in 6onle's support. Under these crcum
stances the chances Of the election Of the latter
decidedly good.
Whatever objections may be urged against Mr.. sli
dell politically, otherwise, one thing is evident
He seldom or never deserts his friends. This is
most noble and excellent trait in his character, ai
!. would adorn any character; and it has given hin
much Of the tremendous strength he has SO lonl
welded in this State. Hence, we conclude the Wash

which to base his writing. However, these fedora

This curious subject which, 1t - SAID, has
never been clearly settled by legislative enact
ments or judicial decisions, either in England
or the United States, was recently brought be-
fore the Court of Common Pleas in N. YORK,
by one Jso. SHOOK, an immigrant from Ger
many or Holland. 1t seems that the name OF
SHOOK, in it's original language signifies PIKE,
and that when the bearer Of the name came to
this country. some years since, thinking the
English ea uivalent more euphonious than his
Teutonic patronymic, he embarked In busl-
aess here under the appellation Of PIKE. But
in process of time doubts were cast upon the
legality of this translation, and to set every
thing right. Mr. SHOOK came before the Court
on a petition for authority to denominate him.
self by the name of his choice. The result Is
set forth in a learned and interesting exposition
of the law. or rather of the absence OF law, on
the subject by Judge DAILY. According 10
his decision, there is no law to prevent any
man from changing his name as he may de-
sire; and the usual application to the Legisia-
ture or the Courts is only matter OF con-
yenience on account of the greater publicity
and influence thus given to the proposed
change.
