Maj. +. Nj. BRAxroN.-Though not resi-
dent Of the Seventh Congressional District,
and therefore having no voice at the polls IN
the selection Of its representative, VIC clnnot
but express the pleasure we feel, at seeing the
name OF Elliott NJ. Braxton so often presented
to the voters Of the district, as one which
should receive the nomination OF the c0nvcn-
ton, soon TO assemble in your city, as candI-
date to represent them in the next Congress.
Personally aod by reputation We have known
Major Braxton for many years, and we have
never known a man, combining more OF the
essential qualities of an efficient aud useful
representative than he. In the forum, the
Senate and the field, he has been fully tested
and tried and no body can say, be haa ever
been found wanting.
4 gentleman Of fine natural gifts, improved
by liberal education and dilipen. culture, a
debater earnest, ready and forcible, faithful al,
ways in the discharge of duty, of bound!ess
sympathy with his fellow men, amiable, digni-
fled, honorable, and browning an rreproacbabIc
moral life, by the graces OF christianity Illus
trated in his daily walk and conversation, it is
impossible to fud one upon whom, such an
honor could be more wortbily conferred.

HOMESTEAD LAW.-We have already mem
toned the decision of Judge Carson, OF the
County Court of Frederick Co.. in recent
case before him involving the Cons!itutionaity
of the Homestead LAW The decision concIud-
ed as follows:
"In the case now under consideration the
value of the entire property Of the defendant be
ing less than one thousand dollars, as appears
BY the report OF the appraisers, filed in thccsse,
and this law cXempting the sum oftwo thous-
and dollars from levy, seizure, garnisheeing
or sale under any execution, order or other
process, in addition TO the articles exempt from
levy or distress for rent by statue on the day
the present constitution of Virginia went into
effect. having been enacted subsequent to the
making OF the contract, does 10 this case St
riously affect the enforcement of the remedy
for The collection of the dcbt,the in force, and
cannot be reconciled with the constitution OF
theUnted States. 1t is therefore considered by
the Court that the Homestead Law, the benc-
fit Of which is claimed by the defendant, does in
its retrospective operation, not only impair the
obligation OF the contract between the parties
but utterly destroys the right OF the plaintiff
under it, and IS in conflict with the Constitu
ton Of tho United States. This proceeding is
therefore dismissed CLARKE Courier.
