Meanwhile, the discussion will elicit many bold facts whick will engage the attention of every one interested in the condition and prosperity of Great Britain and the United Kingdom. We shall not be surprised ifthe discussion should lead to some very salutary im- provements on the present oppressive system whieh now enriches the highest diguitaries of the Church of England—naturally so styled—-and which has a greater preponderance in the State organization than the East Indie Company, the army, or the navy —all of which are institutions created for the pur- pose of supplying places and emoluwest for the younger sons ofthe aristocracy.

If it possesses power to pass such a law as this, it can with equal propriety legislate that the male population shall not wear breeches any more, or that the ladies must doff the skirts.

E.ection or Jupoes.—Under the new constitu. tion of Maryland, the people of that State will soon be called upon to elect their judges. uri, New York, and other States, have an elective juti- ciary, and, to this time, we have not heard of any evil or injury resulting from the system. We can- not, however, approve of the judiciary being clec- tive. Wecould give a hundred good reasons for our opinion. Our fears are for the future. We very much fear that the judicial ermine will sooner or later be beemeared with the slime of partyisia and factionism. We would like to see the judi- , elary separate, distinct, and independent of ail par- ties, and we would also like to see them better paid than they are, and dependent for their offices on their own good conduct, and that alone, until, ia | the ordinary course of nature, they become incaya- | like to see every judge of culates sentiments destructive of all government, | endorsing such ridiculous legislation, and upholding those who adopt it, as public benefactors. If the people of Maine are moulded in the com- mon form, they will either insist upon the imme ate repeal of this ridiculsus law, or disregard it It would be useless for them to have « constitution, and laughgble to claim being a free and indepen- dent sovereignty, if they cannot, without viola the law, drink a mint julep or a glass of poster on 8 Warm day. Out upon such fanaticism. Tue New Yorx Democratic Beeson. | late old hunker and barnburner <plit in the New \ ork democratic family, which has caused so mach tribulation in Tammany, especially on the night of the last State election, and so much weeping and wailing among the candidates for the spoile this distressing split on the Wilmot proviso, promises to be closed up completely in the approachirg can- vaes. It was nearly effected last year. Now, all hands are just about hungry enough to ur the sake of dividing the spoils. However useless a war upon the Canal bill, at this stage of the gane, there is no doubt it has operated to harmonize the “unterrified democracy,” and to predi-pose them to come into line for the November elections. It may be amusing to «ce the old fox of Lindenwald, end Governor Mares, and Prince Joun, andiovernor Dickinson fraternizing over the same dish of hom- mouy, and cracking jokes over their late ridiculous ' S| ble of holding office. Instead of a paltry salary of fifteen hundred or two thousand dollars, we would a Superior Court inthe receipt of at least five thousand doliars a year, so that he could save at least three thousand dollars a year, and at the same time support himself and family comfortably. There is such a thing as being too democratic—too republican. Burke once seid, in his seat in the British Parliament, to the effect that there might be a corrupt king, a corrupt Common:, and a corrupt House of Lor but that, ae long as the judiciary were honest, the liberties of , the people of England were safe. Those noble sentiments are applicable to usin the United States, Our judiciary should not be dependent for their offices on the whims, or successes, or fuilures of party. They should be above purty: and if it is desired to make them subservient to faction, no better plan could be devised than to make them elective, with poor ealwries, and dependent onthe weathes-vanes of politivs for their continuance ia * office. We bave aot experienced, as yet, aily bau , pie; fumily jars at Syracuse and Herkimer; but it will | be something for cool, sober, serious, cogitation, by the various and curious little cliques and coterics of the whig party.

New York has grown so fast that it has swallowed up the old distinetions of lively and dull, full and empty seasons.

Mid" summer ns it is, and all the gaudy butterflies of fashien expanding their muslin wings at the water: ing places, yet we do pot remember aver to have seen the city more densely throrged, nor more gay and lively. Indeed, the only drawback is the rea! and very great difficulty strangers find in getting any sort of accommcdations. But while the entire lower quarter of the city is thus overcrowded, there are several spacious, cle- gant and airy hotels in the upper and more delight- ful portions, where there are plenty of handsv1ae and luxurious accommodations. The residents of these hotels are mostly families who are now out of | town; and it is surprising to us that the rucH of strangers, £0 troubled to find bed and board down town, should not have penetrated to these julet and luxurious abodes, where all the material « forts of life are dispensed upora libern! seaie, Lhe | distance is no important obstacle, for when # traveller is fairly encabbod with wife and ca ! | bag, it makes very ttle difference whether he rile | half a mile or two miles: while once fairly en- «the | Sconced, the omnibuss# aud railears furuish every poesible facility for communicating with the contres | of business.
