IGNORANT AND INCOMPETENT MAGrs-
TRATHs.-To the Editor Of The Euentag Sfar:-It
cannot be denied that appointments have been
made fer years past of persons in this city and
District who are totally unfit to act as Justices
OF the peace; and IL is not true, as not unfre-
quently said by parties who are probably undulz
preJ udiced on the subject, that such Ignorant
and incompetent justices" for the most part
are of the colored race, if not so exclusively.
Candor, l think, will admit that there are at
this time, acting under their commissions a.
magistrates, colored men who not unfit for
their Official duty on account of their Ignorance
ard incapability. But / would respectfully in
quires and the inquiry seems not unworthy of
the attention Of the Long investigation commit
tee, now in session, sehO are 10 blame for such
Objectionable appointments Most assuredly mot
the President OF the United States or the Gov
error of the District alone; but the citizens of
the District, NJ. C.'s and others, who recon-
nj for such positions individuals whom tI>y
knOso and ioa5 kn0lcn to Dc nOt0ri0sIy de fceaf
IN moral anu lntellcctual QUALIFICATIONS. 4 have
been informed by a reliable and respectable
citizen (whose name / will give up if 50 re-
quested by competent authority that during
the administration of Mr.. Fillmore he was in
the very act of sending in the nomination of a
man, utterly snfit for the position, residing in
the eastern portion of this CITY, for the office of
magistrate, when he (the PresGent) was only
prevailed upon at my informant's suggestion to
withhold the nomination until further inquiry
could be made respecting the character and
standing Of the person above referred to. And
II Is positive fact that the names OF gentlemen
OF elevated position and highly respected In this
community placed their names coBspicuously
on that mans Recommendation, to the great |
surprise OF many intelligent and respectable
ciuzens. who afterwards became ace TAINTED |
with the tact BCt LAS the practice Eeen dis |
contnntd In the Present day, or lately Of igno-
rant and Incompetent persons being recon- |
mendea for the once of justice Of the peace |
by members OF Congress and other gentlemen |
