The Fourth Judicial 1Nssrtes-S0snt"a-
s,on Of Hon. Edward q. Hsmil".

We print elsewhere the proceedings OF
the Democratic Convention for the Fourth
Judicial District, held at st. Cloud on the
10Th instant, pursuant to the recommends
ton OF the State Central Committee.
From these proceedings il will be seen that
the presen. iDcumben, OF the Bench Of that
District was nominated az the Democratic
candidate by reclamation. This is CON-
plment thoroughly deserved by Judge
HAxiis. On the resignation Of his Office
by the gentleman chosen at the general cleo
ton OF 1857, Judge HAMLis, at the solicit
ta,ion Of the bar Of the District, gave up
lucrative business, and accepted the appoint
ment rendered him, without his desire or
knowledge, by Gov. SHELLEY. The high
opinion which had been formed Of his legal
ability and mpartiality, by his friends be-
fore bis appointment, has been more than
confirmed by his administration Of justice
during the year past. He has both the
capacity and the will 10 make Judge 81

need not express the hope that the Democ-
racy, and people generally, Of the Fourth
District, will rally 10 his triumphant SUP

The Toronto &c. W. Leader says:

1he Toronto ". W. Leader says:
Al the very moment when the feelings Of the
Protestants in Upper Canda have been greatly
aroused at an alleged attempt on the part of
certain high dign tsries Of the Roman Catholic
Church to seduee young unmarried lady from
her home and her religious faith, new incident
has arisen calculated partially TO distract their
attention from the subject, and 10 divert IL into
another channel. In this new affair, . reverend
gentleman, \ distiDg uished member Of the Free
Church Of Scotland, and one who Is privileged
TO add ID. d. to his name, Is one Of the princi.
pal sctors--the other ling female, the wife
Of . gentleman also In holy orders, whose al.
fections he has seduced, and who Is now living
IN th 10 city Ia state Of concubinage with her
debsucher.
The story shows scandalous elopement
from England to Canada Of the Rev. DIR.
HUxPHREY, Of the Free Church Of Scotland
with the wife Of the Rev. DIR. CUMMINGS, of
the same church. The pair ran away from
Chettenham and embarked from Liverpool.
The clergyman whose wife was seduced, was
heavy creditor Of the reverend rascal, and
thus the former was not only robbed Of his
money, but also of his happiness. A pho
tograph Of this scamp was sent to the New
York Police, and the runaway pair were
traced to Toronto, where they passed under
the name Of HUNTER. DR.. HuMPHREY left
vile and six children, and Mrs. CUMMINGS
left q husband and eight children. lie left
his family penniless, even borrowing bis
wife's watch and what pin.money she had
on some slight pretence.
