Election OF Judges.

The Legislature VIII, today, meet III
joint assembly, for the purpose of elect-
ing Judges of our Supreme Court for
the next year. BY a large majority,
the proposed changes'in OIL judiciary
system, have been rejected and The
Aumber of Judges heretofore had, are
10 be retained. Without question, the
present incumbents who have served
faithfully, and efficiently, and accepta-
bly,, will be reelected. But there is
one vacancy. caused by the resignation
of Judge Peck on his accepting the of
flee of Governor of the State. And
this is the only question in regard TO
this election, which cal possibly de-
velope any difference of opinion. Of
course we knew that propositions OF
change in the system, and discussions
almost intcrninable, would arise, but
we rightly judged that in the end, the
old, tried system would be retained.
Considering this probability we sug-
gested that Rutland and Bennington
counties, should bring forward a candi-
date for the vacant position, so that the
suitors in the courts of southwestern
Vermont might be the better accomo-
dated. The fact that they were not
we'll accommodated in the former loca.
ton of the judges was apparent. The
suggestion was felt to be n sensible on
and the people of that section are act
ing upon it. They will present th'
name of Judge Dunton, of Rutland, a
the election to-day, and the people o
quite a large section will be gratitied II
the assembled wisdom" shall see fl
TO endorse their views by an election o.
their candidate.

There is aertain analogy between the
political career Of benjamin L Butler
and the business career Of the late james
Fisk, Jr. Both were %unscrupulous as to
he means by which to accomplish their
purposes both believe in rewarding their
friends aud Furnishing their enemies both
performed the most outrageous acts with
u certain dash aud regard to theatric eff.
feet both affected to te good fellows and
objects Of persecution. The constitution
ol mind OF these two social moustroslties
enabled each Of them to gain favor among
men of the baser sort, and both OF them
obtained qualification by campaigning with
their followers. The ditierauce between
the two men consists in this-that Fisk's
ambition was largely satie6ed with the
spoliation Of his peiebbor's goods, while
Buffers chief satisfaction is 10 despoiliDe
his neiphbor Of his reputation New

Legislature Of Vermont.

The Legislative proceedings as usual

materials which if properly worked
Over and reported becomes interesting

overhauled, are difficult of comprehen-

On Monday, as usual, but little was
done and many of the members were
absent. A few burlesque bills were Of

Of course they received their fate at an
early hour, but something was accom-

standing In the association, license to
sell malt and vlnous and alcoholic IL
quors for medicinal purposes was strug-
Cling with the general committee all
through the week, and had not been

more than probable that the "limited

the committe.
