very unwise to bind the city
down in the manner proposed.

HUMBOLDT, TENN, May 2S.-Much
qualification is felt here over the action
of the County Convention at Trenton
to-day. The couI ty iE the home OF both
Judges Freeman and Caldwell, as
pirants for the Supreme bench. An
effort had been made by Freemau's
friends to carry the primary civil dis.
tricts for Freeman and against Csld-
well, but falling ia this, the attempt
was renewed at the County Oonven-
ton. Freman's friends were clamor.
Gus and noisy for single shot in
struct,o on, but were defeated by the
decisive vote OF ~ to 70. The con-
vention was large and representative.
The claims of the AUdIanche CORES
pondent from this county that the
county would instruct three to one
for freeman were baseless, as the Sc
quel shows.
