I cumbent of the judicial office would be indepen- a. I dent and free of all temptation and inducement Worth County Election. to consult popularity in his official action. It is a truth that out of all with whom we have conversed on that subject, not one have we found, so far, who is not in favor cf a change. The meagre vote at the late election shows the in difference of the People to the ballot for Judges; and we arc confident the vote would not have been half so large as it was, but for the contest on the county officers: The people don’t want to elect the Judges, and the choice between can didates of fair standing and qualifications, in the absence of an active canvass, (which by tacit as sent of all parties seems to be admitted as un dignified and improper.) would not of itself bring out half a vote, The intelligent people of this State see and feel that the only interest they have in this matter lies in the securing of a learned, wise and impartial justiciary; and that that system of appointment which places their judges in the most independent position, and at the farthest possible remove from all bias, is the best one—the safest one—the most favorable to the preservation of their rights and the carry ing out of the popular will—in the correct ad ministration of the laws enacted by the repre sentatives of the People. This is the true dem ocratic interest in this matter. As a weak, bi assed, partial or corrupt judiciary may entirely thwart, misconceive, or pervert the public will as embodied in the law, so its best maintenance and defence lie in the policy best adapted to se cure and preserve entire judicial independence, impartiality and integrity. Now, will any one pretend that a popular elec tion of Judges is that policy? Who can believe it? Here the convicted offender against the laws punishes the Court which has convicted him—the loser in a civil suit avenges his fan cied wrongs—the negligent juror—the uncivil witness—the pert lawyer—remember and resent their indignities. A single suit, involving a common interest in a county or neighborhood, (such cases there are and have been in Georgia, as well as elsewhere,) is decided under sanction of a loss of the county vote and a loss of office. Will an old bell-weather of a family flock who suitor humble yeoman who lias noth ing and can control nothing but his single vote? We say he may do it—before a stem and im partial judge accustomed to look deeply into the workings of his own heart and to guard every avenue against the insidious and subtile sugges tions of self-interest lie may do it But hu man nature is tollable, and the popular electoral system offers a constant suggestion of self-inter est in the administration of justice, to a mind capable of its approaches. It is no true demo cratic system, in its natural tendency, if not in its inevitable results. Said a Judge in our hearing the other day— “I believe every man I fined, voted against me’- and there is the whole argument in a nutshell Under iavor, then, of the Pilot, we will still hope and trust to see no more judicial elections. Let the people delegate the power of appoint ment to the Governor, and to the Senate to re vise and consider his choice.

In brief; the case stands thus: At the North the great interest of manufactu ring is suffering under a lively competition with foreign products, while the secondary food-pro ducing interest is depressed by the operation of plentiful bread crops in Europe. In the South, our only great agricultural interest was never in better condition and money nevermore plen tiful Now, this reversal of the ordinary condit ion of affairs is what Mr. Cooper and the iron masters can’t abide.

They propose to revive their great indus trial interests by a higher and specific tax on foreign commodities, a tax which will be felt that it was a regularly called meeting by a res olution passed by the City Council of Macon at its last meeting on Tuesday night, the 4th inst The Hon. Thos.

Every man of good common sense may, if he pleases become rich. The reason why we some times see that men of the greatest capacities are not so, is either because they despise wealth in comparison to something else; or at least are not content to be gening an estate unless they may do it their own way, and at the same time enjov all the pleasures and gratifications of life. “BUDGETT.” The Athens Southern Watchman comes to as greatly enlarged and improved. Queen Victoria. “ That Alexandria Victoria should ever have ascended the English throne is. perhaps, the only remarkable event in her life. George III left five sons, the elder, of coarse, the heir, the others in all likelihood forever debarred from the succession. The heir, the Prince of Wales, reigned as George IV, and died child less, the second son, the Duke of York, died without reigniDg, and likewise childless; the third son, the Duke of Clarence reigned as William IV, and died childless; the fourth son, Edward Duke of Kent, died without reigning, bat left one child, a daughter ; and to her thus remote from the inheritance, des cended the patrimony of the House of Hano ver and Brunswick. “When Victoria was six years old her moth er appointed the Rev. George Davys her pre ceptor ; and his fidelity and zeal proved the wisdom of her choice. The Baroness Lehzcn was associated with him as instrnctress. Up to her eleventh year the princess was totally stand the recommendation of a city subscription of $200,000 was renewed with only somewhere about ten or fifteen dissenting votes. People would best fit her to wear the crown. With out overtasking her mental aud physical en ergies, her instructors plied her with every species of knowledge by which a Queen might profit. They read together the numerous treatises which had been written—for the most part in the Continental languages—upon the education ofa princess. „ . . , . - She was familiar, with the lives and actions j f"*®** u P° n to address the meeting, which call j 0 f a y w fi 0 had conferred honor on the haman seem to be very much in earnest about the mat- j *°° k>te - •h*y might regret, ter.

How Webster Popped the Question. A correspondent of The Boston Courier, tells how Daniel Webster offered himself to the wo man of his choice: “Mr. Webster married the woman he loved, and the twenty years .which he lived with her brought him to the meridian of his greatness.— An anecdote is current on this subject, which is not recorded in the hooks. Mr. Webster was becoming intimate with Miss Grace Fletcher, when the skein of silk getting in a knot, Mr. Webster assisted in unraveling the snarl—then looking up to Miss Grace, he said: ‘ Wc have untied a knot; don’t you think wc could tie one Y Grace was a little embarrassed, said not a word, but in the course of a few minutes she tied a knot in a piece of tape and handed, it to Mr. W.

Col. Alexander’s re marks were directly to the point, and satisfied almost the entire audience that his arguments were irrefutable. CoL J. H. II Washington, then offered the following substitute which he defended briefly, hut earnestly. Resolved, That the only proper way to se cure a fair expression of public opinion as to the policy of the city subscribing to any Rail Road project, U by ballot Be it therefore Resolved, that the Mayor and Council be requested to to open a poll, first giving ten Uayy ihkicc tnere- ol in which all the citizens of Macon, other than those'who only pay a poll Tax, he requested to cast their votes for or against subscribing to the Macon and Brunswick Rail Road. Before taking the vote on the substitue, J. II. R. Washington, explained in reference to one of its provisions, that he was not in iavor of ex cluding from political rights, those who pay a poll tax only, nor would he prevent them from voting at Elections generally, but this being a local nutter, confined wholly to the question of raising money, he thought it just and proper, that it should lie left to those who would have I’nclc Sam stopped Payment.

Planters who arc now generally much inter ested in the subject of the concentrated fertili zers, will be attracted by the advertisement of “KcUh-weH’s Manipulated Guano,” a composi tion of about onc-half Peruvian Guano and one- half Phosphate of Lime, which is maintained to be better than the pure guano, whose huge pro portion of Aiqmonia is too stimulating to the soil This is the opinion of the Southern Plan ter, published at Richmond, and is concurred in by a good many of the Agricultural Essayists who have written about the compound, which is obtaining a wide notoriety and use in Mary land, Virginia and tile Carolinas. The Phos phate also adds to the permanent wealth of the soil while the combination lias all the stimu lating properties of guano necessary to the pro duction of crops, or for the good of the land.— We recommend our readers to trv it.

Whittle, urged the meeting to vote down the substitute offered by CoL Washing ton—that it was illegal—contrary to the City race, whether as sovereigns, statesmen, schol ars, inventors, discoverers, benefactors, poets or divines. While yet in her teens, she spoke English, French and German, with equal flu ency, she read Italian and translated Virgil and Horace; she was a proficient in mathe matics, and showed decided talent in all bran ches connected with the science of numbers. Accomplishments were not neglected. The princess danced, saDg and sketched from na ture. She laid aside a portion of her pocket money to aid in extinguishing tbe indebted ness of her father. A sound religious train ing lay at tbe base of tbe fabric thus reared, and Victoria was made to realize that, as she was to reign over a nation professedly Chris tian, she must prove, by her private conduct, and in her domestic life, her right to the glo rious title of Defender of the Faitli. On the 7th day of July, Victoria made her first public, appearance as sovereign of the nation. She prorogued Parliament m person, addressing the members of the two chambers from the throne in the House of Lords. Her pallor betrayed her emotion, bnt her manner was calm and composed, and her bearing at once childlike and royal. Her voice was dis tinct. though tremulous.

Victoria kneeled and deToutedly implored tbe Diviue guidance for herself and u blessing for her people. From that time forward she has discharged with ex emplary fidelity every duty which devolved upon her as a Queen, and has sought to en large the sphere of her duties as a woman, that by discharging those also she might offer a model to the mothers, wives and sisters of her 1857. / .

But don tbe in a hurry about the matter. Don’t get into a feverish longing for marriage. It isn’t creditable to you. Especially don’t im agine that any disappointment in love which takes place before you are twenty-one years will be of any material damage to you. flu truth is, that before a man is twenty-five years old he does not know what he wants"himself So don’t be in a hurry. The more ofa man you liecome. the more manliness you become capable of ex hibiting in your association with women, the better wife you will be able to obtain; nnd one year’s possession of the heart and hand of a re ally noble specimen of her se.\, is worth nine hundred and ninety-nine year’s possession ofa sweeter creature with two ideas in her head, and nothing new to say about either of them. “Better fifty years of Europe than a cycle o.

Go into female society if you can find that which will improve you, but not otherwise. You can spend your time better. Seek the society of good men.
