The more powerful is that cootrolled by Sim- mons, Dickinson & Co., the reputed boua-fide proprietors of the onginal Kentucky tottary. The etber organization is an omigrowth from the Simmons combination, and is 2 consaguence of a quarrc! barween the mansgers of the lottery bus- iness of tho comntry.

A isver has confidence that a certein nnaber will drown from the whee! first, and he invests 10 eeots npon bis opinion. Stould bo win he is paid £5, or at the rate of 50 couts for every peu~ oyiovested. He ix at liber!y to select auy g'a- 00 of the fourtern for his number, and if the zumber be drawn 1u that station Le'w paid the #ime premium,—tbat is, 5,000 per cent on his ia- vemment. Now, it cao rcad.ly be seen that if the drawing were fairly made tha player would have Lut obe chance inseveniy-tnoto wiu, but as the drawings are made he has no chance what- ever. The numbers are not drawn from the ‘wheel untl the books of all the sgen's have been received at headquarters, and the tig plays ooted.

THE SEPREHIE COURT VACANCY. Zo the Editor of The Chicaqo Tribune: Caicaco, Nov. 20.—The editorial of Jast San- day upon the *‘Sapreme Court Vacancy ” has im- Fre=sed iisell upon the minds of msoy of your readers in this part ot the Judicial District. In- deed, it could not be otherwise, a8 the force of the suggestions contained thorein are apparent tosll. Itis proper that the vacancy should be filled from the Chicago Dsr. The selection £hould be made from » class of men distinguish- od for {ifeir legal ability, iutellectoal sitain- ments, probity of character. and iotegrity of purpose, that will insare the respeot aed regmd of the profession at large, and the confidenco and esteem of the people of the entire State. He should likewise be a man who hes already Jattained & cowpetency, and one who could devote his time and {slents to tho welfaze of the peojle, for the good which would lie jn the rosition, as well an for the bouor aitached to the ofice. Amid all the gursuits ol Lfe there isno sphere of ussful- ness more £rand, TO calliug more exalted, than that of a just Judze. In great conjunctions of affsics, when the 1n:erests uf & COmMmoDity are st siake, or even when the rights of as bumble citizen ara smperiled, the protecting acm of jus- tice is eprand alike over them, aud they rest se- cura beuesth tho Bbiudow of & court whose throne 1s more exalted. and whose mandate is higbar, than that of a King. Lut this only nhen e cffica 18 dlled by men worthy the confidencs of the eopie. Yonr suggestion that the question of politics should not cnter the contest is & zood one. In sclecting a caodidate for the Sanreme Court va- cancy the same course shonld be pursaed as in the late elecuon in Cook County for Judees of the Circait and Superior Conrts.
