There has been considerable excitement ID rsf-
erence to the election Of Supreme Judge, and the

fThe friends of the several candidates for Judge
Of the Supreme Court, in all they have written and
said, have agreed that this election ought 10 turn
on the qualifications and merits of the asprants,
and have united in condemnng all attempts TO
bring the influence Of party TO aid 10 prejudice
The claims of either or any Of the candidates.
The friends OF MIR. Adams, on consultation, de-

names Of the candidate. en- the party tickets, was

particular in this respect if theywish to defeat the
eerIupaonists and political renegades who make
.o-day desperate effort to get possession Of the
County Court, that they may cover up the frauds
already perpetrated by Hackney & Co., and pre- |
