Silent becomes boisterous, and demands l his seat, and properly qualities, the Judge, who has been on the Bench for the last s years, and has generally given satisfaction, 1 will step down, and allow his successor to ] step up. The Judge does not feel very sad | over the change about to take place, for the l simple reason that he can make much more | in the practice of his profession, than he could by retaining his present position.
 Charles Silent, of San Jose, Cal, as will be seen by our telegraphic dispatches to- odH, uuc bCCh apl'oiutCoA AcStSiotC VI t Arizona, rice Judge Tweed, whose time is | about to expire.

Of his successor we know nothing, but presIme | him to be good man and lawyer, or he | would not receive the endorsements he does.
