The City Judge.
A gentleman who does not can*
to be quoted, but ono whose word
is as good as a bond, says that the
governor will make the appoint
ments forci’y judge here tomor
row.
He stat-s that he has it from
parties who know, and that it will
surely be given out Monday. This
is a question in which Romans are
very vitally interested Just who
will be the fortunate man is not
known, and probably no one just
diow except the general, and a few
(©there.
But the man will be known for
certain tomorrow.
Never too old.
