THE VACANCY IN THE SUPREME

We publish In another column at
article from the New York sun relative
to the vacancy on the bench of the Su
preme Court Of the United States
which will be created by the raHigna,
zion of Justiee Davis, who Ia expected
to retire after the 4th of March next
and take his seat In the Senate.
The fact that tho duty OF filling this
vacancy will devolve upon presiden,
Tilden, who IL indebted for his election

ceived ffem the Southern States, makes
II opportune al this moment for us to
put forward the claim Of the South to
recognition on the Supreme Bench
not on political grounds, but because of
the fact that. aince the death of Justice
Wayne, Of Georgia, which occurred
some ten years ago. this section Of the
country has had no representative in
that court.
The injustice and sectionalism which
charaeterize the present composition of
that august tribunal, and the unprece.
Gented spectacle Of n National Supreme
Court, composed exclusively of North
ern and Western men, arc calculated
TO weaken tho influence Of. and the
respect which should be entertained for,

tions OF the country.
The jurisdiction Of the Federal Courts
has been 30 much enlarged since the
war, and the efforts of tho dominant
party, during the process Of reoonstruc.
ton, to "preserve the fruits Of that
war, have given rise to SO much politi-
cal legislation which injuriously
affects the South and must receive
its final Interpretation In the Supreme
Court OF the United States. that II IL a
matter of the commonest justice that
this portion of a reunited country
should have voice In the judicial ooun-
ellis which determine questions OF vital
importance to its liberties and material
interests. For this reason we feel justi.
fed In insisting that the siust claims
OF the South be considered by Gov.
Tilden In his appointment OF success
scr to Justice Davis: and IL this claim
be recognised, we earnestly hope that
the appointment will be made from
among the many lawyers of signal
ability who grace the bar Of this city
and would adorn the bench Of any
country.
The peculiar system Of our jurispru-
dence, so widely different from that Of
the Northern and Western States,
where the common law still prevails in
most of its fundamental principles and
technical features, makes the presence
on the bench OF the Supreme Court OF
one Of our civil law jurists almost ab-
solutely Indispensable to the just and
proper determination OF appeals
from our Federal courts and
writs OF error to the Supreme
Court OF the State. And il the
appointment be made from Louisiana,
we think no one will deny that the new
Justice should be chosen from among
the distinguished lawyers Of this city.

Each room with ivy leaves is dresr,
And every post with holly.
Though some churls our mirth repine
Round your foreheads garIands twiue;
Drown sorrow in a cup Of wine,
Ard let US all be merry.
Now all our neighbors' chimneys smoke,
And Christmas blocks are burning;
Their ovens they with baked meats choke,
And all their spits turning;
Without the door let sorrow lie;
And If for cold it hap 10 die,
Wen bury't in a Christmas pie,
And evermOre be merry
Now every lad is wond'rous trim,
And no man minds his labor
Our lasses have provided them
A bagppe and tabor;
Young men and maids, and girls and boys,
Give life to one another's joys;
And you anon shall by their noise
Perceive that they are merry.
Rank misers now do sparing shun;
Their hall Of music soundeth;
And dogs thence with whole shoulders run,
So all things there abOundeth.

With crowdy -muttons out Of France;
And Jack shall pipe and Jill shall dance.
