Governor Bullock TO appoint him gave much dis
nized as one OF the foremost lawyers in the country
being also man OF fine literary attalnments.
Judge Hoars name appeared in the FIRST draft OF
President Grants Cabinet, and his elevation to this
important and responsible position was received
with general favor throughout the country, especially
by the legal profession. lie soon however became
very unpopular at the capital, particularly with the
members OF the Senate, who were generally treated
with altogether more incivty than they conceived
to be their due when consulting with him In refer
ence TO the disposition of the Government patron
age. This course the part OF the Attorney
General bore its legitimate fruits when his name
was sent In to the Senate by the President on De-
cember 10, 1869, as Associate Justice OF the Su-
preme Court Of the United States. The argument
used by his opponents against his confirmation was
that he was not resident OF the circuit to which he
would have to be allotted, an argument which APP
piled with equal force to the case OF Judge Brad
ley, OF New Jersey, but which, in his case,
was not avaied OF. The nomination hung fire in
the Senate for some time but was finally disposed
OF on February 3. when 1t was rejected by a ma
jority of nine votes. The New England Senators
voted in his favor body; but the Southern men,
bers were almost unit against him, and these,
with the whole Democratic vote, and a large num-
ber from the West were sufficient to settle his fate
Since his rejection by the Senate Justice OF the
Supreme Court, the AttorDey-General has become
and more restless, and his final resignation will
not create much surprise throughout the country.
His successor in the Cabinet is the Hon. Thomas
Ackerman, Of Georgia.
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1870-06-16

Commissioner James Balm was nominated
after a prolonged contest, and it is to his
credit that his success is mainly due to his
prolonged military services, first as private
and subsequently as a captain. For Clerk of
the Orphans Court, Joseph @. Tittermary,
who also rendered faithful service during the
war, was nominated, and, judging by his past
personal, military, and political record, he
will prove not only an unexceptionable but
popular nominee.
For Register of Wills, William M. Bum
was nominated. He is the only private
soldier who has received a nomination in this
city for a decidedly lucrative Office, and this
circumstance may tell in his favor. AS he is
still young man we hope that he may be
able to amend in future his legislative record.
On the whole, the Republican party has
passed through the trying ordeal of its dele
gate elections and conventions quite as sue
cessfully as the most sanguine partisan could
have expected. A better system may give
better fruits, but the ticket as presented, with
a few exceptions, is decidedly above the
average, and the people cannot reasonably
anticipate better one until the whole busi-
ness of making nominations is thoroughly re-
formed
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1870-06-16

has been announced. In the Fourteenth d;s
trict John Cloud, one of the most notorious
members of the last Legislature, has been
renominated. The reelection of Cloud will
be scandal to the Republican party and a
disgrace to the people of the Fourteenth
district and we hope sincerely that the de-
cent men of all political opinions will unite
to secure his defeat. In the Fifteenth district
Adam Albright, also a member of the last
Legislature, has been put up again. Inde-
pendent voters, who wish to see an improve
ment in the Legislature, will combine to keep
him at home. In the Sixteenth district Will
liam F. Smith, a member of Select Council
aspires to be the successor of M. G. Hong. 1t
is said that in this instance Smith practically
means Hong, and if such be the case it would
be worth while for the citizens of the Fifteenth
district to consider whether Mr.. Smith
is the best man they can find to represent
them. In the Seventeenth district, Watson
Comfy, with whose record the public is fami-
har has managed to secure denomination.
1t is scarcely necessary to say that more
unfit man than Comfy for any Office of trust
OF honor cannot be found. If he is not de-
feated, the citizens of the Seventeenth dis
trict will be directly responsible for all the
mischief he may do next winter at Harris
burg. James Miller, of the Seventeenth dis
trict, is one of the very few members of the
last Legislature who passed through the
ordeal unscathed, and the denomination given
him yesterday was proper compliment.
Such is the legislative ticket. 1t is a very
great improvement over that of last year, and,
with the exceptions we have mentioned, it
is worthy of the cordial support of Republi-
can voters. With regard to the names on the
black list, only one course is proper-they
should be relentlessly scratched, and no con-
siderations of party expediency ought to in
huence any one who has the slightest regard
for the welfare of the city or State, or who
desires to see the Legislature purified, and
the disgraceful reputation it has obtained
done away with for the future, to give them
support in any shape. If the respectable
men of all parties will only take a decided
stand with regard to this matter, reform
can be effected; and it rests with the citizens
of Philadelphia to say at the ballot-box
whether they are willing any longer to coun-
tenance the outrageous proceedings that have
characterized the sessions of the Legislature
year after year.

THE JUDICIAL NOMINATIONS.

AMONG the nominations made yesterday,
none were of more Importance than those of
the Judicial Convention, which was called
upon to select two candidates for judges of
the Court of Common Pleas, and one for
Judge of the District Court. The high char
acter of tho judiciary of Philadelphia has
always been matter for congratulation, and
the gentlemen for whom the votes of the
Republican party are asked will ably sustain
the reputation of our courts.
Judge Paxson, since he has been on the
bench, has distinguished himself by his
ability, and he has given general satisfaction.
His nomination was proper recognition of
his past services.
T. X. Finletter, Esq, who is associated
with Judge Paxson on the Common Pleas
ticket, and James Lynd, ESQ.,, the nominee
for the District Court Judgeship, are both
lawyers of high standing and proved ability,
who will give dignity and honor to the bench.
The judiciary ticket may therefore be pro-
nounced very good one, and it deserves and
will doubtless receive the hearty support of
the entire Republican party.

The Sweetwater enterprise. (Sweetwater, Tenn.) 1869-187?, 1870-09-15
THE OCCASION.

The immediate reason or excuse for the
declaration of war by France, was the re-
fusal Of the King of Prussia to accede to
the demands of France in relation to the
candidacy Of Leopold, Prince of Hohen-
zollern, to the throne of Spain, and an al
legged insult made to Count Benedetti, the
French Ambassador at the court of Prus-
sia, by the Prussian King.

This renders probable that the Prus-

flank, abandon their march to Paris and
diverge nOrthward to attack him.
Aug. 3lst.-It is reported that battle
is now going on between Mcmahon and
the Prussiap army. Ten thousand troops
from the interior arrive 10 Paris daily and
are sent to reinforce Mcmahon, whose ar
my is estimated at 100000 men.

the Meuse at Stenay and pushing on to
Montmedy; collision between him and
Frederick Charles is expected.
Prussian reports claim victory over
Mcmahon at Beaumont.
The French claim a complete victory
for Bazaine at Courcelles. .l at
A general engagement is undoubtedly
at hand which will give decisive results.
The Prussians appear to have cast oil up
on the hazard Of the die, and if defeated
it is difficult to foresee how they can re-
treat. If successful, they will have still
the other French armies to encounter. 1t
is more than probable, however, that de-
cisive battle is about to take place.
Sept. 2.-London kilograms say that
the battle of Thursday resulted in deci-
sive victory for McMahOn, who defeated
the Prussians utterly, capturing thirty
guns and many prisoners.
Bazaine is said to have made sudden
attack on the Prussian rear from Montme-
dy, and after an obstinate fight routed
them and drove them to the Belgian from

30th of August to the lst of September,
