The JudgeShip.

We saw it sta ed in u card in the Bal
timore Gazette of Friday las. written from
Cox's Station in this county, that Mr.. vi
Wan Brent wou likely become Mr.. Stones
colleague on the Republican ticket for
the position of Associate Justice of this
circuit. We have not as yet heard any
intimation from Mr.. Brent that such is
is his intention, though his views on the
question Of the juageship as expressed
through his paper. leaves little room for
doubt that such course would be dis
tasteful to him. BY his reasoning he
might readily RIM on the ticket with MIR.
Stone, provided he was not nominated by
a convention, without sacrificing his prin-
ciples, which he holds to be lfemOcratic.
AS for US, we too, think the iudgeship
ought to he kept out of politics, but as
long as it has been drawn into it by IA force
of circumstances we do not think that any
Democrat could consis emily be a candi-
date on the Republican ticket and adhire
to his first principles. If elected the feel
ing of gratitude alone which he ought to
have for he party that favored him should
be strong enough to make him desire to
favor them, and as the party lines are
drawn in this county, he would certainly
ever after be regarded as an 'Impublican"
at least by majority Of the party that
elected him. And again, in our opinion
such course would be ii parallel to the
"Independent" movement in this county
of 1878, and that course Was severely con-
demned by our learned brother, as the
files OF this paper will show However
as we said in the beginning, we have heard
nothing from Mr.. Brent that would lead
US to suppose that he intends to pursue
such course what we have written was
suggested to us by seeing the atoremen-
toned CART, al: / we only write it as a
matter of news.

AN IRON INQUIRY.
A Small Question which Has Assumed
Big Proportions.

Secretary of the Treasury Window,
with Assistant Secretary French and Mr.. James, of
the customs division, to-day gave audience to
delegation OF manufacturers Of iron respecting the
duty on plate and channel iron, the question at
issue being whether such iron is subject to duty as
rolled or hammered iron at one and one -halfcents
per pound, or as a manufacture of iron not other
wise provided for. The following gentlemen COM
posed the delegation: James l. Bennett, c. B. Her
ron, ID. B. Oliver, P. H. Laufman, w. d. Wood, F.
T. Moorhead, and Joseph D. Weeks, of Pittsburg;
G. M. McCauley, of Harrisburg; D. F. Houston, OF
Chester; David Reeves, Alan Wood, jr, Carroll S.
Tyson, and George W. Cope, of Philadelphia; NJ. c.
McIlyaine, ofReadng; Joseph l. Bailey, of Pine
Iron Works, Pennsylvania; j. L. Pennock,
of Coatesville, aud ". H. Morris, of Pottstown.
The importers of channel and plate iron had been
notified to attend, but none present, those
importing channel iron not being sufficiently in
terested III the case and those importing plate
iron having been prevented from attending by
sickness. On the part of the manufacturers
speeches were made by MeSsrs. Houston, who
acted as chairman ofthe delegation, Tyson, Weeks,
Bennett, and Oliver. Congressman Bayne, of
Pennsylvania, also spoke in favor of the
manufacturers Among those present were Sen
ators Mitchell and Cameron, of Pennsyfvania, and
Representatives Errett, Ward and Shallenberger.
Secretary Window said that he would in few
days announce his decision with regard to chan
nel-bars, but as to plate-iron it would be neces-
sary to give the importers an opportunity to be
heard, and that the manufacturers would be mott
fed in case new testimony or arguments should
be presented by the importers which would weaken
the force of what had been heard to-day.

Our neighbor the Post has deHeloned

Our neighbor the Post has developed
into an extreme admirer of the admins
tration. Since when was this change of
heart? The issues of that paper during
the months of last year show a decided
hostility toward Mr.. Garfield, who was
charged with various high crimes and
misdemeanors, as instance, to wit:
The indications are that many Republicans, in
almost every county where that party has local
babitation and name, will find their repulsion
for the candidate of their party too strong to be
overcome. They will learn, if they have not
already been fully convinced, that, bad as Gen
eral Garfelds record is in the Credit Mobilier af
fair-where- his oath is squarely contradieted by
the committees report-it is even worse, great
deal worse, in the De Golyer iniquity They can
not ignore the facts-the indisputable ugly facts
which convict General Garfield of taking 5000
from the agent of corrupt ring, which money was
paid to him for his influence as chairman of the
Appropriations Committee.-The Post, august 10,
1850.
Now that the Post has become an ad-
ministration organ, it should certainlyre-
tract the charges made above. It should
apologize for having in the heat of politi-
cal discussion uttered that which it knew
was not true, or else give up being an
"organ."
