The Kellogg Casey judicial system
in New Orleans is attended with pc
culiar difficulty. There is one class Of
criminals whom it is almost impossible
to try-the. Judges. Jacob Hawkins,
Judge of the Supreme Court, was in
dicted some months ago for embezzline
$500, and w. w. Mccullough, NUM-
cipal Judge of the Fourth district, is
under Indictment for murder. The
people are waiting for them to try each
other. Although Hawkins is decidedly
prejudiced in his own case against the
prosecution, he might adopt the latest
doctrine and try himself, nOtwithstand-
ing.-NelU York Sun.

From the louisville courier-JOurnal.

WASHINGTON, Dee. 1.-THE Senate
considered Mr.. Williams nomination
to-day, but did not confirm him. The
appointment is unusually Objectionable
to the Republican as well as to Demo-
cratic Senators, who think the Presi-
dent ought to have picked out some
able jurist for 50 important a position.
But the Republicans feel that to reject
Williams is like a vote of want of con-
fidence in the President, and involves
an issue which they do notliketo make.
This view, and the pressure of party
discipline, it is thought, viii carry MIR
Williams through the Senate. But it
is a hard dose for the Republicans to
swallow. There is a rumor tonight
that he is to be withdrawn.

STILL THE ANXIOUS SEAT.

FROM the CINCINNATI SOlihlCICidl'
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-The Senate
Judiciary Committe held meeting to-
day, and again considered the Williams
nomination. No conclusion was
reached. Senator Edmunds, the Chair
man of the committee, was strong in
his opposition to the nomination. The
committee think they can finally agree
ON the proper course to pursue, by to-
morrow. Meanwhile public sentiment
in this vicinity seems to be wearing
around in favor of Williams.
From the st. Louis Republican.
WASHINGTON, Dec. l0.-The rumor
that the nomination will be withdrawn
is persistently reiterated, but there is
the best authority for stating that the
President is firm in his determination
to force the Senate to confirm Mr.. VIII
