Constitution. will undoubtedly he erected
intoa seaerste district. .as it contains 10000
Inhabitants. the requisite number for such
q district. Under the new Constitution
the Office is abolished in such districts, as
will be seen by referring to the last clause
Oft 9th section Of Article >, ander the
head of Judiciary, as follows: "The office
of Associate Judge, not learned in the law,
is abolished in counties forming separate
districts but the several associate JUDGES
in Office. when this Constitution shall be
adonted. shall serve for their uncXWrcd
terms
In regard TO a vacancy the 25lh section
provides that
"Tho vacancy happening hy death, re-
siguation or otherwise, in any court OF re-
cord. shall be filed by appointment by the
Governor. To continue I'LL the first Monday
Of January next succeeding the hr6t general
election. which shall occur three or more
months after the happening OF such vacan-
cy."

after a thorough trial by inumerabe living
witnesses, has proved itself the Medicine o!
the Age 1t is an internal and external
remedy. One positive proof of its efficacy
is. that its sales have constantly increased
and wholly upon its own merits. The ci-
feet Of the
PAIN-KILLER
upon the patient when taken internally, in
case of Cold, Cough, Bowel Complaint,
Cholera, Dysentery, and other allllctlonS OF
the system, has been truly wonderful, and
has won for it q name among medical pre-
narati0ns that can never be forgotten. Its
success in removing pain, as an external
remedy. in cases of Burns, Bruises,
Sprains, Cuts, Stiugs OF Insects, and other
causes of suffering has secured for it such
a host of testimony, as an inialiible remedy,
that it will be handed down to pCstcrity as
one of the greatest medical discoveries of
the nineteenth century.
THE PAIN-EILLER
derives much Of its popularity from the sim
