Judge THOMPSON.

| We call attention to an article lii another
column in relation to the judicial election,
which appeared in the Staua,ton Spectator.
AS Judge Thompson and Mr.. Fultz the can
didates for this Office, are both old line Wings
no party Influence can be brought to bear
in the election but the candidates must re-
|ly for popular support upon their own per-
sonal merits and qualifications to discharge
the duties Of the position which they are
| seeking
Judge Thompson has presided over this
circuit for Twenty-Five or thirty years-he
has been tested and found fully capable both
as regards ability, promptness and untiring.
Industry, and the public interests require
that hs shall be retained. It will be seen
by referetice to the Spectators article that
Judge Thompson during theyear ending Both
Of August. 1859, decided more cases and
disposed of more business, civil and crimi-
nal, at law and in chancery, than any other
Judge in Virginia; that counting all of his
services in the year, he was longer in Court
than any other Circuit Judge in Virginia !:
and the dockets show decrease within the
year of POI cases-a diminution greater, by
fifty cases, than was made in any other Cir
cult ii the State. These facts are gathered
from official sources, and while they reflect
the highest credit upon Judge Thompson for
his indefatigable labor sfa earnest devotion
to the public interests, they should also teach
the people Of his Circuit to consider long ard
well before they decide to make change,
and thereby lese the services of faithful
officer who is proven by the official records

Southern Retaliation.

The following suggestion, by correspon-
dent Of The Richmond Enquirer, stands
prominent anon get many others for its new
ness and ingenuity Of its morality. we say
nothing but, if the Mosaic law now gov
erned the world. and Git for tat was the
right kind of thing, we certainly would
conse nt to its adoption.
Many measures have Of late been propo-
sed for retaliating upon the North. [ will
suggest One, which think will work we'll
in Practice. It is this: That the Iegisla-
ttre Of Virginia shall repeal all laws pro
hlbitihg the introduction Of negroes into tie
State for sale, and legalise the sale into sla-
very of free negroes. brought by. force Or
otherwise. from other States. The effect of
such law would be to offer bonus to North
ern traders to run off free negroes ,f,om the
North, thus changing the direction Of travel
on the underground railroad, and stopping
the present. drain upon our laboring popula-
ton.
Also, let the Legislature enact law pro.
viding that all free negroes found within the
State after the first of July next. shall be
sold into slavery for the benefit of the State.
She will then have thohey enongh for de-
fence, and all other purposes, There are
some 10000 free negroes now IN Virginia,
and at an average price Of 5000. they would
bring into the Treasury over $40, 900 900;
enough, and more than enough; to pay the
entire State debt, and pitt in the very best
condition of defence.
AS to the right Of Virginia To d6 this, II
does appear strange that any one can ques-
tion it, and at the same time pretend to j us-
tify slavery at all. There viii be nd viola
ton OF State faith, as they have notes and
time to quit the State; and certainly no one
can argue that Virginia has given any
pledge that they shall always live here free.
Again, I contend that the same moral law
BY which we hold our negroes as slaves, JUS
tifes as in nsaking slaves of all negroes upon
whom wo can lay our hands, wherever they
may be found. And we have now near half
million around us. What need then of
|re-opening the african slave trade, while
the Anaertcuz slave trade is so much more
convenient and better? Only legalize the
sale within the State, aud we may trust to
Yankee capidity and enterprise to supply us
With just as many slaves as we want or can
pay fof.

FORT BRECKENRIDGE ATTACKED BY INDIANS.
THE REVOLUTION IN SONORA.
correspondent of The 81. Louis Republican, writs
ing from Tucson Oct. 2 says:
=" Fort Breckenridge was visited on the morning Of
the 18th ut about clock BY one hundred and kfty
Indians, o. marsudng expedition. They drove OF
all the stock at the post excepting three horses and ona
steer. The latter well rddled with lance wounds.
This IVES all done under the eye Of the and
he troops who powerless TO offer resistance Iha
settIes generally nuch reoiced at this event. and
indulge in the deusive hope that the War Department
will awake to realizing sense OF our defenseless and
exposed condition, when it lie seen that military garn-
son. established expressly for their protection, can not
oply offer them assistance but Ia unable 70 success.
fully repel an attack upon the post itself.
"Lieut. Cook the Commandant, immediately
dispatched courier to Fort Buchanan, asking for
assistance. The messenger, while on his way met
Lieut. Randall, let Dragons, with 30 men, who was
proceeding 10 make reconnaissance OF the Pinery OF
the Pina MounsiIs for a wsgon road TO Fort Breck-
iDridge. Upon learning Of the descent upon Fort
Brt ckinridee Lieut. Randall at once proceeded 10 tho
assistance Of the garrison. He arrived at the post on
Saturday morning and taking ten days ratons for his
men followed the indians.
Nothing has yet been heard of the movements OF
the revolu ionary army in Sonora. A runn2r has
reached US 10 the effect that Pefquera was surrounded
10 The City Of Hermoslo with his men, but the report
is not credited.
"No movement that requires the exercise Of bravery
In its accomplishment may reasonably be expected from
the Consei vatives. Pesquera has the reputation OF
possessing great courage allied TO military ski Of the
first order and it ia very unlikely that the Church par
ty, with their raw recruits, will attempt any bold
present. With overwhelming odds az ainst
him. such course might be adopted, but the forces
from Arizona snd Northern Sonora could not have
Joined with their Yaqui allies and the latter are not
likely TO ate mpt the seizure of the Governor before
