The elec lion of Judges ol the Supreme Court- Uijder this caption the Federal Union takes ocea e'mn to speak in laudatory terms of the Judges recently elect*<l to the Supreme Court. We heartily endorse • ts eul*'giee. believing them to be just and well merited. to the Hon. lienry L. Benuing, coming immediate* jy fn.m among us, and well known to us, we need not say how richly he deserves all that the article expresses All <*f our citizens arc gratified—highly gratified at his election Whigs as well as Democrats—and we are proud to know that as able a Bar as Columbus boasts, no ope could have been sel cted from among i;s mem- ■ bers m re fully endorsed, or more truly combining those faculties which so eminently befit the highest judicial functionary. The Federal Union expr sses itself as follows : “On Tuesday last, Hoh Ebenezer Starnes, of Augusta, was elected to fill the vacancy occasioned by the rasjgna tionol Judy;e Warner ; and Hon. Henry L. Be. ning, o* Columbus, was elected forthe tail term in the place of Judge Nisbet. The very large majority by which Judge Starnes was elect-d. is a mei ted tribute to his ability and wo'th, and we but give expression to the general feeling, when we say, that the offke and man are botli honor* and by the selection. In relation to Judge Nisbel.the dominant party had no [ pe sonal feeling* in contributing to his defeat ; they foil | that, according to the precedent which was a-tablished 1 when tfie t’ourt was fir.-torgauized by the party to which j Judge Nisbct them belonged, and still belongs, viz.: taking • two of the Judges from the Whig party, and giving the j femociats one,there was nothii g impr* per or unwise in j applying the same rule in the present instance; more paiti- j cufarly,as there were many dirt: initialled gent emen aspir- I ingtothe pst, whose claims had not been respected so j long as the Whig party were in the majority. Judge Benning is a man ol fine legal abilities, and natur- j ally endowed with a high order of talent ; a gentleman of I fine manners, possessing phydcsi abilities equal to any j amount of labor, and an amiable demeanor that cannot fail i to make him popular as a Judge/’ Vlabama Legislature. Judge Chilton was re-elected on Tuesday last by ; combination of both Houses, to anew term on the Su- j pn me Bench. He received the veues of all but one j member. An effort to go into an election for U. S. Senators ‘ was made but defeated. Theieare about a dozen can- j didates. The Whigs seem to be very friendly towards j Fitzpatrick and Lyon. The business of the State seems to be progressing j with commendable diligence, and many bills, mostly j local, have been passed. The Governor’s .\Laeago a very lengthy docu ment, which we will refer to at another time. To the Teachers ol Alabama. You .are earnestly solicited to attend a Convenven- j tion of Teachers to be held at Montgomery on the 6th of December next. The object of the Convention is to take into consideration the practicability of aay stem of Genkral Education, and devise such means as may seem most calculated to produce it. Several gentle men of distinguished ability have been invited to ad dress the Convention. The cause in one of such im 1 portanee as demands some sacrifice at the hands of; those who are aiming to improve the condition of our j country by imparting instruction to our youth. Done by order of the Executive Committee of the j Alabama State Teaeher’ci Association. BENJ. T. SMITH, Chairman. Dadeville, Ala., Nov. 6, 1853. The Steamboatmen and the Planter. Quite a strike has taken place on the Alabama river j by the SteamboaUnen whi h has caused the business of j Mobile to stiff r greatly. The merits of the affair are thus j Miccintly set forth in the Mobile Evening Netcs. The Steamboat Controversy, At the* earnest request of a number of the principal j mere hauls of our city, we this day reproduce the various i articles, bearing upon the steamboat question. The plan- j ters and the up country merchants are, not unnaturally, . greatly ludignaut at what they supposed was an attempt ! on tlte part of the Mobile merchant* to impose a heavy j tax upon them, at a time, too, w hen they could least afford j it. Tortinnve this impression is the anxious desire of our business commuuity, and we trust the wide circula tion of our epitottie of the whole subject will have the de- j sired effect. From the perusal, our country readers will ( perceive tl.at the merchant and the public of Mobile op- j posed the movement from the beginning, and do so yet. They are perfectly willing that th- steamboat ow ner shall i charge a fair rate for him *ervk-, nod ilicy do not qmn- j turn Ins right to fix h a own rate of charges; but what | they are not wilting be should d> is, to make a sudden ! advance of 50 percent upon the price they had previous- I ly been content to ask and receive. Against this they ! have protested, and sti.l protest,and they w ish their friends \ in the interior to know and understand this. For ourselves we trust our part in the matter is com- I pleted, we (unlike some others ) did ‘ feel called upon to | discuss the question,” it being one of \ital concern to our : city and having now laid the whole case before the peo. j pie, Khali h ave it in their hands for settlement, only hop- ! iug an amicable arrangement will quickly bo effected. By j the o uise we have taken, or subscription list ans adver- I rising eolumns have suffered in one direction—but we are ] proud to eon less the loss has been more than counterbal anced by the acquisition of new subscribers and adver tisement* from thepunlio at large. Gov. Foote —The Vicksburg Sentinel , referring to the defeat of Gov. Foote in the late Election who had combined with the Whigs, comfort* him in the following manner: We are surprised to learn, that our Governor takes the defeat of the late coalition very much to heart. If our information be correct our classical frfend must-have read the Tuseuian Disputations, and “My Novel,” to very little purpose. For our part, we cannot see why he should not be as merry as a cricket, or a free toad in a rainy day Now that tlie Union party has bursted, hie Excellency ought to feel as happy as the man did w hen the Nahant \ bank failed. He ran home in mortal terror to see if he \ had any of its paper, and was tickled to death when he ! found he had no money on that bank nor any other. We j hope the Governor will cheer up. This thing of dying i of a broken heart should be ietft to fair maidens disap- j pointed in love, and verdant young gentlemen who write j wo ul ballads to their mistress’ eye brows and sigh like j a furnace. There is a great deal ot good sense in what I that strong minded woman Mrs. Macbeth, once said, and we commend it to the consideration : “Things without remedy Should be without regard : what’s done, is done,” The Very Lateet—lmportant! The following telegraphic despatch was received at j Liverpool just before the sailing of the steamer Arabia : I Pence more Promising—Another Sole from the four : Satinas. —The Earl of Westmoreland, British Miaisur at the Austrian Court, is said to have received an assu j ranee from Constantinople that the representatives of the | Four Powers had succeeded iu their efforts to bring the } Divan to pacific sentiments, consequently the orders sent { to Omar Pacha enjo ned him not to commence hostilities. 1 the Ainhassadors having satisfied the I)ivau that the Czar has premised to make no offensive movement whilst wait* I ing the result of th • effort at Constantinople in favor of peace. But what was spoken most of on change was an edito rial in the dovrndl de Frankfort, which evidently pro ceeded from the Austrian Cabinet, and in with it was stated that Austria resumes the part of mediator, having fresh and positive assurances from the Cabinet of Russia that the Emperor has no desire to encroach on the in tegrity of the Ottoman Empire, or attack in any way the sovereign rights of the Sultan. Under these circumstances the Austrian Cabinet again unites with the other cabinets in the endeaver to prevent war because it now sees a reasonable prospect that medi ation wdl not be fruitless. Tin* Paris Tress too states, on the authority ot a Con- < stantinople letter of the 21st Oct., that Redsehid Pacha | has consented to a fresh draught of a note by Lord Rad- j el iffe, based on the Czar's admission at Olmuiz. The conflicts, however, at Grurgoes. iu winch the t Turks were defeated, and near Kalafat to which the Rus elans had to retreat, are confirmed. A conflict was deem ed inevitable in the direction of Krojawe. Extraordinary Trotting Match. One Hundred Miles Performed in the Wonderful Time of S Hours, 55 Minutes , and 53 Seconds. Centrknille Course, L. 1., Nov. 12. j A gentleman betting SI,OOO against $3,000 that he would produce a horse that would trot 100 miles in 9 hours, and naming a powerful bay gelding. The .annals of the turl tarnish no parallel to it, as the time made is by far the bst on record. Fanny Jenks trotted in 1844 on Bull’s Head Course in Albany, 101 miles in 0 hours, -13 minute, and 23 seconds. In June 1834 a pair of horses belonging to Mr. Theall, trotted 100 miles, on the Centreville Course within .0 hours. Tom Thumb per formed, on the 2*l of February 18 9, on Sun bury in n England, 100 ni lee in 10 hours and 7 inmutes, in harness. The horse was started at 20 minutes to 9 o'clock and was driven by Geo. Spicer who was relieved by James McMahon. The betting was SIOO to S4O that the horse would not perform the feat. The track was n*t in good order, on account of the rain of the previous night ; the day was cloudy with now and then a shower of rain. At .he end of h e “rent fl at the horse was not at all d's ressed.— N Y. Tribune. The noble animal, ho*vev. r, has since died. lie w s taken to the slab e bled and blank |*d very heavily which is supposed to have produced his death. An Attempt to llurder. Kour negroes, belonging to Col. Joseph A. L. Lee. of this county, attempted to murder Mrs. Lee a few days since, in the absence of her husband. They had been administering a slow poison, but finding this inef feetal, they went to Jier room at night and had nearly sueoeded in smothering her, when she had presence ol mind to arouse her little son by pinching him, whose ootery alarmed some faithful servants, who came to Iter rescue just in time to save her from a hrut.-d death. Tile negroes have confessed their crime and tire now in jail, awaiting their trial. They do not itnpute their evil and signs to any unkind treatment on tile part of thr if mistress. o*\Ve refer our readets to the advertisement of G D.

OCT The Knickerbocker relates the following : | characteristic anecdote of Tom Marshall: ! “When Pilcher waft haranguing about ‘"his ! father having been a poor man,“his father was i a cooper,” and more of that sort of thing, Mar- j i shall said he would admit the gentleman’s father : : was a poor man ; perhaps he had been a coop- { j er, but ifhe was, (pointing to Pilcher), he had i j put a mighty poor head to one of his whiskey ; : barrels!” Ttrn Mej'icnn Officials shot by order o 1 Sonia Anna.— lt is stated in the Philadelphia Ameri j can that a letter has been received at Washing ’ ton, from an army officer on the Rio Grande ’ announcing that, by order ol friinta Anna. Luis j de la Rosa formerly Mexican Minister to the United States, and Gen. Tome, one of Presi dent Arista’s Ministers ol War, have both been ! shot recently, somewhere near the northern j boundary of Mexico. De la Rosa was Minis ter of Foreign Affairs immediately after the ca- • j pitulation of the City ot Mexico, and was the i I immediate instigator of Santa Anna’s expulsion i from the country, and wrote a letter informing | him of his disgrace. The other victim was also j I implicated in the same transaction. Roth were : shot summarily, without pretence of trial. This is considered as an evidence of Santa Anna's determination to sustain himself as dictator by the same means he has heretofore used Ececutirc Appointments —The C&vernor has ap i pointed as his private Secretaries, William Steele, of j Raldwin, Boswell B.
