A gentleman writing US from Cumber-
land county on business, thus refers to one
of the duties to devolve on the approach
ing Legislature:
Judge Thomas n. Frazier has been
long and well known to the writer, and to
this section of the State. No man stood
higher as an upright and honest lawyer
and worthy citizen. | think it should f4l |
among the early duties of the next Logis-
lature TO expunge from the records the
blight attempted 10 be thrown over his fair
fame by his Impeachment, and the restora-
ton of his just rights and privileges as
citizen. Who ever heard, before, Of a
Judge being expelled from the bench, and
the citizens of the State forever deprived
Of his services because Of an erroneous de-
cisioa? and, If erroneous, who supposes
the decision was corruptly made by Thos.
n. Frazier? Is it not the duty Of the
press TO bear this case in mind?
We endorse the sentiment of our cor.
respondent, and earnestly hope the Leg
islalure will do all that is within lis pow.
er to remove the disabilities imposed upon
Judge Frazier. His character as an up
right Judge and an honest man, has not
been furnished by the infamous conviction
OF partisan tribunal for the unworthiest
of purposes; but his disabilities tecEni, ally
remain, and should be removed al the
earliest moment.

The smoke of the animated contest for
the Mayoralty candidacy before the con-
vention of Monday has passed away, and
the public can see clearly. The defeated
aspirants, without an exception that we
have heard, acquiesce gracefully and
cheerfully, and manifest laudable zeal
for the public interest This is as it should
be, and 10 behalf of the community we
take pride in commencing their conduct
in the premises.
The nominee, X. J. Morris, Esq is one
of our worthie5t citizens. The office will
seek him, and his administration, it may
safely be predicted, will be judicious and
economical. He will bring to the discharge
of its duties, considerable experience as a
municipal legislator, and the entire cons
fdence of his felloW-citizens in his up.
rightness, frmness and independence.
When it became manifest that no one Of
the gentlemen who had canvassed their
respective claims before the ward meetings
and the public generally, could sufficiently
concentrate the Conservative vote, SO as TO
secure an election by the people, it was
determined by the convention TO select
some one whose name had not been en-
tangled in the contest; and the choice
could not have fallen on one more suitable
in every respect than Mr.. Morris.
1t is almost certain he will have one or
more opponents. Oar friends should not
rely on his strength and popularity, how
ever 1t is their duty to organize thorough
ly in every word, as if there was doubt of
his election. As matters now stand, the
election of good men to offices is always
opeH to doubt unless vigorous efiorJ is
maintained to the last. Let this be borne
in mind

Referring TO the death of Hon. JOhn

He was rather a politician than states.
man, and left no enduring monuments of
his long public career.
In both respects is the above remark
singulsrly untrue. Our Cincinnati CO.
temporary is either ine1cusahly ignorant
of the history Of Mr.. Bell as public man,
or criminally malignant towards the
memory of the illHstrious dead.
