Judge LindIey Taken Down.

The severest article that has ever ap-
peared against any Of the Lecompton candi-
dates in this county, was published, yester-
day, against Charles Lindley, in the Califor-
uia Express. We are sorry that we have not
space to transcribe it entire. 1t is the more
effective when we consider that it is his own
party organ which condemns him. Strong
indeed must be the conviction of Lindley' y's
entire unftness for the position to Which he
aspires, when the organ of his own party
becomes the vehicle of denouncing him as a
low demagogue, nieah trickster, and foul
slanderer
We make the following extracts from the
article in the Express. 1t is in the form of a
card by James Haworth, Esq.
! do know that, whilst a
candidate for District Judge, knowing that
the number of settlers far exceeded that of
the grant holders, he made servile bid for
their support; by assdi'ihg them, individual.
ly, IL his button hole;" interviews, that if
he We're elected he woud be their friend
tile Settlers Judge. do know that he has
told laboring then thdt they never had It
friend upon the beneh--but eleGt hilh, for
his sympathies were with them, and they
@otld be all fight. do know that, to Sc.
cure his election, he stopped to such tricks as
ought to mantle even has cheek with the
burning blush of shame; that he Made
pledges, either positive or implied, that rem
dered it impossible for him to sit as an i'm
partial Judge. He pros
tituted his Judicial position to the gratifea-
tion of mean vindietive and and. malicious
Democrat uptn principle ard acknowledge
the importance of party discipline, owe no
such allegiance to the organization as can
compel lie to do violence to my conscience
and commit wrong upon society by assist
ing in the elevation to office of man whom
| believe unprincipled, dishonest and totally
unfit. | would say to the
Democracy, if you wish to purify the party;
and rebuke unserupulousness and professional
office seekers in Your ranks; vote against
ChaFles Lindley to the members Of all 9th
er parties, If your aim is to secure the selec-
tion of good, capable, honest officers, do not
be duped and deceived by his whining ap
peals to your sympatliles-the tears lie Sheds
are crocodile tears.
The above is but a sprinkling OF tie de-
nunciation which the Express has been the
means of heaping upon its own Candidate
at the same time that his name is at the head
of his columns.
If his own organ has no confidence in him,
why should we2

to has been sent us for publication as an ad-

pohdent of the Bulletin concludes a commu-
nicatiOn thus:
As Black Republican of the darkest hue,
| do not like Mr.. Randolph's slight tincture
of flibustersm but am willing to fOrego
all such considerations, if, by SO doing, we
can secure his legal ability and integrity to
the use of the State If, during the admin
istfations of Bigler and johnson, the State
had had an Attorney of the capacity
and integrity of Randolph, she would not
have been flooded with illegally issued scrip
as an evidence of an illegally contracted
debt, nor would the State have been robbed
of the 100000 appropriated to pay the ex-
pense of recovering eschtated estates that he
would have known had never esvheated ;
nor would Carrothers judgments have been
allowed in the manner they were by Hast
ings and Lull None of this class Of men
could bamboozle Randolph. If thereis but
one drop of the blood Of John of Roanoke"
or two of that of the native queen Pocahon-
tas, coursing in bis veins, 1t would be quite
sufficient to cause him to spurn official steal
ing.
