WIN. A. SEAY, Eso.-Absence from
our post, from indisposition last week,
prevented rs from noticing the an
nouncement of this gentleman's candi-
dalton for the District Judgeship.
We have not had like our neighbor the
pleasure of close personal intimacy
with Mr.. Seay, but from pleasant
acquaintance, and universal opinion,
We doubt not he fully deserves the
high encomium bestowed upon him,
and that the people Of the District
would be extremely fortunate in secur.
ing the services of q Judge as upright
and able as he would prove.
