Judge Law, Of Evansville. has
written letter to an old friend, one
Edward Harrick, in which he lays
down his opinions upon the Slavery
question The Judge says "The
times are d0mnaJfy ont u joint. .
This is very elegant language fo- a
candidate for Congress to use in a
political letter for publication, but il
must be rccollected that the letter was
written before his nomination. and at
a time when he thought Niblack had
the inside track. 1.-THE Judge thinks
the times donanaJiy out of joint now,
he will swear next October that they
are broken to everlasting smash. =
