Thero aro many circumstances about tho oloo-

tho issue, Of which tlloro la but ono opinion but
In regard to tho duty and noccaslty for voting.
LII tho first place, 1t soemH scarcely to bo under
etood that all five Of our Circuit JudgoB nro to
bo olootet, since such construction Of tho Con-
etitutton ia comparatively recent. In tho noxt
place. thero ia a. gonoral impression that as
thoro is only ono tiokot In tho fold, consisting
Of the present Circuit Judges, there is
no necessity for polling large vote,
aud poopla might Just as wclf atay
away from tho polls aa not, It is OF tho utmost
concern tlat this impression slonld DO removed.
Tho Importance Of the present election is pro-
clsoly equivalent to tho importance Of having IN
honost md ablo Judiciary. THO Judges to DO
cloctod noxt Monday hold their Offices six years.
1t has boon agreed with surprising unanimity
among tho PROSE, the political parties, tho law
yers, md tho people, that tho only safo COURSE
to guard agatust the danger OF incapaoisy or cor
tho presont time, Is to xe~cleos tho aro
gontiomon, ,-McsBrs. Rogers, Williams, Tree,
booth, and Farwoll,- who are now tho
Circuit Judges. No opposition ticket
has, therefore, boon put into tho fold, aud but
ono mau, Sam Ashton, is disposed to contest tho
election. Horoiu lioB tic danger. If tho re-
spectacle people Of the city and county ahall res
mnin away from tho polls under tho conviction
TINT our five Judges will certainly DO olectod, it
is not at Ill impossible TINT sam Ashton will ba
ahlc to drum up enough votos to dofoat ono Of
these candidates. Suppose for instance, that
tho public apathy, which wo layo reasonably ac-
counted fos, shall keep down tho whole voto Of
the county to, say, 800. al TINT 11r. Ashton will
need to do, in that caso, is to rally tho
bummors in couple Of wards to soeuro enough
votes to dofoat whichovor Of tho tlyo candidates
Williams, Rogers, Treo, Booth, or Farwo1--
| shall rocoivo tue smallest number Of votcs. It
is not necessary for us to ropoat that this would
bo pulltc calamity, from which tho intorests Of
! Chicago and Cook County would be likoly to
Ruffor moro or less for tho noxt ak yoara. AL
! respectable people coneedo aH much. It must bo

for ovory man to tako the timo noxt Monday to go

caao Of hot1y-contosted general oloctionB, and
| tho time and trouble will bo insignificant conf
pared to the Importance OF tho result. It IL
necessary to keep in mind that there is real

1ASHANTEE WAR,

According to the accounts of correspon-
dents with the expedition against the Asian
tees, the British have met with an unpleasant
reverse. 1t seems that, on the 18th of August
the Rattlesnake and Argus proceeded to Clar-
ma Bay. An attempt was made to induce the
King Of Calma to become an ally of the Eng
lish; he refused actively to assist, but remark
ed that 1.-THE Ashantees are On the other side
of the river; when you come in, come close
on my side of the river" The next day an
expedition was made up the river in two gigs
in tow of steam pinnacle. The boats kept
on King Calmas side; but on rounding sharp
point they came suddenly face to face with over
1000 natives, who instantly opened fire.
The gigs were riddled with bullets. The
boats returned to their ships, which bombarded
and burnt the town. 1t had been determined
to occupy the deserted Dutch fort of Clarna.
The cutter of the Rattlesnake which was sent
to do this capsized in the surf, but the crew
reached shore in safety. They were, how
ever, intercepted by the enemy before they
could reach the fort, and were driven to the
water the survivors were obliged to swim to
the boats for safety.
